Democracy and the Family |
|
[Lectures]
3 & 5 April 2001
DeVane Lecture: Nancy F. Cott, Stanley Woodward Professor of History and American Studies
The lecture on Democracy and the Family will focus on the national public values associated with private families in the twentieth-century United States. This linkage rose to a new level of emphasis during World War II, when political discourse embraced liberty, privacy, and consent as hallmarks of American families. The U.S Supreme Court set these linkages into constitutional interpretation at mid-century, fusing the protection of marital intimacy to the political principles of American democracy, and thus underpinning contemporary constitutional doctrine on privacy rights. The emotional and material comforts of home have continued to be seen as personally-chosen private freedoms and at the same time as public emblems of the nation, essential to its existence and defense. My lecture will pursue the shifting but persistent invocation of these themes through the second half of the twentieth century, in which, it could be said, American political discourse invokes a particular family form as democracy,s most appealing common denominator. Free and open to the public.

Can Religion Tolerate Democracy (and Vice Versa)? |
|
[Lectures]
10 & 12 April 2001
DeVane Lecture: Stephen L. Carter, William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Law
As we look toward the future of religion in America, we can note three intersecting trends. First, the American people are, and seem likely to remain, by far the most deeply religious people in the Western world, and religious people tend to see their world in religious terms. Second, both political philosophy and elite opinion insist on the view that religious sentiment is a contaminant in politics, and in the public conversation that should characterize liberal democracy. Third, the Supreme Court, often relied upon as the referee, has more or less quit the field.
This lecture will examine strong religious devotion from the point of view of liberal democracy, and liberal democracy from the point of view of strong religious devotion. Some of it will be history, some of it will be theory, and some of it will be constitutional law - but most of it will be practical reality, less what should be than what is, for accurately recognizing the features of the world we inhabit is necessarily prior to deciding whether to try to change them.
The basic thesis is this: As liberal democracy grows increasingly scientistic, its structures of authority will necessarily become less populist, as well as less attuned to modes of belief and of living that depart from scientistic norms. At the same time, religious will find themselves under pressure to accede to the norms of liberal culture. Each will struggle to change the other. But democracy without religion is empty of meaning, and religion without democracy is empty of faith. We fought those battles once already in America, at the dawn of the twentieth century. How appropriate to find ourselves revisiting them at the dawn of the twenty-first. Free and open to the public.

[Lectures]
17 & 19 April 2001
DeVane Lecture: John Lewis Gaddis, Robert A. Lovett Professor of Military and Naval History
This lecture will begin with a short history of American thinking on the issue of whether the United States should try to spread democracy elsewhere, focusing especially on the tension between the idea that people should determine their own forms of government, on the one hand, and belief in the superiority of American institutions, on the other. It will then examine the actual expansion of democracy throughout the world during the 20th century, with a view to determining the extent to which American actions - deliberate or otherwise - helped to bring about this result. The lecture will conclude with an assessment of prospects for this trend toward global democratisation in the 21st century, and with an evaluation of arguments for and against the proposition that sustaining it is or should be a vital national interest for the United States.

Meritocracy and Democracy: The Temptations of Mechanical, "Objective," and Impersonal Measures of Quality |
|
[Lectures]
24 & 26 April 2001
DeVane Lecture: James C. Scott, Eugene Meyer Professor of Political Science and Professor of Anthropology
"Why are nearly all modern democracies, as well as large bureaucracies, inclined to devise impersonal, mechanical, 'objective' measures for what most of us would agree are qualitative judgments? Thus, although we now understand that there are many kinds of intelligence (analytical, aesthetic, imaginative, mechanical, spatial, etc), intelligence is, for the purpose of college admissions, gauged by the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT). Many of the benefits and burdens of large projects (dams, agricultural colonization, roads) defy measurement. And yet, a single metric called 'cost-benefit analysis' which assumes that all outcomes are commensurable, is typically used to evaluate them, whether by the World Bank, Ministries of Public Works, or development consultants. Why are professors increasingly evaluated by the number of articles, books, and their "social science citation index' scores? Why are school teachers judges by the mean scores of their pupils? What are the consequences of judging the quality of people and their work in this fashion? Why, in other words, do political systems designed to peaceably resolve differences in values actually end up removing so much of the stuff of politics to the realm of technical calculation?

Dissolving Boundaries: Law, Law Jobs, and the Role of Law Schools in the New Century |
|
[Conferences]
27 April -- 29 April 2001
Yale Law School: A Tercentennial conference on legal education examines the changing boundaries of legal teaching, scholarship, and practice as Yale enters its fourth century. Internally, legal scholars and teachers are drawing methods, materials, and styles of argument from other disciplines. Externally, lawyers are joining investment bakers, business consultants, and other professionals in multidisciplinary practices. Yale's Tercentennial provides an occasion to take stock of the ways in which the traditional boundaries that defined the teaching, study, and practice of law have dissolved or been redrawn, and to inquire how law schools may best to - and actively try to shape - these changes. For more information, call 203-432-1660.

Pictures of the People: Visual Multiples and their Role as Supporting Tools for the Democratic Process |
|
[Lectures]
1 & 3 May 2001
DeVane Lecture: Richard Benson, Dean of the School of Art, Professor of Photography
The question underlying the lecture will be of the chicken and egg variety did technological innovation precede social developments, and make them possible, or did desire and need drive the development of technology.
This point can be nicely illustrated by examining the origin of printing from moveable type. The development of this invention had nothing to do with a philosophical ideal, such as disseminating knowledge broadly to a previously un-empowered audience; rather printing was invented simply to make cheaper books. Only after its establishment did the possibility of widespread education, through the production of identical multiple copies, become a possibility. Free and open to the public.
I will show pictures that illuminate 5 major technical aspects of pictures:
1 The nature of pictures as representational, symbolic or decorative.
2 The development of pictures that can move (not moving pictures, but rather ones that can travel to widespread audiences)
3 The revolutionary possibilities of identical multiple images.
4 The invention and implications of photography.
5 The steadily decreasing mass of printing matrices and multiple picture forms.
All of this is about the dissemination of knowledge through the power of pictures, and the manner in which systems such as democracy can grow to previously unheard of scales through the efficient spread of identical blocks of information through visual forms that exist in multiple copies. Free and open to the public.
