SUMMARY:Chris Hayes: The Siren's Call
DESCRIPTION:Join us in Silicon Valley as Chris Hayes discuss a single holistic framework that could wrest back control of our lives\, politics & future.\n\n\nWe all feel it—the distraction\, the loss of focus\, the addictive focus on the wrong things for too long. We bump into the zombies on their phones in the street\, and sometimes they’re us. We stare in pity at the four people at the table in the restaurant\, all on their phones\, and then we feel the buzz in our pocket. Something has changed utterly: for most of human history\, the boundary between public and private has been clear\, at least in theory. Now\, as MSNBC host and bestselling author Chris Hayes writes in The Siren’s Call\, “With the help of a few tech firms\, we basically tore it down in about a decade.” \nHayes says “attention capitalism” has assaulted our minds and our hearts\, and has reordered our politics and the very fabric of our society. He argues that we are in the midst of an epoch-defining transition whose only parallel is what happened to labor in the 19th century: attention has become a commodified resource extracted from us\, and from which we are increasingly alienated. \nAs Hayes writes\, “Now our deepest neurological structures\, human evolutionary inheritances\, and social impulses are in a habitat designed to prey upon\, to cultivate\, distort\, or destroy that which most fundamentally makes us human.” \nJoin us in Silicon Valley to hear Chris Hayes discuss a single holistic framework that could wrest back control of our lives\, our politics\, and our future. \nChris Hayes\, Host. “All in with Chris Hayes” on MSNBC; Author\, The Siren’s Call: How Attention Became the World’s Most Endangered Resource; X @chrislhayes \n11:15 a.m. doors open & check-in12–1 p.m. program(all times Pacific Time)

SUMMARY:The Macro-Critical Aspects of Climate Change and Climate Change Policy
DESCRIPTION:Professor Kevin Gallagher will discuss his research on climate change\, financial stability\, and the role of the IMF in developing countries.\n\n\nClimate change and even climate change policies can pose significant risk to the macro-financial stability of nations. In this seminar Gallagher will present new research on this relationship. Moreover\, he will discuss how international institutions\, namely the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank\, need to play an important role in preventing and mitigating the macro-critical aspects of climate change moving forward. \nAttendees will have the chance to engage in casual discussions and gain deeper insights into Professor Gallagher’s work. Lunch will be provided.
