After four decades of reform and development, China is confronting a domestic waste crisis. As the world's largest waste-generating nation, the World Economic Forum projects that by 2030, the volume of household waste in China will be double that of the United States. Starting in the early 2000s, Chinese policymakers came to see waste management as an object of environmental governance central to the creation of "modern" cities, and experimented with the circular economy, in which technology and policy could convert all forms of waste back into resources. Based on long-term research in Guangzhou, Circular Ecologies: Environmentalism and Waste Politics in Urban China (Stanford University Press, 2024) critically analyzes the implementation of technologies and infrastructures to modernize a mega-city's waste management system, and the grassroots ecological politics that emerged in response. In Guangzhou, waste's transformation revealed uncomfortable truths about China's environmental governance: a preference for technology over labor, the aestheticization of order, and the expropriation of value in service of an ecological vision. Amy Zhang argues that in post-reform China, waste-the material vestige of decades of growth and increasing consumption-is a systemic irritant that troubles China's technocratic governance. Waste provoked an unlikely coalition of urban communities, from the middle class to precarious migrant workers, that came to constitute a nascent, bottom-up environmental politics, and offers a model for conceptualizing ecological action under authoritarian conditions.

Crypto sits at the intersection of two male-dominated industries: tech and finance.

Amy Zhang and Nancy Zhu are third-year students at Harvard Law School and the 2019-2020 Co-Presidents of the Harvard Association for Law and Business, a student organization that is not only large and busy, but also kind. (Something we're very proud of!) In this episode, we talk about their leadership philosophies, building a supportive community, how high-performing environments and fostering great culture are not mutually exclusive, challenging expectations about what a leader “looks like” and so, so much more. The HALB Leadership Podcast is presented by the Harvard Association for Law and Business (HALB) and hosted by Genevieve Antono.

In the second episode of the "Climate and Capitalism" podcast series from GMU Cultural Studies, Amy Zhang talks with Imre Szeman, University Research Chair and Professor of Communication Arts at the University of Waterloo about his work individually and as part of the Petrocultures Research Cluster concerning oil, energy, and culture. This podcast series is associated with George Mason University Cultural Studies' Colloquium Series. This year's series is called "Climate and Capitalism." The industrial revolution liberated human beings from the cycles of nature — or so it once seemed. It turns out that greenhouse gases, a natural byproduct of coal- and petroleum-burning industries, lead to global warming, and that we are now locked into a long warming trend: a trend that will raise sea levels, enhance the occurrence of extreme weather events, and ultimately could threaten food supplies and other vital supports for modern civilization. This podcast series examines the cultural and political-economic dimensions of our ongoing, slow-moving climate crisis. We engage experts from a variety of fields and disciplines to ask questions about capitalism and the environment. How did we get into this mess? How bad is it? Where do we go from here? What sorts of steps might mitigate the damage — or perhaps someday reverse it? At stake are deep questions about humanity’s place in and relationship to nature — and what our systems of governance, production, and distribution might look like in the future. — Roger Lancaster, Colloquium OrganizerLearn more about the Cultural Studies Program at GMU: http://culturalstudies.gmu.eduLearn more about the Petrocultures Research Cluster at University of Alberta: https://petrocultures.com/ Learn more about Imre Szeman: http://imreszeman.ca/Learn about Imre Szeman's collaboration on the After Oil project: http://afteroil.ca/Music: Kevin MacLeod "Acid Trumpet," used under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.
