Cross-listed:
Anthropology As a dynamic space
of livelihood, community and contestation, the city is an exciting object to
think with. As an introduction to the city, this course has two aims: to
explore some of the essential concepts of urban theory, and to study in-depth
urban experiences around the world. Topics may include the city and
marginality, urban modernity, consumption, gender and public space,
gentrification, suburbanization, transgression, and sustainability. Case
studies may be from cities such as Lagos, Paris, Mumbai, Cairo, and Rio de
Janeiro.

While the course title summarizes the broad background in which the course is anchored, the course focus is more specific. It looks to answer the question, “Can one produce local, organic food with relative environmental impunity?” Life cycle analyses repeatedly show that, on a national average level, transportation is relatively unimportant in food production’s overall environmental footprint. While this may cast serious doubts on the "local food" notion, the picture may change dramatically when organic food production is addressed, because of the absence of environmentally adverse agrochemicals from the organic life cycle. In the northeast, it's not clear, because for roughly half the year vegetable production must be housed in notoriously environmentally heavy greenhouses. In this course, we strive to rigorously and meticulously answer quantitatively the above question, using an on-campus innovatively designed greenhouse. This is a very hands-on course, with much off hours and weekend participation, which emulates (is a model miniature of) a commercial setting. The course is open to juniors and seniors from all fields of study, but scientific and math inclination is definitely needed. In particular, comfort with manipulating long lists of numbers, with no more than addition and multiplication of numbers, but lots of both, is a must.

This Bard EUS Practicum
course provides EUS students with hands-on experiences that connect theory with
practice. In the fall 2010 semester,
the Urban Practicum will be set in Kingston, NY. Students will work with the Kingston Conservation Advisory
Council and community volunteer teams on Kingston’s Climate Action Plan to make
recommendations in the 6 areas of the plan: Recycling and Solid Waste, Energy
Demand Reduction, Renewable Energy, Community Land Use Planning, Planning For
Climate Change, Green Economy Innovations.
The students will meet and work with community mentors and experts,
participate in field studies, and work with stakeholder groups to gather
input. At the end of the semester the
students will hold a public forum to present their work through narratives,
hand-drawn and GIS maps, their recommendations, and other media they develop
thus providing a body of research to the community that can be used to address
immediate concerns and help plan for the future. This course will explore the gamut of environmental justice,
economic, and urban greening questions typically covered by an urban
sustainability curriculum, as well as interdisciplinary connections within
Bard, including topics of economics, ecology, sociology, historic preservation,
urban anthropology, conservation psychology, human rights, and the arts.
