Theme

Once dubbed a ‘basket case’ and struggling with mass starvation, poor infrastructure, gender disparity, political turmoil, and aid dependency, Bangladesh has over the past 45 years made remarkable progress.  Changes are visible in all spheres of life, including culture, society and politics.

And yet the country still faces significant challenges, including continued inequality, climate change, rising authoritarianism, and corruption.

Set against this backdrop, this workshop will address the country's political cultures and its democracy. The workshop is part of a wider interest in political culture and democracy in South Asia.

M.Phil. Federica Coelli at Department of Economics will defend the thesis "Essays on Economic Integration and Innovation" for the PhD degree.

Title: Modeling the drift and radar backscatter signature of icebergs, by Ron Saper, Carleton University, Canada. 

Abstract: Icebergs are a source of wonder and mystery, and hide many mysteries that remain to be solved. In the quest to observe icebergs remotely and predict their behaviour, many difficulties are encountered and, at every turn, we find the expectations of engineers and researchers are frustrated. In this wide-ranging talk the many misconceptions and fallacies about icebergs are surveyed and analyzed, and their impact on scientific research and practice are explained and reflected upon. Examples are drawn from iceberg drift forecasting, remote sensing, and iceberg tracking studies.

Nicola Sartori (Department of Statistical Sciences, University of Padova, ITA) will give a talk on September 17th at 14:15 in the Erling Sverdrups plass, Niels Henrik Abels hus, 8th floor.
