- Apr 2212:00 PMOur Ecological World: Oceans & WaterwaysPart of the Thinking Globally in 2025 Series. Historically, oceans and waterways have both connected and divided human interaction. This pattern continues in the contemporary ways that oceans and waterways structure global relations. Consider current debates over the ownership of the Panama Canal or how the cutting of undersea cables is wreaking havoc on both international transmission of information and global supply chains. Ocean levels are also rising and warming, threatening ocean life and nearby human communities. Join experts from the International Studies Association and the University of Connecticut in our third public virtual panel discussion on Thinking Globally in 2025 to discuss insights and resources into these simultaneous processes offered by distinct fields of academic expertise, including Environmental Studies, History, Law, Political Science, and Spanish. PANELISTS: Neil Oculi (Environmental Studies, University of Portland), Matthew McKenzie (Department of History, UConn), James O'Donnel (Connecticut Institute for Resilience and Climate Adaptation, Department of Marine Sciences, UConn), and Carmel Kristy K.J. (Gladstein Family Human Rights Institute, UConn). DISCUSSANTS: Henry Carey (Political Science, Georgia State University) and Eduardo Urios-Aparisi (Department of Literatures, Cultures and Languages, UConn).
