SUMMARY:Abe Global 2023 | Hedging Against Risk – Japan in an Uncertain World: Geo-Dynamics of Northeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:During the last decades of the twentieth century\, there were major changes in the world economic organization as the end of the Cold War\, the birth of the WTO\, and the off-shoring of manufacturing to lower-wage developing countries created a highly integrated global economy dependent on complicated supply chains linking production and consumption. Similarly\, sophisticated systems of data collection have distributed previously private or nationally-held data across state borders and spawned an industry around its global trafficking\, resulting in security risks to individuals\, businesses\, and nations. A series of crises over the last several years—including the Covid pandemic\, rising tensions between China and the US\, natural disasters brought on by global warming\, the war in Ukraine\, and the sanctions regime—have shaken the globalized trading system and produced shortages in goods\, energy\, raw materials\, food supplies\, and labor. Access to these resources has become a strategic bargaining chip in international relations\, as nations seek to secure supplies of food\, raw materials\, and energy in the global marketplace\, while also ensuring that sensitive data is securely protected. \nPanelists will discuss questions about how nations hedge risks in a world in which the global flow of goods\, data\, and services is regularly interrupted by natural hazards\, man-made conflict\, and political relationships within the international order. How do these global and external issues impact domestic politics\, and how do domestic issues impact the international world? And what is at stake? \nAbe Global 2023 is held in partnership with the East-West Center in Washington\, DC. \nThe Abe Fellows Global Forum (Abe Global) brings Abe Fellow research and expertise on pressing issues of global concern to broader audiences. Abe Global hosts events each year in partnership with academic and civic organizations. The forum is a partnership between the Social Science Research Council and the Japan Foundation.

SUMMARY:Cultural Heritage\, Violent Conflict\, and Atrocity Crimes Workshop
DESCRIPTION:On 22 February 2023\, the Cultural Heritage\, Violent Conflict\, and Atrocity Crimes workshop was held at the Penn Club. The workshop brought together scholars and United Nations (UN) representatives to develop a shared understanding of the key debates in the academic literature about the deliberate destruction of cultural heritage in violent conflicts\, situations at risk of atrocity crimes\, and their aftermaths. The participants also discussed the evidence of and intersection between heritage destruction and the act of atrocity crimes; and explored how the UN system can better prepare and respond. \n

SUMMARY:Health Care as Social Insurance: The Role of Medicaid in Improving US Health
DESCRIPTION:About the Lecture\nExpanded access to healthcare in the United States through the nation’s public health insurance program\, Medicaid\, has led to meaningful–and measurable–improvements in people’s health. Insurance expansions that have targeted pregnant women\, children\, and adults have all had important short- and longer-term effects on health\, and this talk will discuss some of those outcomes and the ways that researchers are exploring and measuring Medicaid’s impact. \n\nEvent Recording\n \nAbout Laura Wherry\nLaura Wherry’s primary area of research focuses on the changing role of the Medicaid program and its impact on access to health care and health. Recent work examines the early effects of the Affordable Care Act Medicaid expansions\, as well as the longer-term effects of several large expansions in Medicaid targeting low-income pregnant women and children in the 1980s and 1990s. “Multi-generational Impacts of Childhood Access to the Safety Net: Early Life Exposure to Medicaid and the Next Generation’s Health” with Chloe East\, Sarah Miller\, and Marianne Page\, was recently published in the American Economic Review. Prior to joining NYU\, Wherry was an assistant professor at the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Health & Society Scholar at the University of Michigan.

SUMMARY:Discrimination in Hiring: Why Do Firms Vary So Much in Whom They Hire?
DESCRIPTION:About the Lecture\nUS employers are segregated by race\, which likely contributes to racial inequalities in earnings. While the composition of an employer’s workforce is shaped by powerful social and economic forces\, it is not inevitable. This talk reviews recent evidence from around the world on how policy can influence the demographic composition of an employer’s workforce. \n\nEvent Recording\n \nAbout Conrad Miller\nConrad Miller is an Associate Professor at the University of California\, Berkeley\, in the Haas School of Business\, and a Research Associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research. He is a labor economist who studies firm sorting\, discrimination\, and criminal justice. His research explores issues such as the role of firms in labor market inequality between social groups\, the consequences of discrimination\, and the effects of policy responses to discrimination.
