SUMMARY:A Note on Opera:  “A German in Paris: Giacomo Meyerbeer and Grand Opéra”
DESCRIPTION:Join the Goethe-Zentrum for their latest lecture in our “A Note on Opera” series as we look at “A German in Paris: Giacomo Meyerbeer and Grand Opéra.”\nGiacomo Meyerbeer\, born Jakob Liebmann Beer in Berlin in 1791\, was a Jewish expatriate who immigrated to France\, eventually becoming the dominant musical presence in the French capital for much of the 19th-century. He developed the genre of grand opéra to its full scope\, with its epic tone\, sweeping historical narrative\, huge casts\, ballet\, and special effects – including ice-skating on stage! \nHis works have never completely gone into obscurity and are now slowly being revived. Regardless of how one finds this “Andrew Lloyd Webber” of French opera\, his influence is palpable in works by later composers as diverse as Richard Wagner\, Giuseppe Verdi\, and Modest Mussorgsky. \nThey’ll be looking at Meyerbeer’s life as a Jewish composer living in early 19th-century Germany and then his later life as the “Toast of Paris\,” defining exactly what is grand opéra and how it evolved by examining bits of Meyerbeer’s “Les Huguenots” and “Le prophète.” Meyerbeer’s influence on other opera traditions will also be illustrated. \nCourse to be taught in English by David Kerr. No pre-existing knowledge of music required. \nAdmission: $15.00 for members\, $25.00 non-members.\nPlease use the link to register in advance for this event.

SUMMARY:Leapfrogging Technology: Opportunities for India Amidst Globalization Uncertainties
DESCRIPTION:India has some unique strengths and challenges. It has sustained high rates of growth over the past decade and more and is today the fastest growing economy in the world\, but large numbers still live in poverty\, and a fourth of the population does not have access to commercial energy. Still\, start-ups in India have attracted large investments over the past two years. India has leapfrogged technology in mobile communication in the last decade and is now striving to do so in financial technology. The bulk of the population comprises people below the age of 35\, and this demography is seen as a potential dividend; however\, globally\, the headwinds are of jobless growth. In this period of backlash to globalization\, what is the opportunity for India to meet economic and technological needs differently? What will be the new potential for partnership between India and the U.S.\, including in third countries?

SUMMARY:In Conversation With: The Ambassador of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the United States
DESCRIPTION:Join the Honorary Consul of Liechtenstein to the South and Southeastern United States\, the Atlanta Council on International Relations and the Goethe-Zentrum Atlanta for “In Conversation With… The Ambassador of the Principality of Liechtenstein to the United States\, H.E. Kurt Jaeger” as he talks about The relationship of Liechtenstein with the EU as a model in a Post-Brexit World.\nOver the last six months the U.S.\, European and transatlantic community find themselves in the midst of processing the implications of what are perceived as major turning points. The so called “Brexit\,” where the British people voted to pull out of the European Union\, and the U.S. elections have called into question the status quo of the U.S.-European relationship and the future of the EU. As we consider what is in store for 2017\, including major elections in Europe\, such as France and Germany\, many are looking to see if a move towards nationalism will continue to prevail. As a non-EU member located in Central Europe\, the Principality of Liechtenstein has a unique relationship within Europe. It has a highly industrialized and prosperous economy while also maintaining active international relationships. How does Liechtenstein’s model of engagement with its European neighbors and the transatlantic and global communities offer insight into the changing landscape?

SUMMARY:Germany as an Immigration Country: Lunch & Discussion
DESCRIPTION:“Germany as an Immigration Country: Labor Migration and the Refugee Influx” \n\nImmigration and migration issues are currently at the top of the political agenda as all parties prepare their strategies for the upcoming federal elections in which Chancellor Merkel seeks her fourth term. More narrowly\, the consequences of the refugee influx are passionately debated – a topic on which public opinion in Germany is sharply divided. More broadly\, Germany aims to establish itself as a modern country of immigration competing for global talent. The presentation will introduce the current situation\, give data on immigration in Germany\, and identify challenges ahead.\nDr. Cornelia Schu is the Managing Director\, as well as the Director of the Research Unit\, of the Expert Council of German Foundations on Integration and Migration (SVR). Before assuming her position at SVR \, she was the Project Manager at Stiftung Mercator’s Center for Science and the Humanities. Dr. Schu has extensive expertise on German immigration and integration policy. Since 2015\, she has served as a member of the expert group on immigration advising the government. Dr. Schu is an excellent speaker who has briefed out ACG Study Tours. She will discuss efforts to integrate the refugees into the German labor market. She holds a doctoral degree in German Studies from the University of Bonn.\nThis program was made possible by a generous grant through the European Recovery Program – Transatlantic Encounters.
