SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Developing a Social Capital Research Project
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nProfessor Chris Holtkamp\nAssistant Professor of Environmental Planning at the University of Wisconsin River Falls \nCertificate of attendance available \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=42qzdn65k4w \nOne of the challenges of social capital research is in finding support and funding for potential projects. Grant providers often want specific metrics and results that can be difficult to obtain in social capital research. I will present the process I am using to develop a grant application to support research into the relationship between dairy herd size\, social capital\, and economic conditions in Wisconsin. I will discuss the purpose of the research\, the process of developing my proposal\, and some of the challenges associated with the proposal process. Additionally\, I will cover how I intend to measure social capital. For new researchers\, this conversation will offer insight into the process of developing a research agenda\, putting together grant applications\, and ensuring the proposal is ready for review and critique. \n  \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nChris Holtkamp\, PhD\, AICP is an Assistant Professor of Environmental Planning at the University of Wisconsin River Falls.

SUMMARY:WEBINAR: Prof. Eric Uslaner: Trust\, Segregation\, and National Identity
DESCRIPTION:Invited Speaker\nProfessor Eric M. Uslaner\nProfessor of Government and Politics\nUniversity of Maryland–College Park\nCollege Park MD 20742 \nCertificate of attendance available \n			\n						Certificate of attendance\n					\n		https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8k9XcXSObCg \nSocial cohesion is a multifaceted concept including generalized trust\, measures of well-being such as socio-economic conditions (are people thriving\, suffering\, or struggling) and whether they accept diversity\, and national identity (belonging to a nation and deserving its welfare benefits). \nI first consider trust\, moving from what constitutes trust in different scenarios\, how they differ from each other\, which forms of trust are most stable\, and how best to measure trust. I then consider determinants of trust\, specifically inequality and segregation. \nThen I consider well-being and its determinants and focus on the historical role of education in shaping both trust and finally\, I consider variants of well-being and their determinants. I pay particular attention to the inclusivity of trust and how feelings about identity shape politics–and how political views are shaped by how the less inclusive sense of identity affects how deserving minorities are for government programs by the majority. \nTime converter at worldtimebuddy.com \nAbout the presenter:\nEric M.
