… selection of InScience International Science Film Festival in Nijmegen. Staff members of Maastricht University will introduce the films, and afterwards give a brief response to them and answer your questions. By the Throat Without noticing it, our group identity is revealed not just by our appearance, but also by our throats. Our pronunciation and phonation determine the region we belong to, as they are formed by our mother tongue. In By the Throat , filmmakers Effi & Amir investigate the way our voice forms our identity, thus giving us our own internal checkpoint.

Introduction In her introduction, Assistent Professor Lauren Wagner will contextualize By The Throat by focussing on the scientific field of sociolinguistics.

… a fraying social fabric; public and private narcissism—Americans today seem to agree on only one thing: This is the worst of times. But we’ve been here before. In the late 1800s, during the last Gilded Age, America was highly individualistic, starkly unequal, fiercely polarized, and deeply fragmented, just as it is today. In the aftermath of the Progressive Era at the beginning of the 20th century, however, America became—unevenly, but steadily—more egalitarian, more cooperative, more … Open bijschrift © Sacha Ruland This lecture is supported by the Research Centre for Education and the Labour Market (ROA), the Faculty of Arts and Social Science (FASoS), University College Maastricht (UCM), the School of Business and Economics (SBE) and the SBE research programme Learning and Working .
