DESCRIPTION:Friday\, October 27 | 4:00PM-5:30PM | SOS 250\n\nVictor Seow is
  a historian of technology\, science\, and industry\, specializing in mode
 rn China and Japan within global contexts and in histories of energy and w
 ork. His book\, Carbon Technocracy: Energy Regimes in Modern East Asia (Un
 iversity of Chicago Press\, 2022)\, studies the deep links between energy 
 extraction and technocratic politics through the history of what was once 
 East Asia’s largest coal mine. In delving into the origins of fossil-fue
 led development in China and Japan\, this book unearths both the dominant 
 role of the state in energy transitions toward coal and oil and the enduri
 ng reliance on human labor power in the carbon age. \n\nCo-sponsored by th
