Darwin’s Sacred Cause and the Problem Of Slavery James Moore Professor of the History of Science and Technology, Open University Charles Darwin, a rich and impeccably upright gentleman, went out of his way to develop privately a subversive image of human evolution in 837–39 and then pursued the subject with tenacity for three decades before publishing The Descent of Man in 87 . Why did he live so dangerously? Underpinning his work on human origins was a belief in racial brotherhood rooted in the greatest moral movement of his age, for the abolition of slavery. Darwin extended the abolitionists’ common-descent image to the rest of life, making all races kin. Yet slavery did not evolve out of existence; it had to be destroyed. Intractable slavery collided with Darwin’s postChristian progressivism in the American Civil War. The triumph of the abolitionists’ ‘sacred cause’ enabled him to carry ‘the grand idea of God hating sin and loving righteousness’ into The Descent of Man, where the driving of onceenslaved races out of existence is naturalised as a by-product of human progress.

Christian Salvation: Do Postmodern People Want It or Even Need It? Fr Gerard Burns, SM Marist Community, Hull Studies of trends in contemporary Britain suggest that New Age eclecticism and personal spiritualities are eclipsing many of the older, institutional, belief systems. In an age when selfactualisation and personal fulfilment have become the new gospel, how meaningful is traditional Christian discourse about sin, repentance and salvation? Fr Burns brings his extensive experience of work in schools, colleges, prisons and parishes to bear on this question, which is the most vital one facing the churches today.

Religious Reactions to Darwin's Theory of Evolution – Then and Now Mr John Hawkins Beverley Richard Dawkins's use of Darwin’s theory of evolution as a springboard from which to attack religious belief in general has helped to popularise the idea that science and religion are natural enemies. The story of the theory's reception over a century and a half is, however, more complex than that. To mark the bicentenary of Charles Darwin's birth and to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the publication of On the Origin of Species on 24 November 859, John Hawkins presents his analysis of this reception.

Migrant Labour and Modern-Day Slavery: Issues for the Churches Revd David de Verny Anglican Chaplain, University of Hull The Morecambe Bay disaster of 2004, which saw the death by drowning of 23 Chinese cocklepickers, first brought home to many the plight of immigrant workers in the UK. Working for a pittance in atrocious conditions, and in thrall to often unscrupulous gangmasters, they are among the ‘modern-day slaves’ whose condition has been highlighted by the Wilberforce Institute. In this lecture, the Revd David de Verny (formerly an ecumenical chaplain to migrant workers in southeast Lincolnshire) analyses the principles and practices behind the churches’ response to this problem.

Can There Be a Specifically Christian Morality? Taking a Hermeneutical Approach Dr Ann-Marie Mealey Senior Lecturer in Christian Ethics, Trinity & All Saints University College, Leeds Few people nowadays would contend that only a religious person can act in a moral way. But does that mean that, for example, there is nothing specifically 'Christian' about Christian morality? In this lecture, Dr Mealey, author of The Identity of Christian Morality (Ashgate, 2009), will argue that the insights of the French philosopher Paul Ricoeur provide vital clues towards answering this question.

Problems with RE Today Mr John Keast Deputy Chair, Religious Education Council of England and Wales Religious education has long been one of the most controversial elements in the school curriculum, with secularist opponents decrying it as indoctrination and supporters hailing it as an agent of community cohesion. Its contested place is reflected in its anomalous nature as a statutory subject excluded from the National Curriculum. In this lecture, John Keast (who is also a consultant to the Council of Europe and an adviser to Tony Blair's Faith Foundation) will outline some of the problems and opportunities facing RE today. Interested teachers and pupils from local schools are particularly welcome to attend this event. Public and Inaugural Lectures 2009/20 0

Spirituality and Healthcare Professor Margaret Holloway Professor of Social Work, University of Hull In recent years the importance of treating the patient, rather than the illness, has been rediscovered in the health services. Treating the patient ‘as a person’ involves engaging with mind and spirit as well as body and taking account of his or her spiritual needs. Having held the Social Work chair at Hull since 2004, Professor Holloway also directs the University's Centre for Spirituality Studies and has a particular interest in spiritual issues around dying, death, and bereavement.

The Enzyme Neutral Endopeptidase (NEP) is a Key Player in Diseases of Civilisation Professor Thomas Walther Professor in Cardiovascular Physiology, Hull York Medical School Obesity, Alzheimer’s and alcoholism are three diseases of civilisation with growing importance and increasing health care costs. We identified neutral endopeptidase, an enzyme that generates or degrades small molecules with important biological actions, as a key player in the aetiology of these diseases. Manipulating the enzyme’s activity may therefore be a potent tool for the treatment of such diseases. Professor Thomas Walther became Research Assistant Professor and Head of the Research Group on Molecular Cardiology at the University Hospital Benjamin Franklin, Berlin, in 2000. Four years later he also received an Associate Professorship and the Headship of Molecular Pharmacology at the Department of Pharmacology, Erasmus Medical Centre, Rotterdam. He joined the Hull York Medical School as Professor in Biomedical Sciences in 2007. Professor Walther’s internationally orientated research has become increasingly prominent over recent years, especially his work combining basic and experimental research in order to improve the prediction and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. He is at the frontier of cardiovascular research using molecular, ex-vivo and in-vivo approaches. He has published more than a hundred peer-reviewed papers over the last eight years.

In Internet’s Way: Terrorism, Hate, Child Pornography and Crime-Facilitating Speech on the Free Highway

Inaugural lectures

Further information

Professor Raphael Cohen-Almagor Chair in Politics The internet has aected virtually every aspect of society. It produced major leaps forward in human productivity and changed the way people work and interact with each other. Made possible by technological advances in computer hardware, software and telecommunications, the internet has created new markets and is profoundly changing the way people communicate with one another and express and enjoy themselves. The internet contains the best products of humanity, but unfortunately also its worst. As the internet makes available cheap, virtually untraceable, instantaneous, anonymous, uncensored distribution of materials that can be easily downloaded and posted in multiple places, it became an asset for child pornographers, criminals, hate groups and terrorist organisations who use it to transmit propaganda and provide information about their aims, to allow an exchange between like-minded individuals, to vindicate the use of violence, to delegitimise and demoralise their enemies, to raise cash and to enlist public support. This lecture is designed to shed light on those troubling phenomena and to examine the ways liberal democracies tackle them.

Shakespeare’s Re-visions Professor Janet Clare Professor of Renaissance Literature

Inaugural lectures

Further information

Shakespeare’s originality lay not in the invention of narrative or character but in the refashioning of inherited materials. He borrowed and imitated, transforming earlier plays and interacting with the work of his contemporaries, in a climate of intense competition. In this lecture his plays are situated amid the lively stage traffic of Renaissance theatre. After graduating from the University of Leeds in 975, Janet Clare took an MA in Shakespeare Studies and completed a PhD at the Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham. Her first academic post was as an assistant lecturer at Ferris University, Yokohama, Japan. She has subsequently taught at Bath Spa University, at Goldsmiths College, University of London, and at University College Dublin, where she was Chair of the School of English and Drama. She has given guest lectures in Japan, Norway, Italy, Germany and Austria. She took up the Chair in Renaissance Literature at Hull in September 2007. She is one of the founding members and co-director of the Andrew Marvell Centre for Medieval to Early Modern Studies. Professor Clare has published extensively on Shakespeare and early modern literature and drama. Her book Art Made Tongue-Tied by

a bewildering array of risks and dangers lurking in the online environment. This lecture argues that such divergent imaginaries are not accidental but rather recuperate a long-standing pattern in modern Western culture, one in which technology is seen both as a gateway to utopian transformation and as a force for social and moral decline. Majid Yar was born and raised in Newport, South Wales. He gained his BA and MA from the University of York and his PhD from Lancaster University. Prior to taking up his Professorship at Hull, he worked at the Universities of Keele, Kent and Lancaster. In 2009 he was made an Honorary Fellow of his hometown university, the University of Wales Newport, in recognition of his achievements in academic life. His research interests are many and varied but tend to converge upon the examination of how conicts over norms and values are played out in the sphere of culture. He has explored such issues in relation to the internet and new media, Hollywood ďŹ lms, and the discourses of modern European political thought. His books include Cybercrime and Society (2006), Criminology: The Key Concepts (2008) and Community and Recognition (2009). He is currently co-editing a volume on The Politics of Misrecognition, to be published in 20 0.

The Relationship between Consumers and Logistics: Fulfilling Impossible Demands in a New Economic Order Professor David B Grant Professor of Logistics and Director of the Logistics Institute, Hull University Business School The essential output of logistical systems is the provision of goods and services to consumers to meet their needs ‘from point-of-origin to point-ofconsumption’. However, changes in consumer trends, behaviour and demand over the past three decades have forced a restructuring of such systems based on timeliness, efficiency and cost, which has increased risk not only for logistics performance – that is, consumer fulfilment – but also for our overall societal well-being due to increasingly fragile and sensitive supply networks. Additionally, global trade has decreased by more than 20% during the current economic crisis, which has exacerbated these risks. What then for the future during this crisis and when the recovery comes? Will consumers once again rampantly consume at previous levels? And, whether or not they do, what are the long-term implications for global logistics systems and operations in fulfilling consumer needs? This lecture reviews these issues and discusses alternatives to the somewhat fractious relationship between consumers and logistics, including shrinking the number of product ranges, increasing road infrastructure to ease traffic congestion, and educating consumers about wastage incurred by conspicuous and excessive consumption. Professor Grant came to the University of Hull from the Logistics Research Centre at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh. He previously held posts at the University of Edinburgh and at the

Haskayne School of Business, University of Calgary. His research interests include customer service and satisfaction, service quality, retail logistics, logistics relationships, the integration of logistics and marketing, reverse and sustainable logistics, and logistics in small and medium-sized enterprises. His applied research has investigated on-shelf availability and out-of-stocks, forecasting and obsolete inventory, internet retail service quality, and consumer logistics and shopping convenience. He has published widely in refereed journals, books and conference proceedings, regularly referees articles for many academic journals and conferences, and is on the editorial board of several journals. He is a member of the US Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals and their Education Strategies Committee, the UK Logistics Research Network, the NOFOMA Nordic logistics research group, and the British Retail Consortium’s Storage and Distribution Technical Advisory Committee.

Conspicuous Compassion Professor Keith Tester Professor of Sociology Moral concern for others is founded on a belief that what does happen in the world is offensive to what could happen. This belief leads to a commitment to act so that offences are minimised or even overcome. In this way, moral concern is also social action and therefore open to sociological and cultural discussion. And once morality is understood in this way and put into a social context, a paradox comes into view. Thanks to the media, moral relationships have expanded beyond social relationships: we know about offences beyond the limits of our action – we are offended but can do nothing directly to help. So what do we do? How do we live with that paradox? Evidence from the 940s suggests that the paradox is hard to live with, although presently it seems quite easy. Contemporary culture stresses compassion as an answer. But in what does contemporary compassion consist? It will be proposed that contemporary compassion is of a particularly conspicuous sort. What then are the traits of this conspicuous compassion? Keith Tester joined the University of Hull from Portsmouth University, where he had been Professor of Cultural Sociology. Holding a PhD from the University of Leeds, he has been a Distinguished Visiting Fellow at LaTrobe University in Australia and is an Honorary Member of LaTrobe's Thesis Eleven Centre for Cultural Sociology. He has written or co-written 3 books, the first of which – Animals and Society (Routledge, 99 ) – was awarded the British Sociological Association Philip Abrams Memorial Prize for Best First Sole-Authored Book in Sociology. Since then he has published widely on

His work has been translated into some nine languages, and he is regularly asked to speak at conferences in Europe and Asia.

Nidd Building, Hull Campus, 6.15 pm (refreshments from 5.30)

Air Quality and Climate Change: Major Drivers for Changes in Shipping and Port Management Dr Christine Loh, OBE Chief Executive Officer, Civic Exchange

About the speaker Christine Loh is the co-founder and Chief Executive Officer of the independent, non-profit public policy think-tank Civic Exchange. She has a Bachelors degree in Law from the University of Hull, a Masters degree in Chinese and Comparative Law from the City University of Hong Kong, and an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Hull. She is one of Time magazine’s ‘Heroes of the Environment’.

About the lecture With the rise of environmental and climate change legislation – as well as corporate social responsibility – on the business agenda, organisations are increasingly aware that they ignore these issues at their peril (as is evidenced by the threat of air pollution lawsuits against port operators in Long Beach and Los Angeles).

Third Annual Peter Thompson Lecture

Wednesday 28 October 2009

Christine Loh will explore how major stakeholders in the logistics and supply chain sector are meeting this challenge, how shipping and energy industries are now considering mitigation measures, and what the impacts on Asia will be. This thought-provoking lecture will be a valuable opportunity to benefit from Ms Loh’s experience in the political arena as well as in non-profit and multinational commercial organisations, and to gain insight into future trends and controversies in this debate.

History and Policy: New Perspectives on Today’s Development Priorities from the Study of Early-Modern English History, c 1550–1800 Dr Simon Szreter Reader in History and Public Policy in the History Faculty, and Fellow of St John’s College, University of Cambridge This presentation will discuss the importance for promoting economic productivity in early-modern England of a cluster of institutions which economists have tended to consider at best irrelevant, if not inimical, to the processes of economic growth. It is shown how England’s precocious universal social security system, the Old Poor Law, offered even the poorest in the community effective protection from food scarcity and from personal misfortune while it also contributed to labour mobility and facilitated inter-generational financial independence. It ran in parallel with a parish-based identity registration system established in 538, which provided the citizenry with legal security for their property ownership as well as ensuring their entitlements to parish social protection. Earlymodern English history indicates that giving policy priority to the creation and maintenance of these social institutions may be as important as more conventional economic policies in creating a propitious environment for populations to engage in productive economic activity in relatively low-income agrarian economies. Proponents of contemporary development policy may wish to ponder such findings. Simon Szreter, MA, PhD, is a founding member of the History and Policy Network and co-editor of its electronic journal, www.historyandpolicy.org, a joint initiative of Cambridge University History
