Annotation:

In the minds of Californians, then, Mulholland’s aqueduct represents a historical pivot; a before-and-after event when farmers lost and the city won; a moment when Los Angeles began to soak the desert with water and populate it with people. The idea that the city is an actual desert disguised by uninhibited water theft has permeated the minds of policy makers and popular culture (i.e. “Chinatown”) for so long that it is hard to rectify the map above with the “genesis myth” of the Owens River Aqueduct. Yet, in the minds of engineers in 1888 (when the population of Los Angeles stood at around 50,000—roughly half the size of Santa Monica today), Los Angeles—particularly West Los Angeles, was anything but a parched landscape. This map, in fact, reveals an incredibly complex series of patchworks containing irrigation lines (both newly constructed and older Rancho era Zanjas), “moist areas,” pipelines, washes, creeks, streams, swamps, rivers, canals, wells, and of course, the large and still wild Los Angeles River.

Fotonovelas, or photo-based comics, are a form of popular visual culture with a long history within Latin America and US Latinx communities. In 2016, I was part of a cross-disciplinary team of scholars from University of California, Los Angeles, who partnered with the East LA Community Corporation (ELACC)—through an Urban Humanities Initiative funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Based in Boyle Heights, ELACC is a community-driven development organization focused on building affordable housing for local residents and improving quality of life in the neighborhood. Given the lack of engagement of residents in large-scale development projects, ELACC urged us to develop an urban humanities pedagogical and political tool for a campaign promoting just transit-oriented development (TOD). Our team draws on the fotonovela medium in a community-driven TOD campaign due to its ability to bridge multiple epistemological and praxis divisions in urban struggles, community organizations, and marginalized communities. I present the resulting fotonovela and examine how it politicizes narratives that challenge current urban development processes.

Jacobs, Elizabeth. „The Theatrical Politics of Chicana/Chicano Identity: from Valdez to Moraga“. New Theatre Quarterly 23, Nr. 1 (16.01.2007): 25–34. http://dx.doi.org/10.1017/s0266464x06000601.

Annotation:

Critical opinion over the role of popular culture in relation to ethnic and cultural identity is deeply divided. In this essay, Elizabeth Jacobs explores the dynamics of this relationship in the works of two leading Mexican American playwrights. Luis Valdez was a founding member of El Teatro Campesino (Farmworkers' Theatre) in California during the 1960s. Originally formed as a resistance theatre, its purpose was to support the Farmworkers' Union in its unionization struggle. By the early 1970s Valdez and the Teatro Campesino were moving in a different direction, and with Zoot Suit (1974) he offered a critique of the race riots that erupted in East Los Angeles during the summer of 1943, the subsequent lack of reasonable judicial process, and the media misrepresentation of events. Valdez used setting, music, slang, and dress code among other devices to construct a sense of identity and ethnic solidarity. This provided a strong voice for the Chicano group, but at the same time a particular gendered hierarchy also distinguished his aesthetic. Cherríe Moraga's work provides a balanced opposition to that of Valdez. Giving up the Ghost (1984) helped to change the direction of Chicano theatre both in terms of its performativity and its strategies of representation. Elizabeth Jacobs explores how Moraga redefines both the culturally determined characterization of identity presented by Valdez and the media representation of women. She also utilizes theatrical space as a platform for a reassertion of ethnicity, allowing for the innovation of a split subjectivity and radical lesbian desire. Giving up the Ghost, Jacobs argues, provides a trenchant critique of communal and popular culture discourses as well as a redefinition of existing identity politics.

Annotation:

An enjoyable overview of the world of pop, rock and politics in Beijing, accessible for students of Chinese culture and popular music studies. This is an area that has been exceptionally well covered in the literature, and Baranovitch's claim to originality lies mainly in his focus on ethnicity and gender. The overview of the development of pop from 1978–97 does a useful job of drawing together the various strands, though most of this is very familiar from the writings of Geremie Barmé, Andrew Jones et al. We begin with the introduction of Gangtai (Hong Kong and Taiwan pop) to the mainland, led by Deng Lijun whose ‘coquettish nasal slides,’ Baranovitch rightly suggests, were more truly subversive in China in 1978 than any of the subsequent rock and punk styles. Baranovitch chronicles the rise of the xibeifeng, the Shaanbei folk-infused rock style, linking it into the xungun roots movement and Tiananmen. An interesting section on qiuge or ‘prison songs,’ popular in 1988, explores somewhat less well-known territory. We follow the rise of the commercial, the karaoke craze and Mao fever, and the co-option of at least some of the rebellious rockers by the state. Baranovitch enthusiastically reveals the significance of music in the political arena, and its ability to prefigure, even shape the political.

For many years publication in the subject remained the domain of two kinds of researchers, either musicologists – ‘insiders’ au fait with the technical vocabulary – or sociologists and practitioners of ‘cultural studies’ – ‘outsiders’ chiefly interested in the reception of musical phenomena and their role in the constitution of individual and collective identities. This division has become very blurred over the last few years, which have seen the emergence of a number of works with an interdisciplinary approach. But for most historians the history of music remains a largely unfamiliar theme which they struggle to include in any global social or cultural analysis. This struggle is apparent at two levels: first, the difficulty of developing guidelines to the historicity of musical events and, second, the difficulty of escaping the chronology of classical music, which is predicated on a succession of styles and composers. Based on these two points, this article will attempt to develop, through a transverse reading of certain recent works, some working hypotheses centring on the notion of a ‘landscape of sound’ or paysage sonore, as proposed some ten years ago by Alain Corbin, a notion which, it seems to me, may make a valuable contribution to rejuvenating the history of music.

Annotation:

It does not require great powers of observation to note the pervasiveness of Nazi Germany in contemporary U.S. cultural and political discourse. For better or worse, the discursive landscape is saturated with depictions of and references to Hitler, the Holocaust, and the Gestapo—an obsession visible everywhere, from the progressive left to the far right, from TV shows to Twitter feeds to video games. The allure of using the Third Reich as a rhetorical weapon may seem obvious enough in a hyperpartisan political climate, but the resonance of that historical period clearly extends well beyond politics. Indeed, National Socialism now functions as an all-purpose conceptual barometer that can be applied to conversations about all sorts of subjects. Over the past few years, scholars have sought to shape such discussions with an unusually heavy outpouring of projects that explore correlations between Nazi Germany and the United States. What they rarely address, however, is why Americans are so prone to invoking the Third Reich as a framework for thinking about life in their own country to begin with. No less important to consider are the implications of how that trend has taken on such a wide-ranging salience and sense of urgency lately. With these questions in mind, Bradley Nichols (History, University of Missouri) convened an interdisciplinary roundtable, composed not only of historians, but also scholars of U.S. politics and culture. He invited Jens-Uwe Guettel (History, Penn State University), Sabine Hake (Germanic Studies, University of Texas), Emanuela Kucik (English and Africana Studies, Muhlenberg College), Alexandra Minna Stern (English, University of California, Los Angeles), and S. Jonathan Wiesen (History, University of Alabama at Birmingham) to share their insights and reflect on the issues at stake. 1. The recent upsurge of scholarly interest in the relationship between Nazi Germany and the United States has mirrored a heightened level of popular curiosity in the topic. How do we explain the timing of this conjuncture? What, if anything, sets it apart from the long-standing current of fascination with parallels linking the two countries? Is there something unique going on here that transcends other overlaps in focus between academia and the public (past or present)?

Annotation:

Chinese fringe flower is a popular landscape plant in California for its red evergreen foliage and its showy red flowers in the spring. In April 2007, a sample was submitted to the California Department of Food and Agriculture diagnostic laboratory from Sacramento County as part of an inspection of a nursery for Phytophthora ramorum. A sample was taken from Loropetalum chinense because the inspector noticed very small spots and defoliation in the crop, even though P. ramorum was not detected in previous samples sent to the lab with similar symptoms. Six 5-mm2 pieces of the leaves were placed on CMA-PARP (1) medium as part of our standard nursery screening, even though no lesions were seen. An organism with coralloid coenocytic hyphae, chlamydospores, and ellipsoidal semi-papillate sporangia matching the description of P. ramorum (2) grew into a snowflake-shaped colony from two pieces. On closer inspection of the leaves, small green lesions of approximately 3 to 5 mm wide were visible, especially when the leaves were backlit. For sporangial production, a 6-mm plug was transferred from the colony margin of the isolate onto V8 juice agar (V8). Sporangia, produced on V8 plugs incubated in dH20 for 2 days, were from 41 to 61 × 23 to 32 μm (48.7 × 29.3 μm average) with a length to breadth ratio from 1.3 to 2.0 (average 1.7). Chlamydospores on CMA-PARP were 36.7 to 60.1 μm (49.1 μm diameter average). From 2008 to 2011, similar symptoms were found on L. chinense from Contra Costa, San Joaquin, and Los Angeles Counties. The same organism was isolated from these infected plants. To confirm pathogenicity on L. chinense, five nursery-grown plants in 3.78-L pots were inoculated with three isolates each. Plants were inoculated with 6-mm plugs taken from the margin of a 7- to 10-day old culture grown on V8. Plant leaves were wounded with a sterile pushpin and two colonized plugs were covered with a freezer tube cap filled with sterile dH2O and attached to the underside of the leaves with a sterile pin-curl clip (4). Inoculated plants were sprayed with water, covered with plastic bags, and incubated for 2 days, when bags and plugs were removed. Four leaves per isolate were inoculated on each plant and four leaves per plant were treated similarly with uncolonized V8 plugs as a control. Plants were incubated for 12 to 14 days at 18°C (16-h photoperiod) when lesions were visible and some of the leaves began to abscise. P. ramorum grew from each lesion produced on inoculated leaves and no Phytophthora spp. grew from the control leaves when isolated onto CMA-PARP. Inoculations were repeated with similar results. The internal transcribed spacer region (ITS) of rDNA was amplified and sequenced from the isolates using ITS1 and ITS4 primers as described by White et al. (3). BLAST analysis of the sequenced amplicons (GenBank JQ361743 through JQ361745) showed 100% identity with the ITS sequence of P. ramorum (GenBank AY594198). P. ramorum is a quarantine pathogen with many hosts (2,4). Leaf spots on L. chinense caused by P. ramorum are inconspicuous and missing this disease during nursery inspections could lead to unintended spread to neighboring host plants. References: (1) S. N.

This essay analyzes the form of Hillsong Los Angeles’s live Sunday services and Hillsong California’s digital services using Kenneth Burke’s dramatistic analysis. Specifically, it extends Burke’s concept of the “representative anecdote” to accommodate the sequence of formal choices made in Hillsong church services. Furthermore, it considers the dialectical interactions of this underlying narrative, the material aspects of the service, and ritual enactments of the discourse therein. The essay offers a processual look at how one of the most popular global church movements articulates an organizationally coherent message in a local setting and also contributes to our understanding how millennial-led ministries influence the contemporary religious marketplace.

Bonnie Mitchell and Joe Feagin (1995) build on the theory of oppositional culture, arguing that African Americans, American Indians, and Mexican Americans draw on their own cultural resources to resist oppression under internal colonialism. In this paper, rap music is identified as an important African American popular cultural form that also emerges as a form of oppositional culture. A brief analysis of the lyrics of political and gangsta rappers of the late 1980s and early 1990s, provides key themes of distrust, anger, resistance, and critique of a perceived racist and discriminatory society. Rap music is discussed as music with a message of resistance, empowerment, and social critique, and as a herald of the Los Angeles riots of 1992.

This article examines the work of Alma Whitaker—feminist, reporter, and columnist for the Los Angeles Times from 1910 to 1944. Widely known in her time but almost totally forgotten today, Whitaker’s work illustrates the formative role of newspaperwomen in the expansion of Los Angeles in the early twentieth century, and specifically in promoting a settler fantasy that redefined notions of white women’s selfhood in the frontier space of Los Angeles. Her popular articles and columns both bolstered the white settler campaign to create Los Angeles as a white settlement and challenged patriarchal norms. Situating Whitaker within the emergence of the mass-circulating urban newspaper industry and the colonization of Los Angeles, this article contributes to the fields of women/gender history, hegemonic feminism, borderlands/California, and recent scholarship on settler colonialism as a framework for understanding U.S. history.

Annotation:

In recent years, press and political leaders have lamented the demise of the California Dream, a vaguely defined, popular ideal of California life that is said to have originated in the gold rush and to have energized California’s ascent. This essay argues that the emergence of a national ideal of California life can tell us much about changes in American culture, especially since the actual history of the California Dream departs so widely from popular perception. The concept of a “California Dream” did not emerge in the gold rush, but only after The Mamas & The Papas’ smash hit “California Dreamin’” in 1965. It served as both a reinscription of the American Dream and a revision of it to incorporate new social values of the Cold War era, including, among others, the importance of leisure, environmental protection, and healthy living. Warnings of the dream’s decline have attended it from birth, and yet it remains surprisingly popular across an increasingly diverse California population. The dream signaled the exceptional growth that distinguished California in the twentieth century and has represented a quasi-national aspiration that both hearkens to older American ideals and implicitly critiques them by offering an ostensible alternative.

The author tells of how he once loved the Case Study houses, commissioned from several modern architects by Arts & Architecture magazine in the years after World War II with the goal of developing a new style of housing in southern California, and why he eventually came to see those houses as part of what holds Los Angeles and other Californian cities back from classically urban levels of density and functionality. He argues that the “house culture” instilled by the Case Study houses and other single-use, single-family-house-oriented forms of residential architecture have caused more problems for the Californian city than even its oft-criticized “car culture.”

Annotation:

The discourse on indigenizing of social sciences has been popular among Indonesian scholars since 1970s. However, it has not shown any significant development, in spite of many writings of Nusantara scholars that can be bases of references to develop sociological theories of Nusantara, such as the manuscripts of Kawruh Jiwo Ki Ageng Suryomentaram and Amanat Galunggung. Making an effort to indigenize social sciences of Nusantara, the present study investigates both manuscripts. The results of the study argue that there are basic theories of sociology discussed in those two manuscripts. For example, the concepts of social integration (kabuyutan), division of labor, and historical consciousness, which are discussed in the manuscript of Amanat Galunggung. The sociological perspective of Amanat Galunggung is very similar to the structural-functional theory. While, the concepts found in Kawruh Jiwo Ki Ageng Suryomentaram, such as the concepts of four division of human being, feeling (rasa) and intention (karep), and reciprocal relations between human and society. Those theories are genuine and authentical; and if the theories are developed, they will result in a typical of Nusantara sociological theory.

Annotation:

This essay describes the recent “Sriracha Apocalypse” dispute between Huy Fong Foods, maker of the popular hot sauce Sriracha, and Irwindale, California. For six months, the world watched as it appeared that Huy Fong’s new plant would be legally shut down by this tiny Los Angeles suburb. Irwindale argued that odors and fumes from the grinding of jalapeño peppers to make Sriracha were creating a public nuisance. This seemed odd, considering that Irwindale had eagerly invited Huy Fong to relocate its chile-grinding operations to their community and that air-quality regulators had not found a problem. The essay highlights three important lessons from this spicy legal drama regarding food and place, the legality of foodways, and California’s role in these contemporary food debates.

Myth hides nothing: its function is to distort.—Roland BarthesIn Los Angeles, California, the home of the nation's second largest Federal Theatre Project (FTP), a group of FTP artists spent over a year developingThe Sun Rises in the West, a popular and critically well-received but forgotten play about the Dust Bowl migration and its effects on California's agricultural valleys. The play was mounted by the Southwest Theatre Unit (SWTU), an experimental branch of the Los Angeles Federal Theatre Project that worked as a collective to produce plays independently of the FTP's more mainstream endeavors. The SWTU attracted ample publicity during the latter half of the 1930s for its experimental, politically charged material, but because the group's artistic record has been buried for decades in government and university archives, much critical work remains to be done on its contributions to theatre history. This essay seeks to remedy this gap with a brief sketch of the SWTU as an avant-garde force in Los Angeles and an analysis of the SWTU's original play,The Sun Rises in the West.

NewYork: Facts on File, Inc., 1994.224 pp.One of the many expressions of the postmodernist revolt against themodernist western establishment is said to be its popular culture. The theoreticalliterature produced across this cultural divide often characterizes itin terms of two extremes: as a supreme expression of the true aspirations ofthe heretofore underprivileged masses or as a weapon in the hands of thetraditionally powerful political, social, and economic elites. The latter useit as a tool with which to manipulate the masses for their own respectiveagendas. A constant refrain of Hitler invoking Nazi supremacy over allhumanity, as well as our own self-serving politicians doing their own thingin the name of the “intelligent and well-informed will of the American people,”are only two of many examples of this instrument’s ubiquitous use.The Multiple Uses of Popular CultureThe vast grey area between these two margins includes umpteen otherdescriptions of popular culture, such as real “texture of our environment”and “adjustive syndrome,” and Matthew Arnold’s “heedless democratization.”In addition, there are such definitions as “banality” (Elliot), “reductionof the individual to basic instincts,” “titillation of the superficial senses”(Whitman), and “an expression denied by persistent puritanism and bourgeoispower” (Marx). Leavis also joined Arnold and Elliot in resisting thepopular resistance to “authority” found in traditional culture ...

Embora popular no próprio universo filosófico, além da arquitetura, e das artes, em geral, mobilizando uma série de debates intensos ao redor das principais faculdades do mundo, ao lado de grandes nomes como Žižek, Latour e outros, ainda é bem desconhecida no Brasil e em vários países de língua portuguesa, principalmente pela falta de tradução de seus textos, o que acaba criando um obstáculo em seu caminho. O objetivo desse pequeno ensaio é sugerir uma pequena introdução ao pensamento de Graham Harman, além de entender uma das suas possíveis implicações no campo das Ciências Sociais, contrastando com aquilo que poderíamos chamar do seu pano de fundo clássico. Existiria, talvez, uma nova forma de Teoria Social, uma que superasse aquilo que Jeffrey Alexander chamou de “novo movimento teórico”?

The focus of this study is an analysis of the novel The Brick People published by the Chicano author Alejandro Morales in 1988 and its homonymous documentary film from 2012. Both narratives are based on the same story, namely the lives of Mexican immigrants, who worked as employees in Simons Brickyard in Los Angeles, California, a city originally founded by Mexicans. In the official historiography, this part of Mexican migration in California has been ignored. This study will reveal how the novel and the documentary deal with this gap or interstice in North-American history and how they reflect the cultural divide in Southern California. We are particularly interested in how both the novelist and the documentary makers present the topics of integration, of preservation or construction of the Mexican cultural identity and of cross-cultural dialogue to an English speaking audience. Both the documentary and the novel narrate “value[s] that reflect […] the language, local conventions and culture of [the] geographic region” (ISO/TS 11669:2012(en), 2.1.10) of Los Angeles. The depiction of this target locale presents itself as a borderland that clusters a rich mix of cultural, historical, and (non) urban landscapes (Gersdorf 2009, 309). This ancient collective memory appears serendipitously as sudden sites or potential links of human action collected in one or more of the previous structures of consciousness and inspire individuals to perform and produce in unique and extraordinary ways (Morales 2012, 111).

The incalculable volume of minerals extracted from California’s mountaintops and riverbeds formed the very infrastructure that fueled California’s unabated growth beginning in 1849—and permanently altered its look. Detritus washed downstream by disastrous hydraulic-mining operations during the Gold Rush was used to build Sacramento, San Francisco, and the levee system in the Delta of the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers. Limestone mined by the Monolith Cement Company in what is now Tehachapi built the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The brutality of the landscapes captured in this photo essay is at odds with the popular conception of California landscapes. But, as the photographer discovered through the project, they are in fact quintessentially Californian.

California is probably the state in the United States with the greatest range of trafficking. The attraction of Hollywood, the high concentration of undocumented immigrants, the presence of long-distance highways, and the sexualized popular culture that has normalized and reduced the moral barriers to access commercial sex, contributes for the proliferation of sex trafficking. This article, based on qualitative interviews conducted between 2014 and 2017 with five sex traffickers operating in California and sixteen women from Central America trafficked to California, aims to describe how sex trafficking networks operate in California, and examine the characteristics of Central American women trafficked to this state.

This article analyses the 2005 video clip and the song Люди Инвалиды (‘Lyudi Invalidy’, literally translated as ‘disabled people’ in English) of the pop duo t.A.T.u. Through an analysis of the song and the video and public and activists’ reactions to it within Russia, the authors seek to contribute to the existing discussions on the notions of инвалидность (‘invalidnost’’, the Russian term for disability) in the context of post-soviet Russia and the problem of relating these notions to English-speaking disability discourses (Iarskaia-Smirnova 2001; Gains 2004; Hartblay 2005; Phillips 2009). The authors investigate t.A.T.u.’s usage of the term инвалидность (‘invalidnost’) and relate it to the term's usage within the broader socio-political context of Russia. Considering the place where the song and the video were produced – Los Angeles – and their target audiences – both Russian and North/Western – we argue that the video and the song must be read as cases of cultural translation between the Russian ‘invalidnost’’ and the North/Western disability, queer, and crip discourses. t.A.T.u. imported North/Western cultural images and meanings of disability and queerness in their video and songs. While these images and meanings can be read as empowering in the North/Western context, these images intersect problematically with discriminatory discourses on invalidnost’ in the Russian context. Considering Russian disability activists’ reactions to the song the authors argue that the cultural translation of these North/Western concepts produce derogatory meanings of invalidnost’ within the Russian context rather than inspiring acceptance or appreciation

Since the early 1990s several "serious" southern California writers have begun writing science fiction, detective stories, mysteries, comic satires, even magical realism, finding freshly relevant ways to represent western life at century's end. Through novels by Sandra Tsing Loh and Cynthia Kadohata, I locate this turn to the popular within a larger political and cultural context we might call "post-Civil Rights." In such novels, texts do not take racial alterity as a starting, radically disruptive fact, although they do not claim that America has outgrown racism. Rather, a new racial subject and/or series of racial formations is under construction, invested in updating and reformulating the status of the nonwhite racial other, to account for the enormity of change in recent years, especially the place of youth within globalization discourse.

In recent years, disruptive innovation by peer-to-peer platforms in a variety of industries, notably transportation and hospitality have altered the way individuals consume everyday essential services. With growth in sharing economy platforms such as Uber for ridesharing and Airbnb for short-term accommodations, interest in examining spatiotemporal patterns of participation in the sharing economy by suppliers and consumers is increasing. This research is motivated by key questions: who are the sharing economy workers, where are they located, and does their location influence their participation in the sharing economy? This paper is the first systematic effort to analyze spatiotemporal patterns of participation by hosts in the shared accommodation-based economy. Using three different kinds of shared accommodations listed in a 3-year period in the popular short-term accommodation platform, Airbnb, we examine spatiotemporal dimensions of host participation in a major U.S. market, Los Angeles CA. The paper also develops a conceptual model by positing associations of demographic, socioeconomic, occupational, and social capital attributes of hosts, along with their attitudes toward trust and greener consumption with hosts’ participation in a shared accommodation market. Results confirm host participation to be influenced by young dependency ratio, the potential of supplemental income, as well as the sustainability potential of collaborative consumption, along with finance, insurance, and real estate occupation, but not so much by trust for our overall study area. These results add new insights to limited prior knowledge about the sharing economy worker and have policy implications.

Abstract: This paper explores how the Taiwanese-Chinese religious movement Yiguandao (“Way of Pervading Unity”) creates a community of non-Chinese followers by utilizing Daoism-related beliefs and practices. Drawing on ethnographic data from fieldwork conducted in California in early 2018, published Yiguandao materials, and internet resources, the paper argues that Yiguandao activists specifically invest their messages in Daoist symbols, beliefs, and practices to reach out to non-Chinese sympathizers of “Asian philosophies” and eventually to establish a global and cross-cultural community of Dao followers. By discussing a case study from Los Angeles, the paper seeks to understand the patterns of Yiguandao activists’ engagement with Daoism and how their efforts blend into establishing a global Daoist field. Finally, it thereby invites us to rethink the often haphazardly drawn boundaries—both by practitioners and scholars—between Daoism and other religious phenomena, including New Age, spirituality, and Chinese popular sects.

In 2001, researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, described the isolation of a new population of adult stem cells from liposuctioned adipose tissue. These stem cells, now known as adipose-derived stem cells or ADSCs, have gone on to become one of the most popular adult stem cells populations in the fields of stem cell research and regenerative medicine. As of today, thousands of research and clinical articles have been published using ASCs, describing their possible pluripotency in vitro, their uses in regenerative animal models, and their application to the clinic. This paper outlines the progress made in the ASC field since their initial description in 2001, describing their mesodermal, ectodermal, and endodermal potentials both in vitro and in vivo, their use in mediating inflammation and vascularization during tissue regeneration, and their potential for reprogramming into induced pluripotent cells.
