Full textAbstract:
Although Derrida, Deleuze, and others have shown the centrality of Friedrich Nietzsche's work for contemporary philosophy, the breadth of his influence is only just beginning to be understood in literature. Nietzsche saw himself as a philosopher and as a poet, and wrote in all his major works of the importance of understanding the vital interaction of conceptual thinking and its "practical" application by the litterateur. The place of the philosopher/poet, modelled on Nietzsche himself, was to be considered the highest attainable by man. Yet Nietzsche's elevation of poetic thought contains a dynamic paradox, which he himself not only saw but which was for him a--perhaps the --pivotal aspect of his philosophy: since both thinking and writing occur in the same place, language, man must acknowledge that to engage in either is to accept the destruction of his "unity," and to place his attention "out" into language. To articulate, then, is to establish a double focus, an outer one first (in language), and then an inner one posited in that outer medium. The paradox is that this distancing is both necessary to man and disruptive to his sense of himself. Once one perceives this condition as, after Nietzsche, endemic to man, one can begin to see how pervasively the dilemma can be used as a strength, a source of power, by the writer. This study explores applications of Nietzsche's etrangete. Part One considers Nietzsche's writings themselves, selectively, and some precursors on whom he depended for his insights. Part Two applies these ideas to criticism of a number of contemporary writers, showing how the Nietzschean triangulation of articulation, etrangete, and power (Nietzsche's "eternal recurrence," "Overman," and "will to power") informs such diverse writers as Joyce, Faulkner, John Fowles, and Samuel Beckett. Each of the chapters of Part Two explores an aspect of Part One's conclusions relative to a particular writer, showing how he works within the Nietzschean paradigm whether he would repudiate that paradigm (as in the cases of Faulkner and Fowles), or acknowledge it (as with Joyce and Beckett). The dissertation's effort is to demonstrate that Nietzsche's pervasive influence on contemporary literature is systematic, indigenous, and inescapable.

Full textAbstract:
Despite the fact that speech-language pathologists do not develop the theories underlying the principles and procedures used in the clinic, speech and language clinicians are ethically obliged to apply the "best" possible theory in their practice. Recently phonologists have been developing a theory of nonlinear phonology. Application of this theory to cross-linguistic data and to child language data has shown that what appeared to be idiosyncratic or difficult to account for using previous theoretical formulations can be neatly explained using a nonlinear phonological explanation.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of further extending the application of nonlinear phonological principles to the field of speech-language pathology. Two levels defined by the theory, segmental and prosodic, were investigated in a six-month-long intervention programme with a set of phonologically delayed twins (aged 5;6 at the outset of the project). Each twin was assigned to an experimental condition motivated by one of these levels, or tiers. In each condition, intervention goals were determined by parameters of the theory; the segmental condition contrasted features "higher" versus "lower" in the feature hierarchy, while the prosodic condition contrasted moraic with onset-rime descriptions of syllable/word shape. Using twins as subjects also allowed the twin aspect of language acquisition and speech-language intervention to be explored.
Results of the phonological intervention study revealed that nonlinear phonology provides a viable framework for assessing and determining goals for phonological remediation. A comparison of progress in therapy indicated that one twin acquired therapy goals faster than the other. An investigation of the differential progress of the twins allowed conclusions to be drawn regarding social awareness and success in phonological therapy.Medicine, Faculty of

Full textAbstract:
This thesis is a philosophical inquiry that advances an articulation of Indigenous theories of learning and methodology with Vygotsky's sociocultural theory and methodology. An Indigenized sociocultural approach may provide a culturally appropriate theoretical and methodological framework that enables researchers to overcome the prevailing ideological assumptions in the conduct of research with Indigenous communities, including eurocentrism, objectivism, and psychological individualism. More specifically, by Indigenizing a sociocultural approach, and approaching research with this new framework, researchers may be better equipped to conduct research with communities and educators in ways that lead to the production of culturally sensitive recommendations for communities, schools, and classrooms to help engage Indigenous youths. Research that is culturally appropriate is urgently needed given the significantly higher early school leaving rates of Indigenous students compared to non-Indigenous students, due in part to historical, social, and cultural factors. The Indigenized sociocultural approach generated through this philosophical inquiry is applied to Indigenous early school leaving and disengagement in order to highlight how such an approach may contribute to the literature. In addition, recommendations based on the extant literature that explore the possibility of increasing school engagement with Indigenous youths are used as guidelines for future empirical research. Finally, limitations of the theory, methodology, and the thesis itself are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this investigation was to examine the utility of nonlinear phonological frameworks for designing and executing an intervention program with phonologically disordered children. Six such children between the ages of 3 and 6 years participated in the study three times a week over three consecutive six-week blocks.
The following general questions were addressed:
1. Will nonlinear phonological frameworks help to predict logical and attainable intervention goals for phonologically disordered children?
2. Are the separate prosodic and segmental levels of representation of nonlinear phonology psychologically real?
3. If the 'prosodic tier' has some observable clinical reality, will there be a difference in proportion and rate of syllable/word shapes acquired as a result of intervention methods that contrast the onset and rime versus those that utilize the mora a constituent?
4. If the 'segmental/melodic tier' has some observable independence, is there any advantage to be gained from targeting specified features at 'higher' versus lower' levels in the feature hierarchy in phonemic inventory intervention?
An alternating block, mulitiple baseline design (counterbalanced over six single subjects) provided an opportunity to investigate the above questions. Within each six-week block, three week periods were devoted in turn to prosodic (syllable structure) training and segmental training. Prosodic subblocks were divided into two four-session sunblocks to contrast developmental change for targets presented as moraic constituents versus onset-rime constituents. Segmental
periods were divided into two four-session subblocks to contrast developmental change for features from higher and lower levels in the feature hierarchy.
Analyses during and after the study demonstrated the following with respect to the four research questions:
1. The nonlinear frameworks provided a logical model for deriving attainable intervention goals. All of the children became intelligible by the end of the project as a result of attaining the goals determined by nonlinear phonological theory.
2. Rate of attainment of syllabic and segmental goals differed, with a faster rate of change for syllabic goals overall, suggesting independence of segmental and prosodic tiers, and possible dominance of the prosodic tier. Interactions between tiers were also observed, suggesting that they are interdependent as well as autonomous.
3. Moraic and onset-rime condition quantitative results were virtually equivalent, but some qualitative differences appeared which had relevance for the each of the theories with respect to status of the onset, word-final consonants, and epenthesis.
4. Higher level features in the feature hierarchy tended to be acquired before lower level features.
The nonlinear phonological frameworks stimulated a successful intervention study. Evidence gained through this study in turn contributes to the understanding of the nonlinear constructs.Medicine, Faculty of

Full textAbstract:
This study explores the articulation of a popular political identity by the US Senator Bernie Sanders and the political coalition he communicates. The analysis part is conducted on two levels: the construction of the populist signifier ‘the people’ and the construction of the antagonist in Sanders’ political communication. The theoretical part is mostly driven by Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe’s perspective in radical democracy, identity construction, collectiveness and the chain of equivalence. By deploying theoretically unprejudiced approach, the thesis shows how a popular identity, namely ‘the People’, emerges, how it is communicated in order to put forward an alternative reading of populism which is hotly-debated subject among scholars and political scientists. Furthermore, the thesis elaborates how the theoretical discussion proposes a way of understanding the collective subject of ‘the People’ which appears as an identifiable and contra- conjectural category. The analysis ascertains that ‘the people’, as a populist subject, emerges as collective citizens demanding equal rights and taking the larger issues of inequality at stake based on inclusive values and positions, rather than as undemocratic, authoritarian, ethnically and culturally homogenizer subjects. Consequently, any subject causing ‘injustice’ becomes the antagonized other who obliges ‘the People’ to experience misery, oppression, and discrimination. The research tackles how Senator Sanders’ political communication brings disperse identities along with the chain of equivalence, how his movement articulates the political front of ‘the People’, and how it signifies the outsider through dichotomizing the political space. The study concludes that Sanders popular articulation provides a critical perspective for us to read populist zeitgeist of the twenty-first century.

Full textAbstract:
Information theoretical approaches to language state that the most efficient communication occurs when the amount of information transmitted is distributed as uniformly as possible over time. Previous research has shown that speakers tend to adhere to strategies for distributing information efficiently, using mechanisms at multiple linguistic levels. This study aims to investigate whether articulation rate (AR) is used in continuous speech to achieve a more uniform distribution of information within sentences, quantified as surprisal estimated by the state-of-the-art language model GPT-2, and if this has an effect on the amplitude of the N400 brain response in listeners. In neurolinguistics, surprisal has been observed to be a good predictor of the N400, which is related to processing of semantics and meaning in general. The results showed a significant, though small, effect of surprisal on AR, indicating that AR may have some role in achieving more uniform distribution of information on the word level. In line with previous research, surprisal showed an effect on the N400 where higher surprisal led to larger amplitudes. Results regarding AR and distributional effects on the N400 were inconclusive, although some independent effects of AR were found that could be further explored in more controlled experimental settings.Informationsteoretiska perspektiv på språk säger att den mest effektiva kommunikationen sker när information sänds ut så jämnt fördelat som möjligt över tid. Tidigare studier har visat att talare tenderar att följa vissa strategier för att distribuera information jämnt, vilket de gör på flera språkliga nivåer. Denna studie ämnar att undersöka om artikulationshastighet (eng. articulation rate (AR)) används i kontinuerligt tal för att uppnå en mer jämn distribution av information inom meningar, kvantifierat som informationsteoretisk surprisal med hjälp av språkmodellen GPT-2, samt om detta ger effekt på hjärnresponsen N400:s amplitud hos lyssnare. Inom neurolingvistik har surprisal visats kunna predicera N400, som är kopplad till bearbetning av semantik och meningsfullhet generellt. Resultaten visade en signifikant, om än liten, effekt av surprisal på AR, en indikator på att AR kan ha en roll i att uppnå mer jämn distribution av information på ordnivå. I linje med tidigare forskning så hade surprisal en inverkan på N400, där högre surprisal gav större amplituder. Resultaten utifrån AR och distribution av information var inte entydiga, däremot observerades vissa självständiga effekter av AR på amplituden av N400 och dessa skulle kunna vidare undersökas i mer kontrollerade experiment.

Full textAbstract:
Le raisonnement de la fertilisation azotée du blé a, depuis 40 ans, été largement orienté par le consensus autour de la méthode du bilan, avec comme principes fondamentaux : une nutrition azotée non limitante tout au long du cycle et l’estimation, de manière indépendante, des différents termes de l’équation du bilan pour caractériser la fourniture du sol et les besoins en azote de la plante. Au regard des enjeux de réduction des pollutions environnementales, de l’évolution des exigences qualitative du marché, ainsi que des difficultés de mise en oeuvre de la méthode, on s’interroge sur l’opportunité de renouveler ce paradigme. Pour proposer une nouvelle méthode qui réponde aux divers enjeux concernant l’azote, qui valorise au mieux les connaissances disponibles et dont la mise en oeuvre est cohérente avec les moyens des acteurs, nous avons mis en oeuvre une démarche de conception innovante, structurée en 3 étapes : un diagnostic des usages des outils actuels, une phase de conception, incluant des ateliers de conception et la mise au point de règle de décision à l’aide d’un modèle, et un test d’usage du prototype conçu.Le diagnostic des usages a mis en évidence plusieurs obstacles à la mise en oeuvre de la méthode du bilan, dont la fixation de l’objectif de rendement, ce qui a orienté la phase de conception vers l’exploration d’un concept de méthode de fertilisation azotée permettant de s’en affranchir. La méthode mise au point est basée sur le suivi régulier de l’état de nutrition azotée de la plante, l’acceptation de carences en azote non préjudiciables et des règles de décision tenant compte des conditions météorologiques au moment de l’apport. Nous montrons que la conception a rendu nécessaire la production de nouvelles connaissances, mais aussi la diversification des ressources et des compétences habituellement mobilisées. Ce travail enrichit les méthodes de conception d’outils d’aide à la décision en montrant comment l’articulation des 3 étapes permet de sortir du paradigme qui domine la fertilisation azotée depuis des décennies et d’élaborer un outil palliant les défauts des outils actuelsDecisions about nitrogen fertilizer application on wheat have, for the last 40 years, been based on the balance sheet method, with the following underlying principles: non-limiting nitrogen nutrition throughout the crop cycle, and independent estimation of the various terms of the equation, to characterize soil nitrogen supply and plant nitrogen needs. Environmental pollution, changes in the qualitative requirements of the market and difficulties implementing this method have raised questions about whether it might be appropriate to switch to new ways of managing nitrogen fertilizer. We developed a new method meeting the diverse constraints relating to nitrogen use, making the best use of available knowledge and easily applicable by users, through a 3-steps innovative design approach: a diagnosis of the use of current tools, a design phase including design workshops, production of new knowledge, a modelbased prototyping, and the testing of a prototype method.The diagnosis of uses identified several barriers to the implementation of the balance sheet method, including the need to set a target yield. This directed the design phase towards the exploration of new ways of managing nitrogen fertilizer that did not require the fixing of a target yield. The method developed is based on the regular monitoring of plant nitrogen nutrition, the toleration of periods of nitrogen deficiency that are not prejudicial and the use of decision rules taking weather conditions at the time of nitrogen application into account.This design required the generation of new knowledge and a diversification of the resources and skills usually mobilized. This work enriches the methods for designing decision support tools and shows how a combination of 3 steps can be used to develop a tool for managing nitrogen fertilizer applications completely different from the dominant paradigm of the last 40 years, and compensating the defects of current methods

Full textAbstract:
This thesis presents a narrative of Aboriginal economic responses in the 19th century to
the colonisation of the Shoalhaven and Illawarra regions of New South Wales. It
explores the competing claims of articulation theory and dependency theory about the
intersection of colonial and indigenous economies. Dependency theory claims that
settlers destroy the indigenous mode of production to permit the expansion of their own
economic system. They exploit indigenous labour which then becomes dependent on
capitalist sources of subsistence. Articulation theory, as modified by Layton (2001) to
recognise the bi-directional nature of contact, posits that the rate of capitalist penetration
into indigenous economies is variable and that the non-capitalist mode of production may
be preserved to create a self-supporting source of labour. The contrasting theories are
assessed in this thesis by determining the contribution different strategies made to
Aboriginal subsistence. Historical evidence is used to assess each strategy. The main
source of information is from Alexander Berry's Shoalhaven estate, where Aboriginal
people lived from settlement in 1822 until they were moved to a reserve in the early
1900s. The analysis suggests that contrary to previous research, Aboriginal people
gained the majority of their subsistence from fishing, hunting and gathering until 1860.
Strategies that depended on the colonial economy such as farm work, trading, living with
settlers and stealing made only minor contributions to Aboriginal subsistence. After
1860, European land use intensified and Aboriginal people were further alienated from
the land. The contribution of hunting and gathering contracted as a result. Dependency
on government assistance increased, particularly after the foundation of the Aborigines
Protection Board in 1882. Fishing remained an important source of food and cash.
Maritime resources were not commercially exploited to a significant extent until the
closing years of the 19th century when Aboriginal people were provided with boats and
nets to assist their efforts. The historical evidence demonstrates that articulation theory
offers a more realistic approach than does dependency theory when analysing the
intersection of colonial and indigenous economies. This is because articulation theory
can predict variable outcomes. The variable outcome suggested by the Shoalhaven and
Illawarra data are that hunting, gathering and fishing economies have the resilience to
withstand the colonial encounter if sufficient resources are made available.

Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo central a compreensão do modo pelo qual as pessoas trans têm se apropriado de espaços online de interação a fim de fomentar debates políticos, e tecer redes de solidariedade e sociabilidade, e de que forma essas interlocuções repercutem na formação de uma consciência política em torno dos direitos dessas pessoas. Para tal, parto da investigação da proliferação desses espaços, tomando como ponto de partida um grupo da plataforma Facebook, (mas não permanecendo apenas nele), visto não somente o quantitativo de membros no grupo, mas, principalmente, as temáticas frequentemente discutidas e a participação ativa de um elevado número de participantes nas discussões. Utilizo-me da etnografia multissituada como aporte teóricometodológico, especialmente no que diz respeito ao entrecruzamento entre as interações on e offline, tendo em vista que o acesso a novas possibilidades tecnológicas e a novos espaços de discussão, associada a transformações sociais e políticas tendem a modificar a forma com que as pessoas trans experienciam os sentidos atribuídos ao ser e se tornar pessoa trans, e a buscar alternativas de enfrentamento em relação aos mecanismos que garantem a delimitação de espaços, dinâmicas e direitos. Desse modo, ao buscar analisar os discursos que são acionados a partir das discussões nesses espaços e a forma com que eles marcam espaços offline de interação, utilizo-me do referencial teórico Queer, e dos estudos feministas, além do estudo sócio antropológico sobre mídias digitais.
This research aimed to understand the way in which trans people have appropriated online spaces of interaction in order to foment political debates, and to create networks of solidarity and sociability, and in what way these interlocutions have repercussions in the formation of a political awareness of the rights of these people. To do so, I proceed from the investigation of the proliferation of these spaces, taking as a starting point a group of the Facebook platform, (but not remaining only in it), seen not only the number of members in the group, but mainly the topics often discussed and the active participation of a large number of participants in the discussions. I use multi-situational ethnography as a theoretical and methodological contribution, especially in relation to the interlinking between on and offline interactions, given that access to new technological possibilities and new spaces of discussion, associated with social and political transformations tend to to change the way in which trans people experience the meanings attributed to being and become a trans person, and to seek alternatives to coping with the mechanisms that guarantee the delimitation of spaces, dynamics and rights. Thus, in seeking to analyze the discourses that are triggered from the discussions in these spaces and the way in which they mark offline spaces of interaction, I use Queer's theoretical framework and feminist studies, as well as the anthropological socio-digital study on digital media.

Full textAbstract:
La mondialisation, l'adaptation au besoin du consommateur, le lancement de nouveaux produits présentent des défis permanents et rendent l'innovation un axe stratégique pour réussir sur le marché. Ces exigences ont crée une demande croissante pour repenser le processus d'innovation et plus particulièrement la gestion des projets innovants à travers la mise en place de plateformes d'innovation. Cela revient à créer des équipes dédiées à l'innovation et dont les membres impliqués et disposant de connaissances transversales sont capables de les partager pour innover. Ce travail doctoral cherche à examiner et identifier le rôle du partage des connaissances entre les membres de plateformes d'innovation dans l'élaboration d'un processus d'innovation et répond par conséquentà la problématique : Comment le partage des connaissances au sein des plateformes d'innovation favorise t-il l'émergence des innovations ? En examinant le phénomène du partage des connaissances sous l'angle d'une articulation entre management de l'innovation et management des connaissances, cette recherche se base sur l'approche par les connaissances de la firme, où les pratiques cognitives et sociales jouent un rôle important pour l'innovation. A travers une recherche qualitative, trois études de cas ont été menées au sein des trois plateformes d'innovation d'un groupe leader du secteur agroalimentaire en Tunisie. Nous avons pu identifier les dispositifs organisationnels qui influencent les interactions entre les membres impliqués au sein des plateformes d'innovation. L'examen approfondi des pratiques de chacune des plateformes d'innovation étudiée nous a permis d'observer les phénomènes suivants.Bien que la mise en place des plateformes d'innovation s'inscrive dans une stratégie managériale centrée sur l'innovation et fait référence à un modèle de base, les pratiques de chaque plateforme d'innovation est spécifique. Au-delà du caractère transversal de leur structure, les plateformes d'innovation apparaissent comme une formule relativement souple que chaque entreprise du groupe s'approprie et adapte à son contexte et ses contraintes. Dans les trois cas étudiés, le partage des connaissances s'appréhende comme une approche organisationnelle et technologique ayant pour but la mise en commun et l'intégration des connaissances entre les membres d'une plateforme d'innovation pour innover. L'intérêt de cette approche n'est pas basé sur la connaissance en soi mais sur « Qui » la détient et « Comment » la partage au sein de la plateforme d'innovation. Finalement, deux éléments ont permis de mieux appréhender le partage des connaissances : le management stratégique et la culture d'entreprise. Les enseignements que l'on tire de l'étude de ces plateformes d'innovation étudiées, c'est quand il y a action délibérée pour instaurer une démarche d'innovation fondée sur le partage des connaissances, cette action devient une épisode critique de la vie de l'organisation dans la mesure où elle remet en jeu l'équilibre des pouvoirs, suscite l'enthousiasme de certains acteurs et la méfiance d'autres. Cette thèse, avec les trois plateformes d'innovation étudiées, ne touche pas qu'au niveau culturel des pratiques de partage des connaissances, mais touche aussi au niveau identitaire. La thèse défendue est la suivante : le partage des connaissances entre les membres des plateformes d'innovation impacte l'émergence des innovations au sein des entreprises étudiées. En termes de contribution managériale, nous considérons que le partage des connaissances au sein des plateformes d'innovation est un levier d'action stratégique pour les démarches d'innovationThe globalization, the adaptation to the consumer needs, the creation of new products represent permanent challenges to promote the market demand and make the innovation a strategic axis to approach. These requirements have enhanced an increasing necessity to rethink about the process of innovation and more particularly the management of the innovative projects through the implementation of innovation platforms. Team work is dedicated to the innovation where the involved members have transverse knowledge and are capable of sharing them to innovate.This doctoral approach tries to examine and to identify the role of the sharing knowledge between the members of innovation platforms in the elaboration of aninnovation process. It deals withthe following problematic: howthe sharing knowledgewithin the innovation platforms favour the emergence of innovations ? By examining the phenomenon of the knowledge sharing taking into consideration an articulation between innovation management and knowledge management,this research digs deep into the Knowledge-based View of the firm, where the cognitive and social practices play an important role for the innovation. Through a qualitative research, three case studies were led within three innovation platforms of a leader group for food industry sector in Tunisia. We were able to identify the organizational devices which influence the interactions between the members involved within the innovation platforms. The deep examination of the practices of each innovation platform allowed us to observe the following phenomena: although the implementation of the innovation platformsis linked to the managerial strategy based on innovation and makes a reference toa basic model, the practices of every platform of innovation is specific. Beyond the transverse quality of their structure, the innovation platforms appear as a relatively flexible formula that every enterprise of the groupcan appropriate and adapt it to its context and its constraints. In the three case studies, the knowledge sharing appears as an organizational and technological approach aiming at sharing and integrating the knowledge between the members of an innovation platform to innovate. The interest of this approach is not based on the knowledge in itself but on "Who" detains it and "How" it is shared within the innovation platform. Finally, two elements allowed to a better understandingof the knowledge sharing: the strategic management and the corporate culture. Our study on the innovation platforms shows that when there is a deliberate action to establish an initiativeof innovation based on the knowledge sharing, this action becomes crucialto the life of the organization as far as it can question its balance of power, arouses the enthusiasm of certain actors and the distrust of others. This thesis, with its three case studiesof innovation platforms, does not only ponder on the cultural level concerning the practices of knowledge sharing but also tacklesthe identity level. The praxis is the following one: the knowledge sharing between the members of the innovation platforms enhances the emergence of the innovations within the companies under study. In terms of the managerial contribution, we consider that the knowledge sharing within the innovation platforms represents anevolving strategic action for the innovation initiatives

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med arbetet är att undersöka hur en musiker utvecklar sin artikulation. För att undersöka detta har jag under sex veckors period övat artikulation ungefär tio minuter per dag. Under dessa övningstillfällen har jag fört loggbok för att kunna dokumentera mina upplevelser av min process, samt videofilmat ett urval av dessa övningstillfällen. Som teoretisk utgångspunkt har ett designteoretiskt perspektiv använts. I resultatet presenteras hur olika resurser har använts samt hur progressionen i lärandet har sett ut. Det framkommer hur jag har använt olika resurser för att kunna artikulera bättre i mitt musicerande. I diskussionen diskuterar jag kring de olika resursernas påverkan på min utveckling och kring stråkens progression i relation till det designteoretiska perspektivet och tidigare forskning.The purpose of this study aims on musician’s development of their articulation. In order to investigate this, I have practiced articulation ten minutes per day within six weeks. During these exercises, I had been writing a logbook to document my personal experience throughout the process. I have also video documented a selection of these practice occasions. The design theory perspective has been used as a theoretical base. The result shows an overview of how resources were used and how the learning progress has occurred. The result also reveals how I have used various resources in order to develop my string technique and to improve my own articulation overall. The last chapter contains a discussion about the impact of resources on my personal development and the progression I made within bow technique. The outcome is presented in relation to the perspective of design theory as well as the previous research on this subject.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to engage with current debates surrounding contemporary performance, queer theory and the body, which proffer a number of complex and contentious questions. How does queer theory work in practice, and does performance provide the ideal context for such deliberation? How do the subjective essentialisms of performance conflict with ideas of queer performativity and the deconstruction of sexual identity? Drawing upon corporeal and ontological theories of the body in conflict with queer strategic critiques, an attempt is made to articulate a problematically "essential" form of queer subjectivity in performance. By exploring the potential "origins" of a preceding queer practice in the works of Antonin Artaud, Bertolt Brecht and Jean Genet, the work proposes that their approach to theatre and performance articulated and deployed a particularly "deviant" form of expression and aesthetic. They established an approach to theatre and performance, which has continued to inspire and influence anti-essentialist and political forms of queer performance in the new millennium. From the early struggles of lesbian and gay theatre in the politically volatile context of the seventies and early eighties, the thesis foregrounds a liberating yet problematic attempt at enabling a "transformation" in British and North American theatre in response to queer critical paradigms in the nineties. Critical paradigms that are consistently promoted as the unique "product" of a postmodem deconstructive culture, and yet derive much from the works of the early avant-garde, the experiments of the sixties and the subversive texts of post-war British theatre. The nineties have witnessed a proliferation of gay/queer-oriented performance "break through" into the populist mainstream, and the "heteronormative" culture in general. The concluding section focuses upon ideas of a queer corporeality that seeks to remap the significatory potential of the live body in performance, in conflict with discursive inscriptions that attempt to fix and regulate categories of gender and sexuality. Yet, what role does the spectator/audience play in relation to this "activated" queer form of performance? How is the gaze/reception problematised, or does it subvert the very efficacy of queer theory itself?

Purpose/Aim: The aim is to study how people construct their own identities today. I want to understand and study how such a central thing as identity is being constructed, in a place which offers members to freely present themselves, the community Facebook.
Material/Method: Through Internet based interviews and observations I approach the inner worlds of my informants. Using semiotics I can detect underlying meanings. My theoretical base consists of modernist and postmodernist perspectives among others. Gidden’s theory of the self narrative, Butler’s queer theory, the theory of articulation represented by Stuart Hall, Gauntlett’s model of objects and intersectionality represented by Nina Lykke among others.
Main results: The main result is that people do not actively construct identity in one way on the Internet. They do it in several ways, deliberately and non deliberately. Identity construction today is very fragmented, like the world we live in. People choose their own ways to present themselves, and the ways they do it vary. But people are often aware of the fact that they do present themselves, they’ve just not been reflecting over who they present.
Key words: Identity, the self, the subject, construction of identity, modernity, postmodernity, Facebook, Giddens, Butler, queer theory, articulation, the model of objects, intersectionality, interviews, observation, semiotics.

Full textAbstract:
An anthropological study of urban practice, this thesis contributes a nuanced understanding of the role of visual art in regeneration. Inspired by the experiential philosophy of Dewey (1934), we have traced the effects mobilised by art as part of urban transformation. The literature of cultural policy and ‘culture-led regeneration’ (Vickery, 2007), discusses art as physical artworks, in support of development; or as socially-engaged practice, in support of social renewal. Through tracing the movements of all the actors involved, our research goes beyond explanation in support of policy targets. We have described what happens in practice, on its own terms. To account for a range of professional perspectives, the research included four empirical studies at different proximities to practice: an exploratory study embedded in art practice; eighteen in-depth interviews with a range of art and regeneration professionals; sixteen in-depth interviews with practitioners of an Urban Regeneration Company (URC) case study; and a six-month ethnography of the same URC case. Accounting for the agency of humans and non-humans (Latour, 2007a), our explications took close account of the effects produced by the associations of urban relationships, between: engineers, planners, construction workers, and artists; as well as plans and drawings, objects, materials, concepts, ideas and natural elements. Through tracing actors at the ‘microscopic’ (Geertz, 1973) scale, we did not observe art as ‘works’, but the way art works as a driver for re-imagining the urban. In practice, we see regeneration not as buildings or communities, but as a continuous process of re-shaping human-physical relationships. As part of this relational network, art ‘mediates’ (Hennion, 1997) participation, collaboration and reflection on the ambitions of regeneration: producing new ideas for urban possibilities. The effects are produced through the continuous associations between ‘inner’ (human) and ‘outer’ (physical) materials. These material associations meld to create a neutral platform for professionals to shift from their usual remit; to re-consider the ‘big picture’ from a new perspective. Regeneration is an active part of the political landscape. As a catalyst for urban imagination, rather than deliver policy objectives, art re-shapes them. Through tracing practice this research contributes new understandings to the study of art and regeneration. By revealing urban networks through tracing art, rather than explaining regeneration as physical or social, we have made a contribution to urban studies by describing the micro movements of regeneration as a relational practice. As a contribution to art studies, through tracing how art works in regeneration, we have produced nuanced descriptions of how art ‘mediates’ action and reflection in and on urban practice. As a contribution to policy and practice, we have articulated the role of visual art in regeneration as: mediating emergent imaginings; re-shaping rather than delivering objectives. As a tool for the policies of the time, ‘regeneration’ has a shelf-life. As an articulation of the role of art as a catalyst for collaboration in support of positive urban transformation, the findings of this study continue to be relevant.

This academic word discusses the contributions of the Institutional Program of Initiatives for Teaching (PIBID) in the process of initial training of Biology teachers, taking into as a study universe the Central Campus, in Teresina, of the Federal Institute of Education, Science and Technology of Piauí (IFPI). Considering that the institutes, although possessing the specificity of the offer for professional and technological education, they present themselves as another locus of teacher training for the basic school; that the PIBID aims to contribute to strengthening and improving the quality of academic activities developed in undergraduate courses, and that the articulation between theory, practice and interdisciplinarity are the program pedagogical foundations. The objectives of this study were: analyzing the perceptions of scholarship students, area coordinators and supervisors who develop the initial formation process within PIBID, focusing on the implications of articulation theory and practice and interdisciplinarity in the formative process for teaching. To this end, it pursues the following specific objectives: i. identify, in the actions and activities developed within the scope of the Program, the strategies and procedures used to promote the articulation between theory and practice; ii. in the same way, to identify the strategies and procedures used to promote interdisciplinarity. The study has a qualitative nature and used the following methodological steps: bibliographic research, which raised and analyzed published academic texts (articles, dissertations, theses and books), to provide theoretical and methodological support to research and to make known the state of the art of production academic research on PIBID and teacher training; a documentary survey that analyzed the educational legislation that guides teacher education and public policies in this area, the legal documents that regulate the PIBID in the federal context and, at the level of the IFPI, the institutional project and the annual reports of activities. To collect data, we used systematic (non-participant) observation of the activities carried out by the students at schools and reported in the field diary and the semi-structured interview. For the analysis of the data, the technique of Discourse Analysis is used, taking into account Orlandi's methodological recommendations, and taking articulation, theory and practice and interdisciplinarity as the main categories of the study. The research carried out leads us to conclude that in the activities and projects of PIBID - subproject of Biology, the articulation theory and practice are based on the practical application of theory, and interdisciplinarity, on the juxtaposition of disciplines and contents, facing difficulties for its effectiveness in the scope of this subproject, are aspects that are added to the theoretical-practical formation realized in the context of the graduation to base and to improve the pedagogical work in this process of being a teacher.

Considerando que los institutos, aunque poseen la especificidad de la oferta de educación profesional y tecnológica, se presentan como otro centro de formación docente para la escuela básica; que el PIBID tiene como objetivo contribuir al fortalecimiento y la mejora de la calidad de las actividades académicas desarrolladas en los cursos de pregrado, y que la articulación entre la teoría, la práctica y la interdisciplinariedad son los fundamentos pedagógicos del programa. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron: analizar las percepciones de los becarios, coordinadores de área y supervisores que desarrollan el proceso de formación inicial dentro de PIBID, centrándose en las implicaciones de la teoría y la práctica de articulación y la interdisciplinariedad en el proceso formativo de la enseñanza. Para este fin, persigue los siguientes objetivos específicos: i. identificar, en las acciones y actividades desarrolladas dentro del alcance del Programa, las estrategias y procedimientos utilizados para promover la articulación entre la teoría y la práctica; ii. de la misma manera, para identificar las estrategias y procedimientos utilizados para promover la interdisciplinariedad. El estudio tiene un carácter cualitativo y utilizó los siguientes pasos metodológicos: investigación bibliográfica, que planteó y analizó textos académicos publicados (artículos, disertaciones, tesis y libros), para proporcionar apoyo teórico y metodológico a la investigación y dar a conocer el estado del arte. de investigación académica de producción sobre PIBID y capacitación docente; una encuesta documental que analizó la legislación educativa que guía la educación docente y las políticas públicas en esta área, los documentos legales que regulan el PIBID en el contexto federal y, a nivel de la IFPI, el proyecto institucional y los informes anuales de actividades. Para recolectar datos, utilizamos la observación sistemática (no participante) de las actividades llevadas a cabo por los estudiantes en las escuelas e informadas en el diario de campo y la entrevista semiextructurada. Para el análisis de los datos, se utiliza la técnica de Análisis del discurso, teniendo en cuenta las recomendaciones metodológicas de Orlandi, y tomando la articulación, teoría y práctica e interdisciplinariedad como las principales categorías del estudio. La investigación realizada nos lleva a concluir que en las actividades y proyectos del PIBID – sub proyecto de Biología, la articulación teoría y práctica se basa en la aplicación práctica de la teoría, y la interdisciplinaridad, en la yuxtaposición de disciplinas y contenidos, habiendo dificultades para su efectividad en el marco de este sub proyecto, son aspectos que se suman a la formación teórico-práctica realizada en el contexto de la graduación para fundamentar y perfeccionar el trabajo pedagógico en ese proceso de construcción del ser profesor.

Full textAbstract:
Mediated public spaces both on and offline privilege the educated male elite, and thus cannot address the specific needs of women (Huyer and Sikoska, 2003:2), or their points of view. This study aimed to explore the extent to which three African feminist blogs realise the democratising potential of the blogosphere as well as the ways in which they articulate the concerns and perspectives of women whose vantage points are often silenced by mainstream discourses of citizenship. As a specifically gendered platform within a feminist public sphere, these blogs offer insight into the fluidity of the private/public dichotomy in online media spaces, and how this determines particular discourses of citizenship both on and offline. Using a qualitative-quantitative content analysis of 45 blog posts across three African feminist blogs (Adventures from the Bedrooms of African Women, Her Zimbabwe, and MsAfropolitan) during July and August 2016, this study investigated how women's engagement with feminist issues is enabled by alternative online media spaces, and in what ways blogs offer African women a relatively democratic space for sharing and discussion. Through an analysis of blog content, the study revealed that contributors deploy particular communicative strategies such as first-person narration, reflection of personal experience in relation to broader social, economic and political issues, and a confessional intimacy that altogether prioritise women's voices and personal lived realities. The topics discussed in the content of blogs cut across public and private life, testifying to a need to move away from ideological conceptualisations of public engagement that delegitimise women's participation in the public sphere. It also makes a case for the reconsideration of the terms "public" and "politics" and what counts as both in a technologically dynamic society in which marginalised groups are continuing to explore alternative avenues for communication and self-expression.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis addresses indigenous groups agency in trade governance to enhance their ability to affect international decision-making that benefits their capability to sustainable development. It conducts a case study of Articulation of Indigenous People Brazil (APIB) in the EU-Mercosur Agreement and utilizes Eimers (2020) theory of subaltern social movement theory to establish: what strategies the APIB have used in the decision-making processes of the “Mercosur Agreement? This theory allows consideration of indigenous agency and the effect of post-colonial structures on their capability to keep control over their realties. To collect data on this topic the author uses qualitative semi-structured interviews and qualitative thematic text analysis. The thesis finds that framing strategies of claims enabled alliance-building in Brazil and Transnational Advocacy Coalitions, which used international norms to enhance indigenous interests. However, has post-colonial structures hindered APIB´s ability to enhance interest in Brazil and silenced indigenous interests in governmental representation in the making of the EU-Mercosur.

Full textAbstract:
This thesis begins by complicating classical understandings of the public sphere and focusing on the ways in which loosely aligned protest groups communicate agonistically across difference. It argues that the organisational systems and structures of coalition movements enable activists to accommodate very differently orientated protest positions and explores the ways in which coalition activists attempt to preserve political solidarity across difference. It then goes on to examine the ways in which coalition movements attract and then maintain the attention of wider publics. It suggests that coalition protest movements unsettle and renegotiate the boundaries which have traditionally constituted the public sphere and considers the political potential inherent in the fractured and fractious spaces which exist between the political margins and the mainstream. These intertwined arguments are organised around an examination of the protest strategies of various grass roots movements. These include groups which have retrospectively been characterised as coalitions such as the women's peace movement and the anti-Criminal Justice Bill movement as well as those which are currently defined as coalitions such as the anti-globalisation movement and the anti-war movement. This research utilises a wide range of research methods including participant observation, content analysis, semi structured interviews and textual analysis. In this way these chapters construct a textured account of the ways in which protest coalition movements articulate dissent from the margins to the mainstream. Protest coalition movements have become increasingly active players in the formation of public opinion. These developments require academics to address the issues raised by the communicative strategies of protest coalition movements. This thesis endeavours to contribute to these debates by reflecting upon the ways in which the articulation of polyvocal dissent alters the on going relationship between activists and the wider public.

Bulaitis, Zoe Hope. "Articulations of value in the humanities : the contemporary neoliberal university and our Victorian inheritance." Thesis, University of Exeter, 2018. http://hdl.handle.net/10871/33626.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis traces the shift from liberal to neoliberal education from the nineteenth century to the present day, in order to provide a rich and previously underdeveloped narrative of value in higher education in England. Rather than attempting to justify the value of the humanities within the presiding economic frameworks, or writing a defence against market rationalism, this thesis offers an original contribution through an immersion in historical, financial, and critical debates concerning educational policy. Drawing upon close reading and discursive analysis, this thesis constructs a nuanced map of the intersections of value in the humanities. The discussion encompasses an exploration of policymaking practices, scientific discourse, mediated representations, and public cultural life. The structure of the thesis is as follows. The introductory chapter outlines the overarching methodology by defining the contemporary period of this project (2008-14), establishing relevant scholarship, and drawing out the correspondences between the nineteenth century and the present day. Chapter one establishes a history of the Payment by Results approach in policymaking, first established in the Revised Code of Education (1862) and recently re-introduced in the reforms of the Browne Report (2010). Understanding the predominance of such short-term and quantitative policy is essential for detailing how value is articulated. Chapter two reconsiders the two cultures debate. In contrast to the misrepresentative, yet pervasive, perception that the sciences and the humanities are fundamentally in opposition, I propose a more nuanced history of these disciplines. Chapter three addresses fictional representations of the humanities within literature in order to establish a vantage point from which to assess alternative routes for valuation beyond economic narratives. The final chapter scrutinises the rise of the impact criterion within research assessment and places it within a wider context of market-led cultural policy (1980-90s). This thesis argues that reflecting on Victorian legacies of economism and public accountability enables us to reconsider contemporary valuation culture in higher education. This analytical framework is of benefit to future academic studies interested in the marketisation and valuation of culture, alongside literary studies that focus on the relationship between higher education, the individual, and the state.

Cintrón-Moscoso, Federico. "Articulating Social Change in Puerto Rico: Environmental Education as a Model for Youth Socio-Political Development and Community-Led School Reform." Scholar Commons, 2010. https://scholarcommons.usf.edu/etd/1600.
Full textAbstract:
Recent attempts at developing an environmental education agenda in public schools emphasize the need to foster greater public awareness about environmental rights, issues, and solutions, while producing citizens with the knowledge and skills needed to address the ecological challenges of contemporary society. However, some scholars have argued that the attempt to integrate environmental principles into the school curricula has created a conflict between the politically-oriented goals of environmental education and the more passive practices of uncritical assimilation and reproduction found in many schools today (Stevenson 2007). Moreover, although there is a need for public schools to take on the challenge of prioritizing environmental education, they may not be ready to do so. Ideological conflicts, structural constraints and perceptions about the urgency of the problem seem to affect the ways in which implementation of these new philosophies and practices take place.
One approach that the environmental movement in Puerto Rico is utilizing to fulfill what they perceive as their responsibility to the new generations of Puerto Ricans and society at large is to partner with local elementary public schools in an effort to develop activities and knowledge relevant to local ecological issues and environmental principles. To better understand this complex articulation, I set out to conduct an ethnographic case study of Conuco, a youth-led activist group working in collaboration with four elementary schools in Río Piedras, Puerto Rico.
Utilizing an eco-critical approach, this study looks at the multiple-levels in which Conuco intersects as a public organization and a transformative space for its individual members. By caring for and working with elementary school children, the young people in the study learn to behave in ways that are ecologically conscious while, at the same time, fulfilling their perceived social responsibility as mentors and environmental activists. However, while these practices might improve the performance of individual teachers and the level of awareness and participation of particular groups of students, they raise questions about the ability of the school system to confront these new challenges systematically by transforming the system of instruction and improving its commitment to the environment. How effective these strategies are and what they mean for all involved-teachers, students, and activists-are the primary questions being explored in this study.

During the last years, researchers are gradually attracted with the cerebellar model articulation controller (CMAC) in neural network researches and the application of tracking trajectory. The characteristic of the CMAC lies in fast convergence, good precision, and its ability of learning nonlinear function. When applying the CMAC network in the control aspect, we don’t have to analyze the mathematical model of the plant in advance. CMAC can improve the neural network, which spends a long time to learn pattern and is applicable to on-line control process. In the control field we utilize the CMAC network to learn the relationship between input/output of the system to address/generate the corresponding drive signal from its memory. However, in the CMAC learning process, the learning rate should be appropriately given with the error/difference between the desired reference and the actual output. If given a fixed/constant learning rate, the system goes unstable eventually. Hence, we adopt the fuzzy rule to give an appropriate learning rate to achieve better response than the conventional CMAC in this thesis. In addition, in order to speed up the rise time of the system, we utilize the grey prediction theory to predict the actual output of the system by anticipation in this thesis. Finally, we obtain from the simulation results that each of tasks performs the satisfaction results. The advantages of the proposed are depicted as follows: (1) It can be applicable to on-line control. (2) Owing to dynamically adjusting learning rate according to fuzzy rules, it possesses efficiently learning in whole learning process. (3) Because of integrating with grey prediction controller, it can obtain the better transient response.

Daniel, Huber. "VELARS AND PROCESSES: THEIR TREATMENT IN PHONOLOGICAL THEORY." Phd thesis, 2008. http://tel.archives-ouvertes.fr/tel-00985478.
Full textAbstract:
The dissertation argues for the following thesis: Velars to have a phonological representation where place specification may be accomodated, but this hosting site is left empty. In other words, I assume velars to be placeless in their phonological representation. This hosting site can have a number of formulations, depending on the particular phonological model. It can be conceived as a Place node, like in Feature Geometry, or an element tier as in Government Phonology, or a particular dependency relation as in Dependency Phonology. According to the thesis, velars share the presence of this hosting site in their representation with labial and coronal consonants (and with vowels, of course), while differing from labials and coronals in not having anything to occupy this hosting site. The thesis is supported by phenomena from a range of languages. The placelessness of velars goes against received assumptions where coronals are considered unmarked due to their absence of place specification. I will demonstrate that quite a number of the most frequently cited cases in support of the unmarked status of coronals do not seem to constitute firm evidence for coronal unmarkedness (and in fact for markedness in general). This suggests that if coronals are still to be considered unmarked, it will have to have a different reason.

Industry data suggests that the U.S. educational system is being challenged to produce more STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) graduates and, in particular, engineering baccalaureate degreed students. However, this is not a simple issue of increasing engineering program applicants because academic preparation begins early in the student's academic career, with significant math and science requirements. Even though half of today's undergraduate students are taking classes at community colleges, and 20 percent of baccalaureate degreed engineers started in the community college system, community college students in pre-engineering studies do not transfer to university engineering programs in numbers necessary to decrease the engineering deficit. This dissertation was based on the assumption that, if pathways between two- and four-year institutions were improved through systematic approaches like articulation, the supply of engineers in the U.S. might be positively affected.
This dissertation used a case study approach to analyze an articulation process used by a community college and a university to forge a partnership designed to enhance this engineering pipeline. Using systems theory as a conceptual backdrop, the study looked at significant inputs, throughputs, outputs, and outcomes to the articulation negotiation process and analyzed roadblocks to that process. In the summary chapter, the paper addressed practical ways to bridge this gap and provide support mechanisms needed for STEM students to smoothly move from one higher education sector to the next.

Faculty of HumanitiesThis thesis is based on an exploration of human rights (in) South African education. In order to do so, however, it has been necessary to explore the origins of the notion of human rights in both its philosophical and legal senses. It covers the ways in which the claim of an equality of all human beings has developed historically and the ways in which they are articulated in the Universal Declaration of human rights and in the “new” South African Constitution. However, the argument in this thesis is that human rights tend to be generalised and universalised, and as such do not adequately address the ways in which human rights are experienced in specific social formations and in the contexts of particular people’s lives. In order to make human rights more specific and personal, I apply a sociology of human rights using Stuart Hall’s “theory of articulation” and demonstrate what this sociological analysis means in the context of South Africa under apartheid. In addition, to prevent reifying social categories and privileging particular types of human identity, I explore human rights under apartheid in relation to ‘race’, gender and sexual orientation. Throughout, I point to ways in which these identities and social categories interconnect with each and balance micro and macro approaches to an analysis of apartheid. Methodologically this thesis uses Sarah Lawrence-Lightfoot’s approach of “portraiture” in order to capture personal lives within a macro context and I provide accounts in this respect of Nelson Mandela and Simon Nkoli. I have also used a combination of quantitative and qualitative approaches in my investigation of experiences of human rights in South African education. Teachers’ and learners’ questionnaires were conducted in schools in the Western Cape, KwaZulu-Natal and Gauteng in South Africa between 1996 and 1998. In addition, individual interviews with Grade 9 teachers were conducted and group interviews with Grade 9 learners in these schools were also done. Classroom observations in three schools, one in each of the provinces, were also conducted, and individual interviews with two gay learners also form part of the empirical data of this study. A national survey of what human rights programmes were used by educational institutions and organisations was also conducted. The thesis also contextualises the sampled schools experiences within the post-apartheid dispensation in South Africa, providing an account of how human rights are framed in South Africa generally and in the South African educational system in particular. Approaches to human rights (in) education are also covered, as are the principles of a human rights education. The conclusions that I arrive at in this thesis are that there are interventions in regard to human rights in South African education which tend to be located within legalistic and integrated approaches. In addition, experiences of racism in the sampled schools are prevalent within an assimilationist mode. In regard to sexual orientation, sex, gender and sexuality are conflated but the provision of human rights in terms of sexual orientation has had a positive impact on the sampled gay learners in this study. Finally, I argue that the sociological approach to human rights is useful and generative and has enabled this study to access an understanding of human rights in generalised macro terms and in specific contexts of people’s experiences.

Shread, Carolyn P. T. "On Becoming in Translation: Articulating Feminisms in the Translation of Marie Vieux-Chauvet's Les Rapaces." 2008. https://scholarworks.umass.edu/theses/199.
Full textAbstract:
This thesis discusses aspects of feminist translation as exemplified by my French to English translation of Marie Vieux-Chauvet’s novel, Les Rapaces (1984). Articulating feminist translation as a form of activism, I argue that feminism manifests in translation not only informatively, through linguistic and cultural representation, but also through formative processes that are constitutive of texts. Describing some of the key moments in the creation of The Raptors, I show how these relate to Bracha Ettinger’s concept of metramorphic processes and to my own elaboration of her theory with regard to the generative aspect of becoming in translation. Viewing translation as a transformative encounter, from the perspectives of both the translator and the translation’s Haitian American audience, I underline the contribution of feminine paradigms for innovating translation theory and practice.

Full textAbstract:
The interrelation between space and culture represents the central question of this doctoral thesis. To interpret this relationship the author approaches the issue by virtue of actual identity attributes of the selected ethnic groups, namely Slovak and Hungarian minorities living in Prague. The aim of the work is to define the relevance and unique representation of the spatial and cultural phenomenon in the context of existing relations, including determining the extent of observability this mutual connection. The hypothesis of this doctoral is to present culture as a spatially unbounded, and the phenomenon of space as a medium, which can influence the intensity of interest in relation to the own ethno-identifying components. The verification of this assumption author carries out within social and virtual space, on the basis of registered discourses. Discourses, sorted into thematic categories, represent the most common attributes of ethnicity and ethnic identity of the given target groups. The empirical part of this thesis contains the analysis and interpretation of the discourses, which are supported with the theory of articulation. More comprehensive definitions of applied theoretical approaches, together with terminology, research methods and ethics or netiquette, are situated in the...
