Abstract:
Both in the Party Charter and in the State Constitution, the Chinese Communist Party claims to represent the Chinese people. Instead of treating this claim as mere rhetoric made by the party for propaganda purposes, this article demonstrates that it indicates a rather significant transition in the party’s understanding of its relationship with the people. Particularly, roughly about two decades into the Open and Reform policy initiated under the leadership of Deng Xiaoping, the party made a strategic choice in imagining itself as the representative of the people instead of the revolutionary vanguard. This change in the language was very remarkable in the post-1949 Chinese history, in the sense that the party no longer considers itself as the facilitator of proletariat revolution, but as the authoritarian representative in the political community. If representation means “re-presentation”, as in bringing something absent present, this appears to be what the party tries to do. By embodying the nation, the party tries to represent both the rich and the poor, acting as the arbiter of forever present discords and conflicts within the society. Clearly, this representation has nothing to do with what people usually call “democratic” representation. But considering that representation and democracy are conceptually rooted in very different sources, exploring “authoritarian representation” in contemporary China would enable us to better understand both China and democratic representation.

Abstract:
AbstractThis essay examines the ways in which women in the lowest socio-economic class are represented on the contemporary Irish stage. Its central concern is with the ways in which the Naturalistic dramatic representation of the home as a domestic sphere for poor women may confound nationalist discourses of the country as home, yet may fail to resist the systemic violence of the state against its most precarious citizens. To do so I set the actual economic conditions of these precarious women alongside social attitudes to poverty and the poor to demonstrate the systemic violence enacted on the most vulnerable. Turning then to dominant media representations, the essay questions the interaction between representation and reality more generally, whereby Ireland’s poorest are demonised and disenfranchised as figures of fun or fear in forms of representational violence. Against this broader backdrop, the paper identifies recurrent forms of and tropes in stage representations to raise questions about both the form and function of theatre for contemporary spectators, focusing on two contemporary plays Waiting on Ikea and Pineapple. For some, this promotes pleasures of recognition; for others the frisson of class voyeurism. The central argument is that little has changed since O'Casey put Juno Boyle and Bessie Burgess onstage – in either the precarious lives led by poor women, their representation on stage or the failures of the audiences or the state to accept responsibility for the unequal lives of Irish citizens.

Abstract:
Democratic representation seems to be increasingly under stress in various established democracies, such as Greece, Spain, and the USA. Chile is also following this trend, but there are a number of particularities that make the Chilean case distinctive. After all, Chile is widely regarded as one of the most consolidated democratic regimes in Latin America and as having solid economic performance. However, citizens have shown decreasing levels of satisfaction with democracy and representative institutions, and are turning to protest and social mobilization to express their discontent. The paradox that Chile is facing today lies in the mismatch between the attitudes of voters and the overall performance of the regime. In explaining this intriguing puzzle, most of the literature has emphasized the legacy of institutional arrangements inherited from military rule. We argue that institutions are necessary but insufficient for explaining the increasing challenges that democratic representation faces. Thus, we also claim that it is necessary to consider not only the expansion of critical citizens and middle income earners, but also the repoliticization of inequalities.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper we address a number of contemporary themes concerning the analysis of qualitative data and the ethnographic representation of social realities. A contrast is drawn. On the one hand, a diversity of representational modes and devices is currently celebrated, in response to various critiques of conventional ethnographic representation. On the other hand, the widespread influence of computer- assisted qualitative data analysis is promoting convergence on a uniform mode of data analysis and representation (often justified with reference to grounded theory). We note the ironic contrast between these two tendencies, the heterodox and the orthodox, in contemporary qualitative research. We go on to suggest that there exist alternatives that reflect both the diversity of representational approaches, and the broader possibilities of contemporary computing. We identify the technical and intellectual possibilities of hypertext software as offering just one such synthesis.

Full text
Abstract:
The 1997 British general election saw the return of 120 women Members of Parliament. The central question of this thesis is whether this unprecedented number of women MPs makes a difference to the political representation of women. The research is applied political theory, in which conceptual analysis is informed by and informs the empirical research. Pitkin's seminal contribution The Concept of Representation and Phillips' The Politics of Presence are both considered. In particular, Phillips' 'shot in the dark thesis', which makes a link between women's numerical representation and the substantive representation of women by women representatives, is subjected to empirical analysis. The data are drawn from interviews with half of the Labour women MPs elected for the first time in the 1997 election. The introduction in Chapter 1 includes discussions of the research objectives and the research design and methods. Chapter 2 explores women's legislative recruitment within the Labour Party, focusing upon its policy of all-women shortlists. Chapters 3 and 4 examine Pitkin's and Phillips' ideas respectively. The next three chapters (Chapters 5, 6 and 7) utilise the empirical data to analyse in tum symbolic, microcosmic and substantive conceptions of representation. The last of these chapters centres upon the question of whether women representatives seek and are able to act for women at constituency, parliamentary and governmental levels. The analysis broadly supports Phillips' thesis. However, the intersection of party and gender identities is emphasised to a greater extent. It is also argued that women MPs may not have, at least as yet, secured the 'safe spaces' from which to act for women. These conclusions suggest both that the complexity of the concept of representation must be recognised and that combining conceptual and empirical analysis engenders a more sophisticated understanding of women's political representation.

Dave, Paul. "Representation of class in contemporary English cinema." Thesis, University of East London, 2004. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.532539.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a study of the representation of class in English film culture which focuses primarily on films and written texts produced between 1978 and 2002. My approach to these representations takes the work of Ellen Meiksins Wood on the theoretical principles of historical materialism as its most general methodological guide. Thus, I seek to place representations of class within a conceptual framework which, like the one found in Wood's work, puts emphasis on approaching class as a relational and conflictual social phenomenon lying at the heart of capitalist society. Such a move involves establishing a dual-focus on both images of class and capitalism. Consequently I seek to embed my examples of the representation of class within a characterisation of the contemporary moment of capitalism as a specifically neo-liberal one. Related to this joining of the perspectives of class and capitalism is my attempt to explore, in the context of contemporary film and film criticism, Wood's historical thesis that Englishness forms the `pristine culture of capitalism'. Her idea that cultures of Englishness exaggerate class understood as an identity, and at the same time conceal its dynamic role as an antagonistic relationship central to capitalism, has determined my focus on an English rather than a wider, British cinema. The material for study has been drawn from diverse areas - examples of mainstream and experimental film are discussed here, as are different forms of criticism and literature. However, the intention is not to provide a systematic overview of national film production or patterns of criticism during this period, but rather to generate distinctive readings of films and critical texts from the particular historical materialist conceptualisation of class, capitalism and English referred to above.

Yearwood, Susan J. "Representation of madness in contemporary Black literature." Thesis, Sheffield Hallam University, 2005. http://shura.shu.ac.uk/20589/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis uses Bakhtinian theory, in particular the chronotope, as well as insights into my personal writing and other texts to look at the representation of madness in contemporary black literature. The representation of madness is reflected in three texts by writers of African descent: Breath, Eyes, Memory by Edwidge Danticat; Orange Laughter by Leone Ross and Paradise by Toni Morrison. I look at how madness as an instance of rupture and trauma relates to language used within the texts. I draw on Bakhtin's theories on language as a basis on which claims to madness in language, or text, are made. Bakhtin's theories are useful as he attempted to define social aspects of language in a way that illuminated the psycho-social in texts. In an attempt to further define aspects of the chronotope - which relates to the correlation between space and time within aspects of literature - it became useful to add the definition of the "mad" chronotope to aspects of language so that the literature in question could be seen through a new definition that was pertinent to the subject. The writers, Danticat, Ross and Morrison, all approach madness from differing viewpoints that help to emphasise the relationship between madness and the chronotope. This relationship is explored throughout the following chapters and helps to define the new concept of the "mad chronotope" as an aspect of language useful to the interpretation of texts. I analyse my personal writing by looking at madness and other relevant themes in relation to the novel and by relating ideas on Bakhtinian theory, notably the mad chronotope, to the creative process. In the second part of the novel, the protagonist suffers with schizophrenia within an extended period of time. At this point, the novel attempts to mirror the concerns of the thesis in relation to the mad chronotope and other themes relevant to the thesis so that there is a correlation between the two pieces of work.

Full text
Abstract:
This study will focus on the analysis of eight films representing migrants in Spain. The films are documentaries and fiction films made by Spanish and non-Spanish filmmakers from 1999 till 2010. The main focus of this analysis is to explore the ways in which migrant and non-migrant filmmakers reframe the urban and rural space to create opportunities for a free, although contested, exchange between marginal voices and mainstream Spanish society. I will analyse to what extent the films challenge forms of exclusion, exploring how they represent ethnicity in a space that includes some and excludes others. It is my main aim to describe how and to what extent the films open the space for political argumentation. My main theoretical framework will derive from the work of French philosopher Jacques Rancière to demonstrate to what extent the films create scenes of dissensus. I will also draw upon Hamid Naficy’s characterisation of ‘accented cinema’, as well as upon theorists like Doreen Massey, Michel de Certeau and Henri Lefebvre, since their arguments will help the analysis of how the films represent space, time, power and movement. Apart from this, I will make use of Laura Marks’s theories on intercultural cinema made by the diasporic filmmaker and its capacity to create new kinds of sense knowledges through haptic perception. Other political theories from Giorgio Agamben, Fredric Jameson and Thomas Elsaesser, among others, will contribute to exploring how migrant characters are portrayed and to what extent this representation contributes to the creation of scenes of dissensus.

Folch, Ausenda. "The Representation of Motherhood in Contemporary Catalan Fiction." FIU Digital Commons, 2011. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/434.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation analyzes four twenty-first-century Catalan novels which present the complex positions occupied by mothers in the last seven decades. Its conceptual framework posits motherhood as both a changing social construction and a political institution in a constant state of flux. In Inma Monsó´s Todo un carácter (2001), Eva Piquer´s Una victoria diferente (2002), Carme Riera´s La mitad del alma (2004), and Najat El Hachmi´s El último patriarca (2008) motherhood is explored as a metaphorical act, a gender-constructing experience, as well as the locus of expression with regard to gender and power relations. During the dictatorship of Francisco Franco (1939-1975), the majority of women were excluded from public spaces, and forced to stay home to care for their husbands and children. Furthermore, the state criminalized abortion, made contraception and divorce illegal, and promoted an ideal of femininity based on silence, sacrifice, and self-denial. The political changes of the late 1970s allowed women greater personal autonomy, and many women writers began to challenge stereotypical views of women’s social roles. Yet in the 70s and 80s, the narratives of Esther Tusquets, Ana María Moix, and Montserrat Roig represent the mother as a repressive figure whom the daughter must reject in order to liberate herself and regain her voice. It is not until the 90s when the novelists Mercedes Abad, Maruja Torres, Carme Riera, Imma Monsó, Eva Piquer, and María Barbal rehumanize the mother figure, recovering their matrilineal heritage. However, far from suggesting a unified trend in representations of motherhood in Catalan fiction, the diverse points of view of the novels under discussion here reveal that differences in attitudes among women authors about mother-daughter conflict are far from resolved. The theoretical background for this dissertation draws mainly on the work of Adrienne Rich, Nancy Chodorow, and Julia Kristeva. It includes psychoanalytic studies as well as sociologically based essays by Anna López Puig, Amparo Acereda, Jacqueline Cruz, Barbara Zecchi, Ángeles de la Concha, and Raquel Osborne, among others.

Abstract:
1. Evil eye participates in the daily life of people of contemporary Lithuania in spite of urbanisation or achievements in the area of medicine and science. A homogeneous yet at the same time very elastic construct of the evil eye helps evil eye believers to interpret their personal and social failures, unfavourable circumstances of life, and lack of luck or fortune. 2. As a cultural construct, the contemporary Lithuanian evil eye complex may be characterised by flexibility, vagueness, dynamism, and a wide variety of forms of its representation. Developed perpetually in the processes of social and reflexive interactions, the evil eye representation in contemporary Lithuania undergoes endless modification, remaining, however, stable and resistant to changes. 3. In contemporary Lithuania, the fear of evil eye features not only among elderly people with relatively lower levels of schooling and livelihoods mostly connected with agriculture. The younger generation adopts the traditional notion of evil eye, enriching it with the elements of popular culture. 4. In contemporary Lithuania, the evil eye representation is not balanced from the point of view of gender. The idea of evil eye is expressed and stressed more intensively by females. Even in contemporary Lithuania, a typical possessor of the evil eye is an elderly dark-eyed female – an inquisitive, intrusive, talkative and envious neighbour, co-worker or relative. 5. It is commonly believed that the most vulnerable evil eye... [to full text]

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the representation of landscape and place across a range of genres of contemporary literature and aims to look beyond literary studies to draw on interdisciplinary dialogues with research in other fields, particularly in cultural geography, to establish new exchanges. My work looks to critical paradigms from both disciplines to devise innovative new ways of thinking about landscape writing and to assess both the form and politics of place. As such, it addresses the poetics and narratives of spatial texts. The thesis attends to a survey of contemporary writing and comprises three extended single-author case studies - of works by Ciaran Carson, W.G. Sebald, and lain Sinclair - followed by a comparative study of texts by Robert Macfarlane and Kathleen Jamie. The key findings of this research are that these writers share a combinatory approach to writing landscapes that draws on experiential, practised engagements with place, but also situates this first-hand knowledge within longer literary and pictorial traditions and histories of representing those same places. Contrary to some critical formulations, in creative texts these two emphases have not been incommensurate. As a result, my work aims to contribute to critical and theoretical debates through close reading. Each case study matches a writer to a mode of apprehending place - Sebald with picturing, Carson with mapping, Sinclair with walking, Macfarlane and Jamie with engaging - to draw out a range of sites at which representation and experience interact. The thesis concludes with an assessment of these accounts not as definitive versions of places but as subjective testimonies intervening in their making.

Abstract:
The text focuses on the problem of contemporary nomadism, which can be observed in a variety of forms in our culture and everyday life too, in its relation to the revival of cultural life. It aims at introducing causes, sources, representation, forms, and consequences of contemporary nomadism in our culture. We shall combine the contemporary representation of nomadism and pay our attention to new forms of community life, which have their base in the fellowship, rootedness and self-fullfilment of individuals. The text deals also with the new communicative concept of community, which is dynamic, creative and innovative. The community will be understood as an open phenomenon that is oriented not only to its preservation but also to its creation and reproduction, which is willingly constructed within the process of social communication.

Abstract:
This rapid literature review collates evidence from academic, policy focussed and grey literature on progress on incorporating gender perspectives in peace operations since 2018, including the deployment of female peacekeepers, and the emerging issues in this field. Key messages that emerge from this review include: The focus on women’s participation in peace processes has led to several initiatives and efforts to promote increased representation, the multidimensional nature of the UN’s women, peace, and security (WPS) agenda is illustrative of the complexity of contemporary peace operations. The new and emergent issues in National Action Plans (NAP) on Women, Peace and Security. Critiques of Resolution 1325 suggest that while the resolution provides some examples of what a gender perspective means in the context of a peace agreement, it does not define what it means to apply a gender perspective to peace processes. Gender perspectives are largely absent from peace negotiations. Despite the evolution of this agenda, most contemporary peace processes are still top-down, elite-driven exercises that contribute to marginalisation and exclusion. Whilst there is high-level commitment towards the strategy and what it aims to achieve, institutional barriers, assumptions, and politics undermine its implementation. Key challenges identified in the literature, related to incorporating Gender Perspectives in Peace Operations include. Buy-in from leadership, Mandate and context, Gender and expertise, Terminology, Under-representation of women in peacekeeping. Meaningful participation, Gap between norms and provisions, and Practical/logistical/training issues in implementing the WPS agenda.

Abstract:
Meetings with the majority of the Technical Panel for the Development of an Interactive Database of Contemporary Material Properties for Fire Modeling project were held on June 29 and June 30, 2020. The major subjects of discussion included the list of proposed materials to be tested and characterized, the properties for the database, and the experimental and analytical methods to determine the properties for the database. A list of 101 materials divided into 11 categories were identified for inclusion in the database. The topics of variability in materials and aging of products and furniture items was discussed and it was concluded that investigating these variations is outside the scope of the project in this phase. The list of properties to be stored in the database for each material as well as proposed experimental methods to determine each property were discussed in the Technical Panel meetings. The discussion emphasized that the priorities for the properties represented in the database are dependent on the expected users for the database. Three potential user groups and the sets of properties that each group would likely require were identified. To ensure that the data contained in the database is useful for modeling, it was determined that prioritization would be given to complete sets of properties to be measured and stored in the database. Over the course of the two meetings, several tools were proposed to make the database easier for model practitioners to use. Once such tool included functionality to output lines of code for the models or entire model input files to simplify the process of inserting the properties into computa- tional fire models. Another tool that was discussed would involve automatically extracting derived properties from data sets or translating between complex and simple representations of burning. The next phase of the project includes conducting research to finalize the structure of the database and finalizing experimental procedures and protocols to populate the database.

Abstract:
The goal of fire service training is to prepare students for the conditions and challenges that they face on the fireground. Among the challenges that firefighters routinely face on the fireground are ventilation-controlled fires. The hazard of these fires has been highlighted by several line-of-duty deaths and injuries in which a failure to understand the fire dynamics produced by these fires has been a contributing factor. The synthetic fuels that commonly fill contemporary homes tend to result in ventilation-controlled conditions. While synthetic fuels are common on the residential fireground, the fuels that firefighters use for fire training are more often representative of natural, wood-based fuels. In order to better understand the fire dynamics of these training fires, a series of experiments was conducted in a concrete live fire training building in an effort to evaluate the fidelity and safety of two training fuels, pallets and OSB, and compare the fire dynamics created by these fuels to those created by a fuel load representative of a living room set with furniture items with a synthetic components. Additionally, the effects of the concrete live fire training building on the fire dynamics were examined. The two training fuel loads were composed of wooden pallets and straw, and pallets, straw, and oriented strand board (OSB). The results indicated that the high leakage area of the concrete live fire training building relative to the fuel load prevented the training fuel packages from becoming ventilation-controlled and prevented the furniture package from entering a state of oxygen-depleted decay. The furniture experiments progressed to flashover once ventilation was provided. Under the conditions tested, the wood based fuels, combined with the construction features of this concrete live fire training building, limited the ability to teach ventilation-controlled fire behavior and the associated firefighting techniques. Additionally, it was shown that the potential for thermal injury to firefighters participating in a training evolution existed well below thresholds where firefighter PPE would be damaged.
