Messey, Orlane. ""C’est du sport, tu t’attendais à quoi ?". D'un entre-soi permissif à un sport inclusif : le cas du roller derby français." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2024. http://www.theses.fr/2024UBFCC001.
Abstract:
Le roller derby est une discipline sportive américaine, apparue en France en 2009. Sa diffusion en Europe est notamment liée au film Bliss qui contribue à la popularisation de cet ancien sport, recréé en 2001 aux abords des milieux musicaux alternatifs du Texas. Le roller derby s’implante en France à partir d’un modèle de pratique carnavalesque, à travers lequel les équipes se plaisent à détourner les codes du sport mainstream. De plus, celles-ci tendent à s’organiser initialement autour de la logique punk do it yourself (DIY), qui consistent à refuser les logiques capitalistes en privilégiant l’autogestion. Dix ans après l’apparition de cette pratique en France, ce travail de thèse en sciences du sport entend comprendre la structuration du roller derby face au modèle sportif « traditionnel », mainstream. À partir d’une approche sociologique et ethnographique, il s’agit d’interroger la manière dont le roller derby français parvient à se structurer en dehors des cadres dominants. Le constat d’une euphémisation évidente des marqueurs subversifs et l’adoption des codes du milieu sportif fédéral suggèrent l’inscription dans la pratique dans un processus de sportivisation. Pourtant, celle-ci n’est pas ici synonyme d’une récupération par les instances sportives. Cette normalisation de la pratique prend place, au contraire, au sein même des équipes. En mobilisant les cadres de l’interactionnisme symbolique, cette recherche met en lumière le rôle joué par les actrices de la pratique au cours de cette sportivisation et les manières dont celle-ci négocient un cadre de pratique articulé entre détournement et appropriation du modèle sportif dominant. L’enjeu principal est ainsi de montrer le passage d’une pratique dite « permissive » à un sport « inclusif ». Si les joueuses défendent aujourd’hui leur place sur les terrains du sport mainstream, l’affichage d’une inclusion des minorités de genre s’est progressivement substitué aux marqueurs – carnavalesques – de subversion des codes sportifs. À mesure que les équipes quittent les « marges » du sport pour investir ses institutions, la subversion laisse place à l’inclusion, comme un ultime insigne de distance vis-à-vis du centre du milieu sportif. Néanmoins, des équipes continuent de résister au poids du modèle compétitif. À celles qui s’emparent de nouveau du DIY comme d’un moyen d’organiser autrement la pratique sportive (sans hiérarchie, de manière horizontale), d’autres choisissent de privilégier le folklore comme mode de résistance à l’homogénéisation de la pratiqueRoller derby is an American sports discipline that emerged in France in 2009. Its spread in Europe is notably linked to the film Bliss, which contributes to the popularization of this ancient sport, recreated in 2001 in the alternative music scenes of Texas. Roller derby establishes itself in France based on a carnival and permissive practice model through which the teams hijacked the mainstream sport. Furthermore, teams initially organized around the punk do-it-yourself (DIY) logic, which involved rejecting capitalist logic and favoring self-management. Ten years after the emergence of this practice in France, this sports science thesis aims to understand the structuring of roller derby in relation to the "traditional," mainstream sports model. Using a sociological and ethnographic approach, the aim is to examine how French roller derby managed to structure itself outside dominant frameworks. The observation of an obvious euphemization of subversive markers and the adoption of codes from the federal sports environment suggest the incorporation of the practice into a sportification process. However, this is not synonymous with a takeover by sports authorities here. On the contrary, this normalization of practice takes place within the teams themselves. By mobilizing symbolic interactionism frameworks, this research highlights the role played by the female practitioners during this sportsification and how they negotiate a practice framework articulated between the diversion and appropriation of the dominant sports model. The main challenge is to show the transition from a so-called "permissive" practice to an "inclusive" sport. While female players now defend their place on mainstream sports fields, the display of inclusion of gender minorities has gradually replaced the carnivalesque markers of subversion of sports codes. As teams are leaving the margins of the sport to enter its institutions, subversion gives way to inclusion, as a final marker of distance from the core of the sports environment. Nevertheless, some teams continue to resist the pressure of the competitive model. Some embrace DIY as a means of organizing sports practice differently (without hierarchy, but horizontally), while others choose to prioritize folklore as a mode of resistance to the homogenization of practice

Abstract:
AFRIKAANS: Die Suid-Afrikaanse owerheid het 'n verantwoordelikheid in die lewering van dienste ter bevrediging van bepaalde behoeftes van die samelewing. Openbare bestuurders in die Suid-Afrikaanse staatsdiens behoort oor besondere vermoëns en kwaliteite te beskik om die staatsdiens doeltreffend in 'n vinnig veranderde omgewing te bestuur ten einde gemeenskapsbehoeftes te bevredig. Dit is die verantwoordelikheid van elke open bare bestuurder om die toegekende organisasie-eenhede doeltreffend te bestuur. Die openbare bestuurder kan nie na willekeur die administratiewe en openbare bestuursaktiwiteite uitoefen nie. Die normatiewe rigsnoere van eerbiediging van die oppergesag, openbare aanspreeklikheid en verantwoordelikheid, openbare doeltreffendheid, die toepassing van die administratiefreg, eerbiediging van samelewingswaardes, hoe etiese norme en standaarde, asook sosiale gelykstelling en geregtigheid moet deurentyd deur die openbare bestuurder gehandhaaf word. Die doel met hierdie verhandeling is om die rol van die openbare bestuurder in die ontwikkeling van 'n organisasiekultuur te bepaal. Die woorde "organisasie", "organisasie-ontwikkeling" en "organisasiekultuur" het 'n direkte invloed op die verhandeling en daarom is genoemde woorde duidelik omskryf en betekenisse daaraan gekoppel. Die openbare sektor is dinamies en die departemente word aan voortdurende veranderinge blootgestel wat tot herorganisering lei wat weer 'n invloed op die organisasiekultuur uitoefen. Organisasies kan nie op dieselfde wyse hervorm word nie en daarom verskil kulture van organisasie tot organisasie. In die organisasie vorm daar soms subgroepe wat oor sterk subkulture beskik en openbare bestuurders behoort hierdie subgroepe tot voordeel van die organisasie aan te wend deur byvoorbeeld gesonde kompetisie tussen die onderskeie subgroepe aan te moedig. Daar bestaan geen “beste” tegniek vir die bestuur van kultuurverandering nie. Elke openbare bestuurder behoort dus die tegniek te kies of tegnieke te kombineer wat die beste by sy of haar spesifieke omstandighede sal inpas. Openbare bestuurders behoort 'n positiewe ingesteldheid rakende die organisasiekultuur aan die res van die organisasielede oor te dra. Die openbare bestuurder in die Suid-Afrikaanse konteks funksioneer in 'n milieu wat verskeie eise stel. Omgewingsfaktore in die staatsdiens bly nooit konstant nie en veranderinge, in byvoorbeeld, die politieke, sosiale, ekonomiese en tegnologiese omgewing het teweeg gebring dat die kultuur van die organisasie beïnvloed word en moet op so 'n wyse bestuur word dat dit tot voordeel van die organisasie en die samelewing is. Die veranderde omgewing waarbinne die openbare bestuurder optree, vereis die bestuur van die organisasiekultuur. Openbare bestuurders behoort 'n bewuswording in die organisasie rakende die organisasiekultuur te skep en tot die besef kom dat die organisatoriese, kulturele en strategiese veranderingsprosesse bestuur moet word ten einde gestelde doelwitte te bereik. ENGLISH: The South African government has a responsibility in the rendering of essential services to satisfy certain needs of the community. Public managers employed by the South African civil service ought to possess specific abilities and qualities to manage the civil service effectively in a rapidly changing environment. It is the responsibility of each public manager to manage the allocated organizational unit under his authority. Public managers may not conduct the administrative and public management activities in a random way. The normative guidelines of honouring the political supremacy, public accountability and responsibility, application of the administrative law, honouring community values, upholding high ethical norms, as well as social equality and justice should continuously be maintained by the public manager. The objective of this paper is to determine the role of the public manager in developing an organizational culture. The meaning of the word “organization”, “organizational development” and “organizational culture” has a direct influence on the objective of this paper and therefore these words have been clearly defined and explained. The civil service is dynamic and the departments are subjedt to change. This leads to re-organization, which in turn will influence the organizational culture. Organizations can not be reformed in a similar manner, and therefore, cultures vary among different organizations. Groups with strong subcultures may develop within the existing organizational culture and the public manager should utilize these subcultures to the advantage of the organization by establishing, for example, healthy competition among these groups. A “best” technique to manage an organizational culture does not exist, and each public manager should select a technique or combination of techniques appropriate to the specific situation. Public managers should convey a positive attitude towards the organizational culture and towards his/her subordinates. The public manager in the South African civil service functions in a milieu that holds many challenges. Environmental factors in the civil service constantly change, and changes in the political, social, economic and technological environments influence the organizational culture and has to be managed in such a way that it is advantageous to the organization and society. The changing environment, in which the South African Public Service operates, demands the management of an organizational culture. Public managers should develop a cultural awareness and realize that organizational, cultural and strategic change processes should be managed in order to reach the set objectives.Dissertation (MA (Public Administration))--University of Pretoria, 2006.

Abstract:
A revista Atlântico foi parte integrante de um projeto maior açambarcado por Portugal e Brasil no começo da década de 1940. Para sermos mais precisos, 1941 é o ano da assinatura do acordo cultural luso-brasileiro que resultou, dentre outros elementos, na idealização de um projeto cujo cerne assenta-se na criação de uma revista de cultura e arte. Desse processo, surge Atlântico, revista que deve seu nome ao intento de encontrar uma palavra suficientemente elástica, ondulante, para sintetizar o vago e o concreto das nossas aspirações, o sonho e a realidade do nosso ideal, segundo as palavras de um dos seus diretores, António Ferro. Fundada em 1942, a revista Atlântico tem como propugnadores o diretor do Secretariado da Propaganda Nacional (SPN) de Portugal, António Ferro, e o diretor do Departamento de Imprensa e Propaganda (DIP), Lourival Fontes. A presente pesquisa, que abrange o período de 1941 (ano da assinatura do Acordo Cultural luso-brasileiro) a 1945 (que marca tanto o fim da vigência do DIP quanto o término da primeira fase de Atlântico), pretende discutir a idéia defendida por seus articulistas de que a natureza da revista Atlântico, isto é, por ser um periódico de cultura, de literatura e de arte, abstêm-se de tratar dos problemas sociais, políticos ou econômicos do mundo moderno, até quando dizem respeito à vida do Brasil ou de Portugal. Ademais, pelo fato de congregar um feixe de intelectuais bastante diversificado, a análise sistemática da revista Atlântico objetiva avaliar e compreender a maneira pela qual autores e obras aparecem no corpo da publicação.The Atlântico magazine was part of a larger project encompassed by Portugal and Brazil in the early 1940s. More precisely, in 1941 is signed the Luso-Brazilian culture agreement that resulted, among other elements, in the idealization of a project based on creating a magazine of culture and art. From this process arises Atlântico magazine, which owes its name to the attempt of finding a word sufficiently elastic, undulating to synthesize the vague and concrete of our aspirations, dreams and the reality of our vision, in the words of one of its directors António Ferro. Founded in 1942, the Atlântico magazine has had as proponents, António Ferro, the director of Secretariado da Propaganda Nacional (SPN) (Director of the Bureau of Propaganda Nacional) of Portugal and the director of the brazilian Departamento de Imprensa e Propaganda (DIP) (Department of Press and Propaganda), Lourival Fontes. This article, which covers the period from 1941 (year of the signing of the Cultural Luso-Brazilian) to 1945 (which marks both the end of the term of the DIP and the end of the first phase of the Atlântico), aims to discuss the idea defended by its writers that the nature of the Atlântico magazine is to be a journal of culture, literature and art, avoiding dealing with social problems, political or economic in the modern world, even when they concern to life in Brazil or Portugal. Moreover, the fact of bringing a bundle of intellectual rather diverse, systematic analysis of the Atlântico magazine aims to evaluate and understand the way in which authors and works appearing in the body of the publication.

Abstract:
Independent music is a complex concept. It has meant different things at different historical moments of popular music and within academic, music press and industry discourses. Even though what independent music refers to might not be substantive, it has tended to signify an oppositional ethos comprising practices related to maintaining distinction from commercialised popular music. This study is about exploring how contemporary independent musicians practice independence within the Central Sydney independent music scene. A socio-cultural formation of like-minded, largely middle-class musicians and enthusiasts involved with independent music currently exists within the geographical region of Central Sydney. Exploration of this local phenomenon necessitates inquiring about the contemporary state of this scene, including how and why it takes the form that it does, and how might independence take particular forms. To respond to such issues, semi-structured interviews with 15 individuals of the ages of 18 and above who are involved with the scene, supplemented with participant observation at live gigs and relevant textual research were conducted in between 2017 and 2019. Additionally, online social media profiles of influential artists and institutions integral to this scene were analysed. The study finds that accumulated economic resources, musical literacies, social networks, and experience associated with long-term and recurrent involvement with music-related work are crucial factors in the ways participants fashion cultural practices based around aesthetic independence. Members of this scene position themselves through particular configurations of resources, strategies and economic exchanges, which allow them to both construct their living and practice aesthetic independence through passion projects of creative experimentations within a sustainable milieu in ways that would be difficult while following imperatives of mainstream music markets.

Borchi, Alice. "Culture and economic crisis : cultural value in Italy from 2008 to the present day." Thesis, University of Warwick, 2017. http://wrap.warwick.ac.uk/108584/.
Abstract:
This doctoral work is based on analysis of the discourse on cultural value in contemporary Italy, what are the 'grand narratives' that characterize this discourse and what is the relationship between them. In particular, great relevance is given to the concepts of “neoliberalism” and “commons”. The application of these two economical terms to the field of culture is particularly relevant in the Italian discourse: in 2011, Italy saw the rise of protest groups made of professionals from the arts sector who opposed practices influenced by the theories on the commons to the implementation of neoliberal-inspired policies. In fact, since the beginning of the economic crisis in 2008, the discontent of the Italian population with the implementation of austerity policies and the lack of political and economic stability caused an uprising involvement in political activism. The cultural sector, in particular, was facing a lack of state funding; in addition, many young professionals had been struggling to find a paid job, especially in the theatre sector. The dissatisfaction of the emergent creative class led to a series of demonstrations and campaigns that asked for the recognition of the rights of arts workers. Many abandoned buildings, especially former theatres, were occupied and became spaces dedicated to artistic and political experimentation. Two of these organisations are discussed in the case studies: Teatro Valle Occupato, in Rome, and Rebeldía, in Pisa. The idea of cultural value promoted by these organisations is analysed in relation to the one reflected by Italian cultural policy after 2008. This thesis shows not only how cultural value is shaped by economic factors such as austerity, but also how it represents a battleground where different ways of understanding politics and policy clash, mingle and sometimes overlap. Furthermore, it shows that activist forms of arts management can develop their own pathways to innovation, filling a vacuum left by cultural policy.

Campagna, Desirée. "The Impacts of Participatory Governance on Cultural Development: Evidence from European Capitals of Culture." Doctoral thesis, Università degli studi di Padova, 2019. http://hdl.handle.net/11577/3422217.
Abstract:
Participatory approaches to cultural decision-making are increasingly supported in the international and European discourses as means to foster cultural development, promoting capacity building, legitimacy, and social capital. However, their beneficial effects are both empirically contradictory and theoretically under-investigated.
With the aim of providing an evidence-based account of the function of participatory decision-making in culture, this thesis analyses how, why, and under which circumstances participatory governance impacted on cultural development in four projects promoted in the two European Capitals of Culture of 2013 - Marseille-Provence (France) and Košice (Slovakia) –under the umbrella of the “City and Citizens” criterion.
The thesis combines the theoretical assumptions of the “expansive” theories of democracy (Warren, 1992) with the “pragmatic conception” proposed by Fung (2007) and adopts the methodological tools offered by the theory-testing variant of process tracing. Hence, it advances an analytical framework of causal mechanisms able to explain how and why the impacts of participatory governance of culture can change within different contextual conditions.
This work defines cultural development as a long-term process that includes cultural production and reception and is sustained by a network of cultural relations. In addition, it conceptualizes participatory governance as a three-dimensional institutional space (including representation, communication, and power delegation) that can trigger developmental dynamics thanks to consensus-oriented face-to-face dialogue among a variety of cultural stakeholders.
Referring to the empirical evidence collected in the four case studies, the thesis argues that the impacts of participatory governance on cultural development depend on the intensity of trust that is reached among the actors involved in the process.
In presence of fully-fledged trust, as showed in the project PARCeque (Marseille) and in the Exchanger Obrody (Košice), participatory governance can lead to cultural development, activating a reinforcing chain of capacities, legitimacy, and social capital that nurture cultural relations in the long-term. On the contrary, in absence of fully-fledged trust (i.e. mistrust and “calculus-based” trust), as proved by the project Jardins Possibles (Marseille) and the Exchanger Važecká (Košice), participatory governance of culture can exacerbate feelings of manipulation or group dynamics, fostering contestation movements or isolated cultural production.

Previous issue date: 2012-02-27This research aims to identify the process of appropriation of audio visual (in digital video) for collective symbolic production (participatory video practice that expresses popular culture) in a socio-cultural context where the minorities are. Therefore, we based this study on the students‟ experience of the film and video workshops held by Cinema para Todos (Culture Point Cine for All), in Natal, RN. Culture Point is the basis of the project Programa Nacional de Cultura, Educa??o e Cidadania Cultura Viva (National Program of Culture, Education and Citizenship - Living Culture) of the Brazilian Ministry of Culture. In 2010, the Cine for All developed three film and video workshops in the state of Rio Grande do Norte (Northeastern of Brazil), in the municipalities of A?u, Lajes and S?o Gon?alo do Amarante, within a public policy project of socio-cultural inclusion. These three workshops are the focus of this empirical investigation. To support the analysis of this research we consider that the spaces of workshops are sites of the social practices origin, assuming they show the development of the changes of actions that generate new practices. In this socio-cultural context the students as interlocutors process the communicative culture mediation, where come from the logics of action (using digital video) to become a mediatic practice (video auto ethnographic). With the overall goal set and the field of investigative action delimited we considered the methodology of case study suitable for the observation of the object, because it is a phenomenon of modernity, occurring in a context of real life and with little or no control over events. Participant observation and interviews was also applied to this case study. The analytical theoretical support comes from the notion of mediation by Jes?s Mart?n-Barbero and the concept of habitus by Pierre Bourdieu. The research found that a new way of communicating has been developing by this social group, and this reflects the technological change experienced by them. The auto ethnographic videos, short movies, reveal an allegorical trial of the mainstream media, because while they use the mainstream format, they rework the aesthetic, but without revising the history, in fact they proposing to retell the history of themselves full of colorful details and with richness of their forgotten popular culture.
Esta pesquisa tem como objetivo identificar o processo de apropria??o do recurso audiovisual (v?deo digital) para a produ??o coletiva simb?lica (pr?tica videogr?fica participativa que expressa a cultura popular) num contexto sociocultural onde est?o as minorias. Para tanto, baseamos este estudo na experi?ncia dos integrantes das oficinas de forma??o em cinema e v?deo ministradas pelo Ponto de Cultura Cinema para Todos, localizado em Natal, RN. Ponto de Cultura (PC) ? o projeto estruturante do Programa Nacional de Cultura, Educa??o e Cidadania Cultura Viva do Minist?rio da (MinC). Em 2010, o PC Cinema para Todos desenvolveu tr?s oficinas cinema v?deo nos munic?pios norte-rio-grandenses A?u, Lajes e S?o Gon?alo do Amarante, dentro de um projeto de pol?tica p?blica de inclus?o sociocultural. Estas tr?s oficinas comp?em o recorte emp?rico desta investiga??o. Para fundamentar a an?lise deste estudo investigativo consideramos que os espa?os das oficinas s?o locais de pr?ticas sociais embrion?rias, pressupondo-se que sejam reveladores do desenvolvimento das modifica??es das a??es que geram novas pr?ticas. Nesse contexto sociocultural, os agentes comunit?rios assumem o papel de interlocutores e processam as media??es comunicativas da cultura onde as l?gicas de produ??o passam da a??o (uso do v?deo digital) para a pr?tica cultural midi?tica (v?deo auto etnogr?fico). A estrat?gia metodol?gica de estudo de caso foi considerada adequada para a observa??o do objeto, por se tratar de um fen?meno da contemporaneidade, estar inserido em um contexto da vida real e proporcionar pouco ou nenhum controle sobre os eventos. A observa??o participante e a entrevista tamb?m se aliaram ao estudo de caso. Contribu?ram para o suporte te?rico anal?tico desta investiga??o a no??o de media??o formulada por Jes?s Mart?n-Barbero e o conceito de habitus de Pierre Bourdieu. Foi poss?vel identificar que a nova forma de comunicar reflete a mudan?a tecnol?gica cultural vivenciada pelo grupo social. Os v?deos auto etnogr?ficos revelam uma experimenta??o aleg?rica da m?dia hegem?nica, pois ao mesmo tempo em que se apropriam da linguagem, reelaboram a est?tica, sem revisar a hist?ria, mas se propondo a recont?-la com detalhes pitorescos e esquecidos da cultura popular.

Di Cavalcanti's official production is the subject of studies in many disciplines, each of which takes its own particular approach. This official production is understood to be all of the verbal-imagery work produced by the artist throughout his career in order to meet the demands of the art market. However, the book Cartas de Amor à Divina, a compendium containing letters, cards, drawings and reproductions of portraits of Ivette Bahia Rocha, the "Divina", is understood as unofficial production. Published in 1987, the book records the fifteen-year loving relationship of Di Cavalcanti and Ivette. The set reveals the drama of an older man, 62 at the time, who cannot control a 23-year-old woman. Ivette met the painter in 1959 on a visit to his studio in Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro, and became an assiduous studio guest, occupying, little by little, all spaces of the artist's life: she was his secretary, financial administrator, muse and wife. The relationship ended in 1974, during the middle of a political and cultural transformation in Brazil. Structured from the concepts that guide the study of History of Culture, this study is dedicated to analyzing the verbal imagery content contained in Di Cavalcanti's epistolary, which was transformed into a book in 1987. The goal is to identify the reasons for which the relationship's dynamic was conflicted and how such subversions interfered or not in the painter s artistic production.
A produção oficial de Di Cavalcanti é objeto de estudos em diferentes disciplinas e, abordada de forma diversa em cada uma delas. Entende-se como produção oficial toda obra imagético-verbal produzida pelo pintor ao longo de sua carreira artística e, com objetivo de atender as demandas do mercado de arte. Porém, entende-se como produção oficiosa o livro Cartas de Amor à Divina, um compêndio contendo, cartas, cartas-desenhos e reproduções dos retratos de Ivette Bahia Rocha, a destinatária. Publicado em 1987, o livro é um registro dos quinze anos de relacionamento afetivo vivido por Di Cavalcanti e Ivette, a Divina. O conjunto revela o drama de um homem que não consegue controlar uma jovem de 23 anos, tendo ele à época 62 anos de idade. Ivette conheceu o pintor em 1959 em visita ao seu atelier, em Copacabana, no Rio de Janeiro. Tornou-se uma das convivas assíduas do atelier, ocupando, pouco a pouco, todos os espaços na vida do artista. Foi secretária, administradora financeira, musa e mulher. O relacionamento terminou em 1974 em meio à transformação político e cultural pela qual passava o Brasil. Estruturada a partir dos conceitos que orientam os estudos da História Cultural, esta pesquisa dedica-se a análise do conteúdo imagético-verbal contido no epistolário de Di Cavalcanti transformado em livro em 1987.

Downes, Julia. "DIY queer feminist (sub)cultural resistance in the UK." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2009. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/2383/.
Abstract:
This thesis examines the role of music, power and DIY (sub)culture involved in resistance to hegemonic discourses of gender, sexuality and feminism (re)circulated within dominant society and culture. In particular, attention is focused upon young peoples' experiences within riot gml and contemporary queer feminist music (sub )cultures situated within the fabric of social change and protest cultures of contemporary Britain. A critical interdisciplinary approach and set of qualitative methodologies were employed to understand music as collective social action that incorporated (i) oral histories of British riot gml, (ii) an auto/ethnography of DIY queer feminist (sub)culturallife, and (iii) case studies of queer and feminist amateur music-makers. I argue that music provides participants with a set of vital spatial, emotional and sonic resources to provoke radical political imaginaries, identities, communities and life-courses into being. In the context of a neo-liberal post-feminist consumer society, the creation of DIY queer feminist music (sub )culture attempts to resist the disarticulation of feminism and the dominant regulation of gender and sexual diversities. These social practices offer critical insights into the continuities of the (sub)cultural resistance of girls, young women and queers throughout modem history and demands the recognition of (sub)cultural resistance as crucial to British feminism within the wider transformations of protest and activism in contemporary society.

Abstract:
Language maintenance investigations have, for the most part, been limited to the study of the effect that socio-cultural factors have on language preservation. Unfortunately, language maintenance has been studied in tandem with language shift. Language shift has generated more interested from scholars than has language maintenance. This dissertation is an attempt to open up new ways to look at the study of language maintenance by presenting a theoretical framework whereby the domain of language use is the principal focus of study. I studied the domain of religion, subdivided into several dimensions. One dimension, that of ideology, is at the center of my study. The main objective of the dissertation was to identify ideological themes within the doctrinal body of the church selected for the study. Twenty-five such themes were identified and analyzed to determine the ways in which the themes influence language maintenance among the church members. The case study approach and the use of several ethnographic data collection methods were employed to assist us in having a better understanding of the phenomenon of language maintenance and to pave the way for future language maintenance studies.

Griffin, Naomi. "Understanding DIY punk as activism : realising DIY ethics through cultural production, community and everyday negotiations." Thesis, Northumbria University, 2015. http://nrl.northumbria.ac.uk/30251/.
Abstract:
This thesis explores the production of DIY punk alternative cultures, communities and identities as activism. Based on an ethnographic study of DIY punk in North East England, it combines and integrates the disciplinary approaches of sociology, cultural studies and geography. Using an interpretivist epistemology, the research focuses on DIY punk participants’ subjective realities and experiences, through participant observation, of punk events and shows, and interviews. Carried out by a researcher who was both embedded in the scene, as a punk participant, and outside it, as an academic PhD student, it enhances methodological and epistemological debates about the ‘insider/outsider’ research stance and subjectivities. This thesis promotes DIY punk as a relevant and rich area for scholarship. It theorises DIY punk participation as cultural production (Moore, 2007), existing within a framework of activism, as participants attempt to bring into being ‘hoped-for futures’ (Chatterton & Pickerill, 2010) using a multitude of tactics. Identifying multi-layered and multi-scalar acts of resistance, the narrowness of the concept of activism in the literature is critiqued. A more inclusive conceptualisation of activism, as more than oppositional, is proposed. A DIY ethic is theorised as anti-capitalist and interconnected with other complexly interwoven ideologies and politics. The everyday challenges that participants face, in negotiating a DIY punk ethic, and the interface between DIY punk culture and ‘mainstream’ society, are examined. Participants narratively construct DIY punk through ongoing negotiations, which affect how participants produce and interact with and in DIY punk spaces. The research contributes to scholarship on punk and community by arguing that DIY punk cultural production is strengthened by notions of community. It has wider relevance by exploring the meaning of community in a unique cultural context. It offers a definition of community that recognises DIY punk communities as imagined (Anderson, 1991) but sensitive to the significance of place.

Jones, Ellis Nathaniel. "Platform DIY : examining the impact of social media on cultural resistance in contemporary DIY music." Thesis, University of Leeds, 2018. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/21036/.
Abstract:
DIY (“do-it-yourself”) music is a cultural form which, following in the footsteps of punk, has historically emphasised the autonomous production and distribution of music as a meaningful, “resistant” alternative to the consumption of “mainstream” popular culture. However, the new forms of value-creation within the digital economy capitalise on autonomous production in new ways: platforms like YouTube and SoundCloud thrive on “user-generated content” and “sharing”, and the literature suggests that digital labour involves a blurring of the traditional divisions between production and consumption, and between work and leisure. “DIY” activity is increasingly the norm for aspiring cultural workers and others engaged in utilising new technologies and platforms to create and share their own work. Drawing upon fieldwork with DIY music practitioners in Leeds undertaken August 2015 – December 2016, as well as upon my own long-term engagement in this field, this thesis addresses the question: what happens to DIY’s capacity to offer cultural resistance when it is increasingly normalised by, and captured within, “platform capitalism”? I adapt Nancy Fraser’s approach to social justice (which focusses on maldistribution and misrecognition) to consider cultural resistance in terms of both inequality and issues of identity, including self-recognition. I argue that social media usage in this context has a number of pernicious effects: encouraging individualist measures of success, fostering unproductively antagonistic relationships with other scenes, promoting an unhealthily aspirational logic of optimisation, and increasing maldistribution by “deskilling” DIY practitioners. However, practitioners also resist social media norms in important ways, through imbuing platform metrics with ambiguous social meanings, maintaining a reluctance to engage fully with marketing, and through their offline activities. I argue that affordances are an important (but often mis-applied) means of understanding how the conflicting aims of platforms and users result in social media acting as a contested space of political and cultural tension. Whilst this is an examination of a musical culture, my original contributions to knowledge also relate to critical social media studies, and demonstrate that key debates and concerns (self-branding, the quantified self, hope labour) might be advanced through close attention to the ways in which platforms’ affordances and ideologies are interpreted and engaged with by specific user- groups.

Abstract:
The Swedish civil defense during the Cold War Era was a well-developed and well-planned organization in comparison to many other countries. This caused civil defense ideas to come closer to individual citizens’ everyday lives and influence how they should adapt to the threat of nuclear war, thus creating a culture of civil defense. The purpose of this thesis is to elucidate what this militarization of everyday life looked like in Sweden during the Cold War and how it affected people’s everyday life. This is done through studying a civil defense journal between 1945-1975. The articles in the journal are analyzed by how they are portraying the day-to-day life in the context of civil defense. Partly through articles about propaganda and various civil defense courses and exercises, and partly through articles portraying the physical militarization of society, primarily fallout shelters and bunkers. Of particular interest is the contrast between the dark Cold War narrative and the narrative concerning the security and comfort provided by the welfare state. Finally, the thesis argues that the journal and its work can be seen in the context of militarization of everyday life. It tried to spread its militarizing vision in society, and did – incomparison to other countries – succeed in that pursuit. Militarization played a vital role in reaching out to the public, and in disseminating the idea of a welfare state that takes good care of its citizens, even during the hardest of times.

Thesis (MDram)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The actor's work consists of communication, in other words the transfer of intellectual and emotional ideas. The voice is undoubtedly the most important means of auditory communication. The development and maintenance of the actor's voice is, therefore, an essential requirement for effective communication. The vocal development of actors and singers is aimed at releasing the breathing process, the passage of sound through the body and the organs of articulation, as well as the elimination of obstructive psychophysical inhibitions. The same body parts are used for the production of sound in both speaking and singing. The vocal instrument may be divided into three parts, namely the respiratory system, the glottic system and the resonators. The structure and functioning of the voice as an instrument is in many respects somewhat complex. Knowledge of the structure and functioning of the vocal system facilitates the prevention and elimination of speech problems. Speech and singing, as subdivisions of voice production, are both closely linked to the functioning of certain body parts, and it is for this reason that singing helps to improve speech. For instance, because singing demands a larger breath capacity and greater breath control, singing techniques contribute positively to the development of the actor's voice. Various voice production errors and problems encountered in actors, such as breathing-related problems, defective resonance adaptations and defective projection, can be eliminated by means of technical exercises. An analysis of the techniques for speech and singing reveal such a strong coincidence that they can both be classed as voice production techniques. A singing-based approach to vocal training will, therefore, have only a positive effect on the actor's voice production.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die akteur se werk behels kommunikasie, dit wil sê die oordra van intellektuele en emosionele idees. Die stem is meestalonontbeerlik as ouditiewe kommunikasiemiddel. Daarom is die ontwikkeling en instandhouding van die akteur se stem van wesenlike belang. Die fokus van stemontwikkeling by akteurs en sangers word gerig op die bevryding van die asemhalingsproses, die klankgang deur die liggaam, die artikulasieorgane en die uitwissing van stremmende psigo-fisiese inhibisies. In spraak en sang word dieselfde liggaamsdele vir klankproduksie aangewend. Die vokale instrument kan in drie verdeel word, naamlik die asemhalingstelsel, die glottale stelsel en die resonators. Die bou en werking van die stem as instrument is in vele opsigte kompleks. Kennis van die bou en werking van die vokale instrument kan egter tot die voorkoming of verbetering van stem- en spraakprobleme lei. Spraak en sang as onderafdelings van stemproduksie skakelonderling met betrekking tot die betrokkenheid van sekere liggaamsdele en hul funksies, en derhalwe ondersteun sangoefeninge spraakproduksie. Aangesien sang egter 'n groter asemkapasiteit en sterker asembeheer verg as spraak, kan sangtegniese oefeninge positief bydra tot die akteur se stemontwikkeling. Verskeie stemfoute en stemprobleme van die akteur kan verbeter word met behulp van tegniese oefeninge, naamlik asemverwante probleme, gebrekkige resonansie-aanpassings en gebrekkige projeksie. 'n Ontleding van die tegnieke van spraak en sang dui op so 'n sterk ooreenkoms dat beide as stemtegnieke geklassifiseer kan word. Daarom sal 'n sangtegniekmatige benadering tot stemopleiding die spraakstem van die akteur positiefbeïnvloed.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the feelings of generational anxiety in the Mormon community from 1869 to 1890 and how those feelings intersected with ideas about reading. During this time, older members of the Mormon community in Utah Territory feared how changes in and threats to Mormon society might negatively affect young people's beliefs, abilities, knowledge, and adherence to their parents' religion. Older Mormons recognized a potential ally and enemy in books, newspapers, and other reading materials, which they believed could dramatically shape young people for good or for ill depending on the quality of the material. This thesis argues these older Mormons borrowed many elements from other US literary cultures and repurposed them for distinctly Mormon ends, including achieving theosis (chapter 1), navigating changing dynamics in Mormon families (chapter 2), and building their utopic society, Zion (chapter 3). This research adds to the work of those scholars who have combined the history of Mormonism with book history. It incorporates the voices of everyday Mormons to bring into focus the entire ecosystem of reading for young Mormons by focusing not only on fiction but also on biography, scripture, "Church works," history, and other genres. It examines not only discourse but also institutionalized programs and actions, such as the 1888 MIA Course of Reading (chapter 4), that shaped Mormons' world of reading. Such an examination begins to sharpen our understanding of the relationship of print and religion in America and what reading meant to Mormons.Master of Arts
The years from 1869 to 1890 constituted a time of change and worry for the Mormon community in Utah Territory. The completion of the transcontinental railroad and the federal government's increasingly vehement attacks on Mormon polygamy, among other factors, led to worries among older Mormons about the future of their community. They particularly worried about the commitment of the upcoming generation of Mormons, who had not converted to the faith but had just been born into it. This thesis examines how those feelings of worry intersected with ideas about reading. Older Mormons recognized a potential ally in reading materials that could help young people become believing, productive members who would help ensure the future of their community. This thesis argues these older Mormons borrowed many elements from other US literary cultures and repurposed them for distinctly Mormon ends, including achieving theosis (chapter 1), navigating changing dynamics in Mormon families (chapter 2), and building their utopic society, Zion (chapter 3). It examines not only the rhetoric surrounding "good" or "bad" reading but also the institutionalized programs and actions, such as the 1888 MIA Course of Reading (chapter 4), that shaped Mormons' world of reading. Such an examination begins to sharpen our understanding of the relationship of print and religion in America and what reading meant to Mormons.

Bachelor's thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2017. http://amslaurea.unibo.it/14186/.
Abstract:
Nella mia tesi ho analizzato la traduzione dei culturemi presenti nel libro "Crímenes que no olvidaré" dell'autrice spagnola Alicia Giménez Bartlett nella versione italiana "Sei casi per Petra Delicado" di Maria Nicola.
Gli elementi specifici di una cultura, i culturemi, non sempre sono sufficientemente conosciuti o non sempre esistono nelle culture diverse da quella di appartenenza e questo, nella pratica della traduzione, rappresenta uno dei maggiori problemi che deve affrontare il traduttore. Prima di svolgere la mia analisi mi sono soffermata su alcuni concetti chiave, basilari e fondamentali per poter lavorare sui riferimenti culturali. Ho approfondito il concetto di cultura ponendo particolare attenzione alla relazione che intercorre tra la cultura e il linguaggio, agli approcci traduttologici e alla nozione di equivalenza. Sono arrivata così a esaminare la definizione di culturema: mi sono documentata su varie definizioni che alcuni autori hanno cercato di dare ai riferimenti culturali e su quella proposta da Lucía Molina che ho preso come punto di riferimento nel mio elaborato. Importante è stato anche studiare le interferenze culturali, quali falsi amici culturali e ingerenze culturali. Mi sono poi concentrata sulle tecniche di traduzione dei culturemi, utili a risolvere il problema di traduzione riscontrato che è scaturito dalla presenza del culturema stesso. Dopo una panoramica delle classificazioni di tali tecniche che sono state fatte nel corso della traduttologia, mi sono soffermata più in dettaglio sulla classificazione proposta da Molina e Hurtado Albir. Avendo acquisito tutti questi concetti ho svolto la mia analsi: ho identificato i culturemi nella versione spagnola, li ho classificati secondo l’ambito culturale di appartenenza, ho trovato la corrispondente traduzione italiana, ho individuato la tecnica di traduzione che è stata applicata e ho preso in esame le scelte traduttive più discutibili commentandole.

Abstract:
The ability to obtain induced pluripotent stem cells starting from adult differentiated cells, discovered in 2006 by Yamanaka, opened new fascinating opportunities for the study of the development of tissues and organs and for the establishment of new therapeutic approaches. To fully take advantage of pluripotent stem cells potentiality for scientific and clinical research, it’s necessary to develop also new technologies that will enable the reproduction in vitro of the in vivo environment.
In the last decade, it was discovered that the mechanical microenvironment has a very marked impact on virtually all cellular processes, ranging fro morphology to gene expression and faith specification. Mechanotransduction, which is the biological process that enable cells to sense and respond to mechanical stimuli, is present in all cells, however it is believed that it may have greater influence in tissues that are subjected to higher mechanical stimuli in vivo, as in the case of the cardiovascular system. As an example, it has been shown that mechanical cues strongly affect the development and maturation of cardiovascular tissues, and that abnormal mechanotransduction can be linked to the onset of several cardiovascular diseases. There is a great interest in the scientific and clinical research communities on the study of the cardiovascular system since cardiovascular diseases are the principal cause of death worldwide and also the associated health care costs to prevent and treat these pathologies are quite elevated. Moreover, cardiovascular toxicity is the primary cause of drug withdrawal, so the development of novel, more accurate models of the cardiovascular system are extremely important also for pharmaceutical research and development.
The aim of this work is to develop innovative technologies to reproduce in vitro the in vivo mechanical microenvironment, specifically that of the cardiovascular system, to gather further knowledge on the biological response to mechanical cues. In particular, these newly developed technologies could be used to reproduce the mechanical stimuli exerted on the cardiovascular system by physical strain, such as agonistic motorcycle driving.
Specifically, in this thesis the focus was on reproducing the characteristic morphology of cardiovascular tissues’ cells and on mimicking mechanical strains typical of the cardiovascular system. Firstly, the polarization typical of cardiac muscle cells has been reproduced on glass, outilining and optimizing strategies to obtain aligned cardiomyocytes. The alignment is imposed creating a linear pattern of cell repulsive stripes, made of polyacrylamide hydrogels, alternated with protein-coated cell adhesive stripes. The establishment of a robust and precise glass patterning technique during this work will allow to study in depth the effect of topology and polarization on cellular gene expression and also will enable the study of cardiomyocytes intercalated discs’ morphology and the transmission of electrical signals among neighboring cells.
Later on, the patterning techniques were transferred to elastomeric materials, such as PDMS, to perform mechanical stimulation of aligned cardiomyocytes cultures, reenacting the organ and tissues environment.
The first stretching device realized was designed to perform biological assays that require an elevated quantity of starting material, such as protein, DNA or RNA extractions. For this reason the culturing area is 9cm2, and mechanical deformation is imposed through the mechanical traction generated by the ElectroForce® planar biaxial TestBench (Bose). In this device, cell alignment is obtained through physical pattering, which means the creation of PDMS channels of different heights along which the cells are seeded.
The second stretching device realized during this work was designed mainly for imaging analysis, such as immunofluorescence, and patch clamp. The culturing area is 1cm2, and mechanical deformation is generated inflating a PDMS membrane in specifically designed rectangular areas that constitute about 40% of the total culturing area. In this case, cell alignment is performed realizing cell repellent polyacrylamide stripes, harnessing the same scientific principle used for glass patterning.
Both culturing device were tested to verify their biocompatibility and ensure that the mechanical stimuli they can impose are sufficient to trigger a biological response.La possibilità di riprogrammare le cellule adulte in cellule pluripotenti indotte, scoperta nel 2006 da Yamanaka, ha aperto nuove allettanti prospettive sia per lo studio dei processi di differenziamento che portano allo sviluppo di organi e tessuti, sia per lo sviluppo di nuovi approcci terapeutici. Per poter sfruttare a pieno le potenzialità nel campo della ricerca scientifica e medica delle cellule staminali indotte, è tuttavia necessario sviluppare tecnologie innovative che permettano di ricreare in vitro le caratteristiche riscontrate in vivo. In particolare nell’ultimo decennio è stato scoperto che il microambiente meccanico esercita una notevole influenza sui processi cellulari, regolando la morfologia, l’espressione genica e il differenziamento delle cellule stesse. Nonostante la meccanotrasduzione, ovvero il processo secondo cui gli stimoli meccanici esterni vengono tradotti dalle cellule in processi biologici, sia presente in tutte le cellule, si ritiene che possa avere particolare rilevanza nei tessuti che in vivo sono sottoposti a maggiori stimoli meccanici. In particolare, si è visto come gli stimoli meccanici esercitino una notevole influenza nello sviluppo e maturazione dei tessuti del sistema cardiovascolare e come stress meccanici anomali possano essere correlati all’insorgenza di patologie cardiovascolari. Il sistema cardiovascolare riveste un particolare interesse nel mondo scientifico e clinico in quanto le malattie cardiovascolari sono la principale causa di morte al mondo, e anche i costi associati alla prevenzione e al trattamento di tali patologie sono particolarmente rilevanti. Per giunta, la cardio-tossicità è la principale causa di rigetto dei nuovi farmaci, rendendo lo studio del sistema cardiocircolatorio estremamente rilevante anche nella fase di sviluppo farmaceutico. Lo scopo di questo lavoro è sviluppare nuove tecnologie atte a riprodurre in vitro il microambiente meccanico presente in vivo, con particolare riferimento al sistema cardiovascolare, per consentire lo studio della risposta cellulare agli stimoli meccanici. Nello specifico, le tecnologie sviluppate potranno essere usate per riprodurre gli stimoli a cui il sistema cardiovascolare è sottoposto durante sforzi intensi, come ad esempio la guida agonistica di motocicli. In particolare è stato posta l’attenzione alla riproduzione della morfologia delle cellule del tessuto cardiaco e delle deformazioni meccaniche tipiche del sistema cardiovascolare. In primo luogo, per riprodurre la polarizzazione tipica delle cellule del muscolo cardiaco, sono state delineate o ottimizzate strategie per ottenere colture allineate di cardiomiociti su vetro. L’allineamento viene ottenuto creando linee di esclusione cellulare costituite da un gel di poliacrilamide, alternate a linee in cui l’adesione cellulare viene favorita mediante trattamento con proteine della matrice extracellulare. Lo sviluppo di un metodo robusto e preciso per la realizzazione di colture di cardiomiociti allineati permetterà lo studio dell’effetto della topologia e polarizzazione sull’espressione genica delle cellule, e inoltre permetterà di analizzare la morfologia delle giunzioni cardiache e la trasmissione degli impulsi elettrici tra cellule adiacenti. Successivamente le tecniche di allineamento sono state trasferite anche ai materiali materiali elastomerici, come il PDMS, per permettere la sollecitazione meccanica di colture allineate, similmente a quanto avviene negli organi. Il primo sistema di stretch meccanico è stato sviluppato per effettuare analisi di estrazione di proteine, RNA o DNA. È costituito da una camera di coltura di 9cm2 e la stimolazione avviene attraverso la trazione meccanica esercitata da ElectroForce® planar biaxial TestBench (Bose), in questo caso l’allineamento cellulare viene imposto tramite la realizzazione sulla superficie di coltura di canali a differente altezza su cui si dispongono le cellule. Il secondo sistema di stretch è stato sviluppato principalmente per effettuare analisi di imaging, come immuofluorescenze, e di patch clamp. La camera di coltura è pari a 1cm2 e la stimolazione meccanica avviene gonfiando una membrana in apposite aree rettangolari di deformazione, che costituiscono circa il 40% della totale area di coltura. In questo caso l’allineamento cellulare viene imposto tramite la realizzazione di righe cellule-repellenti in poliacrilamide, sfruttando lo stesso principio adottato nel caso del vetro. Entrambi i sistemi di coltura sono stati testati per dimostrarne le biocompatibilità e per verificare che gli stimoli meccanici che sviluppati sono tali da innescare una risposta cellulare.

Abstract:
O sorgo é uma planta monocotiledônea diplóide com ciclo de vida de aproximadamente quatro meses. Apresenta grande relevância na agricultura pela sua utilização tanto para a alimentação humana e de animais quanto para a produção de biocombustíveis. Recentemente, o sorgo também surge como um forte candidato como planta modelo em estudos genômicos e fisiológicos relacionados com parede celular de gramíneas C4. Porém, para a análise da função de genes nesta espécie é essencial o estabelecimento da tecnologia de transformação genética que por sua vez depende de um eficiente método de regeneração de plantas. Nesse contexto, este trabalho teve como objetivo estabelecer um protocolo de cultura de tecidos utilizando discos de folhas e embriões imaturos como explantes, de modo a avaliar a redução do nível de oxidação na cultura in vitro pelo uso de antioxidantes e determinar as concentrações de reguladores vegetais para indução de embriogênese somática e regeneração de plantas. Em discos de folhas, os antioxidantes, PVP, ácido ascórbico e ác. cítrico foram testados na manipulação dos explantes até a inoculação em meio de cultura, porém não houve redução no nível de oxidação. Foram testados diferentes concentrações de 2,4-D para indução de calos e o uso de 1 mg L-1 e 2 mg L-1 apresentaram melhores respostas em embriogênese somática. Diferentes meios de cultura foram testados para obtenção de regeneração de plantas, mas a eficiência chegou somente a 1% de plantas a partir de discos de folhas. Em embriões imaturos, além dos antioxidantes PVP e ácido ascórbico, foram testados também os aminoácidos asparagina e prolina em meio de indução de calos. O uso de 2 g L-1 de asparagina e 3 g L-1 de prolina no meio de indução de calos e 3 mg L-1 de TDZ no meio de regeneração de plantas aumentou a eficiência de obtenção de plantas para até 15%. Assim, o uso de embriões imaturos foi considerado o explante mais promissor para a cultura de tecidos de sorgo. Devido aos altos níveis de oxidação e a baixa eficiência de regeneração de plantas em cultura de tecidos, foi testado o método de transformação genética via Agrobacterium tumefaciens conhecido como \"Floral dip\". Esta técnica não necessita da etapa de regeneração de plantas in vitro. Inicialmente, resultados promissores foram obtidos, porém há a necessidade do aprimoramento da metodologia.Sorghum is a diploid monocot plant with a short life cycle of about 4 months. This crop is important in agriculture because it can be used for animal and human feed, and as well as source of raw material for biofuel production. Recently, sorghum also emerges as a strong candidate being a model plant on genomic and physiological studies related to cell wall in C4 grasses. Nevertheless, an efficient plant regeneration method is required for the establishment of genetic transformation technique to conduct the characterization of functional genes. In this context, the objective of this work was to establish a tissue culture protocol to evaluate the oxidation level of in vitro culture using leaf discs and immature embryos as explants, and testing different antioxidants and hormones concentrations for somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration. In leaf discs, PVP, ascorbic acid and citric acid antioxidants were tested when manipulating the explants until their inoculation in culture media, but these factors failed to show any reduction in oxidation. In order to obtain somatic embryogenesis different concentrations of 2,4-D were tested for callus induction, 1,0 and 2,0 mg L-1 showed the best results. Several plant regeneration medium were tested however, only up to 1% of regeneration was achieved using leaf discs. In immature embryos, besides PVP and ascorbic acid antioxidants also asparagine and proline amino acids were tested in the callus induction media. The use of 2 g L-1 asparagine and 3 g L-1 proline in callus induction media and 3 mg L-1 TDZ in the regeneration media improved shoot regeneration efficiency up to 15%. Thus, the use of immature embryos was considered as a better option as explant for tissue culture of sorghum. Due to high production of oxidation and low frequency of plant regeneration in tissue culture, the genetic transformation via Agrobacterium tumefaciens known as \"Floral Dip\" method was tested. This technique does not require in vitro plant regeneration. Preliminary results were obtained, but the methodology needs to be improved.

Abstract:
Seit einigen Jahren kursiert im Internet der Begriff Yolocaust als Bezeichnung für ein vorwiegend jugendbildkulturelles Phänomen, welches das als unangemessen empfundene Erstellen von Fotografien im Stile der jugendlichen Selfiekultur in Holocaust-Gedenkstätten und das anschließende Teilen dieser Bilder in den sozialen Netzwerken meint und welches oft als Symptom einer gestörten Erinnerungskultur gedeutet wird. Dieser Beitrag erschließt anhand der Plattform Instagram zunächst die graduellen Ausprägungen dieser Bildkultur und sucht anschließend über die Analyse der Programmatik und der allgemeinen Bildkultur des Netzwerkes nach Erklärungsansätzen in der medialen Eigenlogik. Abschließend wird nach pädagogischen Konsequenzen für die Vorbereitung des Gedenkstättenbesuchs gefragt, ohne eine pauschale Verurteilung der Bildkultur anzustreben.

The present work, adopting the line of research in violence, crime and public safety, proposes to analyze the phenomenon of cultural assimilation by ga?chos groups of football supporters, of the argentinean matrix football supporters groups of style culture, specifically of the style groups nominated as barras, and assimilated in the common sense as barras bravas, holders of a moral and conduct code based in violence, the aguante, from the style group known as Geral of Gr?mio, football fans linked to the football club Gr?mio Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense. In order to do so, a detailed exposition of the roots, practices, customs, rituals and cultural artifacts of the argentinean barra groups will be carried out, through a bibliographical review of social anthropology research carried out in that country. Based on the ethnographic work carried out with Geral of Gr?mio, which adopted the methodological paradigm of the concepts of liquid and instant ethnography developed by cultural criminology, while referring to a necessary allusion to the geographic peculiarities and socio-cultural appropriations that made this phenomenon possible for the ga?chos groups of football supporters. Especially the process of mythological construction of the gaucho warrior ideology. The Geral of Gr?mio is also different from the other style groups of the global football culture. With regard to analytical criminological content, a hypothesis based on the transcendence of boredom is erected, which the daily routine surrounded by ontological insecurity, relative deprivation, and increasing demands for the satisfaction of individualism, impose on individuals in the globalized society of late modernity, from an individual sensory experience of excitement and self-control, alternative to formal social control, by the mediated "uncontrolled", in the performance of limit-activities conceptualized in cultural criminology as edgework. These conceptualizations would not have been possible without the previous contribution of the aggregate analyzes of social disorganization and lack of formal values already evidenced by ?mile Durkheim and the functionalist school of Chicago, much like William Thomas and Robert Merton, keeping the due differences of time and space. Merton is conjugated to the seduction and excitation factors inherent in the offending act observed by Jack Katz, according with the Jock Young's work, and Thomas makes it possible to explain the interweaving between the customs of the Argentinean barra groups and those that existed in the ga?cho football supporters groups of style culture, linked to the organized groups of brazilian football supporters, resulting in a hybrid group, neither Brazilian, nor Argentine, but the Geral of Gr?mio, who later would influence other groups of style of the ga?cho football supporters groups of style culture, and be a reference for creating alento groups of football supporters in the rest of the country.
O presente trabalho, adotando a linha de pesquisa em viol?ncia, crime e seguran?a p?blica, se prop?e a analisar o fen?mendo de assimila??o cultural pelas torcidas ga?chas, da cultura de arquibancada de matriz platina, especificamente dos grupos de estilo nominados como barras e assimilados no senso comum como barras bravas, detentores de um c?digo moral e de conduta baseado na viol?ncia, o aguante, a partir do grupo de estilo conhecido como Geral do Gr?mio, torcida vinculada ao clube de futebol, Gr?mio de Foot-Ball Porto Alegrense. Para tanto, ser? realizada a exposi??o pormenorizada das ra?zes, bem como das pr?ticas, costumes, rituais e artefatos culturais dos grupos de barra argentinos, atrav?s da revis?o bibliogr?fica de pesquisas de antropologia social realizadas naquele pa?s, para logo ap?s, expor um quadro comparativo, tendo como base o trabalho etnogr?fico efetivado junto a Geral do Gr?mio, que adotou o paradigma metodol?gico das conceitua??es de etnografia l?quida e do instante desenvolvidas pela criminologia cultural, sem deixar de referir a uma necess?ria alus?o ?s peculiaridades geogr?ficas e apropria??es s?cio culturais que tornaram poss?vel este fen?meno para as torcidas ga?chas. Sobretudo o processo de constru??o mitol?gica do ide?rio guerreiro do ga?cho da campanha. Diferencia-se ainda a Geral do Gr?mio dos demais grupos de estilo da cultura de arquibancada global. No que toca ao conte?do anal?tico criminol?gico, se erige uma hip?tese fundamentada na transcend?ncia ao t?dio que a rotina cotidiana cercada de inseguran?a ontol?gica, priva??o relativa, e reclames cada vez maiores de satisfa??o do individualismo, imp?em aos sujeitos na sociedade ocidental globalizada da modernidade tardia, a partir de uma experi?ncia sensorial individual de excita??o e autocontrole alternativo ao controle social formal, pelo ?descontrole? mediado, no perfazimento de atividades-limite conceituadas na criminologia cultural como edgework. Estas conceitua??es n?o teriam sido poss?veis sem a contribui??o pr?via das an?lises agregadas de desorganiza??o social e car?ncia de valores formais j? evidenciadas por ?mile Durkheim e pela escola funcionalista de Chicago, sobremodo William Thomas e Robert Merton, guardadas as devidas diferen?as de tempo e espa?o. Merton ? conjugado aos fatores de perfazimento de sedu??o e excita??o inerentes ao ato transgressor observados por Jack Katz, na esteira do trabalho de Jock Young, e Thomas possibilita explicar o entrela?amento entre os costumes dos grupos de barra argentinos ?queles que existiam na cultura de arquibancada ga?cha, vinculados ?s torcidas organizadas brasileiras, resultando em um grupo de estilo h?brido, nem brasileiro, nem argentino, a Geral do Gr?mio, que posteriormente iria influenciar outros grupos de estilo da cultura de arquibancada ga?cha, e ser refer?ncia de cria??o de torcidas de alento pelo resto do pa?s.

Abstract:
Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: After 1880 more and more Jews (mostly of East European descent) moved into the rural areas of South Africa. Initially they travelled across the country as hawkers but later settled permanently in many of the smaller towns. In most cases they opened shops or started businesses of another kind. Due to the nature of their work the Jews mostly came into contact with the Afrikaans speaking community. Although these two groups differed considerably in many ways, especially as regards language and religion, the Jews adapted and integrated fairly quickly. They became involved with the Afrikaans speaking community in various ways and made a substantial contribution. Although their involvement in and contribution to the economy can be considered as the most important, they also played a considerable role in other areas such as politics, education, language, sport and recreation. The presence of the Jews in rural South Africa was important not only because of their integration with the Afrikaans speaking community and the contribution they made as a group, but also because of the extent to which the two groups influenced each other. Both groups were culturally enriched and the South African country town developed a unique character due to the presence or the Jews and their involvement in the life and activities of the townspeople. Although the Jews were influenced by the Afrikaans speaking community and thus acquired new cultural assets, they still to a large extent retained their Jewish identity. On the whole there was a very good relationship between the Afrikaans speaking rural population and the Jews. After 1950 an increasingly large number of Jews moved to the cities. The depopulation of the rural areas, as regards to Jews, took place to such an extent that today only a few Jewish families remain in rural areas.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Na 1880 is Jode (hoofsaaklik van Oos-Europese afkoms) toenemend op die Suid- Afrikaanse platteland aangetref. Aanvanklik het hulle as smouse die landelike gebiede deurkruis. Later het hulle hulle egter permanent op die plattelandse dorpe gevestig - in die meeste gevalle het hulle 'n winkel of ander soort besigheid begin. Die Jode het uit die aard van hulle werk oorwegend met die Afrikaanssprekende gemeenskap in aanraking gekom. Alhoewel daar definitiewe verskille tussen dié twee groepe was, veral ten opsigte van godsdiens en taal, het die Jode redelik gou aangepas en ingeskakel. Hulle het op verskillende terreine by die Afrikaanssprekende gemeenskap betrokke geraak en 'n substansiële bydrae gelewer. Hoewel hulle betrokkenheid en bydrae tot die ekonomiese terrein as die belangrikste beskou kan word, het hulle ook op baie ander gebiede soos byvoorbeeld politiek, opvoeding, taal, sport en ontspanning belangrike bydraes gelewer. Die Jode se teenwoordigheid op die Suid-Afrikaanse platteland was nie slegs belangrik as gevolg van hulle inskakeling by die Afrikaanssprekende gemeenskap of die bydrae wat hulle as groep gelewer het nie, maar ook as gevolg van die mate waarin albei groepe mekaar beïnvloed het. Die Jode se aanwesigheid en hulle betrokkenheid by die dorp se bedrywighede en mense het meegebring dat albei groepe kultureel verryk is en dat die Suid-Afrikaanse platteland 'n unieke karakter verkry het. Hoewel die Jode deur die Afrikaanssprekende gemeenskap beïnvloed is en hulle as groep nuwe kultuurgoedere bygekry het, het hulle steeds in 'n groot mate hulle Joodse identiteit behou. Daar was oor die algemeen 'n baie goeie verhouding tussen die Afrikaanssprekende plattelanders en die Jode. Na ongeveer 1950 het daar geleidelik 'n toenemende getal Jode na die stede verhuis. Die ontvolking van die platteland met betrekking tot die Jode het in so 'n mate plaasgevind dat daar vandag slegs enkele Joodse gesinne op die meeste plattelandse dorpe oor is.

Abstract:
This study is an examination of three small-scale artist run music businesses based in Brisbane. The researcher embedded himself within these three environments over the space of three years, using participant observation and content analysis to establish the key motivations, theories, and ideas which drove these businesses. As a researcher participant the author also drew on his own experiences to interrogate those investigated by other researchers in the field, with the underlying key theories influenced by Pierre Bourdieu's writings on Small-Scale production. This study provides a fascinating insight into Brisbane music culture, in particular the independent music scenes.

Abstract:
Après avoir analysé l'influence de la culture éducative turque sur l'enseignement du français en Turquie (2012, J.-C. Beacco), nous en avons conclu que les pratiques éducatives y sont fondées davantage sur la grammaire, ce qui peut s’expliquer par le rattachement à la culture éducative turque. Nous poursuivons nos recherches sur les contextualisations de la description du français dans des grammaires pédagogiques qui sont élaborées par et pour des turcophones (Grammaire et contextualisations- GRAC). Ces grammaires présentant des « contextualisations », s’écartent de celles dites de référence du français pour s’adapter aux cultures éducatives et métalinguistiques des apprenants turcophones. Il est intéressant d’étudier le discours grammatical à partir de plusieurs entrées : les articles avec les changements terminologiques dont ils sont l’objet, le genre avec la création d’une catégorie inexistante en turc et les cas grammaticaux avec la production de règles d’équivalence. Une démarche complémentaire par une cyber-enquête est engagée pour identifier les contextualisations des erreurs de français les plus fréquentes en milieu scolaire et universitaire turcophone. Les données obtenues ont permis de montrer que les discours sont modelés par les cultures éducatives et métalinguistiques. Il serait opportun de faire contribuer ces grammaires « extérieures » du français à une grammaire plus « centrale » du françaisAfter having studied the impact of educational culture on French teaching (2012, J.-C. Beacco), we concluded that teaching methods applied in Turkey are mostly based on grammar. This tendency reflects the educational culture of this country. The present research focuses on the contextualization of French grammar in reference books which were written by and for Turkish-speaking people (Project of GRAC).French reference books written in Turkey contain a number of “contextualization”, resulting from educational and metalinguistic culture of Turkish students learning French. Therefore, they differed from the French edition of French grammar. For this purpose, the French grammatical discourse was analyzed in many aspects: the articles which cause the change of terms; the gender of nouns which does not exist in Turkish introduces a new grammatical classification and the grammatical cases which result in the creation of equivalent rules. A cyber-survey was prepared to find out the contextualization of the frequent errors in French in high school and university area in Turkey. All the research, showed that these discourses were modulated by the educational and metalinguistic culture. Moreover, we demonstrated that the “off-center” Turkish edition of French grammar books need to be standardized to the “central norm” of the French edition
Türk eğitim anlayışının Fransızca öğretimine etkisi incelenmiş olup (2012, J.-C. Beacco), Türkiye’de daha çok dil bilgisine dayalı bir öğretim şekli uygulandığı ve bunun da geleneksel eğitim anlayışına bağlı kalmanın bir sonucu olduğu belirlenmiştir. Fransızca dil bilgisinin Türkiye bağlamına uyarlanmış ve Türk yazarlar tarafından Türk okuyucular için kaleme alınan kaynak kitaplar üzerine çalışılmıştır (GRAC Projesi).Türkiye’de yayımlanan Fransızca kaynak kitapları bu “bağlama göre uyarlanmakta”, dolayısıyla bir Fransız yayını Fransızca dil bilgisinden uzaklaşmaktadır: bu kitaplar, Türk öğrencilerin eğitim anlayışları gereği ve dil ötesi nedenlerle farklı algıladıkları “o yabancı dile” uygun olabilmesi için uyarlanmıştır. Bu varsayımdan yola çıkarak, Fransızca dilbilgisel söylem birçok açıdan ele alınmıştır: terim değişikliğine neden olan « article », Türkçede karşılığı olmadığı için yeni bir sınıflandırmaya yol açan isimlerde cinsiyet ve iki dil arası kural denkliğine neden olan ismin halleri. İnternet ortamında yayımlanan bir anket ile Türkiye’de lise ve üniversite düzeyinde sıklıkla yapılan Fransızca yanlışların bu bağlama uyarlanması araştırılmıştır. Tüm bu veriler, bu söylemlerin Türklerin eğitim anlayışı ve dil ötesi algıları ile şekillendiğini göstermiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlar doğrultusunda ise, “merkez dışı” bu kaynak kitapların daha “merkezi” bir Fransız yayın ölçütüne kazandırılması gerekmektedir

Previous issue date: 2006Esta dissertação dá início a um mapeamento do jornalismo gastronômico, inserido no contexto do jornalismo cultural brasileiro contemporâneo. Optamos por centrar a análise nos gêneros crítica e crônica, por serem bastante freqüentes no jornalismo cultural. A metodologia deste trabalho se focou, por um lado, na revisão bibliográfica sobre os aspectos socioculturais da gastronomia e, por outro, numa retomada das discussões acerca dos gêneros jornalísticos. Compõe nosso corpus de pesquisa todo o material publicado durante o ano de 2004 nas seções Gula Indica Restaurantes (Revista Gula), Mundo Gourmet (Folha de S.Paulo), Pé na Cozinha (Claudia Cozinha) e Refogado (Carta Capital), num total de 145 textos. Também realizamos entrevistas com críticos, cronistas e editores dos veículos. Da leitura desse material, destacamos a presença de seis categorias lingüístico-discursivas que passaram a direcionar nosso olhar analítico sobre o corpus textual, a saber: estrutura narrativa, titulação, interatividade, intertextualidade, ironia e metáfora. Observamos que as crônicas apresentaram duas características comuns aos veículos Claudia Cozinha e Carta Capital: a interatividade e a narrativa. Verificamos que a crônica se caracteriza como um espaço da subjetividade, em que o narrador interage com o leitor e com ele busca dialogar. Já as críticas não apresentaram estratégias comuns à Folha de S.Paulo e à Gula, exceto na titulação, predominantemente descritiva. Trata-se do chamado jornalismo de serviço, em que o crítico busca oferecer informações para que o leitor delas possa usufruir

This work aims to understand the different representations of the “Cavalo Marinho”, through academic publications, folk literature and the narratives of social actors themselves. The Cavalo Marinho, object of this dissertation, is an artistic manifestation based on oral tradition which contains music, dance, poetry and the staging of figures. From these multiple languages we believe we can extract multiple, although conflicting, meanings: whether about the Agreste and the Zona da Mata’s regions - places where the “Cavalo Marinho de Bombo” happen as a form of expression; whether about the inhabitants of these places. According to a theoretical approach centered on Social and Cultural History, and based in authors such as E. P. Thompson and Roger Chartier, we understand culture as an arena of conflict in which there is always an interchange between the dominant and the subordinate, between the written and the oral. On the other hand, we realize that the study of popular culture enables us to understand how different historical realities are constructed, designed and represented by their social actors in different times and places. From bibliographical (books, theses, dissertations and monographs), iconographic and audio-visual surveys on the “Cavalo Marinho”, we went to meet the social actors in Northern Agreste and in the municipalities of North Zona da Mata, with an emphasis in Feira Nova, Lagoa do Goitá and Itaenga for conducting and recording interviews with members of the “Cavalo Marinho Boi Ventania” and other actors of the “Cavalo Marinho de Bombo” from this region. This study enabled us to not only to grasp the tunes, the “loas”, the steps of memories and narratives of these historical subjects, but also the history and culture of the region studied. The encounter between theory and practice results understanding of the Cavalo Marinho as Form of Expression, unlike other studies that present our object as a folk dancing, a vehicle information, or a play, among other insights.
Este trabalho busca entender as diferentes representações do Cavalo Marinho, através de publicações acadêmicas, bibliografia folclórica e das narrativas dos próprios atores sociais. O Cavalo Marinho, objeto desta dissertação, é uma manifestação artística de tradição oral que contém música, dança, poesia e encenação de figuras. A partir destas múltiplas linguagens, acreditamos ser possível extrair significados diversos e colidentes sobre a história da região e das pessoas que habitam as cidades do Agreste Setentrional e Zona da Mata Norte, região onde se realiza a forma de expressão Cavalo Marinho de Bombo. Com aporte teórico centrado na História Social e Cultural, a partir de autores como E. P. Thompson e Roger Chartier, entendemos a cultura como uma arena de conflitos em que há sempre uma troca entre o dominante e o subordinado, entre o escrito e o oral. Por outro lado, percebemos que o estudo sobre a Cultura Popular nos possibilita compreender como diferentes realidades históricas são construídas, pensadas e representadas por seus atores sociais em diferentes tempos e lugares. Para isso, realizamos um levantamento bibliográfico (livros, teses, dissertações e monografias), iconográfico e audiovisual sobre o Cavalo Marinho e fomos ao encontro dos atores sociais em diferentes municípios das regiões mencionadas, com ênfase nos municípios de Feira Nova, Glória do Goitá e Lagoa do Itaenga. Os encontros foram realizados a através de entrevistas filmadas, participação em brincadeiras e festas de Cavalo Marinho com os integrantes do Boi Ventania e demais atores do Cavalo Marinho de Bombo desta região. Por fim, apresentamos uma versão textual com ilustrações do repertório de Cavalo Marinho de Bombo. Por fim, compreendo que este estudo nos possibilitou não somente articular diferentes teóricos para construção textual, mas a compreensão dos elementos artísticos da brincadeira, como toadas, loas e passos, como também a História e a cultura da região estudada a partir das narrativas de memória dos atores sociais.

Abstract:
Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 1991.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A song has to be accepted by the community, must form part of the oral tradition and be handed over from one generation to the next, before it can be called a folk song. In the process of oral tradition, variants usually develop. A folk song is therefore never complete the moment it is created, but is formed gradually through a process of changes. The Afrikaans folk song sung by the coloured people has the same characteristics as the folk song in general. The fact that oral tradition is the major way of spreading songs, is evident from the many variants that occur and from the examples of transformation of words and melody ("Umsingen"and "Zersingen"). Simplicity, the use of the major key and the avoidance of modulation are prominent characteristics. Suggestiveness and coarse language are fairly common. Melismata are very rare and usually occur in songs which probably have their origin in old Afrikaans records. Most of the songs collected amongst coloured children are used to accompany games. The children seldom sing without playing or play without singing. Most variants are found amongst children's songs. Dancing songs are without a doubt the most popular amongst the songs of adults. The form of the stanzas is very simple and usually the songs consist of many stanzas. A small percentage of the songs collected, more or less 5%, presumably originate from old Afrikaans grammophone records. Most of these songs have been transformed by popular usage and even amongst them variants have been found. The main themes of this group of songs are love, parting, grief and death. Picnic songs, work songs, war songs and drinking songs have been found. Humoristic and mocking songs contribute to the entertainment value of the folk song and are also found amongst the coloured people. Because there is so much interaction between sacred songs and secular songs, especially where the melodies are concerned, the two groups cannot always be separated from each other. The sacred songs of the coloured people are mostly of the "refrain"-type. When a group of coloured people perform the sacred songs, they usually harmonise spontaneously and most beautifully. The fact that so much has been said and written on the subject of the folk song, and that even in recent years substantial research projects have been carried out, is proof enough that the folk song has not yet died out. The Afrikaans folk song features strongly amongst coloured people, though noticeably influenced by the English language, modern technology and urbanisation.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: 'n Volkslied is 'n lied wat deur die gemeenskap aanvaar is, mondelings versprei word en op dieselfde wyse van geslag tot geslag oorgelewer word en waarvan daar in die prosesse variante ontstaan. 'n Volkslied is dus nie voltooi die oomblik dat die eerste vorm geskep is nie, maar word deur 'n langsame proses geleidelik gevorm en omvorm. Die Afrikaanse volkslied wat deur die bruinmense gesing word, toon dieselfde kenmerke as die volkslied in die algemeen. Daar is tekens van mondelinge oorlewering wat veral weerspieel word deur die baie variante wat aangetref word, sowel as talle voorbeelde van verbrokkeling en ver~ vorming ("Umsingen" en "Zerzingen"). Eenvoud in woord en melodie is opvallend. Die majeurtoonaard, met vermyding van modulasie, kom feitlik deurgaans voor. Suggestiwiteit en growwe taal is redelik algemeen. Melismes kom selde voor en dan meestal by liedere wat waarskynlik van ou Afrikaanse plate kom. By die opnames onder bruin kinders is gevind dat die oorgrote meerderheid liedere wat hulle sing, een of ander vorm van spel begelei. Hulle sing selde sonder om te speel, en hulle speel selde sonder om te sing. Die meeste variante van liedere word ook by die kinders aangetref. By die liedere van volwassenes is die danslied ongetwyfeld die gewildste. Die meeste daarvan bestaan uit kort, eenvoudige strofes met baie strofes in een lied. 'n Klein persentasie van die liedere wat versamel is, ongeveer 5%, is vermoedelik van ou Afrikaanse grammofoonplate afkomstig. Die meeste daarvan het baie vervorm in die volksmond en selfs daarvan is variante aangetref. Die temas van hierdie groep liedere handel hoofsaaklik oor die liefde, afskeid, hartseer en die dood. Voorbeelde van piekniek-, arbeids- en oorlogsliedere, sowel as enkele drinkliedere en doprympies is aangetref. Die humoristiese lied en spotlied dra by tot die vermaaklikhiedsfunksie van die volkslied en kom ook by die bruinmense voor. Die gewyde of geestelike lied kan nie altyd streng van die wereldlike lied geskei word nie. Daar is te veel wisselwerking tussen die twee groepe, veral wat wysies betref. Die gewyde liedere wat by die bruinmense,aangetref is, is meestal van die sogenaamde "koortjie"-tipe. 'n Kenmerk van hulle gewyde sang is dat wanneer dit deur 'n groep gesing word, dit altyd meerstemmig is met pragtige harmoniee wat op natuurlike wyse gedoen word. Die feit dat daar al so baie oor die volkslied geskryf is en selfs onlangs nog omvatteride studies daaroor die lig gesien het, is bewys dat die volklied nog nie uitgesterf het nie. Daar is bewys dat die Afrikaanse volkslied onder die bruinmense baie sterk staan, hoewel Engelse invloed duidelik merkbaar is en tekens van moderne ontwikkeling en verstedeliking onmiskenbaar waargeneem kanword.

Abstract:
To many people, music is just a hobby, something they listen to on the drive to work or background noise throughout their day. Maybe they will go to an occasional concert or buy a record here or there, or more likely download one off iTunes. To some though, it can mean so much more. To some people, music can be the whole basis of their social lives. Here I will show how the music scene in DeKalb, Illinois has created strong bonds, enough to be termed a community. Helped through punk ethics and a DIY (do-it yourself) mindset, the DeKalb punk scene has brought together musicians, poets, artists, fans, and others involved through zines and record labels into one community. Through the words of those directly involved in the scene, I show how they view DeKalb’s punk scene as a community. The scene has become a welcoming space, where everyone’s projects are supported, leading to a variety of experimentation. One of the interesting elements of DeKalb’s scene in relation to other punk scenes is the older age of the participants. Traditionally seen as music for teenagers, as DeKalb is a college town the main participants are in their 20s, though older members are not rare; indeed, some are even in their 40s with families and kids. An important part of creating this scene is DIY philosophy, and I examine the role that has in creating a community. Additionally, spaces for music are equally important, as I illustrate how these spaces are essential in the music scene. Finally, as DeKalb is college town with a rotating population, I investigate what the future holds for everyone involved and the town’s punk scene.

This experience is related to the community activity and comes in the form of best practices, behavior, implicit (tacit) knowledge, ways of using artifacts, etc. All these accumulates and evolves over time and slowly becomes a part of the culture of the community. If community activity is very specific, it can be reflected also in the specificity of the community culture. Newcomers
in such community might suffer from what is called “culture shock†, i.e. a feeling of confusion when not able to grasp what is common for old-timers. This occurs because part of the community culture is not explicit, i.e. not readily available, and it is very hard to extract valuable information from it. Such information can be used for increasing economic and social benefits of the community members (e.g., for performing recurring tasks, easier integration of newcomers, better quality of life). Moreover, the awareness of the community culture could help the community to handle the turnover of members and structural changes, while preserving the culture. All these introduce the need for transfer of culture between or within communities.
Currently, there is no domain-independent approach for discovering, representing, transferring, and preserving community culture. Moreover, taking into account the amount of information accumulated by communities, computer aided tools for such representation and transfer are of utmost importance. A key property of such tools should be their non-intrusiveness, i.e. they must be as much integrated in the community practices as possible.
Research challenges in solving these problems include, but are not limited to: 1) providing a generic approach for dealing with community culture; 2) designing a framework and
computer aided supporting tools for transferring culture; 3) implementing the framework, applying and evaluating it in different domains.
This thesis addresses the problem of culture transfer. First, we formalize the notion of culture, which includes behavior, knowledge, artifacts, best practices, etc., and provide a classification of problems that involve culture. Second, using this formalism, we propose the Implicit Culture Framework, which is an agent-based framework for transferring behavior among community members or among communities. Then we describe three applications developed using the IC-Service in the domain of recommendation systems: a system for web search, a system for software pattern selection, and a system for web service discovery. Finally, we present the results of the evaluation of the applications with real users and with ad-hoc user models.

Favaloro, Frine Beba. "La didactique de la culture chinoise dans le cadre de construction disciplinaire de l’enseignement de Lingua e cultura cinese." Thesis, Paris, INALCO, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020INAL0003.
Abstract:
Notre thèse s’inscrit dans le domaine de la didactique des langues étrangères et a pour objet la construction de la discipline scolaire de Lingua e cultura cinese et le développement de la didactique de la culture chinoise dans l’enseignement secondaire du deuxième cycle italien. S’appuyant sur les notions de construction disciplinaire et de transposition didactique, elle se développe avec l’observation du parcours analogue de disciplinarisation de l’enseignement de la langue et de la culture chinoises en France. L’objectif de l’enquête est d’exposer la constitution particulière de la discipline scolaire italienne par rapport aux autres langues et au contexte français, en montrant l’écart entre le processus de transposition didactique des objets à enseigner-enseignables relatifs à la langue, largement développés, et ceux concernant la culture, pour lesquels les objets à enseigner ont été identifiés mais où la réflexion sur la méthode pour les rendre enseignables est encore à un stade initial. La représentation de distance culturelle associée à la culture chinoise renforce ce processus, rendant plus complexe l’intégration des composantes de la didactique. Cette intégration concerne notamment les thèmes culturels, proposés de manière compartimentée, et la didactique de la langue et de la culture, encore insuffisamment mises en communication. Enfin, tout cela montre que l’intégration des champs de référence et de réflexion de la discipline dans son ensemble est encore en cours d’élaborationOur thesis places itself in the domain of foreign language teaching. Its object is the construction of the scholastic discipline of Lingua e cultura cinese and the development of the teaching of Chinese culture in Italian upper secondary school. Based on the concepts of discipline construction and didactic transposition, the thesis develops from the observation of disciplinarisation process of Chinese language and culture teaching completed in France. The goal of the research is twofold. First, we want to show how the Italian discipline took unique shape compared to other languages and to the French context, and secondly, to show how there is a divide between the process of didactic transposition of objects to teach-teachable related to Chinese language and the corresponding one related to Chinese culture. While the former is widely developed, the objects to be taught have been identified for the latter but a reflection on how to make them teachable is still at an early stage. This process is influenced by the representation of cultural distance associated with Chinese culture, which makes the integration of the teaching components more complex. Specifically, this integration concerns cultural themes, proposed in a compartmentalized way, and the teaching of language and culture, which are not yet sufficiently connected. Finally, this shows how the integration of reference components and conceptual issues of the discipline as a whole are yet being defined
La nostra tesi si iscrive nel dominio della didattica delle lingue straniere e ha per oggetto la costruzione della disciplina scolastica di Lingua e cultura cinese e lo sviluppo della didattica della cultura nella scuola secondaria di secondo grado italiana. Basandosi sulle nozioni di costruzione disciplinare e trasposizione didattica, essa si sviluppa a partire dall’osservazione del percorso di disciplinarizzazione dell’insegnamento della lingua e della cultura cinese compiuto in Francia. Obiettivo dell’indagine è mostrare come la disciplina scolastica italiana si sia costituita secondo una forma peculiare rispetto alle altre lingue e al contesto francese, e mostrare come esista un divario tra il processo di trasposizione didattica degli oggetti da insegnare-insegnabili relativi alla lingua, ampiamente sviluppati, e quelli relativi alla cultura, rispetto a cui sono stati individuati gli oggetti da insegnare ma la riflessione su come renderli insegnabili è ancora agli inizi. Influisce su questo processo la rappresentazione di distanza culturale associata alla cultura cinese, che rende più complesso integrare le componenti della didattica. Nello specifico, tale integrazione riguarda i temi culturali, che sono proposti in modo compartimentalizzato, e la didattica della lingua e della cultura, che non sono sufficientemente poste in comunicazione. Tutto questo, infine, mostra come l’integrazione dei campi di riferimento e di riflessione della disciplina nel suo complesso sia ancora in corso di definizione

Abstract:
Die Dissertation untersucht von Autorinnen (Louisa Johnson, Jane Loudon, Maria Theresa Earle, Gertrude Jekyll, Elizabeth von Arnim) verfasste Ratgeberliteratur zum Hausgarten für ein weibliches Lesepublikum, mit dem Anspruch an eine praktische Gartentätigkeit, im Zeitraum von 1839 bis 1900. Die Genderperspektive steht hieraus folgend im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Arbeit. Der Fokus auf die bürgerliche Mittelklasse ergibt sich aus der Autorinnenperspektive und der angesprochenen Leserschaft. Die Behandlung des Gartens wird einer Analyse unterzogen, die nach der weiblichen Sicht auf den Garten und einem spezifisch weiblichen Selbstverständnis der garteninteressierten bzw. gärtnernden Frauen fragt.
In ihrer Beschäftigung mit dem Garten leisten die Frauen einen Beitrag zur Konzeption von männlich und weiblich, zur Bewertung von Geschlechternormen und deren Verhandlung. Das Schreiben und Lesen über den Garten sowie hieraus resultierende Handlungen waren mit der Konstruktion weiblicher Identität verknüpft. In ihrer befreienden Konzeption des Gartens heben sich diese Frauenstimmen zu Weiblichkeitsvorstellungen von anderen gesellschaftlichen zugeschriebenen Wirkungsbereichen ab. An die bürgerliche Frau herangetragene Rollenerwartungen werden in den Werken weder affirmativ bestätigt noch offen subversiv hinterfragt. Es handelt sich vielmehr um ein subtiles Unterlaufen durch das Anbieten von Handlungsfeldern, die dem Wunsch nach Selbstverwirklichung und Selbstbestimmung entgegen kamen. Im Garten als vermeintlich kleinem, hausnah-restriktivem Kontext nehmen die Frauen neue Rollen an und variieren diese. Der Beschäftigung mit dem Garten kommt daher ein protofeministischer Charakter vor dem Einsetzen der Ersten Frauenbewegung zu, so dass von einem Gartenfeminismus als Instrument zur weiblichen Bewusstwerdung gesprochen werden kann.The thesis takes a close look at gardening literature by several women writer’s (Louisa Johnson, Jane Loudon, Maria Theresa Earle, Gertrude Jekyll, Elizabeth von Arnim) in the Victorian period, focusing on practical gardening activities. Central to its theme is its gender perspective within the garden context, predominantly in the middle classes. The garden is analysed in various contexts focusing on a specific female view on gardening as seen in the texts and a growing female self-awareness that results from their involvement with the garden. In making the garden their subject, these writers actively construct notions of male and female. Writing and reading about the garden and the resulting practices are linked to the construction of a female identity and ultimately open up gender roles. The liberating construction of the garden within the texts differs from the conception of other socially accepted areas of female involvement in the period of examination. Received gender roles are neither overtly affirmed nor subversively challenged in the texts. Their approach is more of a subtle reconstruction by offering a new and wider range of activities that acknowledge a female desire for self-determination and fulfilment. In the garden as an allegedly small and restrictive site close to the home, women are able to diversify given stereotypes and take on new roles. Gardening as a leisure or professional occupation therefore holds proto-feminist implications even before the beginning of the First Women’s Movement, so that we can speak of a garden feminism instrumental to a negotiation of female gender roles.

Abstract:
This thesis analyses the implications for football cultures of the profound socio-economic changes that Brazil has experienced in the last decade. It explores two major impacts: the economic boom of the domestic football sector, and the large-scale adoption of new technologies in fans' activities. The study identified a new phase of football culture in Brazil, characterised by the domination of market logics and intense commercialisation. The empirical findings also showed that new technologies are changing how supporters coordinate activities that challenge the gentrification of the game.

Ao longo de todo o s?culo passado os meios de comunica??o avan?aram nas diferentes esferas sociais, florescendo fen?menos diversos. A inser??o das manifesta??es culturais populares no campo midi?tico traz ? tona antagonismos entre tradi??o e modernidade e a constru??o de nossas representa??es identit?rias. Neste estudo problematiza-se a rela??o da visibilidade midi?tica com nossa identidade cultural e regional. Objetiva-se, de modo geral, analisar as representa??es da cultura popular nordestina ao ser colocado como produto midi?tico, econ?mico e tur?stico. Especificamente, demonstramos as pr?ticas sociais e comunicativas que se manifestam nas quadrilhas juninas ao serem introduzidas no cen?rio televisivo. Com a utiliza??o do m?todo etnogr?fico buscamos evidenciar que tais processos s?o mecanismos para a constru??o da identidade cultural da regi?o Nordeste. Nesse sentido questionamos a apropria??o das manifesta??es populares pela m?dia, analisando como os grupos juninos se mant?m dentro de um cen?rio cada vez mais restrito ao consumo e ao espet?culo. Embasados em autores como Marques de Melo, Benjamin, Lima, Chianca e Albuquerque Junior abordamos o cen?rio das festas populares do Nordeste e suas constantes reconfigura??es nos espa?os urbanos e de m?dia.
Throughout the last century the media have advanced in different social spheres, flourishing diverse phenomena. The insertion of popular cultural manifestations in the media field brings to the fore antagonisms between tradition and modernity and the construction of our identity representations. In this study the relationship of media visibility with our cultural and regional identity is problematized. In general, the objective is to analyze the representations of the popular culture of the Northeast when it is placed as a media, economic and tourist product. Specifically, we demonstrate the social and communicative practices that are manifested in the Juninas gangs when they are introduced to the television scene. With the use of the ethnographic method we seek to show that these processes are mechanisms for the construction of the cultural identity of the Northeast region. In this sense, we question the appropriation of the popular manifestations by the media, analyzing how the Junino groups remain within a scenario increasingly restricted to consumption and spectacle. Based on authors such as Marques de Melo, Benjamin, Lima, Chianca and Albuquerque Junior, we approach the scene of popular festivals in the Northeast and their constant reconfigurations in urban and media spaces.

Barnes, Duncan Martin. "Selling the modern day tribe: The commodification of rave culture." Thesis, Edith Cowan University, Research Online, Perth, Western Australia, 2018. https://ro.ecu.edu.au/theses/2107.
Abstract:
This thesis examines youth and rave culture from the late 1980s to the present. It considers the history as well as the global and local impact of rave. I provide a visual ethnographic study from 1999-2014, based on my work as a commercial photographer of the Perth, Western Australian scene. While critically reflecting on existing subcultural research this thesis adds another dimension – the effect that global corporations have had in reshaping subcultural practices, specifically the commodification of rave culture in the form of the contemporary electronic dance festival.
The research incorporates both qualitative and quantitative data to interrogate media coverage on rave culture as well as interviews and first hand experience within the rave scene. I analyse mainstream print and electronic media reporting of rave as a deviant youth subcultural practice linked to the use of the drug ecstasy. I consider the effect this had on rave and it’s rebranding to become known in contemporary times as EDM (electronic dance music). As a result I examine how rave has shifted from a youth subcultural activity to being not only mainstream and commercial, but also owned and controlled by global corporations. My discussion of the conventions of festival/music scenes will demonstrate how rave, which once operated outside ‘acceptable’ boundaries, has become a part of the conventional norm.
A unique aspect of this thesis is the inclusion and analysis of my photographs taken over a 15 year period that document the changes that occurred as rave transitioned from a subversive underground scene to corporate run multimillion dollar events. The photographs are also compiled into an accompanying monograph. The monograph allows for an immersive visual experience of non-staged event images and predetermined studio and location photographs. The book offers what words alone cannot fully engage with – a representation of what was and remains a highly visual scene, based on fashion, performance and settings.
