Abstract:
Topicality of the issue is determined with medicalization being an important part of social, political technologies. This article is aimed to demonstrate a political background of medicalization, and respectively a potency of the philosophical-phenomenological approach as a strategy of resistance. The methods of logical analysis, etymological analysis, as well as hermeneutics are applied. This study provides with a new understanding of the nature of medicalization, thus allows to ground a conclusion that the opposition “health – disease” is distorted within the framework of the medical-political discourse, as well as to explain why an incorrect definition of health is still in use in the WHO documents.

Abstract:
Providers of health and social care in England are under a statutory duty to be open and honest with patients who suffer harm when receiving care or treatment. This ‘duty of candour’ was introduced by regulation 20 of the Health and Social Care Act 2008 (Regulated Activities) Regulations 2014 and is one of 13 fundamental standards of care regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC). This was hailed as a landmark for openness in patient–professional relationships and as having the potential for enhancing a safety culture in healthcare. However, the decision to supplement existing ethical duties and policy initiatives encouraging openness with a statutory duty was contentious and encountered considerable medical resistance. This paper will trace the background to the legal duty, analyse its contents and consider its enforcement and potential obstacles to its effectiveness. Our analysis will foreground resistance based in practitioners’ and healthcare institutions’ fear of litigation and prosecution in the UK. However, opposition to candour emerged within the medical profession prior to the emergence of modern liability systems. This paper will argue that in order to create a culture of candour it is important to look beyond the more commonly identified professional concerns about litigation and understand these historical trends. In particular, we argue that a longer-term understanding of medical resistance to openness has important lessons for the likely effectiveness of the legal duty of candour.

Abstract:
Purpose – Corporate culture is a product of managerial mindset and it consists of obscured, undisclosed and unconditionally accepted assumptions that underlie corporate behaviour. This study seeks to investigate the extent of corporate mindset since it is a causal factor in crises. Design/methodology/approach – Data were obtained by questionnaire from decision-making executives in hospitals, medical centres, aged care, pharmacies, dental clinics and practices in physiotherapy, chiropractic and podiatry. Findings – Organizations were judged to be in a state of medium disavowal concerning their belief that the impact of any crisis would be small. Around two thirds of participants indicated that the general mind-set of organizations contributes to effective crisis management, and that a welcoming attitude would prevail in the event of the implementation of a organization-wide, systems-wide, crisis management program. With regard to denial mechanisms or beliefs that hinder effective crisis management, two-thirds indicated inactive/passive resistance and one-third indicated active/aggressive resistance. The reasons for resistance were apathy, anti-change, and concern about cost. Originality/value – Cultural opposition to crisis preparedness varies significantly between organizations and poses a major barrier to effective crisis management. This study empowers health leaders by identifying several mindset changes that are required to create crisis-resilient health organisations.

Abstract:
AbstractThis paper argues that the concept of moral economy, formulated by E.P. Thompson and developed in Asian contexts by James Scott and Paul Greenough can be usefully employed to analyse the peasant narratives of Premchand, one of the greatest writers in Hindi-Urdu literatures. But such an application is possible only if the concept is expanded further. In Premchand's works related to peasantry we find several ideological currents. However, the idea of peasantry's own cultural resources in opposition to other social groups appears to be predominant in his later works. There is a sense of centrality of peasant culture which Premchand and some others among the Hindi literary intelligentsia came to acquire, and deployed for various purposes—against colonial regime, against the products of colonial modernity (e.g., factories, English schools, courts, medical profession), against the new urban middle classes and their culture, against urbanism as a whole and, sometimes, even against the Congress, the representative of organized nationalism. Distinct from both the everyday forms of resistance and open rebellion, Premchand visualizes a comprehensive peasant paradigm in opposition to colonialism, and urban middle-class perspectives.

Abstract:
Sarcopenia is a significant medical issue related with aging, characterized as loss of bulk and capacity. It is a condition portrayed by loss of skeletal bulk and quality, with a danger of antagonistic results, for example, handicap, improvement of delicacy, low quality of life and death. Its etiology is still inadequately comprehended. Opposition preparing intercession is sheltered and compelling for checking sarcopenia. Resistance exercise (RE) programs improve muscle anabolism, bulk and muscle quality. The present study aims to assess the impact of resistance exercise on hand grip among the elderly population with sarcopenia. A quasi experimental research design with non-randomized control research design was conducted among 30 elderly population in Arrakonam among which 15 were chosen for the experimental group and 15 were chosen as the control group. A purposive sampling technique was used to select samples. Structured questionnaires were used to collect demographic data and BMI and hand grip was assessed. The resistance exercises were taught to the elderly population and they were asked to perform the exercise every day for one week. After a week, the BMI and hand grip was re-assessed. The studies thus indicates that the experimental group had a reduction in the hand grip and increase in the BMI value after resistance exercise and is also an effective method to prevent further complications that can be caused due to sarcopenia.

Abstract:
Introduction Sufficient infrastructure for information and communications technology (ICT) and a well-established policy are necessary factors for smooth implementation of telemedicine. However, despite these necessary conditions being met, there are situations where telemedicine still fails to be accepted as a system due to the low receptivity of stakeholders. In this study, we analyse stakeholders' resistance to an organization's implementation of telemedicine. Focusing on the physicians' interests, we propose a strategy to minimize conflicts and improve acceptance. Methods The Delphi study involved 190 telemedicine professionals who were recommended by 485 telemedicine-related personnel in South Korea. Results Out of 190 professionals, 60% of enrolled participants completed the final questionnaires. The stakeholders were categorized into four groups: policy-making officials, physicians, patients, and industrialists. Among these, the physicians were most opposed to the adoption of telemedicine. The main causes of such opposition were found to be the lack of a medical services delivery system and the threat of disruption for primary care clinics. Very little consensus was observed among the stakeholders, except on the following points: the need for expansion of the national health insurance budget by the government, and the need for enhancement of physicians' professional autonomy to facilitate smooth agreements. Discussion Our analysis on the causes of the resistance to telemedicine, carried out with the groups mentioned above, has important implications for policy-makers deriving strategies to achieve an appropriate consensus.

Abstract:
The spontaneous variability of heart rate and arterial blood pressure was investigated in chloralose-anesthetized dogs with the left iliac vascular bed mechanically uncoupled from the central circulation. Electrocardiogram, mean arterial pressure (ABP), iliac perfusion and venous pressures, and flow (FLOW) were recorded for 5 min in steady state. Autoregressive spectral and cross-spectral analyses and digital filtering were performed. The variation coefficient (VC%), calculated from the overall variance of each signal, was 5–7%, with the exception of perfusion pressure (VC% = 1%). The frequency-related percentage of total variance was distributed among three frequency bands: two were < 0.20 Hz [lower (F1) and higher (F2; low-frequency range = F1 + F2)], and one was > 0.20 Hz (respiratory, F3). F3 was not always present in RR, which, however, oscillated also in F1 and F2, although with limited amplitude; ABP showed large respiratory and low-frequency oscillations; the FLOW oscillations were in the low-frequency range. Cross-spectral analysis showed high squared coherence in the relevant frequency bands between variables in the three couples: RR-ABP, RR-FLOW, and ABP-FLOW. Changes in RR preceded changes in ABP and in FLOW by > or = 3 s, whereas FLOW was approximately in phase opposition to ABP. It was concluded that, in the chloralose-anesthetized dog, 1) arterial pressure and heart rate oscillate with frequencies corresponding to those described in conscious humans, 2) low-frequency arterial pressure oscillations are due to changes in peripheral vascular resistance, and 3) peripheral vascular resistance does not display respiratory oscillations. Furthermore it was suggested that oscillations of vasomotor tone are generated by a rhythm of central origin and that F1 and F2 oscillations may recognize a common mechanism.

Abstract:
While antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has rapidly ascended the political agenda in numerous high-income countries, developing effective and sustainable policy responses in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) is far from straightforward, as AMR could be described as a classic ‘wicked problem’. Effective policy responses to combat AMR in LMIC will require a deeper knowledge of the policy process and its actors at all levels—global, regional and national—and their motivations for supporting or opposing policies to combat AMR. The influence of personal interests and connections between for-profit organisations—such as pharmaceutical companies and food producers—and policy actors in these settings is complex and very rarely addressed. In this paper, the authors describe the role of policy analysis focusing on social constructions, governance and power relations in soliciting a better understanding of support and opposition by key stakeholders for alternative AMR mitigation policies. Owing to the lack of conceptual frameworks on the policy process addressing AMR, we propose an approach to researching policy processes relating to AMR currently tested through our empirical programme of research in Cambodia, Pakistan, Indonesia and Tanzania. This new conceptualisation is based on theories of governance and a social construction framework and describes how the framework is being operationalised in several settings.

Abstract:
Objective: To determine the number of specialised wound care units/clinics (SWCUs) in Spain, at present, and to describe their most important characteristics. Method: This was an observational study with a descriptive-analytical, cross-sectional, multicentre approach, where the studied population consisted of SWCUs in Spain. A specific data-collection questionnaire was designed using a modified Delphi method, consisting of four rounds, with the collaboration of 10 wound experts. The final questionnaire included 49 items distributed across four dimensions/areas with a content validity index (CVI-Total for pertinence=0.96 and CVI-Total for relevance=0.94. Results: A total of 42 SWCUs were included in the study. Most SWCUs were based in hospitals (n=15, 35.7%) or healthcare centres, covering a specific healthcare area (n=17, 40.5%). SWCU coordinators were primarily nurses (n=33, 78.6%). Staff members' professions in SWCUs included registered nurses (n=38 units, 92.7%), nursing assistants (n=8 units, 19.5%), podiatrists (n=8 units, 19.5%), vascular surgeons (n=7 units, 17%), osteopaths (n=2 units, 4.8%) and medical doctors from different specialties (n=3 units, 7.2%). For wound aetiology, the most prevalent wounds managed were diabetic foot ulcers (n=38 units, 90.5%), followed by venous leg ulcers (n=36 units, 85.7%) and arterial ischaemic ulcers (n=36 units, 85.7%). A statistically significant association was found between the number of staff members in a SWCU and the existence of resistance/opposition barriers when developing a SWCU (Chi-square test, p=0.049; Cramér's V=0.34; 34%), as well as between resistance/opposition barriers when developing a SWCU and a nurse as coordinator of a SWCU (MacNemar test, p=0.007, Cramér's V=0.35; 35%). Conclusion: The typical SWCU implemented in Spain is located in a hospital or integrated in a healthcare structure that offers coverage to a whole health area and providing services for people with hard-to-heal wounds (wound management and prevention) and health professionals (advice, consultancy and training/education). Despite the growing number of SWCUs in Spain, the future of this new organisational model is uncertain, as there can be barriers to creating them and some deficiencies, such as low staff numbers, which need to be addressed.

Abstract:
Attitudes toward the Three Rs concept of refinement, reduction and replacement in the United States in research and education are widely divergent. Positive responses have come from several sources, notably from four centres established to disseminate information about alternatives. Funding sources to support work in the Three Rs have proliferated. The activities of institutional oversight committees have resulted in the nationwide implementation of important refinements. In the field of education, student projects involving pain or death for sentient animals have declined, and the right of students to object to participation in animal experiments on ethical grounds has been widely established. However, there is still a long way to go. Resistance to alternatives is deep-seated within several of the scientific disciplines most closely associated with animal research. The response of the National Institutes of Health to potentially important Congressional directives on the Three Rs has been unsatisfactory. The prestigious National Association of Biology Teachers, which at first endorsed the use of alternatives in education, later rescinded this policy, because of opposition to it. An impediment to progress is the extreme polarisation of viewpoints between the biomedical community and the animal protectionists.

Abstract:
The majority of women's health nurses in this study work in generalist community health centres. They have developed their praxis within the philosophy and policies of the broader women's health movement and primary health care principles in Australia. The fundamental assumption underlying this study is that women's health nurses possess a unique body of knowledge and clinical wisdom that has not been previously documented and explored. The epistemological base from which these nurses' operate offers important insights into the substantive issues that create and continually shape the practice world of nurses and their clients. Whether this represents a (re)construction of the dominant forms of health care service delivery for women is examined in this study. The study specifically aims at exploring the practice issues and experience of women's health service provision by women's health nurses in the context of the provision of cervical cancer screening services. In mapping this particular group of nurses practice, it sets out to examine the professional and theoretical issues in contemporary nursing and women's health care. In critically analysing the powerful discourses that shape and reshape nursing work, the study raises the concern that previous analyses of pursing work tend to universalise the structural and social subordination of nurses and nursing knowledge. This universalism is most often based on examples of midwifery and nursing work in hospital settings, and subsequently, because of these conceptualisations, all of nursing is too often deemed as a dependent occupation, with little agency, and is analysed as always in relation to medicine, to hospitals, to other knowledge forms. Denoting certain discourses as dominant proposes a relationship of power and knowledge and the thesis argues that all work relations and practices in health are structured by certain power/knowledge relations. This analysis reveals that there IX are many competing and complimentary power/knowledge relations that structure nursing, but that nursing, and in particular women's health nurses, also challenge the power/knowledge relations around them. Through examining theories of power and knowledge the analysis, argues that theoretical eclecticism is necessary to address the complex and varied nature of nursing work. In particular it identifies that postmodern and radical feminist theorising provide the most appropriate framework to further analyse and interpret the work of women's health nurses. Fundamental to the position argued in this thesis is a feminist perspective. This position creates important theoretical and methodological links throughout the whole study. Feminist methodology was employed to guide the design, the collection and the analysis. Intrinsic to this process was the use of the 'voices' of women's health nurses as the basis for theorising. The 'voices' of these nurses are highlighted in the chapters as italicised bold script. A constant companion along the way in examining women's health nurses' work, was the reflexivity with feminist research processes, the theoretical discussions and their 'voices'. Capturing and analysing descriptive accounts of nursing praxis is seen in this thesis as providing a way to theorise about nursing work. This methodology is able to demonstrate the knowledge forms embedded in clinical nursing praxis. Three conceptual threads emerge throughout the discussions: one focuses on nursing praxis as a distinct process, with its own distinct epistemological base rather than in relation to 'other' knowledge forms; another describes the medical restriction and opposition as experienced by this group of nurses, but also of their resistance to medical opposition. The third theme apparent from the interviews, and which was conceptualised as beyond resistance, was the description of the alternative discourses evident in nursing work, and this focused on notions of being a professional and on autonomous nursing praxis. This study concludes that rather than accepting the totalising discourses about nursing there are examples within nursing of resistance—both ideologically and X in practice—to these dominant discourses. Women's health nurses represent an important model of women's health service delivery, an analysis of which can contribute to critically reflecting on the 'paradigm of oppression' cited in nursing and about nursing more generally. Reflecting on women's health service delivery also has relevance in today's policy environment, where structural shifts in Commonwealth/State funding arrangements in community based care, may undermine women's health programs. In summary this study identifies three important propositions for nursing: • nursing praxis can reconstruct traditional models of health care; • nursing praxis is powerful and able to 'resist' dominant discourses; and • nursing praxis can be transformative. Joining feminist perspectives and alternative analyses of power provides a pluralistic and emancipatory politics for viewing, describing and analysing 'other' nursing work. At the micro sites of power and knowledge relations—in the everyday practice worlds of nurses, of negotiation and renegotiation, of work on the margins and at the centre—women's health nurses' praxis operates as a positive, productive and reconstructive force in health care.

Abstract:
The Mnazi Bay-Ruvuma Estuary Marine Park (MBREMP) in southeastern Tanzania has been touted as a ‘win-win’ project in public discourses, given its potential mutual benefits for marine biodiversity and local resource users. In this thesis, however, I argue that residents of Msimbati, a large fishing village within its catchment area, oppose the marine park, citing its negative impacts on their everyday lives. Drawing on four months of ethnographic fieldwork conducted in Msimbati village, which included participant observation, forty in-depth interviews and four focus group discussions, this thesis examines the village residents’ specific reasons for contesting the MBREMP, and subsequently, the different forms of resistance they employ to mobilize their opposition to the marine park. Using the concept of environmental governance, I maintain that people in Msimbati have been excluded from significant processes of conservation-related decision-making. Consequently, the management priorities of the MBREMP underrepresent their perceived needs and well-being. Furthermore, many study participants perceived the introduction of conservation regulations within the MBREMP as overt assertions of state power intended to control and subjugate the people of Msimbati. I argue that this finding closely resembles Michel Foucault’s notion of governmentality. In response to this perceived top-down flow of power, I discuss the abilities of village residents to exercise their individual and collective agency through explicit acts of resistance against the MBREMP. I argue, however, that the fear of state violence deters most village residents from engaging in acts that convey visible opposition to the MBREMP. Many people in Msimbati instead choose to engage in subtle acts of noncompliance to the conservation regulations. These acts are entangled with material benefits and moral statements about customary rights to resources. They can also facilitate political mobility by undermining the success of the conservation effort, while simultaneously avoiding open confrontation with governing authorities. Ultimately, this thesis brings to the fore the on-the-ground complexities of marine conservation in a resource-dependent coastal fishing village in southeastern Tanzania. I demonstrate the importance of taking an ethnographic approach to understanding the nuanced and context-specific reasons for local opposition to marine protected area formation in coastal communities.

Abstract:
My intention in conducting this research endeavor is to satisfy the requirements of earning a Master of Art degree in the Department of History at the University of Central Florida. My research aim has been to examine literature written from the 1930's through 2006 which chronicles the lives of Jewish and Gentile German men, women, and children living under Nazism during the years 1933-1945. I was particularly interested and hopeful in discovering the various ways in which young German females were affected by the introduction and spread of Nazi ideology. My main goal was to sort through the features of everyday life to extricate the often subtle ways Germans rebuffed conformity to Nazism. And as the research commenced, it became increasingly necessary to acknowledge and distinguish the ongoing historical debate about what aspects of non-conformity are acceptably considered "resistance" among contemporary historians also analyzing this period. The original research questions I hoped to address and discuss were firstly these; Upon the arrival of Nazism on the heels of the Weimar Republic, how was Nazism received by German citizens; secondly, once Nazism gathered a contingent of strong support, what avenues existed for those opposed to Nazism?; and thirdly, in what ways did opposition, resistance, and non-conformance to Nazism manifest itself? This examination focused singly on efforts and motivations of German citizens within Germany, to illuminate reactions and actions of women and children; whether Jewish, Protestant, or Catholic because I feel their stories are often over-looked as being insignificant. This study further recognizes the contributions and great courage which manifest when faced with Hitler's totalitarian regime.

Abstract:
This thesis uses the War on Poverty’s Community Action Programs as a prism through which to examine the evolution of post-1965 Massive Resistance and its interconnection with the emerging new conservatism. In examining the white relationship with Mississippi’s antipoverty programs, this thesis traces an ‘evolving resistance’ that utilised some of the methods and mechanisms of the earlier Massive Resistance, but which also drew on ostensibly race natural articulations of opposition to social welfare and saw a return to the paternalism characteristic of earlier Southern race relations. In examining the grassroots development of the colour-blind rhetoric that would become a significant trope of conservative opposition to social welfare, this thesis adds a new dimension to the rural Deep South’s contributions to the emerging national conservatism. Further, this thesis offers new insights into the failings of the War on Poverty at the grassroots by placing racial discrimination and intra-racial class divisions at the heart of its analysis of four Community Action Programs. The Community Action Program Southwest Mississippi Opportunities highlights how OEO failings at the local, regional and national levels perpetuated racial discrimination. The white response to Jackson’s Community Action Program, Community Services Association, reveals how interracial middle-class coalitions developed through the program and perpetuated a destructive racial discrimination. Case studies of two statewide programs, Mississippi Action for Progress and Strategic Training and Redevelopment showcase how intra-racial class divisions aided white supremacists shape antipoverty programs from conduits for community action into mechanisms to suppress black activism, as well as offering new insights into the role of white moderates in Mississippi’s altered racial landscape. Finally, this thesis explores the destructive impact of the nascent Mississippi Republican Party and the Nixon Administration on the War on Poverty at the grassroots.

Abstract:
Serious resistance to urban growth in the Southwest arose at the beginning of the post World War II boom and persisted throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Most historians of the urban West ignore this early resistance. Even New Western historians truncate their studies of urbanization in the Southwest by assuming that serious opposition to development only appeared with the rise of environmentalism in the late 1960s. Urbanization in Tucson and Albuquerque proceeded in the face of constant protest. The expressions of opposition to urban expansion arose in conservative and libertarian political critiques and in ethnic resistance to urban renewal plans that targeted barrio areas. A loosely defined environmentalism appeared in these early forms of resistance as residents fought to preserve their lifestyle and native culture.

Abstract:
This thesis examines ways in which rural mountain women of Andean Peru and southern Appalachia use their lived histories and food knowledge in ways that counter Cartesian epistemologies regarding national and international food systems. Using women’s fiction and cookbooks, this thesis examines how voice and narrative reclaim women’s spaces within food landscapes. Further, this thesis examines women’s non-profits and grassroots organizations to illustrate the ways in which rural mountain women expand upon their lived histories in ways that contribute to tangible solutions to poverty and hunger in rural mountainous communities. The primary objective of this thesis is to recover rural mountain women’s voices in relation to food culture and examine how their food knowledge contributes to improving local food policy and reducing hunger in frontline communities.

Abstract:
In order to speak of indigenous resistance and understand it in the Colombian context, wemust take into account not only the conditions of conflict but also how state power is configured. So, we should address the structural failure of the state and understand how it leads to incomplete state intervention in the whole Colombian territory, which in turn, causes unfulfillment of basic needs and lack of legitimacy in peripheral areas. Due to this failure of the state, indigenous communities native to those areas are forced to meet their needs by means of alternative routes, such as the formation of their own government, which is legitimate and legal on constitutional terms. They are able to do so with support from organizations such as the Regional Indigenous Council of the Cauca (CRIC) or the imposed link with illegal armed groups (imposed because it is not legitimate but a reality close to indigenous communities) who use their coercive force to replace public institutions and provide services such as health, safety and the maintenance of order under their particular logics.Indigenous communities have developed self-government with identity and territoriality, which leads to new forms of organization of power. An example of this is the Regional Indigenous Council of Cauca, which represents the interests of all indigenous communities of the Cauca and promotes communication with indigenous people from other areas. This work pays significant attention to the CRIC since it contains characteristics of power such as resistance, discourses of truth and a link with law.
Al hablar de resistencia indígena, situándola dentro del contexto colombiano, habremos de tener en cuenta no solo las condiciones de conflicto, sino también cómo se configura el poder dominante materializado en el Estado. De esta forma, debemos adentrarnos en la falla estructural del Estado y cómo, a consecuencia de esto, se evidencia una capacidad incompleta de intervención estatal en todo el territorio colombiano. Como consecuencia, hallamos necesidades básicas insatisfechas y una falta de legitimación del mismo territorio en zonas aledañas. Gracias a esta falla, las comunidades indígenas (propias de estas zonas aledañas) se ven obligadas a satisfacer sus necesidades por ciertas vías alternativas: la formación de un gobierno propio (legítimo y legal en términos constitucionales) con la ayuda de organismos también propios, como el Consejo Regional Indígena del Cauca (CRIC); o la impositiva vinculación (impositiva porque no es legítima, pero es una realidad cercana a las comunidades indígenas) con los grupos armados al margen de la ley, quienes a partir de su fuerza coactiva remplazan en gran medida a las instituciones pública y proveen servicios de salud, seguridad y de mantenimiento del orden bajo sus lógicas.Las comunidades indígenas han desarrollado a partir de sus condiciones un gobierno propio que implica identidad y territorialidad, dando origen a nuevas y ricas formas de organización del poder. Como ejemplo, dado que representa y agrupa los intereses de todas las comunidades indígenas del Cauca y propicia la comunicación con indígenas de otras zonas, está el Consejo Regional Indígena del Cauca, al que prestaremos atención ya que contiene características de mpoder como la resistencia, los discursos de verdad y la vinculación con el derecho.

Abstract:
Banned opposition movements dedicated to the overthrow of repressive governments have existed for centuries. In the second half of the 20th century, while some terrorist organizations in Western Europe, the United States, and Japan have resorted to violence in pursuit of their goal of world revolution, others, particularly, in the Third World, have engaged in acts of resistance, including violence, for the attainment of their democratic rights. Today, the more serious opposition movements are able to obtain support from outside sources for the pursuit of their aims. This thesis, deals first with the fundamental theoretical questions germane to the study of any opposition movement in current times (Chapter 1). Thereafter, as a researched case study, it focuses on "The National Movement of the Iranian Resistance (NAMIR)", led by Dr. Shapour Bakhtiar which was the first political movement to come out in opposition to the theocratic dictatorship in Iran. The thesis recounts Bakhtiar's political background (Chapter 2) and gives a detailed account of his activities in NAMIR from July 1979 until his brutal assassination in August 1991 (Chapters 3-6). Finally, it is hoped that this researched presentation will facilitate for students of international politics a better understanding of some of the critical concepts and issues relevant to the role of banned opposition movements in contemporary international politics.

Abstract:
We have seen drastic changes in the music profession during the last 20 years, and consequently an increase of new professional opportunities, roles and identities. We can see elements of a collective identity in classically trained musicians who from childhood have been introduced to centuries old, institutionalized traditions around the performers’ role and the work-concept. Respect for the composer and his work can lead to a fear of failure and a perfectionist value system that permeates the classical music. We have to question whether music education has become a ready-made prototype of certain trajectories, with a predictable outcome represented by more or less generic types of musicians who interchangeably are able play the same, limited canonized repertoire, in more or less the same way. Where is the resistance and obstacles, the detours and the unique and fearless individual choices? It is a paradox that within the traditional master-student model, the student is told how to think, play and relate to established truths, while a sustainable musical career is based upon questioning the very same things. A fundamental principle of an independent musical career is to develop a capacity for critical reflection and a healthy opposition towards uncontested truths. However, the unison demands for modernization of institutions and their role cannot be solved with a quick fix, we must look at who we are and who we have been to look at who we can become. Central here is the question of how the music students perceive their own identity and role. To make the leap from a traditional instrumentalist role to an artist /curator role requires commitment in an entirely different way. In this article, I will examine question of identity - how identity may be constituted through musical and educational experiences. The article will discuss why identity work is a key area in the development of a sustainable music career and it will investigate how we can approach this and suggest some possible ways in this work. We shall see how identity work can be about unfolding possible future selves (Marcus & Nurius, 1986), develop and evolve one’s own personal journey and narrative. Central is how identity develops linguistically by seeing other possibilities: "identity is formed out of the discourses - in the broadest sense - that are available to us ..." (Ruud, 2013). The question is: How can higher music education (HME) facilitate students in their identity work in the process of constructing their professional identities? I draw on my own experience as a classically educated musician in the discussion.
