Ozaloglu, Serpil. "Transformation Of Ankara Between 1935-1950 In Relation With Everyday Life And Lived Spatiality." Phd thesis, METU, 2003. http://etd.lib.metu.edu.tr/upload/12607316/index.pdf.
Full texts urban environment into a modern one was one of the objectives of the Early Republican period. In the study, the transformation of urban culture is traced through everyday life of the inhabitants and lived spatiality in the new and old/traditional parts of the city. Urban culture clearly manifests itself in urban public spaces by means of everyday life and lived spatiality. It is not only the elite but the humble income social groups which are the main agents/actors of the transforming urban culture. In Ankara, gradual appropriation of a modern life style takes place in the urban public spaces but these spaces do not have to be part of the grand narrative of nation-building. Cultural places (Sergievi, theaters, movie theaters, people&rsquo
s houses), recreation places (parks, coffee shops, restaurants), shopping areas, streets and boulevards, districts are spaces of everyday life and new spatial and bodily practices flourish in these spaces. The reality of the city shelters both the new/modern, the old, and the spontaneously developing urban environments which equally participated in the transformation process. The research is based on memory in the study. Written documents, newspapers, literary constructions, memoirs and interviews with the old inhabitants of the city are the main sources. According to the analyses made on the obtained data, Ankara was a fruitful medium for creation of a modern urban culture during the mentioned period and middle social groups were the main components of this transformation process.

Full textThis article addresses the transformations in which childhood is experienced among the Kaiowa of te’ýikue, both in everyday life and at school. the data used for this article comes from ethnographic field research and emphasizes historical information as well as native perceptions and interpretations. The Kaiowa have experienced an intensification of their relationship with other brazilians (brancos) that has brought social and cultural transformations. Due to this process, the Kaiowa have developed specific strategies in indigenous schools related to the everyday life of their families as well as the education of their children. the article discusses different key issues such as childhood, children education and cultural transformations in dialogue with native categories.
Borén, Thomas. "Meeting-places of Transformation : Urban Identity, Spatial Representations and Local Politics in St Petersburg, Russia." Doctoral thesis, Stockholm University, Department of Human Geography, 2005. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:su:diva-412.
Full textThis study develops a model for understanding spatial change and the construction of space as a meeting-place, and then employs it in order to show an otherwise little-known picture of (sub-)urban Russia and its transformation from Soviet times to today. The model is based on time-geographic ideas of time-space as a limited resource in which forces of various kinds struggle for access and form space in interaction with each other. Drawing on cultural semiotics and the concepts of lifeworld and system, the study highlights the social side of these space-forming forces. Based on a long-term fieldwork (participant observation) in Ligovo/Uritsk, a high-rise residential district developed around 1970 and situated on the outskirts of Sankt-Peterburg (St Petersburg), the empirical material concerns processes of urban identity, spatial representations and local politics. The study explicates three codes used to form the image of the city that all relate to its pre-Revolutionary history, two textual strategies of juxtaposition in creating the genius loci of a place, and a discussion of what I call Soviet "stiff landscape" in relation to Soviet mental and ordinary maps of the urban landscape. Moreover, the study shows that the newly implemented self-governing municipalities have not realised their potential as political actors in forming local space, which raises questions on the democratisation of urban space. Finally, the study argues that the model that guides the research is a tool that facilitates the application of the world-view of time-geography and the epistemology of the landscape of courses in concrete research. The study ends with an attempt to generalise spatial change in four types.

Full textThe study takes its point of departure in the notions of life story, narrativity and context. It is based on extensive life story interviews with well-educated professionals in Poland – academics, teachers, managers, physicians, artists – during the period of transformation (or transition) from ”real socialism” to democracy and a market economy. The aim is to analyse the multilayered process of constructing a personal identity, as the narrators interweave stories about their lives with images of history and society. The central approach is narrative analysis, focusing on the interview interaction as well as the wider cultural, societal and political context in which the self-presentation takes place, and which it simultaneously creates. Concepts of cultural and paradigmatic narratives are combined with a gender perspective and selected terms from Pierre Bourdieus theory of practice. The narrators’ life experiences are shaped and evaluated in an implicit dialogue with cultural narratives of ideal biographies, professional careers, gender roles and family models in Poland during socialism and the transformation. In family background stories, the ancestors’ gendered biographies are depicted in relation to the underlying paradigm of the romantic-patriotic tradition. In childhood stories, the evaluation models used are psychological, social and based on political correctedness. The interviewees often shape their nostalgic, bitter and ambivalent memories against a background of the power relations between the family and the state, using nostalgia, dark rhetorics and a well-established genre of coping strategies during the socialism. In narratives about formal school-education during the socialist period, two paradigms are seen as highly incongruous: the intellectual-elitistic tradition and the socialistic citizen-schooling. Also stories of being a part of both formal and oppositional organisations and networks are told. In narratives about careers and working life, the pride in doing a good work is prevalent, but the narrators also depict complications in the professional paradigm due to the proliferation of politicised and informal power relations; en influence still lasting during the transformation period. The troubled issues of legitimacy, status and economy are discussed. In stories about close relationships, there is an underlying paradigm of love, marrital happiness and being a good parent, even though the stories follow a variety of plots. The evaluations become complex and sometimes contradictory. By presenting their life-experience in a proud, ambivalent, defensive or ironic way, the narrators reproduce, deconstruct and challenge the dominant cultural narratives, shaping their unique personal paradigms.

Full textEnergianvändningen är en del av vardagen likaväl som användningen av energi är en del av den globala klimatförändringen. För att mildra effekterna på vår gemensamma miljö uppmanas människor av politiker och andra beslutsfattare att förändra sitt vardagsbeteende. I avhandlingen betraktas vardagsbeteendet som människors dagliga aktiviteter. Avhandlingens teoretiska grund är den tidsgeografiska ansatsen, där människors vardag betraktas som en sekvens av de aktiviteter som utförs av odelbara individer. Människors dagliga sekvens av aktiviteter undersöks för att ta reda på vilken energianvändning som genomförandet av aktiviteterna ger upphov till. Den empiriska grunden för avhandlingen är tidsdagboksdata från den svenska tidsanvändningsstudien från 2010/2011 och avhandlingen utforskar tidsdagböckerna som sekvenser av aktiviteter med hjälp av sekvens- och klusteranalys. Resultaten visar att individers energianvändning är nära sammanvävd med de aktivitetssekvenser som visar hur vardagslivet levs. Resultaten pekar vidare på att förändringar av enskilda aktiviteter också påverkar andra aktiviteter i det dagliga livet. Förändringar av en aktivitet påverkar således hela den dagliga sekvensen av aktiviteter. I utformningen av information som syftar till att minska hushållens energianvändning bör hänsyn tas till hur vardagslivets aktivitetssekvens formas av den enskilde i samspelet både med andra individer i hushållet och med samhällsstrukturerna. Målgruppsinriktad information kan utformas med utgångspunkt from människors likartade aktivitetsmönster så som de framgår genom klusteranalys.

A modernidade representou um novo período de mudanças para o mundo, com o desenvolvimento da indústria, das máquinas e das tecnologias, além da metropolização das grandes cidades, que alterou a percepção e os quadros de vida do citadino. Com as mudanças empreendidas durante este período, foi possível notar um novo interesse pelo cotidiano urbano. Os acontecimentos históricos, assim como a revolução estética na Arte e o fim das utopias levam a crer que o olhar crítico para o cotidiano é uma das maneiras de indagar o pensamento contemporâneo. A partir de exemplos de travessias deste cotidiano na arte, como a exposição Cotidiano radical, de Marco Paulo Rolla (2015) e o filme Relatos Selvagens, de Damián Szifron (2014), esta dissertação pretende elucidar de que maneira a arte consegue mobilizar não só o cotidiano banal, mas também o cotidiano radical, definindo esta radicalidade, que potencializa o efeito reflexivo do contemporâneo.
The modernity represented a new period of changings to the world, with the development of Industry, the machines and the technologies, besides the metropolization of the great cities, that changed the perception and the scenes of the urban life of citizen. With the changing during this period, as the aesthetic revolution in Art, and the end of the utopias, makes us wonder that the critic view to the everyday life is one of the many ways to inquire the contemporary thinking. From the examples of crossings of this everyday life in art, like the exhibition Radical everyday life, from Marco Paulo Rolla (2015), and the film Wild tales, from Damián Szifron (2014), this dissertation intend to elucidate in which way art can mobilize not just the banal everyday life, but also the radical everyday life, defining this radicality, that potencializes the reflexive effect in the contemporary.

In this thesis, I have designed, implemented and evaluated different user interfaces that enable users to get a deeper understanding of life in different cultures. Specifically, I have focused on user interfaces that enable and inspire the contribution and consumption of visual media that highlights the subtleties of everyday life. This thesis was completed via the researcher-as-designer approach where I explored and tackled the different design challenges in the intersection of cultural understanding and photo-sharing that this thesis lies within.
