Includes bibliographical references (leaves 82-89).The aim of my teaching intervention, dialogue journal writing, was to counter these deficit perceptions by affirming the marginal home language at school. More importantly, I aimed to give children who do not often get the opportunity to do so, the space to voice themselves in writing. My research, therefore, aimed at investigating the dialogue journal writing process as a means of raising the status of Xhosa at school, as well as to affirm the voices of children in asymmetrical multilingual settings.

Texto completoResumen
In spite of the growing interest of Russian and Western scholars in Sergei Dovlatov and his art, his place in Russian literature has not yet been clearly defined. His position as a writer in Russia in the 1960s and early 70s was ambiguous due to his opposition to the traditional Soviet canon and rejection by the current literary establishment. However, he later gained recognition and popularity as an emigre writer in the United States. The concept of 'marginality' colours his biography and art, for his life itself was a succession of marginal experiences and marginality is the key topic of his writings.Marginality unifies Dovlatov's art. This is evident in his marginal status as a writer in and outside the Soviet Union, and in his writing which uses the underappreciated short form of narration (the novella and short story), develops a non-traditional conversational style, pursues the themes of non-conventional behaviour and introduces eccentric characters.
However, it is not possible to discuss Dovlatov's status as a marginal writer without contextualizing his life and art in the ambience of the entire generation of Leningrad writers of the sixties. Writers and poets such as Brodskii, Goliavkin, Gubin, Vakhtin and Ufliand do not only represent the culture of Leningrad's artistic non-conformists, they are also Dovlatov's prototypes and protagonists. Apart from their marginal status, all these writers shared the determination to make independent choices in life and in art. They refused to be viewed as marginal authors by the dominant canon, which disregarded their works as insignificant. Here as well marginality emerges as a literary concept and a behavioural model, shaped by societal norms (the positive type of citizen or official Soviet writer) and traditional canons (the Russian didactic tradition or Soviet ideological writing). This literary concept includes an orientation towards American literature, the creation of marginal characters and themes as well as an exploration of different styles.
The works of writers of the Leningrad circle laid the foundation for the emergence of a literary phenomenon such as Dovlatov. It is in delineating this context that this dissertation demonstrates Dovlatov's original approach to marginality, as well as the way he turned his life experience into literature and became a spokesman for neglected fellow writers and citizens.

Texto completoResumen
Em um mundo cada vez mais transnacional e multicultural, a identidade cultural é formada por meio de um processo constante de mobilidade e deslocamentos, resultando na formação de identidades culturais diaspóricas. Tais identidades culturais híbridas e heterogêneas se caracterizam por travessias de fronteiras e limitações impostas à construção da subjetividade. O presente estudo consiste em uma análise interpretativa de representações de identidades culturais diaspóricas em dois escritos autobiográficos ficcionais: Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza (1987), de Gloria Anzaldúa e Zami A New Spelling of my Name, a biomythography (1982), de Audre Lorde. As representações de identidades culturais diaspóricas desenvolvidas em ambos os textos produzem efeitos que desestabilizam a política de representação da identidade cultural articulando identificações e desejos informados por hibridismo e diferença bem como reconstruindo a categoria da experiência e a produção do conhecimento através da ficcionalização da construção da identidade. O objetivo é investigar como as vozes narrativas projetam representações de identidades culturais diaspóricas simultaneamente resistentes e marginais em relação à cultura hegemônica. Tais representações são analisadas à luz do seguinte referencial teórico: a reconstrução da categoria da experiência de Joan Scott; a teoria dos conhecimentos situados de Donna Haraway; e uma estratégia crítica que propõe uma intersecção entre argumentos advindos do pensamento feminista e pós-moderno, que postulam a identidade como um constructo fluído, múltiplo, e instável, sustentada em The Politics of Postmodernism, de Linda Hutcheon; a coleção de ensaios editada por Linda Nicholson, Feminism/Postmodernism; e The Postmodern Condition, de Jean-François Lyotard. O referencial teórico oferece uma perspectiva privilegiada para a investigação de representações de identidades culturais que questionam a concepção de identidade como fixa autônoma e anterior ao contexto sócio-histórico no qual a identidade e sua representação são formadas.In an increasingly transnational and multicultural world, cultural identities are shaped through a constant process of mobility and displacements, resulting in the formation of diasporic cultural identities. These hybrid heterogeneous cultural identities are characterized by multiple crossings of borders and limitations imposed on the construction of a sense of subjectivity. The present study consists of an interpretative analysis of representations of diasporic cultural identities in two fictional autobiographical writings: Gloria Anzaldúa’s Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza (1987) and Audre Lorde’s Zami A New Spelling of my Name, a biomythography (1982). The representations of diasporic cultural identities developed in both texts produce disruptive effects on the politics of representation of cultural identity by articulating identifications and desires informed by hybridity and difference as well as reconstructing the category of experience and the production of knowledge through the fictionalization of the construction of identity. The objective is to investigate how the narrative voices project representations of diasporic cultural identities simultaneously resistant and “marginal” to the hegemonic culture. These representations are analyzed under the following theoretical framework: Joan Scott’s reconceptualization of the category of experience; Donna Haraway’s theory of situated knowledges; and a critical strategy that proposes an intersection of arguments derived from feminist and postmodern thinking, which posit identity as a fluid, multiple, and unstable construct, supported on Linda Hutcheon’s The Politics of Postmodernism; the collection of essays edited by Linda Nicholson, Feminism/Postmodernism; and Jean-François Lyotard’s The Postmodern Condition. The theoretical framework provides a privileged perspective to investigate representations of cultural identity that question the conception of identity as fixed, autonomous, and prior to the social-historical context in which identity and its representation are shaped.

Texto completoResumen
This study provides fresh insights into the process of social exclusion by comparing it with the discourse of developmentalism to offer a wider theoretical understanding of the issues related to marginalisation and powerlessness. The study argues that people experiencing exclusion from the social and economic processes are further left out in a media environment largely biased against minorities, driven by commercial considerations and protected by tight regulatory regimes. As an alternative to this media situation, the thesis explores the role of small-scale and community-based media in developing a contextual approach to communication that can help to validate marginalised points of view, and develop a dynamic link between people‘s experiences and expression. These arguments are illustrated through a participatory action research project, using an interdisciplinary framework informed by a variety of emancipatory, spiritual and critical perspectives. Looking specifically at the pertinent issue of inequalities in health faced by the members of the Mirpuri community in the UK, the thesis examined the role of Radio Ramzan, a faith-based community broadcasting initiative, in facilitating a communicative interaction during a multi-agency health education campaign. The study established that peoples‘ reference to cultural practices and experiential knowledge empowers them to counter their situated, stigmatized and essentialised existences. Within this discourse, the study demonstrated that a community radio station can provide a socio-cultural context to develop and promote a holistic approach to deal with exclusion.

This study looks into communicative processes and media practices among members of a subaltern social movement. The aim is to gain an understanding of how these processes and practices contribute to symbolic cohesion in the movement, how they develop and are socialized into practices, and how these processes and practices help challenge hegemonic groups in society. These questions are explored through a qualitative study, based on fieldwork and interviews, of a subaltern social movement. The empirical object of the study is the Brazilian Landless Workers Movement (MST), which was founded in 1984 to promote agrarian reform and defend the rights of rural workers in Brazil. At the macro-level, the discussion addresses social realities marked by the meta-processes of globalisation, neo-liberalisation, and mediatisation. Against this background, the experiences of MST militants and of the movement as a whole help us to understand how different communicative processes play a role in the ways people experience globalisation, neo-liberalisation, and mediatisation in their daily lives. Departing from an understanding of communication as a process that structures practices (mediated and non-mediated), this study questions the media-centric understanding of communication, arguing that media practices are created through appropriation processes. The results show that communicative processes are crucial to reinforcing values and symbologies associated with the rural worker identity. There is also a high level of reflexivity about media practices and an understanding that they must serve the principles of the collective. As a consequence, the movement seeks to maintain control over media, routinely discussing and evaluating the adoption and use of media. The interviews show ambivalence towards the alleged dialogic and organisational potential of digital media and to the adaptability of these media to the MST’s organisational processes. Through observation, it is possible to conclude that media have an instrumental function, as opposed to a structural function, in the processes of social transformation engendered by the MST.This study looks into communicative processes and media practices among members of a subaltern social movement.

Texto completoResumen
Alternate programs within schools are spaces born of alternate views and the recognition that mainstream schooling does not fully engage all students. Such programs harbour students who have come to be known as “marginalized,” among a plethora of other labels, such as: at-risk, disenfranchised, drop-out, handicapped, not meeting expectations, falling between the cracks, impoverished, disadvantaged, remedial, delinquent. Rather than becoming a place of deficit, the site of alternate settings can be a space of transformation where students begin to find their voice. In this study, former alternate school students engage in dialogue with their former teacher to (re)-explore their path within the alternate setting in writing and narrative within the methodological frames of critical pedagogy and narrative inquiry. Whispers from the margin appear as students enter alternate settings and begin to reflect upon their stories of pain and healing. In line with Hannah Arendt’s concept of primary natality, students within this educative alternate space are able to exercise their natality through self-reflection before entering the political world. As students confront their belatedness and natality in an old world, inquiry into their narrative shapes their interpretation of the world and their role within it. As student voices grow louder in the grip of narrative inquiry as a microphone for their story, transformation of Self leads to the responsibility of Arendt’s political natality and Paulo Freire’s praxis and obligation towards humanity. On this transformative platform, students stand at the intersections of social, political, and educative tensions and begin to hold a megaphone to a narrative that can continue to reflect the imaginings of alternate views from the margin.Education, Faculty of

Texto completoResumen
The aim of this essay is to critically consider Arundhati Roy’s novel The God of Small Things from a postcolonial feminist perspective, with a special focus on how she models different representations of women, taking as a background the discussions within postcolonial feminism about subalternity and the representations of women from the so-called Third World in theory and literature, as well as the concept of agency from Cultural Studies. This purpose is reached by studying and comparing three main female characters in the novel: Mammachi, Baby Kochamma and Ammu, centering on their different ways of relating to the male hero of the novel, Velutha, an Untouchable in the lingering caste system of India. The essay argues that Roy has contributed with diverse representations of subaltern women in the ‘Third World’ who—despite their oppressed and marginalized status—display agency and are portrayed as responsible for their own actions.

Texto completoResumen
This dissertation study explores the rise of Irish women poets of the twentieth century, in particular Eavan Boland from the southern Republic of Ireland and Medbh McGuckian from Northern Ireland. It investigates the birth of Irish Feminist Literary Theory and Irish Postcolonial Literary Theory and uses these two theories to analyze the poetry found therein. This project shows that, unlike Irish women novelists and playwrights, Irish women poets were excluded from the Irish canon until poets such as Boland and McGuckian destabilized their once rigid national literary tradition and challenged it to include women as both authors and subjects of the Irish poem. In addition to challenging their patriarchal literary tradition, Irish women poets of the twentieth century also drew attention to the lingering effects of British colonial rule in Ireland, demonstrating that Irish women poets were doubly colonized and doubly marginalized. As a result, their poetry features two distinct voices: one which speaks for the women who were silenced in Ireland and one which raises postcolonial issues. By challenging the hegemonic power structures which dominated them, Boland and McGuckian paved the way for the Irish women poets who followed, including Mary O'Malley from the Republic of Ireland and Sinéad Morrissey from Northern Ireland. For the most part, Irish women poets of the twenty-first century have managed to let go of the trauma of colonization—both patriarchal and imperial—and have created a new hybrid national identity, a Third Space, which has liberated their work. This hybridity has broadened the vision of the Irish poem which now features a new global voice.

Texto completoResumen
The way that interpersonal conflict is displayed and navigated is informed by broader discourses about the nature of gender roles, gender expectations, and understandings of what it means to be a girl in regional Australia. This research explores the role of conflict in everyday school interactions for the female students of one regional secondary school in the state of Victoria, Australia. For these female students, the nature of their interpersonal conflict was either widely discussed and scrutinised by teachers, adults and other students, or ignored and silenced by the same groups. For the young women of Rural Valley, their experience of conflict is intrinsically tied to the cultural spaces and places they occupy. In this thesis, young women’s voices and experiences of conflict in a regional secondary school are considered through a critical perspective situated within critical theory. A critical ethnography has been conducted drawing upon the notion of horizontal violence to develop understandings of the nature of conflict as experienced by young women from regional Australia. In order to illuminate the lived experiences of conflict for young women, narrative portraiture is used as a representational method to deconstruct traditional views of ethnographic writing. In doing so, this research provides a counter-narrative to dominant discourses about how young women experience and manage conflict and how they navigate their relationships when conflict arises. This research is significant because it challenges stereotypical notions of what conflict means to young girls in a regional secondary school context. The findings of this study highlight that young women use group-specific strategies to negotiate friendships and confront structural inequalities of a hegemonic education system. This research ultimately advocates for understandings of conflict that move away from deficit discourses to advance discussions concerned with the gendered nature of violence within Australian society.Doctor of Philosophy

Texto completoResumen
This Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) explores the lived experience of students who present with Social Emotional Behavioural Difficulties (SEBD) during their Mathematics lesson at school. Hence, it attempts to give them a voice with regards to their learning experience in the subject. The aims of the research were to (i) explore how students presenting with SEBD experience learning in the Mathematics classroom; and (ii) suggest educational strategies and interventions that could help in offering students presenting with SEBD with a more engaging learning experience. The participants of this study were four students exhibiting with SEBD aged between 12 and 13 years old. The data was collected over a period of 12 weeks. The main data sources included recorded video diaries and semi-structured interviews. The main research findings indicate that the behaviour of students exhibiting with SEBD in the Mathematics classroom is linked to the curriculum, emotions, relationships, consequences and appraisals.

Texto completoResumen
This is a multi-modal, authoethnographic study which examines the development of my voice as a composer. It consists of a folio of music scores, two CD recordings, and an exegesis. The principal question of how my musical identity has been shaped by my experiences as a jazz practitioner has been examined through composing music, personal writing and reflection, and an examination of relevant literature. The compositions reveal the main influences in my musical identity - jazz, western art music and Latin music, as well as their connection to the places which have inspired their creation. They range from an art song cycle to Afro-Cuban dance music, reflecting the hybrid nature of my practice. The exegesis makes use of contemporary feminist musicology and cultural studies to examine the nature of my experiences as an Anglo-Canadian/Australian woman pianist trying to find her place in strongly male-identified Latin and jazz music communities. It addresses the historical eclipsing of the role of women in jazz, and examines the negotiation of gender dynamics in the job market and on the band stand in the various communities where I have lived and worked. Both the music and the narrative seek to add a unique voice to the ever-evolving and diversifying story of jazz in the 21st-century.Thesis (Professional Doctorate)

Bun, Mylène. "Etude des mécanismes moléculaires induits par l’activation de la voie de signalisation NOTCH2 dans les lymphomes B de la zone marginale de la rate (SMZL) NOTCH-Induced MYC Expression Is Required for Marginal Zone Lymphoma Cell Survival". Thesis, université Paris-Saclay, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020UPASL067.
Texto completoResumen
Le lymphome B de la zone marginale de la rate (SMZL) est un lymphome non-hodgkinien qui touche principalement les sujets âgés (65 ans). Ce type de lymphome de B de la zone marginale se caractérise par une prolifération aberrante des lymphocytes B de la zone marginale de la rate. Cette sur-prolifération entraîne chez les patients une splénomégalie, une cytopénie, une thrombocytose et dans 15% des cas, une manifestation auto-immune. A ce jour, il n’existe aucun traitement spécifique. Des études basées sur les analyses mutationnelles sur les patients ont permis de mettre en évidence une mutation spécifique et récurrente dans 25% des cas, au niveau de la voie de signalisation NOTCH2. Cette mutation est une mutation qui tronque le domaine PEST, indispensable pour la dégradation du domaine intracellulaire de NOTCH2 et donc à l’arrêt de celle-ci. Ainsi, cette mutation somatique gain-de-fonction entraîne une sur-activation de l’activité de NOTCH2 dans les lymphocytes B de la zone marginale de la rate. Les mécanismes moléculaires induits par l’activation de la voie NOTCH2 dans la pathogenèse ne sont pas clairs. Par conséquent, identifier les gènes cibles directs de NOTCH2 pourrait permettre de mieux comprendre les mécanismes moléculaires induits par NOTCH2 et donc permettrait l’établissement d’une thérapie ciblée pour traiter ces patients mutés de la voie NOTCH2. Tout au long de ma thèse, j’ai cherché à identifier les gènes cibles directs de la voie de NOTCH2 induits dans ce type de lymphome B. Dans un premier temps, j’ai caractérisé une lignée cellulaire SMZL : Ri-1. Puis, afin d’identifier les changements transcriptionnels induits par NOTCH2, j’ai effectué un séquençage d’ARN (RNA-seq) sur trois conditions différentes. Ces données nous ont permis d’identifier l’oncogène MYC comme étant potentiellement un gène cible direct de NOTCH2. A côté de cela, afin d’identifier les facteurs épigénétiques associés aux oncogènes, nous avons effectué un crible de shRNA. Nous avons mis en évidence une répression significative de l’expression de MYC dans ces cellules. Afin de confirmer ces résultats et d’identifier le rôle fonctionnel de MYC dans ces cellules, j’ai inhibé l’expression de MYC à l’aide de shRNA. Ces données sont cohérentes avec les résultats du crible, lorsque MYC est inhibé dans ces cellules, cela entraîne une mort cellulaire. Ainsi, nous avons conclu que MYC est requis pour la prolifération et la croissance des cellules cancéreuses. J’ai par la suite, effectué une expérience de complémentation fonctionnelle. J’ai forcé l’expression endogène de MYC grâce à la technologie du CRISPRa dans les conditions où l’activité de NOTCH2 est inhibée. Nous avons mis en évidence une restauration de la survie cellulaire lorsque MYC est exprimé dans les conditions où la voie NOTCH2 est inhibée. Ainsi, cette étude nous a permis de démontrer que l’induction de MYC est essentielle à prolifération, à la croissance et à la survie des cellules cancéreuses. De plus, identifier MYC comme étant un gène cible direct de NOTCH2, nous permet de mieux comprendre les mécanismes moléculaires induits dans la pathogenèse de celui-ciSplenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a indoldent B-cell neoplasm lymphoma involving the spleen and bone marrow that affects mostly old people (65 yo). SMZL patients manifest a splenomegaly and a cytopenia. In 15% of the case, autoimmune manifestations are found. Studies based on mutational analysis have highlighted a specific and recurrent mutation in 25% of the case in NOTCH2 signaling pathway. This mutation truncates the PEST domain, which is crucial for NOTCH2 intracellular domain degradation, and so the activation arrest. Hence this somatic gain-of-function mutation leads to an over-activation of NOTCH2 signaling in SMZL. Molecular mechanisms induced by NOTCH2 in the pathogenesis remains unclear. Therefore, identifying NOTCH2 direct target genes may allow establishment of targeted therapies to treat SMZL patients mutated in NOTCH2 signaling. All along my PhD study, I aimed to identify NOTCH2 direct target genes induced in SMZL. First, I characterized Ri-1 cell line as a relevant cell model for my study. Then, to identify transcriptional changes induced by NOTCH2 in SMZL, RNA-seq was performed. From these data, among genes that were significantly re-expressed, I identified the oncogene MYC as a potential NOTCH2 direct target gene. Beside, to probe epigenetic factors associated with oncogenes, ShRNA screen was performed. We have highlighted that MYC expression was significantly repressed. To confirm these data, MYC depletion was done using ShMYC. These data are consistent with the shRNA screen data. When MYC expression is repressed, there is a significant decrease of cell proliferation and growth. To validate these data, an MYC-independent NOTCH2 expression was endogenously induced using CRISPRa technology in the condition where NOTCH2 activity is inhibited. We have demonstrated that MYC –independent NOTCH2 expression restores cancer cell survival when NOTCH2 activity is repressed. Hence, in this study, I showed that MYC expression is required for cell growth, cell proliferation and cell survival. Moreover, identifying MYC as a potential NOTCH2 direct target gene allows a better understanding of molecular mechanisms induced in SMZL pathogenesis

Texto completoResumen
Dans les trois ouvrages étudiés Estrella Distante (1996), La pista de hielo (1993) et Amberes (2002) nous révélons la présence, parfois patente, parfois latente, du mythe de la malédiction. Notre étude rend compte d’une lecture à la lumière du mythe littéraire moderne de l’écrivain maudit. L’évolution de l’œuvre de Bolaño, montre que depuis le début le mythe de la malédiction lutte pour prendre une place centrale dans son œuvre.Un seul motif reste constant, inamovible, dans les trois romans en particulier et dans l’œuvre entière en général : l’héroïsme. Nous voyons dans cette valeur inaltérable du mythe de l’écrivain maudit chez Bolaño, le cœur de son éthique littéraire. L’héroïsme du poète maudit n’est pas associé à l’idée romantique d’une mission personnelle fondamentale mais plutôt à la valeur d’incorruptibilité. Les deux mythèmes PURETE-DETRESSE suscitent les deux motifs mythiques INGENUITE-MARGINALITE. Ceux deux motifs, filtrés par le temps et l’écriture conduisent à l’HEROISME et à l’INCORRUPTIBILITE, valeur qui définit le poète maudit dans l’ensemble de l’œuvre.La réécriture de ce mythe n’est pas sans conséquences dans l’univers de la réception. Bolaño se crée dans ses textes une image de lui-même qui prospère ensuite dans l’inconscient collectif ; son image devient l’archétype de l’écrivain latino-américain contemporain. La nouveauté de l’œuvre de Bolaño est d’avoir su placer la figure du poète maudit au cœur de son univers littéraire. Comme il est courant dans la reprise d’un mythe par un écrivain, Bolaño vise par sa réécriture un modèle à vocation universelle, sans que pour autant sa vie soit l’original ou la copie de ce modèle. L’image archétypale de l’homme Roberto Bolaño repose sur un univers symbolique de représentations qui ont un lien intime avec la malédiction.Bolaño insiste sur une autre forme de malheur, la rébellion, la révolte du maudit. Elle a été l’une des premières abordée dans la réception de son œuvre, et traduite comme une tendance antisystème. Bolaño est donc perçu comme un provocateur net, chose qui est absolument vraie. Cependant, c’est à travers la figure du maudit que la révolte littéraire s’effectue vraiment. En s’attaquant aux institutions littéraires, le poète renonce à l’appui institutionnel et déclare conquérir son indépendance à l’égard des pouvoirs littéraires. Pour chercher à être indépendant des pouvoirs littéraires il faut nécessairement en être d’abord dépendant ! Si le poète-type de Bolaño n’écrit presque pas, ou du moins pas comme il devrait le faire en tant qu’écrivain, de quelle sorte d’indépendance littéraire est-il question ? Cela pose un problème de fond celui de la vie comme œuvre (ce fut le cas pour le dandysme), et comme œuvre littéraire. Si la vie peut devenir littérature et si l’existence peut se changer en œuvre d’art, c’est à cette transformation que le poète bolanien se donne corps et âme. Faire de sa vie un objet littéraire est donc la tâche curieuse et très originale que s’impose le poète maudit chez Bolaño.En réécrivant le mythe du poète maudit, Bolaño a ouvert la voix à une nouvelle manière de voir la littérature et d’en faire. Ce mythe, bien connu en Europe depuis Villon jusqu’à Houellebecq, a été ravivé dans l’œuvre de Bolaño, en même temps qu’il a été introduit dans l’imaginaire de la littérature hispano-américaine, pour devenir aujourd’hui un symbole à double effet : consommation de masse d’une icône ou chemin offert au public vers le sens caché de l’expressionWithin the three books studied Estrella Distante (1996), La pista de hielo (1993) et Amberes (2002) we show the underlying- evident presence, of the literary malediction myth. We read Bolaño’s works lightened by the literary modern myth of the damned poet. The evolution of Bolaño’s work reflects, since the beginning the central space this modern myth takes into his imaginary. One of the unchangeable topics in the three novels studied is heroism. This inalterable value of his damned characters represents the central part Bolaño’s literary ethics. The damned poet heroism in this case is not associated to the romantic idea of a personal fundamental mission to be accomplished but rather to the moral value of incorruptibility. We can find two mythic topics PURITY-DISTRESS that produce the mythic patterns INGENUITY-MARGINALITY. The presence of this two patterns lead towards the two moral-ethic values that define Bolaño’s damned poet: HEROISM and INCORRUPTIBILITY.The process of rewriting this myth brings consequences in the reception’s world. Bolaño invents through his literature an image of himself which lives in the collective subconscious. This image is nothing different than archetype of what should be the contemporary Latin-American writer. As it is current in the process or rewriting of a myth, Bolaño aims a figure to universal vocation (archetype), but not with the purpose of making of his personal life the original and of his damned poet the copy. For the community of readers, the archetypal image of the man (Roberto Bolaño) rest upon a symbolic universe of representations directly connected with literary malediction.Bolaño insists on another way of curse; the rebellion of the damned poet. This feature has been translated in the context of the reception as an anti-system tendency. Bolaño is perceived as an agitator. Nevertheless, this feature of the writer comes from the literary rebellion of his characters. The damned poet of his work attacks the literary institutions renounces to the institutional support and declares the conquest of his independence in front of the literary powers.In order to become independent of the literary institutions, the poet must be necessarily dependent of them. As we know the character of the poet in Bolaño’s work do not really write or rather barely writes. So we ask what kind of literary independence is sought by the poet? This question introduce the idea of life a piece of art, (dandyism) and more exactly in this case; life as a literary piece of art. If life can become literature and existence can be transformed in a piece of art, Bolaño’s damned poet does not seek any more than fulfill this possibility of mutation. Make of his life a literary (ethic, moral and esthetic) object is the curious and original task the damned poet force himself on.Throughout the rewriting of the damned poet myth, Bolaño lights the way to an original way of perceiving but above all an original way of making literature. The myth of the damned poet, well know from Villon to Houellebecq, has been brighten up in Bolaño’s work and reintroduce in the Hispano-American literary imaginary. This version of the myth has become today a symbol that can be read in two ways: consummation product of an image or opened possibility of a secret meaning

Texto completoResumen
This dissertation is a study of contemporary Pashto prose writing in a context of war and crisis based on a corpus of digitally published and/or printed short stories from the 1990s onwards. Out of this larger corpus, 16 stories have been selected and analysed under four topics: "The Terrorist", Female agency: Representations of and by, "The Madman", and Axtar: Longing for peace or imaging disillusion. A central idea is that the analysis should be text-oriented, but the contextualisation of the analysed texts is a secondary important focus. Chapter one presents the material and gives a general context to the study. In the second chapter, after a general conceptualisation of the short story genre, I discuss the borders between prose and poetry. In chapter three I provide an overview of Pashto literature where the aim is to pinpoint certain characteristics of literature in what I call a poeticised community, such as that of the Pashtuns. The fourth chapter contains an introduction to the four topics mentioned above, a summary of each of the four stories belonging to the specific topic with selected parts in direct translation from the Pashto original, as well as a discussion of form and contents of each topic separately. Chapter five consists of a general conclusion. An appendix with the original Pashto text of translated sections is found before the bibliography. One feature that has emerged from this study is the notion of how the narratives are often found to communicate and respond to their immediate surroundings, in time as well as in space. Another important conclusion is that devices normally regarded as belonging to the realm of poetry are not uncommon in Pashto short story writing.

Texto completoResumen
Mechanical ventilators are devices in critical care to assist breathing in case of expiratory dysfunction. The expiratory valve is a critical component to the ventilator as it controls the pressure in the patient’s lungs. The design process of a new expiratory valve assembly is a time consuming one due to the wide range of possible design solutions both the voice-coil actuators and membrane valves typically used in ventilators. This thesis evaluates the possibility of creating and using analytical models for model based development to speed up the early design phases of a expiratory valve assembly. The main components, voice-coil actuator and membrane valve are modelled separately and experimentally verified. A complete expiratory system model and hardware-in-the-loop test setup are constructed in order to explore how well can the dynamic properties and control performance of valve assembly be predicted. Finally various questions in the valve assembly design are explored and a new design is proposed to demonstrate the capabilities of the model based approach. The resulting voice-coil and membrane valve models can be considered accurate enough for fast exploration of the design space, as an error rate below 10% is reached without manual tuning for each design.Mekaniska ventilatorer är en utrustning inom intensivvården för assisterad andning för patienter med nedsatt andningsförmåga. Utandningsventilen är en kritisk komponent till ventilatorn då den kontrollerar lungtrycket hos patienten. Design processen för en ny utandningsventil är en tidskrävande process mycket på grund av den mängd olika design möjligheter som kan utforskas för både talspole aktuatorn samt membran ventilen som oftast används i ventilatorerna. I detta examensarbete utforskades möjligheterna till att skapa och använda analytiska modeller för modellbaserad utveckling för att accelerera de tidiga design stadierna för en utandningsventil. Huvudkomponenterna, talspole aktuatorn och membran ventilen är modellerade separat och experimentellt verifierade. En fullständig modell för hela utandningssystemet samt en hardware-in-the-loop test plattform är konstruerad för att utforska hur väl de dynamiska egenskaperna samt kontroll prestandan för en utandningsventil kan prediceras. Slutligen utforskas diverse frågor angående ventil designen och en ny design föreslås för att demonstrera möjligheterna med en modellbaserad metod. Den slutliga modellen för både talspole aktuatorn och membran ventilen kan betraktas som tillräcklig precisa för snabb utforskning inom de olika design möjligheterna, då en felprocent under 10% är uppnådd utan manuell finjustering för varje design.

Texto completoResumen
Bibliography: leaves 100-108.This thesis is in search of voices from the margin in biblical hermeneutics. Firstly, biblical hermeneutics in the third world (Korea and South Africa) is marginalized by European biblical hermeneutics. However, their biblical hermeneutics plays significant roles in a political and cultural context in the name of the same God. Therefore, from a historical viewpoint, this thesis compares and analyses ’contextualized biblical hermeneutics’ in Korea and South Africa. in the process, this thesis reveals that their voices have significance. From a cultural aspect, Koreans’ unique Christian religious practices, which were characterized by ‘early-morning prayers’, ‘audible prayers’ and ‘rice contribution’, induced Christianity to be transformed into Korean Christianity. Similarly, Africans interpreted the Bible without losing their traditional cultural assets such as ‘ancestor worship’, ‘polygamy’, ‘music & dance‘, and ‘healing’. Furthermore, they developed and transformed Christianity into the African Christianity through their own agencies, AIC (African indigenous Churches). On the other hand, from a political aspect, whether Europeans (Afrikaners) or black South Africans; whether Japanese or Koreans; whether oppressors or oppressed, the Bible was the object of political interpretation for strengthening Bible readers’ political power in each context. in other words, Bible reading was contextualized given political context of each Bible reader. if Bible reading was important to Europeans, so it was also vital to Koreans and South Africans. This is because the Bible has been interpreted on the basis of Bible readers’ context in history, whether in European, Korean or South African cultural and political contexts. On this ground, there is no reason why Korean and South African biblical hermeneutics should be disregarded by European biblical hermeneutics. In the name of Korean Christianity or South African Christianity, they must have their voices. Secondly, biblical hermeneutics of Jehovah's Witnesses (JWs)' is marginalized in the name of heresy by Christendom, which includes mainline churches in Europe, South Africa and Korea. However, their biblical hermeneutics plays important roles in unifying people of different contexts on the basis of the same Bible. Therefore, this thesis reveals the significance of their ‘decontextualized biblical hermeneutics’ through exemplary biblical interpretations. In the process, their voices have significance. From a cultural aspect, JWs' missionaries arrived comparatively later than mainline church missionaries. Accordingly, they did not have to get through cultural conflicts between traditional cultural norms and biblical norms. On this ground, their biblical interpretation could be applied in a global dimension, which reveals a sur-cultural aspect. In particular, their ‘house-to-house preaching work’ and ‘abstaining from blood transfusion’ are their representative religious practices, whether in Korea or South Africa. From a political aspect, .JWs have not participated in wars, military service or military training. Therefore, they have been persecuted by governments and military authorities. Worse still, they have been branded as heretics by Christendom. Nonetheless, on the basis of ‘decontextualized biblical hermeneutics’, this thesis puts an emphasis on various biblical reasons why they consistently have rejected and continue to reject military service. Central theme of their Bible reading is based on God's Kingdom beyond their political and cultural context. Nonetheless, this theme of God's Kingdom provides JWs with great strength, with which they are able to live in global unity. On this stance, they did not take part in the past tragic political history, whether in Korea or South Africa. Lastly, even though diverse and pluralistic biblical interpretation was a threat rather than a productive challenge to church authority, this thesis reveals that a dichotomous category could be the first step in reading the Bible for contemporary Bible readers in the name of ‘contextualized and decontextualized biblical hermeneutics.’

Texto completoResumen
Dans cette thèse, nous examinons les liens entre commerce international et développement économique à travers le concept de marge extensive du commerce. L'on considère comme participant à la croissance de cette marge, l’apparition de nouveaux flux de commerce, qu’ils concernent la commercialisation d’un bien jusqu’ici non échangé ou la commercialisation de produits déjà échangés mais entre des pays n’en faisant pas le commerce auparavant. Les trois chapitres de cette thèse constituent l'une des premières tentatives d'analyse de ces questions se concentrant sur la situation des pays en développement. Ils contribuent ainsi à une meilleure compréhension des liens entre hétérogénéité des entreprises, croissance de la marge extensive du commerce, et développement. En outre, ce travail permet de mettre plus clairement en évidence le rôle des réglementations et des institutions nationales dans la performance commerciale des pays en développement. Le premier chapitre montre que la diversification des exportations en termes du nombre de produits exportés est fonction des coûts de l’échange et des coûts d’établissement d’entreprise dans le pays exportateur. Le chapitre 2 élargit ces résultats en montrant que ces facteurs comptent, également, dans la diversification géographique des exportations. Enfin, le troisième chapitre aborde ces questions par une approche contraire, en étudiant l’impact des normes techniques d’un pays importateur sur la diversification des exportations de ses partenaires. Ces trois chapitres se basent sur des modèles théoriques prenant en compte l’hétérogénéité des entreprises qui justifient les travaux empiriques entreprisThis dissertation examines the links between international trade and economic development through the lens of export growth at the extensive margin. By extensive margin growth is meant either trade in previously untraded products, or trade in existing products between new country pairs. The three chapters of this dissertation represent some of the first contributions to the literature in this area with an approach anchored in development policy concerns. They contribute to a clearer understanding of the links between firm heterogeneity, extensive margin growth, and development. In addition, they provide new insights into the importance of domestic regulations and institutions in terms of developing country trade performance. Chapter one shows that diversification in the product dimension is influenced by the costs and trade and market entry in the exporting country. Chapter two shows that similar factors also affect diversification in the geographical dimension. Chapter three takes the opposite approach, showing that product standards in importing countries can affect export diversification overseas. All three chapters use trade models incorporating heterogeneous firms to motivate the empirical work undertaken

Texto completoResumen
En Tunisie, l'extraction d'huile d'olives génère d'énormes quantités de sous-produits oléicoles : les grignons d'olives et les margines. De ce fait, la valorisation de ces sous-produits par deux voies (thermique et physicochimique) a été réalisée. Le premier volet concerne une nouvelle alternative qui consiste à utiliser les margines en mélange avec une matrice solide pour constituer un combustible de biomasse. La sciure et les grignons d'olives (GO) ont été choisis comme matrice d'absorption à moindre coût. Lors des essais de combustion, le bilan de carbone augmente avec l'augmentation de température, accompagné d'une augmentation du monoxyde de carbone et des composés organiques volatils. Toutefois, il a été mis en évidence la nécessité de travailler avec un temps de séjour plus élevé pour minimiser l'émission des imbrûlés. Ce procédé d'imprégnation est une technique prometteuse de réduction des impacts environnementaux de margines. Le mélange GO/margines ayant un taux d'imprégnation ≤ à 28% a montré un comportement similaire à ceux des grignons d'olives sous inerte et sous air. L'utilisation de ce mélange GO/margines semble être une solution pour la Tunisie puisque la ressource est présente et permettra d'augmenter les rendements des exploitations. Quant à la valorisation physicochimique des grignons d'olives, elle a été dédiée à l'étude de l'adsorption du nickel et du cuivre. L'étude de piégeage de ces métaux dans les cendres a révélé que le nickel et le cuivre se volatilisent peu ou ne se volatilisent pas. Ces métaux sont très faiblement solubles par lixiviation des cendres. En conséquence, le transfert vers l'atmosphère et l'environnement est alors inexistant ou minimal.

O caso de estudo é o Vale da Montanha em Marvila, tendo sido este o escolhido principalmente por ser, do ponto de vista negativo, um exemplo de descontinuidade, fragmentação e vazio urbano, cujas margens contam uma história inacabada. Através da caracterização pretende-se identificar os principais problemas e descobrir as suas potencialidades, a fim de elaborar uma proposta que vise a reabilitação do local.
ABSTRACT: The present work deals with the urban margin as a resolution for interconnection and connectivity in a deprived area of the city, namely how the elaboration of an urban park serves as a tool for interconnection and connectivity in the city. It is intended to analyze the various concepts that in their designations serve as instruments for solving the urban margin, which in turn are adequate for the interconnection and connectivity of the city. Thus, the development of these themes is sought, placing the urban park as a key element of the strategy to be proposed in order to solve the urban margin of the site, provoking the continuity that the city of Lisbon needs, but preserving the identity and values that are associated. The case study is the Mountain Valley in Marvila, and this was chosen mainly because it is, from the negative point of view, an example of discontinuity, fragmentation and urban void, whose banks tell an unfinished story. Through the characterization it is intended to identify the main problems and discover their potentialities, in order to elaborate a proposal that aims at the rehabilitation of the place.

In this study, the voice samples of 22 fin whales, each of 200 ms duration, are analyzed using the Hilbert-Huang transform (HHT) method. Four classes were defined, based on the energy ratio of the first intrinsic mode function (IMF) to the refereed total energy of the fin whale voice samples: Class I corresponded to the refereed total energy of the fin whale voice samples greater than 90%; Class II for the refereed total energy of the fin whale voice samples in the range of 80% to 90%; Class III, when it is in the range of 70% to 80%, and Class IV, when it is in the range of 50% to 60%. The number of voice samples in Class I, II, III, and IV were eight, five, five, and four, respectively. The average energy distribution of several IMFs and residual function (RF) signals for the voice samples in each class were investigated. In addition, the average instantaneous frequency (IF) and marginalization frequency (MF) of several IMFs and the RF signals for all the voice samples were determined. An analysis of the results of this study, could lead to a better understanding of the energy-frequency features of several IMFs and the RF signal for the voice samples of fin whales.

Texto completoResumen
The argument of this thesis is for a theology of Catholic charismatic
testimony to be understood as prophetic voice. In so doing, this thesis
contributes towards an increased understanding of the ecclesial
contribution made by otherwise marginal voices to the progress of
Catholic Tradition. It does so by identifying the prophetic voice of
charismatic testimony in terms of four themes: incarnation, appeal to
origins, rupture and continuity and poietic imagination. These are
identified as characteristics of charismatic testimony
This thesis responds first to the gap identified between what the Church
teaches of the contribution of ordinary believers to Tradition, and the
lived reality of those involved in Catholic Charismatic Renewal, in
England. Second, it identifies in charismatic testimony a form of
communicating faith as story that has not yet been studied in the
Catholic context, in terms of how it functions theologically and is also
expressive of charismatic gifting.
To meet this deficit, this thesis explores testimonies of persons involved
in Catholic Charismatic Renewal, bringing them as examples of ordinary
theological discourse, into conversation with ecclesial and academic
discourse. Testimonies were collected through semi-structured
interviews of a non-random sample. An inter-disciplinary approach has
been adopted whereby the testimonies have been examined as personal
faith stories, and in terms of the Pentecost story. This has been done to
connect and contextualise the ordinary discourse of contemporary
charismatics with the ecclesial discourse of Scripture and Church
teaching, especially that of certain texts from the Second Vatican
Council. Theological explorations of Scripture, charismatic experience,
Tradition and reception, prophecy and voices from the margins, have
informed this thesis.

As a female teacher who comes from a labor family, my personality has been molded by the lack of the resources and financial support and which makes me to value any chance of self-upgrading. Education is the sole solution to free myself from such predicament. When I was student I did my best to reach the outstanding result to gain the best education resource. After past various exams and took qualified teacher training, I have got an admirable career – a teacher which reach my parents’ eager anticipation. Critical pedagogy the initiation of education allows me to review my past teaching experiences. The action research of narrative inquiry reconstructs my understanding of education. Through the construct of narrative inquire, I figure out that the needs to be confirmed is the main reason of making my life distressed. The fear of being edge out of the system, draw close to the power is a huge barrier for educators to nestle up to their students. And it also makes a very difficult time of me to separate between the reason and my feelings. While trying to match up the system of educational institution for becoming a model educator, the overruled of religion and the pathologize has made me become marginalized. The demonization of mental disorder even deepens my fear of becoming an out cast . I have acknowledged that there is no ideal teaching model base on my past failure experience of education practice. Now I stop molding myself for the social norm, learning to accept myself, admitting the limited abilities, giving up to control student’s attempt and trying to become a teacher who can relish the virtue of students. The narrative inquire transforms my educational practice. However the hardly changeable teaching model is still stable and unchanged because of inveteracy. Thus the narrative praxis will be an endless process of transform, resist, and inquire.

Texto completoResumen
This thesis seeks to offer an explicitly political reading of E.M. Forster's fiction, focusing on three of his novels (A Room with a View, Howards End and Maurice) and two of his short stories ("The Life to Come" and "The Other Boat"). Throughout I have used a combination of close reading techniques and elements of critical theory to show how Forster's fiction is characterised by a prolonged and ongoing analysis of the political notion of the intersection of mainstream and marginal cultures. In this regard, I argue that the majority of Forster's novels and short stories are concerned
with issues surrounding characters who are somehow marginalised from mainstream power structures and who then have to rebel against the cultural centre in their personal quests for political autonomy. It is this cultural issue, I argue, that gives Forster's novels and short stories their thematic unity and continuity. In probing this theme, I hope to move beyond restrictive (and often reductive) liberal humanist styles
of criticism, which tend to downplay the political implications of Forster's fiction by fore grounding only the metaphysical questions posed by his writing.
However, this thesis is also informed by certain deconstructive theoretical
concepts, which I have loosely drawn upon in tracing the development of this theme. In particular, I argue throughout that the oppositional quality of the novels and short stories identified by the liberal humanist critics is only truly evident in the early novels, such as A Room with a View. In the later novels, I argue, it is evident that Forster had significantly re-evaluated his understanding of the relationship between the dominant culture and its dissident, subordinate subcultural strands, and that he had begun to conceive of the interaction between the two in a vastly more fluid and
pluralistic manner than has been acknowledged by earlier critics. In particular, Forster seems to apprehend in the later works the manner in which a subject can be simultaneously both at the centre and the margins of hislher respective cultural system. It is for this reason that I stress that Forster sees the relationship between mainstream and marginal cultures as an intersection rather than an opposition. I also stress throughout this thesis the fact that the mainstream/marginal theme extends beyond issues raised in the novels and short stories and includes the author himself. As a male homosexual living in a sexually repressive society, Forster was
himself a marginalised member of society, and this cultural positioning must therefore be seen to infonn the themes raised in his writings. However, as a middle-class male, Forster was himself also an empowered subject, and his writing thus also reflects his own complicity in the power structures he was seeking to subvert. This is particularly evident when one considers the recurrent misogyny his novels and short stories display. In addition, Forster's particular historical positioning as an early twentieth
century writer means that his novels resonate with several of the non-literary discourses so prominent in the period, such as feminism and sexology. It is when one considers the manner in which the novels actively engage with these non-literary discourses that the considerable political invective of Forster's writing becomes apparent.
In the light of the issues outlined above, I interpret Forster's novels as an
attempt on the author's part to vocalise the feelings, hopes and aspirations of those groups somehow marginalised from the dominant culture.Thesis (M.A.) - University of Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2002.

This paper demonstrates how labor voice and capital regulation jointly determine the bank’s optimal interest margin decision. Our theoretical model is based on a regime giving corporate governance power to current labor and then labor’s objective is equivalent to minimizing the equity value of the put option. Our model show that an increase in the labor voice in corporate governance decreases the bank’s optimal interest margin in the put-option valuation when the bank realizes a relatively less risky state of the world. Labor shouldn’t interfere with bank’s strategy. However, our model also shows that an increase in the capital-to-deposits ratio increases the bank’s optimal interest margin when the bank realizes a relatively more risky state. Enhancing capital regulation can achieve finance stable.

The purpose of this study was to centre the voices of older lesbians about
their lived experience. Within the discourse of gerontology, the existence of older
lesbians is invisible. Older lesbian existence is also marginalized within the
lesbian community. Institutionalized heterosexism, homophobia, sexism and
ageism, counter to the Social Work Code of Ethics, serve to enforce that
invisibility and marginalization in the dominant Canadian culture. In order to
provide some information on this marginalized group, four lesbians over the age
of 55 were interviewed individually by a lesbian researcher. An exploratory,
emancipatory, feminist qualitative research methodology elicited an informationrich
discourse. The four women's stories were organized into their individual
stories, and were translated into eleven themes, as follows: (1) heterosexism and
homophobia, (2) ageism, (3) financial concerns, (4) housing and senior-serving
institutions, (5) health problems, (6) vulnerability to crime and abuse, (7)
isolation, (8) sexuality, (9) grief and loss, (10) organized religion, and (11)
feelings about the lesbian community. The women in this study spoke eloquently
about the issues that affect them and other older lesbians. The lived experience
of the participants challenges social work's policies, practices, education and
research to become inclusive of older lesbians.

This research responds to the need to fill the void in terms of studies and scholarships on female
rappers from Portugal and Brazil. Addressing issues such as racism, patriarchy, male hegemony and
the silencing or underestimation of women’s contributions to the building and evolution of rap both
in Portugal and Brazil, the aim is to offer a space where these issues can be discussed, while also
acknowledging and understanding the works and experience of female performers. In addition to this,
the present work aims at discussing the social, cultural and politcal importance of hip hop as a
marginal, yet global, contemporary practice and its evolution into a mass-mediatic culture. Hip hop’s
contribution to the building of new individual and collective identities, its unapologetic narratives
and revolutionary messages are here understood as tools that contribute to the understanding of the
dynamics that agitate the social and creative realities of today’s post-modern and post-colonial world.
Through a methodological approach that looks at interdisciplinarity as its main feature, this work
borrows its core ideas from fields such as Cultural Studies, Hip Hop Studies, Gender Studies,
Feminist Theory, among many others, as well as from the informal conversations that I have been
recording throughout these years with Portuguese rappers Capicua, Telma TVon, Mynda Guevara,
and Brazilian rappers Samantha Muleka, Rose MC, Keli Rosa and Sharylaine. Despite the fact some
interviews did not make it to this final text, they were all fundamental to it.Esta pesquisa responde à necessidade de preencher o vazio em termos de estudos e investigações sobre rappers femininas desde Portugal e Brasil. Abordando questões como o racismo, o patriarcado, a hegemonia masculina e o silenciamento ou menosprezo das contribuições dadas por mulheres na construção e evolução da cultura hip hop, quer em Portugal, quer no Brasil, o objetivo é de criar aqui um espaço onde estas questões sejam discutidas, ao passo que são compreendidos e reconhecidos os trabalhos e as experiências dessas intérpretes femininas. adicionalmente, a presente investigação visa debater a relevância social, política e cultural da cultura hip hop como prática marginal, e ainda assim global. As contribuições dadas pelo hip hop à construção de novas identidades individuais e coletivas, as suas narrativas não apologéticas e as suas mensagens revolucionárias são aqui interpretados como ferramentas que ajudam a entender as dinâmicas que agitam as realidades sociais e criativas do atual mundo pós-moderno e pós-colonial. Através duma abordagem metodológica que olha para a interdisciplinaridade como a sua principal característica, as ideias centrais a este trabalho inspiramse a campos como os Estudos Culturais, a Sociologia, os Estudos de Hip Hop, os Estudos de Género, a Teoria Feminista, dentro de muitos outros, assim como às conversas informais gravadas ao longo destes anos com as rappers portuguesas Capicua, Telma TVon e Mynda Guevara e as rappers brasileiras Samantha Muleka, Rose MC, Keli Rosa e Sharylaine. Apesar de que algumas gravações não chegaram a ser incluídas neste texto, todas foram fundamentais para a sua construção.

Social exclusion is the restriction of participation in one’s community; it is the denial of access to rights, services, dignity and respect. Youth who are homeless experience social exclusion on numerous fronts, as they are marginal to the social, economic and civil worlds of Canadian society. This dissertation is a qualitative, participatory project on youth homelessness that prioritizes voice by employing a “methods from the margins” approach (Kirby & McKenna, 1989). During this project I worked with youth who have experienced homelessness (ages 16-25), first in focus groups (n=13) and, then, through interviews (n=30), to explore their views on topics connected to social exclusion. The youth guided the topics that I explored, which I connected to the features of social exclusion outlined by Silver and Miller (2003). Results of this study highlight that youth who are homeless do not describe their experiences in terms of social exclusion. The results of this work question the homogeneity of experiences of the youth in the age bracket of 16-25, and review findings through three specific age categories of youth being “not yet adults,” “new adults” and “adults.” My findings indicate that youth who experience homelessness perceive themselves to be more independent and mature than youth who have not experienced homelessness, questioning dominant constructions of both “youth” and “homelessness.” Youth respondents also mentioned a number of other difficulties they experienced because of homelessness, including discrimination and limited opportunities for education and conventional employment and access to housing. This highlights the multidimensionality of social exclusion. At various points in the thesis I discuss youths’ views on rights and social citizenship, pointing to the impacts of limited rights and social safeguards in a neo-liberal state. Recommendations are made for reducing the social exclusion of youth who experience homelessness through “housing-first” approaches to addressing homelessness.

Texto completoResumen
As 'visible minorities', physically active Indo-Canadian girls are misrepresented, marginalized and
rendered 'invisible' by the dominant society. There is no Canadian literature to address such
misrepresentations or to challenge the stereotypes that continue to label Indo-Canadian girls as
passive, frail, tradition bound, submissive and victimized (Razack, 1995; Jiwani, 1992a,b, 1996).
Such popular stereotypes are reified within the sport and education system (Lovell 1991;
Hargreaves 1994; Razack 1995), falsely distorting Indo-Canadian girls' interests in sport.
The purpose of this study was to explore and understand how Indo-Canadian girls interpret their
experiences of physical education in separate and public school systems. Research questions
included: What are their sport and physical activity experiences in grade 10 and 11? What are
their perceptions of gender and race in their varied experiences? Do the various school settings
make a difference?
What was lacking in the Canadian literature was an adequate analysis of gender, race and sport
that includes Indo-Canadian girls and women. Although some British researchers have made
significant contributions, others tended to adopt a cultural deficit approach (Hoover, 1990;
Stanley, 1995) which 'blames' Indian culture and the family for girls' participation rates without
addressing the impact of institutionalized racism and sexism (Raval, 1989). The issue of co-ed
versus segregated physical education classes is an ongoing debate which rarely discusses the fact
that girls are not a homogeneous group or that the 'traditional' Eurocentric, male defined norms,
standards and conditions of sport settings continue to be perpetuated. Issues of voice, silence and
representation were also central to this study
The research methodology employed hermeneutic interpretation and five ethnographic techniques
which included observations, focus group interviews, one-on-one semi-focused interviews,
document analysis and field notes. This study included three schools in the Lower Mainland, a
private Sikh Punjabi school and two public schools. Following observations and focus groups with
grade 10 girls at the private school, 4 girls were subsequently selected for further in-depth
interviews and observations in grade 11 at the public schools. This study illuminated the importance of voice, silence, representation, gender, race and physical
activity. What was most surprising in this study was that the girls' voices concentrated *
significantly on the male referent point, the white referent point, and the impact of male domination
in their experiences of sport, even though the majority of their experiences were in segregated PE
classes rather than co-ed classes.
The major contributions of this study include: the importance of understanding the nuances and
interpretations of silence; the problems of sport settings which continue to be biased and
exclusionary; the importance of debunking the cultural deficit model and generalizing stereotypes
about Indo-Canadian girls, families and cultures, and; how gender and race are integrated and
interlocking so that they cannot be analyzed as separate variables.
This study recommends that the experiences of Indo-Canadian girls be contextualized within the
dynamic and coexisting influences of peers, families and culture, teachers and curriculum, and
systems and structures. It also recommends that we pay more attention to how we know rather
than primarily to what we know (Razack, 1993).
