Visto que as transformações culturais decorrem de mudanças na base material e vice versa, esta é resultado das complexas relações sociais, aparecendo como um momento importante e necessário de articulação e de afirmação da sociedade. Assim, a noção de neutralidade cultural não pode mais ser sustentada, é preciso levar em consideração o uso que lhe é dado. Ao manipular as necessidades através de interesses adquiridos, a sociedade industrial impede o surgimento de uma oposição eficaz ao todo, pois se configura em um sistema de dominação, um universo político com um projeto histórico específico. Desta forma, o objetivo principal deste trabalho é compreender o jovem da periferia urbana, que vive a cidade de forma restrita e desigual, ressaltando os rebatimentos da crise atual do capital e da indústria cultural na organização política dos mesmos, que tem seu cotidiano cada vez mais escasso e suas possibilidades restritas, assim como seu potencial questionador.
Since the cultural transformations emerge from changes in the material basis and vice versa, this paper is the result of complex social relations, appearing as an important and necessary moment of articulation and affirmation of society. Thus, the cultural notion of neutrality can no longer be sustained, it's necessary to take the use that's given to it into account. By manipulating the needs through acquired interests, the industrial society prevents the emergence of an effective opposition to all, because the industrial society is configured as a domination system, a political universe with a specific historical project. So, the main goal of this work is to comprehend the urban periphery juvenile, who lives the city in a restricted and unequal way, highlighting the repercussions about the current crisis of capital and the cultural industry in the political organization of those youths whose daily time's been scarcer and their possibilities have been restricted, as well as their questioning potential.

Повний текст джерелаThis thesis is grounded in the national debate on collective memory, focusing particularly on the Polish-Jewish relationships before, during and immediately after the World War II. The researcher utilises popular novels and press accounts to analyse the changes within writing on the Holocaust as well as public’s reception of these texts in the beginning of the 21st Century. The reflection on the topic is presented in three stages which are underpinned by interdisciplinary approach and mixed-methods analysis to arrive at the common ground of the definition of discourse. Therefore, the aim of the first section is to present and describe the cultural context in which the body of literature to be analysed is embedded. The main areas of interest of this discussion are the depletion of national myths and the emergence of new narration about the past. Leading on from this reflection, the second section examines la mise en scène of Holocaust in the literature, evaluating it from the perspective of genre. This analysis is supported with in-depth research into public reception of the discussed body of literature in national press. Finally, the third section focuses on the perspective of the discourse. Particular expressions used in the analysed novels are classified according to their stance on the subject of Holocaust, i.e. whether they were voiced by witnesses or victims. These are then categorised into the amalgamated enunciative units which consequently disclose the strategic application of discourse

Повний текст джерелаThis research, led between 2011 and 2019, focuses on the place of culture in the different way of government in Douala, regarding the study of the patrimonial issues. On the scale of the city, various actors – institutionalized or not – continually reinvest the concept of heritage. Their views, their actions, their patrimonial demands participate in the city development and refer to “traditional” re-readings urban renovation strategies. The “process of heritage” and the “process of putting art in public spaces” liberate speech, in a city where every kind of material or symbolic representation of memory has long been forbidden by the State. Those initiatives imply to negotiate for the occupation of space, possibly referring to conceal urban history. I look into the process of construction of heritage through the various actors operating, as well as its effects on the production of urban space. The study of different projects, also in their coordination or competition, shows power and government relationships in the city. Through culture, the assertion of memory, and thus of legitimacy, some actors offset the economical and the political power in Douala in order to position themselves in the urban space. My research reiterates the issue of developing a discourse on art, and its stakes, in an authoritarian political context, regarding the influence of the various actors involved in the city development. My thesis proposes a qualitative approach: interviews with public authorities, local elites, actors from the associative sector, artists and citizens, as well as observation on the field. To make a concrete analytical study, I refer to images and movies, collaboratively produced with numerous groups of artists. This research is divided into three parts. First, the place of heritage in the successive development plans. I present a state of the art and emphasize the opening of the notion definition standards. It allows me to go back on the place of heritage in the development policies and decisions, by analyzing the existing studies and heritage plans. The second part deals with the place of culture in the power relationships in the city and the assertion of groups called “autochthonous” in the urban space, through the use of heritage. This includes linking heritage, history and memory in the context of Douala. Finally, I refer to the role of subordinate actors, their place in the art world, as well as their ability to participate to the city development. I pose a broader issue of the production of culture in the neoliberal and authoritarian context of Douala, by offering to study off-site initiatives, and questioning their future

"Exploring englishnesses through representations found in contemporary english comedies set in the educational context = Identidades inglesas a través de representaciones contemporáneas en comedias televisivas basadas en el contexto educativo." Doctoral thesis, Universidad de Murcia, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10803/336092.
Повний текст джерелаIn this thesis I aim to study the concept of Englishness(es), which will imply a better understanding of the idea of ‘English identities’ and their evolution. Thus, I shall analyse what possible similarities and differences can be found between the contemporary idea of ‘English identity/ies’ as presented in contemporary English comedies and its/their definition according to some academic works, and how they interrelate. For this I propose to study English culture in depth, focusing mainly on contemporary English comedies set within the educational context. My starting point will be Raymond William’s concept of culture as a whole way of life (Williams, 1958/2011), which later influenced Stuart Hall (Hall, 1992) and the Birmingham Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies. Therefore, I shall focus my study from the perspective of the tradition of Cultural Studies as developed in Britain. Comedies will provide an ideal tool to focus on characters’ habits, customs, needs, likes and dislikes to give samples, albeit exaggerated at times, of how individuals relate to each other and express their fears, interests, worries and passions. In the last few centuries Great Britain has been witness to important changes in its population. A large number of immigrants of different races, countries, beliefs and cultures have converged on British soil. This has resulted in the existence of many different ways of life that have interacted with the host culture, with the different cultures adapting and modifying one another. In line with this, there has been a growing interest in the delimitation, definition and assertion of both Britishness and Englishness, although my study in centred on the latter. For this reason there exists a lot of controversy and divergence in the definition of this concept. Different studies focus on different aspects of England, and as a result they come up with different versions of Englishness. Englishness is not seen throughout this study as something simple or even something that can easily be described. Aspects such as differences of class, sex, sexuality, race, religion, accent, region, including the simple fact of belonging to a given club or not, are determining factors in the perception and formation of contemporary English identities. All these things are intertwined to give a new, heterogeneous notion of Englishness that rejects the stereotypical idea of Englishness associated with a white, protestant and Anglo Saxon individual. In this way, my ultimate aim is that of carrying out a profound analysis of some academic works on the matter, and compare these images with those presented by contemporary twenty-first century television comedy, in order to try and reach a better understanding of today’s multicultural Britain. In agreement with the nature of the study, I plan to draw on diverse sources of information. Literature, cinema, television, the world wide web and the press will be the main sources, which will provide a wider and more up to date view of the experiences of Englishness in Britain. I shall put special emphasis on English comedy because, it seems to me, that it reflects a great many experiences, interests and forms of representation and interpretation of culture. In my opinion, it constitutes an effective tool to study the social reality of the community, which on the other hand has not been exploited for this purpose. In doing so, I will focus on comedies set within the educational system, given that I believe these will reveal a great deal about the English and their sense of identity, as I will explain in the following section. Therefore, I will be looking at comedies set within secondary education schools, namely those of Bromwell High, The Inbetweeners, Teachers and some scenes of Little Britain, together with the comedy series Fresh Meat, which is set in a university.

Therefore the study will investigate how the idea of distinctness is made public and by means of spatial analyses, how and to what extent the assertion of distinctness is achieved or constituted a genuine position within the academic or professional architectural culture will be investigated while such concepts as &ldquo

Повний текст джерелаThe scenario of contemporary culture includes different elements, at the same time root and product of the complexity of the globalized neoliberal social fabric, woven in a transitional temporal-paradigmatic context. Reign, among others: the incessant operationalization of a culture of emergency through the capitalist instrumental rationality, volatility, individualism, fragmentation, heightened competition, aimless rampant consumerism, social violence, psychological violence (visible and invisible) and worship of high performance. This scenario can exert significant influence in the organizations\' scope, in the Organizational Culture of the institutions/workspace and workers\' mental health. The overall purpose of the research focuses on identifying characteristics of contemporary culture, especially of Psychological Violence in Organizational Culture, described in Brazilian scientific journals from 2002 to 2012, referring to Administration, Psychology and Multidisciplinary areas. To achieve the study, qualitative research with methodological strategy of content analysis was elected, taking the articles in the scientific journals as content. Data collection was performed in 2013 through Web of Science databases, INDEXPsi, SciELO and Portal de Periódicos Capes. The descriptors used, in different combinations and their corresponding Portuguese, were: organizational culture, organizational behavior, psychological violence, and psychological violence at workplace. After reading the titles, abstracts and keywords, 35 articles were selected: Web of Science (n=2), INDEXPsi (n=21), SciELO (n=10) and Portal de Periódicos Capes (n=2). Previously defined criteria of inclusion/exclusion were applied and a 18-article sample was obtained. The primary data (scientific papers) were partitioned into three corpora: 1- Psychology corpus (n=9); 2-Administration corpus (n=2) and 3-Multidisciplinar corpus (n=7). Each corpus was prepared, as required, in order to process the standard analyses of Alceste software. Content analysis was performed after processed material. For the Psychology area, the results point that the articles reveal trend to the ideological theorization of the psychological violence issue in the workplace. Regarding the Administration area, the data indicate the functionalist nature of the studies, in the direction of seeking to know the phenomenon of psychological violence at work in order to weaken it through instrumental-managerial strategies of the organizational culture. The Multidisciplinary area operates to denounce the occurrence of the phenomenon. The merge of three areas analysis exposes a functionalist doing in the researches, in a broad sense, with no indication of overcoming the immediate evidences gotten from the research that enables a qualitative leap to new propositions to Science, indicating the reified trait of the approach to psychological violence phenomenon at work

Thesis, 1999. https://figshare.com/articles/thesis/Subjectivity_and_its_discontents_Theories_of_subjectivity_and_contemporary_cultural_contexts/21433626.
Повний текст джерелаThis thesis aims to examine the notion of subjectivity in terms of the theories posed by specific schools of thought, particularly with regard to the notion of resistance within the contexts of contemporary culture. It will be concerned primarily with the theories of Jacques Lacan, Michel Foucault, Judith Butler, Donna Haraway, Pierre Bourdieu and Michel de Certeau, as well as the contributions made by Theodor Adorno and Walter Benjamin.
The thesis begins with a discussion of theories which consider subjectivity as a narrative of commoditisation that sets up the potential for both violence and resistance. These theories include Lacanian psychoanalysis, Foucault's notion of power as production and prohibition, Bourdieu's theory of habitus and Butler's notion of performativity, all of which highlight the central issues of commoditisation and contingency as subjectivity's inherent anxiety or 'discontents'. The notion of the cyborg, a primary symptom of this anxiety in postcolonial times, is central to the project's argument of a recursive subjectivising process which must necessarily involve violence, if it is to provide any possibility for emancipation. The thesis goes on to examine the processes of contemporary cultural commoditisation in relation to the hegemonies cultivated by technology and the culture industry, using specific texts from the popular culture genres of science-fiction film and manga.
