Idealized Images In Magazine Advertising And Their Effect On Male Body Satisfaction, Amy L. Baird
Idealized Images In Magazine Advertising And Their Effect On Male Body Satisfaction, Amy L. Baird
Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects
Advertisements in the media have been scrutinized because of their continuous stereotypical depictions of unrealistic or idealized pictures of people (Richins, 1991). This scrutiny is based on the view that consumers will see these idealized images in the media and either consciously or unconsciously compare themselves to these images. In particular, it is suggested that thin and beautiful female models in advertisements have created dissatisfaction among women in relation to their bodies, a situation that may result in unhealthy practices such as eating disorders. This idea that idealized images in advertisements create body dissatisfaction has been widely examined in female …

Lost Christianities: The Battles For Scripture And The Faiths We Never Knew [Review Of The Book Lost Christianities: The Battles For Scripture And The Faiths We Never Knew By B. D. Ehrman], Rubén R. Dupertuis
Religion Faculty Research
This book is an introduction to the basic content of non-canonical early Christian texts, exploring them both as evidence for the diversity of early Christianity and for what they can say about the formation of the New Testament canon. It is divided into three sections. The first uses the concept of forgery to introduce a number of important extra-canonical texts (including Gospel of Peter, the Acts of Paul and Thecla, the Coptic Gospel of Thomas, and the Secret Gospel of Mark). The second section takes a closer look at some of the different forms of Christianity …

Law And Order In Cyberspace: A Case Study Of Cyberspace Governance In Hong Kong, 23 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 249 (2005), Kam C. Wong, Georgiana Wong
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
Hong Kong, an international finance center, has been enjoying great benefits generated by computer-mediated communication ("CMC") in the new Information Age. On the other hand with the rapid and advanced development in technology, Hong Kong's economy is increasingly and irreversibly relying, and made dependent upon CMC and the Internet to operate, because the Internet has become a catalyst of reform and development in other arenas including social, cultural, and public policy. The Information Age raises new criminality concerns as it aggregates traditional criminal problems since great amounts of data are transmitted by and stored on computers is beyond imagination and …

UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
As with most innovations that have world-altering capabilities, the Internet is not without its very own dark side. This Internet's ugly side represented by are the thousands of Web sites devoted to the procurement and dissemination of pornographic material. Although, undoubtedly, in a free society, people are entitled to have access to such material if they so desire it is also generally accepted there is not only a great need, but an uncompromisable duty to protect minors from, and prevent access to, this potentially harmful imagery. This Comment discusses the several recent attempts made by Congress to regulate the accessibility …

The Failure Of The Rule Of Law In Cyberspace?: Reorienting The Normative Debate On Borders And Territorial Sovereignty, 24 J. Marshall J. Computer & Info. L. 1 (2005), H. Brian Holland
UIC John Marshall Journal of Information Technology & Privacy Law
The purpose of this article is to suggest a different perspective on the issue of extraterritorial regulation in cyberspace. The article begins by outlining the Johnson-Post-Goldsmith debate which addressed the significance and legitimacy of physical, geographically-defined borders and territorial sovereignty in the regulation of cyberspace. The debate focused primarily on two areas of disagreement: First, whether and to what extent the architecture of the Internet is borderless or boundary-destroying, so as to be resistant to regulatory regimes grounded in territorial authority; and second, whether and to what extent a nation may legitimately exercise its regulatory power extraterritorially, particularly in the …
Restoring The Rule Of Law: Reflections On Fixing The Immigration System And Exploring Failed Policy Choices, Katherine L. Vaughns
Restoring The Rule Of Law: Reflections On Fixing The Immigration System And Exploring Failed Policy Choices, Katherine L. Vaughns
University of Maryland Law Journal of Race, Religion, Gender and Class
This paper reflects on issues surrounding the current debate about immigration reform, and explores failed policy choices over the past twenty years. It sets the stage first by providing a historical perspective, and noting how the events of 9/11 have inexorably changed the rhetoric and tone of the political and policy debates over immigration. It speculates about legislative choices and governmental inaction that have impeded past reform efforts and/or contributed to the current situation, thus undermining the rule of law; and observes that the undocumented immigrant population working and residing in this country today, which some lawmakers have labeled lawbreakers, …

The Promise And Threat Of Nanotechnology: Can Environmental Ethics Guide Us?, Christopher J. Preston
The Promise And Threat Of Nanotechnology: Can Environmental Ethics Guide Us?, Christopher J. Preston
Philosophy Faculty Publications
The growing presence of the products of nanotechnology in the public domain raises a number of ethical questions. This paper considers whether existing environmental ethics can provide some guidance on these questions. After a brief discussion of the appropriateness of an environmental ethics framework for the task at hand, the paper identifies a representative environmental ethic and uses it to evaluate four salient issues that emerge from nanotechnology. The discussion is intended both to give an initial theoretical take on nanotechnology from the perspective of environmental ethics and to provide a clear indication of the direction from which environmental resistance …

Eliminating The Fear Factor : Fostering An Environment Of Equality For Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual And Transgender People In Schools, Lana L. Hollar
Graduate Research Papers
The United States of America has been listed as one of the most violent places in the world to live. For gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender individuals, the dangers of violence are even greater and are perpetuated by fear and ignorance. GLBT individuals are victims of oppression in the forms of torture, rejection, stigma, social pressure, isolation, and murder. In an attempt to understand why this oppression takes place, this paper will examine the nature of the oppression and how society is responsible for the continuation of it. With understanding, maybe fear can be eliminated and an environment of equality …

An Examination Of The Relationship Between Coverage On Chinese And Group Perception Of Chinese Immigrants, Shuang Liu, Guo-Ming Chen
Communication Studies Faculty Publications
This study employed survey and content analysis to examine the relationship between newspaper coverage on Chinese and the group perception of Chinese immigrants. Content analysis was performed on 842 articles from four Australian newspapers where Chinese were the major actors in order to form a picture of the representation of the Chinese people. Then a survey was conducted to 265 respondents who were of Chinese origin but currently living in Australia to measure their perception of Chinese ethnic groups. Results from content analysis indicated that Chinese actors, in general, were portrayed in four major roles: leaders, victims, ordinary citizens, and …

Horton The Elephant Is A Criminal: Using Dr. Seuss To Teach Social Process, Conflict, And Labeling Theory, Angela D. Crews
Horton The Elephant Is A Criminal: Using Dr. Seuss To Teach Social Process, Conflict, And Labeling Theory, Angela D. Crews
Criminal Justice Faculty Research
It is fairly well known that Theodor Geisel (“Dr. Seuss”) often used art and storytelling as political and social commentary, but no one has attempted to interpret his work through the lens of sociological/criminological theory. This paper argues that several of his tales can be used as aids in teaching the basic principles of many sociological/criminological theories. The author analyzes several of his works and uses one, Horton Hears a Who to illustrate his subtle but powerful commentary on the creation and application of laws, the impact of social stratification, the pervasive and dangerous influence of social and political power …
Commitment In Polyamorous Relationships, Elaine Cook
Commitment In Polyamorous Relationships, Elaine Cook
Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)
Polyamory, or having multiple loving, sexual relationships concurrently without deception or betrayal, has had little scholarly attention. This paper uses interviews with 7 long term polyamorous couples to explore the nature of a commitment that is not defined by sexual exclusivity. The author describes the nature of the relationships that respondents are involved in, their conceptualization of the nature of commitment, the ways that they maintain their primary bond, and the benefits of polyamory as perceived by the participants. The common elements leading to a successful primary relationship were mutual appreciation, emotional closeness, caring, honesty, good communication, and flexibility. The …
