Culture, Sovereignty, And Hollywood: Unesco And The Future Of Trade In Cultural Products, Christopher M. Bruner Feb 2007

Culture, Sovereignty, And Hollywood: Unesco And The Future Of Trade In Cultural Products, Christopher M. Bruner

ExpressO

On October 20, 2005, the General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) adopted a treaty – by a vote of 148-2, with 4 abstentions – that legitimates domestic legal measures aimed at the protection of local producers of "cultural activities, goods and services." Opposed by the United States and Israel, the Convention represents a major diplomatic victory for Canada and France – its principal proponents – and a major blow to Hollywood and the United States, audiovisual products being among America's most lucrative exports. Both Canada and France, like many countries around the world, have …


Evidence For Universality In Phenomenological Emotion Response System Coherence, David Matsumoto, John B. Nezlek, Birgit Koopmann-Holm Feb 2007

Evidence For Universality In Phenomenological Emotion Response System Coherence, David Matsumoto, John B. Nezlek, Birgit Koopmann-Holm

Psychology

The authors reanalyzed data from Scherer and Wallbott's (Scherer, 1997b; Scherer & Wallbott, 1994) International Study of Emotion Antecedents and Reactions to examine how phenomenological reports of emotional experience, expression, and physiological sensations were related to each other within cultures and to determine if these relationships were moderated by cultural differences, which were operationally defined using Hofstede's (2001) typology. Multilevel random coefficient modeling analyses produced several findings of note. First, the vast majority of the variance in ratings was within countries (i.e., at the individual level); a much smaller proportion of the total variance was between countries. Second, there were …

Perceived Cultural Importance And Actual Self-Importance Of Values In Cultural Identification, Ching Wan, Chi-Yue Chiu, Kim-Pong Tam, Sau-Lai Lee, Ivy Yee-Man Lau, Siqing Peng Feb 2007

Perceived Cultural Importance And Actual Self-Importance Of Values In Cultural Identification, Ching Wan, Chi-Yue Chiu, Kim-Pong Tam, Sau-Lai Lee, Ivy Yee-Man Lau, Siqing Peng

Research Collection School of Social Sciences

Cross-cultural psychologists assume that core cultural values define to a large extent what a culture is. Typically, core values are identified through an actual self-importance approach, in which core values are those that members of the culture as a group strongly endorse. In this article, the authors propose a perceived cultural importance approach to identifying core values, in which core values are values that members of the culture as a group generally believe to be important in the culture. In 5 studies, the authors examine the utility of the perceived cultural importance approach. Results consistently showed that, compared with values …


Re-Configuring The Apollo Missions: Lunar Photography, Battlefield And Wilderness, Feargal Fitzpatrick Feb 2007

Re-Configuring The Apollo Missions: Lunar Photography, Battlefield And Wilderness, Feargal Fitzpatrick

Masters

This thesis is a critical analysis of Full Moon-Apollo Mission Photographs of the Lunar Landscape by Michael Light. It demythologises the Apollo missions as they are presented in this collection of images. Through an examination of the critical and historical conditions underpinning the construction of the viewing subject in modernity, with particular reference to photographic images, this thesis identifies and analyses what is at stake and how the transaction that is looking and interpreting is negotiated. Light’s exhibition (also published in book form) is the product of his intervention (1996- 1999) in the photographic archive holding 32,000 images from NASA’s …

Cyberqueers In Taiwan: Locating Histories Of The Margins, Terri He Feb 2007

Cyberqueers In Taiwan: Locating Histories Of The Margins, Terri He

Journal of International Women's Studies

In this paper I direct the focus to lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) online communities in Taiwan. On the one hand, I argue that such online communities in Taiwan are worthwhile researching and deserve special academic attention because they touch upon Taiwan’s perpetual difference in the world as a de-facto, thereby questioning how a transnational perspective permanently influences or even changes the way national identity is or is not formulated. On the other, against the backdrop of globalisation, I highlight the fact of under-theorisation of issues and politics of sexuality dissidence in a non-western, non-dominant location and culture such …


Feminism And The Politics Of Representation: Towards A Critical And Ethical Encounter With “Others”, Amy Hinterberger Feb 2007

Feminism And The Politics Of Representation: Towards A Critical And Ethical Encounter With “Others”, Amy Hinterberger

Journal of International Women's Studies

This essay begins from the position that a speaking subject in feminism occupies a place of power and authority which requires a commitment to an ethical involvement in the representation of ‘others.’ Specifically, this essay will address feminist concerns of speaking for others and the concerns raised by the dangers of representing across differences of race, sexuality, gender and cultures. First, it will critique feminist claims to political effectivity as a solution to ethical representation. Second, it will look at how hierarchies of oppression and privileged ontological positions are inconsistently represented in feminist discussions. Lastly, it will briefly examine how …


Journalists In Feminist Clothing: Men And Women Reporting Afghan Women During Operation Enduring Freedom, 2001, Corinne Fowler Feb 2007

Journalists In Feminist Clothing: Men And Women Reporting Afghan Women During Operation Enduring Freedom, 2001, Corinne Fowler

Journal of International Women's Studies

The following discussion is based on an extensive survey of UK mainstream television news reports broadcast between September and December 2001 during the military attacks on Afghanistan, known as Operation Enduring Freedom. Also conducted was a survey of British radio and print media published and produced within the specified period. I argue that the 2001 news media coverage of Afghanistan was an important precursor to current debates about Muslim women in Europe and the United States since it highlights many of the contradictions and hypocrisies housed within western public discourses on women’s rights. Detailing numerous examples, I contend that the …

Beyond Liberal Democracy: Dewey's Renascent Liberalism, Barbara J. Thayer-Bacon Jan 2007

Beyond Liberal Democracy: Dewey's Renascent Liberalism, Barbara J. Thayer-Bacon

Education and Culture

My project aims to develop a relational, pluralistic political theory that moves us beyond liberal democracy, and to consider how such a theory translates into our public school settings. In this essay I argue that Dewey offers us possibilities for moving beyond one key assumption of classical liberalism, individualism, with his theory of social transaction. I focus my discussion for this paper on Dewey’s renascent liberal democracy. I move from a discussion of Dewey’s liberal democratic theory to what a relational, pluralistic democratic theory might look like, with Dewey’s help.

Hacia Una Ciudadanía Mediática En La Era De La Información, Lorena Frankenberg Jan 2007

Hacia Una Ciudadanía Mediática En La Era De La Información, Lorena Frankenberg

Global Media Journal México

Algunos académicos de los estudios culturales promueven redirigir la noción de ciudadanía hacía un espectro de ciudadanía cultural que implica armonizar la identidad, los rasgos de tradición religiosa, de organización social, las raíces artísticas y las expresiones sentimentales. En este contexto, no se puede pasar por alto la dupla: medios de comunicación-construcción de la identidad ciudadana. La subjetividad implícita en el proceso identitario dentro de la esfera privada y que surge con la experiencia mediática, conforma una nueva forma de ser ciudadanos. Entonces, la ciudadanía mediática deviene del complejo ensamble de medios que emplea cada individuo y que motiva la …
