Soldiers And Stereotypes: Mountaineers, Cultural Identity, And World War Ii, C. Belmont Keeney

Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports (ETD)

To what extent are Appalachian stereotypes true and how much is pure fabrication? This study seeks to answer this question by examining the experiences of West Virginia soldiers during World War II. Appalachian hillbillies, believed to be culturally backward, uncivilized, isolated, and prone to violence, were often sent straight to the infantry because it was believed that their wild mountain heritage made them inherently better fighters. Using interviews, letters, and a collection of over 1,200 firsthand written accounts of Appalachian veterans collected by West Virginia University in 1946, this study traces the evolution of the cultural and individual identities of …

The Limits Of Advocacy, Amanda Frost

Duke Law Journal

Party control over case presentation is regularly cited as a defining characteristic of the American adversarial system. Accordingly, American judges are strongly discouraged from engaging in so-called "issue creation"-that is, raising legal claims and arguments that the parties have overlooked or ignored-on the ground that doing so is antithetical to an adversarial legal culture that values litigant autonomy and prohibits agenda setting by judges. And yet, despite the rhetoric, federal judges regularly inject new legal issues into ongoing cases. Landmark Supreme Court decisions such as Erie Railroad Co. v. Tompkins and Mapp v. Ohio were decided on grounds never raised …

Playwriting In Three Major Nigerian Languages, Isaiah Ilo

CLCWeb: Comparative Literature and Culture

In his article, "Playwriting in Three Major Nigerian Languages" Isaiah Ilo analyzes the frequency of playwriting in Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba, the three major Nigerian languages, which together hold about a half of the country's estimated population of 140 million. Ilo uses a case study to contrast the importance of the languages, their evolution as literary languages, and their official status with a role in education. Ilo locates the significance of these factors next to an inventory of the plays and a listing of the writers to demonstrate the neglect of the mother tongue by experienced Nigerian dramatists. The study …

Occasionally, the volume and/or issue numbering is irregular.

Bridging The Gap Between Brand Strategy And Customer Experience In Services: The Target Experience Tool, Simon Clatworthy

ServDes Conference Series

This paper describes work in progress for the development of a structured process that helps crossfunctional development teams to bridge the gap between a company's brand strategy and experiences for customers. The process is aimed to assist and structure the very early stages of the service development process; the fuzzy front end. Further; it describes a tool that has been developed that can be used to assist this transformation; by scoping the 'target experience' for a proposed service. The tool uses role-playing; using professional actors to improvise upon key experience words such that behaviours and customer experiences are explored. The …

Visualtiles: Communication Tools For (Service) Design, Chiara Diana, Elena Pacenti, Roberta Tassi

ServDes Conference Series

Taking into account the importance of visualization within service design discipline due both to the limited visual appearance of services and to the heterogeneous group of figures involved in their conception and construction; this research paper proposes an investigation of the representation paths that could help the comprehension and use of visualization during the design process (1). This research topic has been studied from a design perspective and from a design culture background; in order to provide a contribution to the service discipline in the broad sense. The analysis of the representations in terms of level of iconicity (abstract vs. …

Service Design Leadership, Judith Gloppen

ServDes Conference Series

The service sector is now the dominant part of many western economies – and seems to be growing in importance. To differentiate their offerings; service providers need to be innovative to meet conscious and unconscious user needs. The innovation process to improve and redesign the way organizations deliver services demands collaboration from multiple sources; of which two are competence in design and in strategic leadership. The variety of services offered in the market raises cross-functional internal and external service leadership issues. How businesses understand and organize design activities can have a profound impact on the innovation process and outcome. Organizational …

Participative, Co-Operative, Emancipatory: From Participatory Design To Service Design, Stefan Holmlid

ServDes Conference Series

In the discourse of service design; terms such as platforms; transformation and co-creation have become part of what seems to be an emergent lingua franca. In the participatory design discourse; and the surrounding design traditions; related terms and ideas were developed. The development of the discourse of participatory design; during the last three decades of the 20th century; influence the way we understand the provisions for and possibilities of service design. The analysis is performed along three themes collected from the development of participatory design; and examples of how the legacy of participatory design has been appropriated are given. We …

Co-Creating Solutions - Combining Service Design And Change Laboratory, Juha Kronqvist, Korhonen Satu-Mari

ServDes Conference Series

This paper is an introduction and reflection of a method integration project in a service development context. In the project; two complementary methods were used to co-create new service offerings and improve the work activity in a ferry line restaurant. The research aim was to test the integration of two different development methods; service design and the Change Laboratory. The assumption behind the work was that new service development requires methods for both creating new concepts and for successfully implementing them in the organization. By combining these methods; the project was able to expand the scope of service design from …
