Spatiality And Temporality In Communication Theories, Diana Iulia Nastasia Feb 2011

Spatiality And Temporality In Communication Theories, Diana Iulia Nastasia

Theses and Dissertations

This dissertation has been planned and written as an extended review of literature on space and time within and outside of communication studies, and as a thorough categorization of issues about spatiality and temporality that have been and might be employed outside of and within communication studies. This dissertation has been envisioned and conceived as a critical look at both theories that consider space and time as unproblematic, that reify an ideal-typical perspective of time and an absolute-universal perspective of space, and theories that problematize space and time, that challenge the settled and predominant view of spatiality and temporality. The …

A Museum In A Book: Analyzing Culture Through Decolonizing Arts-Based Methodologies, Sharon Verner Chappell, Drew Chappell Feb 2011

A Museum In A Book: Analyzing Culture Through Decolonizing Arts-Based Methodologies, Sharon Verner Chappell, Drew Chappell

Theatre Faculty Articles and Research

This paper explores the positivist, museum-based, and touristic constructions of indigenous cultures in the Americas, as represented in the DK Eyewitness series, and then overturns these constructions using an artist book created by the authors. In our analysis of the nonfiction series, we identified three trajectories: cataloguing, consignment to the past, and pleasurable display. Using techniques borrowed from "new historiography" and the decolonizing methodologies of Linda Tuhiwai Smith (1999), we suggest ways in which adults and young people might "speak back" to these positivist paradigms.


Intergenerational Transfer Of Human Capital Among Immigrant Families, Kelsey Hample Feb 2011

Intergenerational Transfer Of Human Capital Among Immigrant Families, Kelsey Hample

Undergraduate Economic Review

While immigrants in the United States tend to earn less than comparable natives, their children close the earnings gap. The purpose of this study is to determine how differences in intergenerational transfer of human capital between immigrant families and native families affect different earning outcomes for respondents of each group. Specifically, this study uses a human capital framework to analyze both the direct effect of parental education on respondent earnings and the indirect effect on earnings by first affecting respondent education, which in turn affects respondent earnings. Data from the 1979 National Longitudinal Survey of Youth allows background variables within …

This is the Wooster Voice from February of 2011. The front page of this edition of the newspaper includes a large article about a snow day.

Because of the extensive focus on IS, students are hardly able to focus on post-Wooster plans (i.e. grad school, …

Productivity Spillovers From Foreign Mnes On Domestic Manufacturing Firms: Is Co-Location Always A Plus?, Sergio Mariotti, Marco Mutinelli, Marcella Nicolini, Lucia Piscitello Feb 2011

Productivity Spillovers From Foreign Mnes On Domestic Manufacturing Firms: Is Co-Location Always A Plus?, Sergio Mariotti, Marco Mutinelli, Marcella Nicolini, Lucia Piscitello

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

The paper analyses productivity spillovers from foreign MNEs on domestic manufacturing firms. Using a database on foreign MNEs in Italy, our results reveal that local firms do benefit from the presence of foreign MNEs, and the effect is higher when local and foreign firms in manufacturing sectors are co-located. However, spillovers benefiting domestic firms are likely to be less influenced by co-location when foreign MNEs are in services sectors as the latter are different from manufacturing industries under a number of aspects that overcome the effect of distance. Indeed, in these sectors, proximity and interaction are often obtained through professional …


The Fight Against Geography: Malaria And Economic Development In Italian Regions, Marco Percoco Feb 2011

The Fight Against Geography: Malaria And Economic Development In Italian Regions, Marco Percoco

Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei Working Papers

Geography has long been considered as a fundamental prerequisite for economic development and growth. In recent years, a growing number of papers have considered the role of physical geography as a determinant of regional growth and development by considering it as a source of “intrinsic advantage”. Malaria is considered to be strictly related to poverty and its geographically-related origin is now widely recognized, i.e. it is endemic only in certain areas of the globe whose environmental and climatic characteristics are ideal for the proliferation of mosquitoes which are the vector for the transmission of the disease. The World Health Organization …

Walking Next To Our Shoes…, Office Of Arts + Cultural Programming, Peak Performances At Montclair State University

2010-2011 PEAK Explores the Answer: Experiments in Arts & Technology

Does Ladysmith Black Mambazo send chills up your spine? Paul Simon’s album Graceland brought South Africa’s musical roots to Western pop culture. And it was Athol Fugard who exposed its dramatic wisdom. Now comes another South African auteur taking the pulse of her country’s complex social reality. Robyn Orlin is known for work that can be subversive, outrageous, provocatively humorous, and visually arresting. From her early days as a choreographer during the Apartheid era, Orlin has made a career of confronting taboo subjects with a heightened, vaudevillian theatricality that aims to test and redefine ideas about South African performance.
