A True War Story: Reality And Simulation In The American Literature And Film Of The Vietnam War, Alexis Turley Middleton Jul 2008

A True War Story: Reality And Simulation In The American Literature And Film Of The Vietnam War, Alexis Turley Middleton

Theses and Dissertations

The Vietnam War has become an important symbol and signifier in contemporary American culture and politics. The word "Vietnam" contains many meanings and narratives, including both the real events of the American War in Vietnam and the fictional representations of that war. Because we live in a reality that is composed of both lived experience and simulacra, defined by Baudrillard as a hyperreality, fiction and simulation are capable of representing particular realities. Vietnam was shaped by simulacra of Vietnam itself as well as simulacra of previous American conflicts, especially World War II; however, the hyperreality of Vietnam differed largely from …

Geographical Indications: A Discussion On The Trips Regulation After The Ministerial Conference Of Hong Kong, Stefania Fusco Jul 2008

Geographical Indications: A Discussion On The Trips Regulation After The Ministerial Conference Of Hong Kong, Stefania Fusco

Marquette Intellectual Property Law Review

Despite the strides the TRIPs Agreement made to protect Geographical Indications (GIs), considerable debate persists on how to further TRIPs' goals in that area. First, while some countries ally themselves with the European Union on maintaining a multilateral register for GIs, others follow the United States' preference for a voluntary database. Controversy also surrounds whether to extend the more expansive protections on wines and spirits to other products. Finally, the European Union has launched a staunchly opposed campaign to recover the exclusive use of a number of GIs, including many that have become generic names for their associated products. This …

Italy And Italians Through American Eyes, 1861-1881, Dennis M. Bench Jul 2008

Italy And Italians Through American Eyes, 1861-1881, Dennis M. Bench

History Theses & Dissertations

American perceptions of Italy and Italians between 1861 and 1881 were characterized by competing and conflicting images. These two decades in the late­ nineteenth century demonstrated the transitional nature of American attitudes towards Italians as contact between the two peoples increased. American travelers went to Italy initially to recreate the journeys of educated Europeans of the Grand Tours of the eighteenth century. By the 1860s this style of travel was on the decline to be replaced by traveling based on exploring the "real" Italy. However, the two styles overlapped and resulted in conflicting and complementary images. In part this was …

The Ngo-Ification Of The Anti-Trafficking Movement In The United States: A Case Study Of The Coalition To Abolish Slavery And Trafficking, Jennifer Lynne Musto Jun 2008

The Ngo-Ification Of The Anti-Trafficking Movement In The United States: A Case Study Of The Coalition To Abolish Slavery And Trafficking, Jennifer Lynne Musto

Wagadu: A Journal of Transnational Women's & Gender Studies

While NGOs proffer valuable services to trafficked persons, this paper maps how increased professionalization of the anti-trafficking movement in the U.S. has curtailed trafficked persons’ efforts to organize a movement that speaks to their experiences and needs. In order to highlight tensions and exclusionary practices that exist within the professionally centered U.S. anti-trafficking movement, I present one case study of a Los Angeles based NGO dedicated to providing social services and political advocacy to trafficked persons. By examining the micropolitics of advocacy work, this paper explores how funding pressures and ideological debates about prostitution have delimited trafficked persons’ ability to …
