The Problem Of Objectivity And The Artistic Conception Of The Participant Observer: Thoughts On Using Lacan’S Psychological Model Of Representation In The Documentation Of Creative Arts Practice As Research, Lindsay Vickery Jan 2004

The Problem Of Objectivity And The Artistic Conception Of The Participant Observer: Thoughts On Using Lacan’S Psychological Model Of Representation In The Documentation Of Creative Arts Practice As Research, Lindsay Vickery

Creative Connections Symposium @ BEAP2004 September 4, 2004

This paper discusses issues relating to suitability of the artist as a participant observer researcher. It considers the fitness of the artist as a dependable witness in the process of production of their work. The Lacanian concepts of Real/Imaginary /Symbolic (RIS) and the matrix of the four discourses are examined as a potential source of validation for the participant observer model. Comparisons between this approach and the ‘gold standard’ of scientific research are made.

Northern Lacandon Maya Medicinal Plant Use In The Communities Of Lacanja Chan Sayab And Nahá Chiapas, Mexico, Ryan A. Kashanipour, R. Jon Mcgee Jan 2004

Northern Lacandon Maya Medicinal Plant Use In The Communities Of Lacanja Chan Sayab And Nahá Chiapas, Mexico, Ryan A. Kashanipour, R. Jon Mcgee

Journal of Ecological Anthropology

The Lacandon Maya are rainforest farmers who inhabit the tropical jungles of southern Mexico and Guatemala. They number approximately 700 individuals and practice a traditional system of agriculture that incorporates introduced plants and the native flora of their environment. In this essay, we discuss a largely neglected aspect of Lacandon ethnomedicine. Our results include 47 medicinal plants used by the several Northern Lacandon living in the communities of Naha’ and Lacanja Chan Sayab. The plants are cultivated in three zones (house gardens, milpas, and secondary milpas) and wild plants are collected from the jungle. This method of healing exists amid …

The Semiotic Analysis Of Trademark Law, Barton C. Beebe Jan 2004

The Semiotic Analysis Of Trademark Law, Barton C. Beebe

Faculty Articles

Current thinking about trademark law is dominated by economic analysis, which views the law as a system of rules designed to promote informational efficiencies. Yet the economic analysis has failed to explain, because it is unequipped to do so, a number of concepts of fundamental importance in the law, most notably the concepts of trademark "distinctiveness" and trademark "dilution." This article proposes that a more robust understanding of trademark law may be achieved by viewing the law through the lens of semiotics, a systems-theoretical field of knowledge, of which structural linguistics forms a part, dedicated to the study of signs …

A Glance Into The Life Of A Computerized Generation: A Case Study On Thai Teenagers Living In Bangkok, Chulanee Thianthai Jan 2004

A Glance Into The Life Of A Computerized Generation: A Case Study On Thai Teenagers Living In Bangkok, Chulanee Thianthai

Manusya, Journal of Humanities

In this fast paced world, computer and internet use have automatically become an essential part of metropolitan life. It is easy for those who were born in the older generation to notice the impact of computers and internet on themselves, but what about this young generation of Thai teenagers who are growing up in a computerized generation? What computer-related behavioral aspects do these teenagers find to be unique for their generation? In seeking the answer to this question, this study aims to explore six different areas. Topics of discussion concern: (1) Thai teenagers define their computerized generation; (2) The computerized …

Burakugaku (Buraku Study): A Paradigm Shift For Education, Yoshikazu Kawamoto, Hidetada Shimizu Jan 2004

Burakugaku (Buraku Study): A Paradigm Shift For Education, Yoshikazu Kawamoto, Hidetada Shimizu

Mid-Western Educational Researcher

Burakumin, Japan’s largest minority group, have been discriminated against throughout Japanese history for engaging in jobs that were considered to be defiling, e.g., slaughterers, tanners, and undertakers. Specifically, burakumin played the social and occupational roles despised by the majority Japanese, but those without which the Japanese society as a whole could not maintain its viable function, i.e., actual and symbolic processes of recycling whereby those which are dead and polluted were transformed into living and holy. In recent years, however, some burakumin scholars have begun to recast their identities; instead of examining the problem of being burakumin (the deficit model), …

Colonization And The Rule Of Law: Comparing The Effectiveness Of Common Law And Civil Law Countries, Sandra F. Joireman Jan 2004

Colonization And The Rule Of Law: Comparing The Effectiveness Of Common Law And Civil Law Countries, Sandra F. Joireman

Political Science Faculty Publications

The rule of law is one of the most important components of any explanation of cross-national differences in economic well-being. But what leads to better rule of law in a country? Using an institutional approach this paper probes the effect of legal systems in influencing the rule of law. There has long been speculation that the countries adopting English common law are better at providing legal dispute resolution than those adopting the continental forms of civil law. That speculative assessment is found to be true only in those countries that have been colonized, further analysis demonstrates that it is the …


Retributive Justice: The Gacaca Process In Rwanda, Sandra F. Joireman, Allison Corey Jan 2004

Retributive Justice: The Gacaca Process In Rwanda, Sandra F. Joireman, Allison Corey

Political Science Faculty Publications

After decades of cycling violence between Hutu and Tutsi groups in Rwanda and Burundi, violence peaked in 1994 with a genocide of Tutsis in Rwanda, during which the Hutu majority slaughtered 800,000 Tutsi and moderate Hutus, leaving the country with 120,000 accused génocidaires awaiting trial. Rwanda's gacaca courts were established as a response to the backlog of untried genocide cases. These courts disturbingly distinguish between genocide and war crimes committed during the same era, trying only those accused of genocide. This article argues that the gacaca process will contribute to the insecurity of all Rwandan citizens in the future, since …
