The Understanding Of Romance In Audiences Of 50 Shades Of Grey, Beatriz Elena Inzunza-Acedo Jan 2015

The Understanding Of Romance In Audiences Of 50 Shades Of Grey, Beatriz Elena Inzunza-Acedo

Global Media Journal México

El éxito en taquilla de la primera película de la saga de 50 Sombras de Grey, fue un tema controversial en México debido a que expuso la sexualidad femenina desde una perspectiva liberal, en una sociedad considerada altamente conservadora por su influencia Católica. Este estudio presenta los resultados de 587 encuestas y cinco grupos de enfoque, cuyo objetivo fue el de conocer las representaciones sociales del romance en las audiencias regiomontanas, y su relación con lo que se presenta en la película. Los principales hallazgos arrojan que los participantes se identifican en su mayoría con los personajes (Christian Grey y …

The Domestication Of Terrorism: 9/11 And The War In Iraq In Newspapers From Montreal, Canada, Gabriela Gomez

Global Media Journal México

El trabajo presenta la domesticación del terrorismo en dos de los diarios más importantes de Montreal, Canadá: The Gazette (anglófono) y La Presse (francófono). A través del análisis de repertorios interpretativos mostramos cómo se domestica (se hace local) el terrorismo acontecido el 9/11 del 2001 y la Guerra en Irak (2003) en esos medios y cómo se articula al imaginario social. Esto nos permite explorar las apropiaciones culturales del terrorismo en dos grupos culturales, en una sociedad como la de Montreal. Palabras Clave: terrorismo, domesticación, The Gazette, La Presse, periódicos, Canadá, repertorios interpretativos. AbstractThis article analyzes the ‘domestication’ of terrorism …

Improving Substantive And Procedural Protections For Indigenous Rights In Redd+ Projects: Possible Lessons From Brazil, Kristen Taylor Jan 2015

Improving Substantive And Procedural Protections For Indigenous Rights In Redd+ Projects: Possible Lessons From Brazil, Kristen Taylor

Student Works

Nations around the world are beginning to acknowledge that climate change is an imminent threat to our planet and are responding with mitigation efforts. REDD+ (reducing emissions from deforestation and degradation plus) may be a way to minimize the deforestation that has lead to the increased greenhouse gas emissions causing a change in our global climate. Although REDD+ is one the leading proposals to address climate change, it lends itself to potentially harmful effects on indigenous people, if the regulating nation does not possess adequate policy for protections of their indigenous peoples. Indigenous peoples face the challenge of safeguarding access …


Big Storms, Big Debt, And Biggert-Waters: Navigating Florida's Uncertain Flood Insurance Future, Loren M. Vazquez Jan 2015

Big Storms, Big Debt, And Biggert-Waters: Navigating Florida's Uncertain Flood Insurance Future, Loren M. Vazquez

Student Works

The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) began with good intentions. It was first enacted for the purpose of making flood insurance reasonably affordable while protecting against losses after disasters. However,

Congress failed to accurately update the program in the face of climate change and new coastal development. Because of this oversight, the overall risk associated with the program outgrew the collection of premiums, which led to an enormous debt to be incurred by the federal government. Once changes did finally come, they led to massive increases in insurance rates and a massive public outrage. Residents of states like Florida faced …

A Multi-Scale Based Model For Composite Materials With Embedded Pzt Filaments For Energy Harvesting, A.E. El-Etriby, M.E. Abdel-Meguid, K.M. Shalan, Tarek Hatem, Yehia Bahei-El-Din Jan 2015

A Multi-Scale Based Model For Composite Materials With Embedded Pzt Filaments For Energy Harvesting, A.E. El-Etriby, M.E. Abdel-Meguid, K.M. Shalan, Tarek Hatem, Yehia Bahei-El-Din

Centre for Advanced Materials

Ambient vibrations are major source of wasted energy, exploiting properly such vibration can be converted to valuable energy and harvested to power up devices, i.e. electronic devices. Accordingly, energy harvesting using smart structures with active piezoelectric ceramics has gained wide interest over the past few years as a method for converting such wasted energy. This paper provides numerical and experimental analysis of piezoelectric fiber based composites for energy harvesting applications proposing a multi-scale modeling approach coupled with experimental verification. The multi-scale approach suggested predicting the behavior of piezoelectric fiber-based composites use micromechanical model based on Transformation Field Analysis (TFA) to …

Fantahistorical Vs. Fantafascist Epic: “Contemporary” Alternative Italian Colonial Histories, Simone Brioni Dr. Jan 2015

Fantahistorical Vs. Fantafascist Epic: “Contemporary” Alternative Italian Colonial Histories, Simone Brioni Dr.

Department of English Faculty Publications

This article focuses on Enrico Brizzi’s L’inattesa piega degli eventi [The Unexpected Turn of Events, 2008], La nostra guerra [Our War, 2009], and Lorenzo Pellegrini e le donne [Lorenzo Pellegrini and the Women, 2012], a trilogy of alternative history novels that imagines what would have happened to the Italian empire if Italy had not allied with Germany during the Second World War. Drawing on Giorgio Agamben’s reflections on contemporaneity (2009), I analyze how this trilogy represents Fascism and its colonial legacy in relation to the history of politics and soccer in Italy. I also compare Brizzi’s trilogy to Mario Farneti’s …


Save Our Schools Rally Chicago, March 17, 2013, Todd Alan Price Jan 2015

Save Our Schools Rally Chicago, March 17, 2013, Todd Alan Price

Faculty Publications

Using a video camera, I documented the historic Save our Schools Rally Chicago, March 27, 2013. Included was a march led by President Karen Lewis of the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU), interviews respectively of Reverend Jesse Jackson, a special education teacher-Diana, and a healthcare worker, and footage of community members performing civil disobedience. Perhaps most compelling are the voices of students—high school seniors— who spoke eloquently against school closings.
