Perception Of Profanity In Interpersonal Relationships, Ashley Pivaronas, Jessica Benham, Stephanie Melhaff
Colloquy Undergraduate Research Journal
Swearing is a form of language commonly used, yet its use is oftentimes viewed negatively in certain contexts (Johnson & Lewis, 2010). Swearing is an interesting form of expression because it is not a behavior typically taught or encouraged by authority figures (Thelwall, 2008). Hamilton (1989) emphasized the importance of examining the influence of perception of profanity usage by the receiver of the profanity, noting that perceived obscenity can differ from person to person. This study examined how gender and political orientation influence perception of profanity usage. Relationship to the user of the expletive, as well as the specific expletive …

Framing The 2012 Olympics: A Content Analysis Of International Newspaper Coverage Of Female Athletes, Jessica Giuggioli
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The present content analysis was designed to identify the representation of female athletes in the media during the 2012 London Olympics. Coders analyzed 617 mentions of male and female athletes in order to determine the quantity and quality of coverage during the 2012 Olympics. The research mostly supported previous literature concerning the depiction of female athletes in the media, as the study revealed an imbalance in the quantity and quality of coverage of male and female athletes in newspapers. The frequency of mentions of female athletes was lower than the frequency of mentions of male athletes. Furthermore, female athletes were …

Developing Standardized Language For Use In Lgbt Health Research, Vaibhav Jain, Marisa Workman, Sara Mostafa, Abigail Wolfe, Stefania Davia, Natalie Terens, Keith Li, Blaine Parrish
GW Research Days 2013
BACKGROUND: In the past two decades, the LGBT community in the United States has been more visible, active, and positively accepted by society. As acceptance progresses, research interests on the LGBT population have increased, driving the need for standard language for researchers to share for comparative and community-based participatory research. "What term is right?" is often the question researchers ask a very diverse LGBT community. In August 2012, the District of Columbia's Office of LGBT Affairs identified incongruent language in a number of published reports commissioned by the Mayor's Office. The Office realized the importance of standardized language for health …

Letter From The Executive Director: An Accidental Protester, James Wilson
Center for LGBTQ Studies (CLAGS)
This past January, I spent a cold, wet, and fabulous week in Paris. One evening while strolling along the Left Bank, sauntering in the shadows of the imposing grandeur of L’Hôtel national des Invalides, I found myself caught up in a massive wave of protesters, who were dispersing from a demonstration in front of the Eiffel Tower. The crowd moved like a protean organism through the narrow Parisian streets, growing in immensity as other protest groups siphoned into the throng from criss-crossing thoroughfares.

Seiring dengan berkembangnya teknologi transportasi dan komunikasi di era globalisasi ini, proses hibriditas budayapun berlangsung dengan cepat. Di satu sisi, kondisi ini mendorong orang-orang untuk mengenal dan belajar tentang berbagai budaya yang ada dalam masyarakat modern kita. Di sisi lain, kondisi ini juga mengangkat sejumlah permasalahan penting, seperti munculnya kesalahpahaman dan diskriminasi terhadap kelompok minoritas. Sejak jatuhnya rezim Soeharto pada tahun 1998, banyak kelompok yang dulunya tertindas, termasuk etnis Tionghoa, muncul dan membuat diri mereka didengar pada era demokrasi baru bangsa ini. Seiring peraturan pemerintah baru yang memperbolehkan kelompok ini untuk mempraktikkan budaya mereka tanpa batasanbatasan tertentu, kondisi masyarakat Tionghoa …

‘Kami Juga Punya Suara’: Dunia Blogging Buruh Migran Indonesia Di Hong Kong Sebagai Politik Budaya, Pratiwi Retnaningdyah
JURNAL KOMUNIKASI INDONESIA
Buruh migran domestik merupakan sosok yang sudah lama diperdebatkan sebagai kelompok perempuan yang paling dieksploitasi dan disubordinasi dalam konteks pembagian kerja di dunia kapitalisme global. Meskipun demikian, mereka sebenarnya aktif terlibat dalam berbagai kegiatan untuk bernegosiasi dengan struktur kekuasaan di pasar kerja transnasional. Tulisan ini mengulas bagaimana dan mengapa literasi digital memiliki peranan penting dalam kiprah Buruh Migran Indonesia (BMI). Saya berargumen bahwa BMI aktif melakukan 'reverse discourse’ secara individu dan kolektif untuk memperjuangan nilai dan legitimasi BMI melalu dunia blogging. Sebagai upaya untuk merekonstruksi identitas dan memberdayakan komunitas, dunia blogging adalah politik budaya, di mana identitas buruh migran dimaknai …

Terinspirasi oleh sejumlah kasus bunuh diri di pusat-pusat perbelanjaan (mall) di Jakarta pada2009, 17 penulis bekerja bersama untuk menulis sebuah novel berjudul Lenka dengan menjadikan kasus bunuh diri di tempat umum sebagai tema sentral. Tulisan ini mencermati bagaimana novel sebagai salah satu wujud media terbitan (publishing media) mengeksploitasi satu bagian realitas melalui proses kreatif dan mampu menyodorkan perspektif berbeda akan motif bunuh diri di tempat umum. Selain itu, aspek-aspek fiktif dalam novel dapat dimanfaatkan untuk mencermati kompleksitas di balik kasus bunuh diri yang tidak tereksplorasi oleh media massa. Tulisan ini juga mencoba menyentuh satu isu besar berkaitan dengan upaya tiada …

Televisi Lokal: Antara Kepentingan Korporat Dan Fungsi Sosial, Bram Hendrawan
JURNAL KOMUNIKASI INDONESIA
Kebanyakan studi mengenai televisi lokal di Indonesia fokus pada televisi sebagai mediumkonstruksi ruang publik dan identitas budaya. Pendekatan sosial ini melewatkan karakter penting yaitu komersialitas. Penelitian ini menelaah strategi korporat (struktur kepemilikan, perluasan wilayah siaran dan sumber pemasukan) yang dilakukan oleh dua televisi lokal swasta di Yogyakarta dan Solo: Jogja TV dan TATV. Pertanyaan utama yang diajukan adalah apakah strategi korporasi yang diterapkan membatasi fungsi sosial dari televisi lokal dan bagaimana ini bisa terjadi? Dalam artikel ini penulis beragumen bahwa strategi korporat kedua stasiun televisi ini membatasi potensi yang ada untuk menjalankan fungsi sosial televisi lokal sebagaimana diidamkan para pendukungnya. …
Social Media And The Transformation Of The Humanitarian Narrative: A Comparative Analysis Of Humanitarian Discourse In Libya 2011 And Bosnia 1994, Ellen Noble
Political Science Honors Projects
Within humanitarian discourse, there is a prevailing narrative: the powerful liberal heroes are saving the helpless, weak victims. However, the beginning of the 21st century marks the expansion of the digital revolution throughout lesser-developed states. Growing access to the Internet has enabled aid recipients to communicate with the outside world, giving them an unprecedented opportunity to reshape discourses surrounding humanitarianism. Through a comparative discourse analysis of Libyan Tweets, 1994 newspaper reports on Bosnia, and 2011 newspaper reports on Libya, this paper analyzes whether aid recipient discourse can resist the dominant humanitarian narrative and if that resistance can influence dominant …

What Really Matters: A Triangular Study Of Gender Roles And Standards Of Beauty In Cameroon Through The Lens Of Television Advertisements, Deborwah Faulk
Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection
Mass media increasingly has become a powerful force around the world. It is impactful and useful in its various forms such as film, books, newspapers, magazines, television and visual and audio music. However even in its informative, educational, communicative, and entertaining character, the media also has the propensity to mirror larger societal practices, perceptions, thoughts, and opinions pertaining to social dynamics encountered within society. Thus social constructs of gender, race, class and other identity characteristics are exemplified and amplified through media forms. Such realities found in the media have the propensity to be socially dangerous in that it can shape …

"It's Just That For The First Time, I Feel... Wicked": A Rhetorical Analysis Of Wicked's Elphaba Using Kenneth Burke's Guilt-Purification-Redemption Cycle, Patricia Foreman
Masters Theses
The purpose of this study was to examine the Broadway production, Wicked, and more specifically, the character of Elphaba, or the Wicked Witch of the West. The study utilized Kenneth Burke's theory of the guilt-purification-redemption cycle, and considered Elphaba's journey between the three steps of Burke's cycle. In order to understand this journey better, the researcher considered various facets of the show, including the script, lyrics, costuming, including attire and make-up, and interactions with other characters in the production. Elphaba's causes of guilt, including her mother's death, her relationship with Glinda, her cause in working with Animals, and failed magic …

Damsels And Heroines: The Conundrum Of The Post-Feminist Disney Princess, Cassandra Stover
Damsels And Heroines: The Conundrum Of The Post-Feminist Disney Princess, Cassandra Stover
LUX: A Journal of Transdisciplinary Writing and Research from Claremont Graduate University
This research explores cultural shifts in the popularity of the Disney princess in American culture, especially its postmodern resurgence, as well as the complex relationship between Disney’s recent representations of women in the 1990’s and post-feminist ideology. My project begins by analyzing the historic appearance of the Disney female in relation to the women’s movements. I also examine lingering anti-feminist backlash in representations of what I call “New Wave” Disney heroines. Finally, I examine the implications of post-feminist discourse and advertising for young female viewers.
Re-Masculating The Vampire: Conceptions Of Sexuality And The Undead From Rossetti's Proserpine To Meyer's Cullen, Emily Schuck
Re-Masculating The Vampire: Conceptions Of Sexuality And The Undead From Rossetti's Proserpine To Meyer's Cullen, Emily Schuck
LUX: A Journal of Transdisciplinary Writing and Research from Claremont Graduate University
This paper explores the relationship between sexuality and the undead from Victorian England to present day vampire narratives. Specifically, I examine the shift in the vampire narrative from the frightening Dracula to the extremely sexualized nature of vampires in the early twenty-first century. My results are concerned with the nature and exchange of fluids between vampire bodies and their victims (or lovers) and the power associated with that exchange. My conclusion implies that re-masculating the vampire is a return to a patriarchal dominant discourse promulgates the heteronormative status quo, unlike their early predecessors, which tend to undermine heteronormative sexuality.
Chicana Aesthetics: A View Of Unconcealed Alterities And Affirmations Of Chicana Identity Through Laura Aguilar’S Photographic Images, Daniel Perez
LUX: A Journal of Transdisciplinary Writing and Research from Claremont Graduate University
In this paper I will argue that Chicana feminist artist Laura Aguilar, Alma Lopez, Laura Molina, and Yreina D. Cervantez established a continuing counter-narrative of cultural hegemony and Western essentialized hegemonic identification. Through artistic expression they have developed an oppositional discourse that challenges racial stereotypes, discrimination, socio-economic inequalities, political representation, sexuality, femininity, and hegemonic discourse. I will present a complex critique of both art and culture through an inquiry of the production and evaluation of the Chicana feminist artist, their role as the artist, and their contributions to unfixing the traditional and marginalized feminine. I argue that third wave Chicana …
A Christian Understanding Of Aesthetic Agency: A Theological Framework Of Resistance To Cultural Imperialism, Elise Edwards
A Christian Understanding Of Aesthetic Agency: A Theological Framework Of Resistance To Cultural Imperialism, Elise Edwards
LUX: A Journal of Transdisciplinary Writing and Research from Claremont Graduate University
Aesthetic agency refers to conditions, capacities, and states that inform artistic forms of acting and exerting power on social structures. In resistance to the marginalization of women of color, aesthetic agency is exercised through creative acts of culture-making and critique of such practices to challenge domination and representation of the oppressed other. To support this work as a feminist Christian ethicist, I construct a theological framework for aesthetic agency. This paper proposes a theological understanding of transformative aesthetics and then describes the exercise of aesthetic agency for Christian communities by using a television special, Black Girls Rock! as an example.
Beauty-Ful Inferiority: Female Subservience In Disney’S Beauty And The Beast, Jeremy Chow
Beauty-Ful Inferiority: Female Subservience In Disney’S Beauty And The Beast, Jeremy Chow
LUX: A Journal of Transdisciplinary Writing and Research from Claremont Graduate University
The ubiquity of Disney movies has certainly transformed the American cultural landscape. The Disney zeitgeist manifests itself as generations of children actively seek Prince Charmings, unrealistic fairy tale relationships and the omnipotent, happily-ever-after. One such Disney favorite, Beauty and the Beast (1991), reveals typical Disney themes such as the power of altruism, the transformation of the anthropomorphic, and the catharsis of true love. Yet, under these benevolent-seeming Disney themes lurk more sinister, subliminal messages. Beauty and the Beast promotes female subservience and subjugation in addition to the glorification of abusive relationships. Belle, the female protagonist, embodies these gendered disparities and …

Mlipir: The Genesis Within Relations Of Production Between Industrial Sector And Rural Society, Rahardika Arista Utama
Masyarakat: Jurnal Sosiologi
This paper examines how the interactions between industrial development actors in rural setting reflect the internal dynamics of Third World countries that maintain dependence on developed countries. The diverse discussion on the impact of industrialization which mostly emphasized on particular issues is difficult to depict the comprehensive situation on the impacted society. Further analysis which recognized the existence of the mutual relations among state, market, and society is necessary to best describe the invisible but essential impact of industrialization. Thus, this paper argues that inequality is the essential impact of industrialization which has been emerged in various form of social …
