Hasrat Untuk Mati: Eksplorasi Tema Bunuh Diri Di Tempat Umum Dalam Novel Lenka, Dewi Anggraeni 2013 Universitas Indonesia

Hasrat Untuk Mati: Eksplorasi Tema Bunuh Diri Di Tempat Umum Dalam Novel Lenka, Dewi Anggraeni

JURNAL KOMUNIKASI INDONESIA

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 2013 Universitas Indonesia

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. …


Representasi Warga Tionghoa Dan Kecinaan Dalam Media Kontemporer Indonesia, Ezmieralda Melissa 2013 Universitas Indonesia

Representasi Warga Tionghoa Dan Kecinaan Dalam Media Kontemporer Indonesia, Ezmieralda Melissa

JURNAL KOMUNIKASI INDONESIA

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 …

"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 2013 University of Southern California

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 2013 Claremont Graduate University

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 2013 California State University, Dominguez Hills

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 2013 Claremont Graduate University

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 2013 Claremont Graduate University

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 …

Mencari Makna Pembangunan Sosial: Studi Kasus Sektor Informal Di Kota Solo, Paulus Wirutomo 2013 Universitas Indonesia

Mencari Makna Pembangunan Sosial: Studi Kasus Sektor Informal Di Kota Solo, Paulus Wirutomo

Masyarakat: Jurnal Sosiologi

The present development concept has been widely criticized for being too sectoral and growth oriented. A new concept like Human Development introduced by the United Nation is a good alternative, but it is still sectoral in nature. This article tries to offer a more sociological concept of development, since it is based on the contention that to develop human being we have to develop its society. It means to develop “the basic elements of socio-cultural life” namely: the structural, cultural and processual elements. By analyzing the data on the informal sector in Solo collected with SSM methodology, I have come …

Mlipir: The Genesis Within Relations Of Production Between Industrial Sector And Rural Society, Rahardika Arista Utama 2013 Independent Young People Alliance

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 …
