Menyingkap Mekanisme Tanda Di Balik Hiperrealitas Tren Hijab (Analisis Semiotika Pada Fenomena Tren Hijab), Tourmalina Tri Nugrahenny

JURNAL KOMUNIKASI INDONESIA

Hijab makin dikenal di Indonesia justru ketika maknanya terus berubah seiring konteks penggunaannya. Dampaknya, terjadi peningkatan produksi sekaligus konsumsi, hingga hijab menjadi tren mode. Dalam konsep Jean Baudrillard, hijab lantas menjadi hiperriil, dengan representasi makna yang juga terus-menerus berubah hingga menjadi hiperrealitas. Hijab kemudian ‘menggantikan’ jilbab, sekaligus memutus hubungan dengan realitas jilbab sebelumnya. Studi ini secara kritis menyingkap mekanisme tanda yang terjadi di balik terbentuknya sebuah hiperrealitas, khususnya pada tren mode hijab. Analisis semiotika Peirce digunakan agar studi ini mampu menyajikan secara komprehensif dan mendetil, berlangsungnya proses semiosis dalam simulasi, di tengah masyarakat konsumeris.

A Relevance Rule Organizing Responsive Behavior During Projectably Multi-Unit Tellings, Anri Zama

Dissertations and Theses

Research on projectably multi-unit tellings (e.g., stories) has largely focused on their contexts of emergence, beginnings, endings, and uptakes (or lack thereof), rather than on their ‘middles.’ The relatively small literature on such ‘middles’ has focused on different types of responsive behaviors when they do occur (e.g., continuers). However, there is virtually no research on relevance rules that might systematically organize these ‘middles,’ including the production of responsive behaviors (or lack thereof) and the management of intersubjectivity. This thesis describes and defends one such relevance rule: Advisors are strongly accountable for responding – either vocally and/or nonvocally – at each …

Masters Theses

From both theoretical and practical considerations, there is a critical need to study friendship development processes within different sociocultural worlds, because today’s world has become a crossroads for a diversity of cultures.

The present study aimed at comparing friendship development in a non-Westernized group to the stages of relational development suggested by a Western psychological theoretical framework. Tanzanian friendship experiences were analyzed through Knapp’s Relational Model to …

Foreign Language Classroom Anxiety: Midwestern Language Learner Exploration, Justin J. Mahutga

The Journal of Undergraduate Research

The objective of this study is to establish a baseline for understanding the extent …

Oneworld Stories: Intercultural Competence Through Literature, Jessica M. Bunch

Intercultural Learning Perspectives Of World Language Educators In Kentucky, Ernest Luke Mcclees

Online Theses and Dissertations

A line has become blurred between intercultural interactions and daily personal interactions. The once long distance for trade, travel and communication is at its’ smallest gap. However, “American graduates have been cited as being culturally deprived and linguistically illiterate, compared to students from other countries” (2013 Kentucky Standard for World Language Proficiency). For educational leaders to improve this current educational inadequacy, it is important to understand teachers’ intercultural beliefs and how they impact their classroom practices. What is not known is the present state of world language teachers’ global competence understanding and what they perceive to be best practices to …
