Od lingvistických anomálií k subverzi moci: Narušování jazyka moci a vyjádření vykořeněnosti skrze střídání a míšení jazyků v literatuře / From Linguistic Aberration to the Subversion of Power: Literary Code-switching and Code-mixing as Tools for Upsetting the Language of Power and Expressing Expatriation

Zelenková, Alena January 2016 (has links)
This thesis explores literary code-switching, i.e. multilingual aspects within a single speech, as a key polyphonic structural element in the selected works. First, it analyzes Gloria Anzaldúa's Borderlands: The New Mestiza = La Frontera (1987) as a work, where the author seeks to establish a literary tradition that would reflect the life in borderlands and the given community through a new language. Secondly, the language of photography and multilingual speech patterns in W. G. Sebald's The Emigrants (1992) are considered as vital elements of the authenticity play. The following chapter deals with Franz Kafka's short stories, where gestures form an essential part of, if not the whole stories, and determine the fragmentary nature of such writing. Finally, the importance of language of power, the discourse of social realism altogether with their emergence into private and intimate discussions through repetitions and variations is commented upon in Václav Havel's play The Garden Party (1963).

Arrangements of convenience : violent non-state actor relationships and citizen security in the shared borderlands of Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela

Idler, Annette Iris January 2014 (has links)
Borderlands are critical security zones but remain poorly understood. In regions plagued by drug violence and conflict, violent groups compete for territorial control, cooperate in illegal cross-border activities, and substitute for the functions of the state in these areas. Despite undermining physical security, fuelling fear, and challenging the state’s sovereignty, the exact modi operandi of these groups are little known. Against this backdrop, this thesis explores how different interactions among violent non-state actors (VNSAs) in the Colombian-Ecuadorian and Colombian-Venezuelan borderlands impact on citizen security. These border areas attract rebels, paramilitaries and criminal organisations alike: they constitute geo-strategic corridors for the global cocaine industry and are sites of supply and operation for the major actors involved in Colombia’s decades-long armed internal conflict. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this thesis consolidates the literature on conflict, security and organised crime, borders and borderlands, and anthropological approaches to fear and violence. It integrates theories of cooperation among social actors with original empirical research. It is based on a comparative, multi-sited case-study design, using ethnographic methods complemented by quantitative data. The research involved over twelve months of fieldwork with 433 interviews and participant observation on both sides of the crisis-affected Colombia-Ecuador and Colombia-Venezuela borders, and in Bogotá, Caracas and Quito. Developing a typology of VNSA interactions, I argue that these create not only physical violence but also less visible types of insecurity: when VNSAs fight each other, citizens are exposed to violence but follow the rules imposed by the opposing parties. Fragile alliances produce uncertainty among communities and erode the social fabric by fuelling interpersonal mistrust. Where VNSAs provide security and are socially recognised, "shadow citizen security" arises: security based on undemocratic means. I show that the geography of borderlands reinforces the distinct impacts of VNSA arrangements on citizen security yet renders them less visible.

A participação da mídia na construção de representações sobre a fronteira São Borja/BR - Santo Tomé/AR

Strassburger, Tabita January 2018 (has links)
A pesquisa tem como objetivo geral compreender as representações sobre a fronteira São Borja-Santo Tomé, divisa entre Brasil e Argentina, que circulam entre os profissionais da mídia são-borjense e nos meios de comunicação em que trabalham, a partir de entrevistas com esses sujeitos e da análise de produções que elaboram. Para tanto, foi constituído um corpus de unidades informativas a partir do jornal Folha de São Borja e dos programas radiofônicos Gente é Notícia e Atualidades, das emissoras Cultura AM e Fronteira FM, respectivamente. Os três veículos pertencem ao mesmo grupo empresarial de comunicação da cidade limítrofe brasileira. O período elegido para as análises inclui os meses de dezembro de 2016, janeiro e fevereiro de 2017, e foi definido por ser considerado de maior movimento na região, devido ao trânsito de pessoas pelas festas de final de ano, férias escolares e volta às aulas. Os principais conceitos acionados na investigação dizem respeito a jornalismo informativo, mídia local, fronteiras internacionais, culturas, identidades e representações sociais. A construção empírica e analítica buscou uma confluência de perspectivas e estratégias metodológicas, com entradas no campo nos dois municípios, pesquisa exploratória, entrevistas semiestruturadas com os profissionais da mídia são-borjense, diálogos informais com moradores das cidades-gêmeas, e Análise de Conteúdo das produções jornalísticas informativas mapeadas nos meios de comunicação As categorias encontradas remetem, prioritariamente, a representações de Interação e de Passagem ocorrendo no contexto investigado, e evidenciam eixos temáticos vinculados a Relações Comerciais, Institucionais, Culturais e Identitárias. Ainda, costumam ser construídas abordagens em torno das identidades argentinas, muitas vezes, sem diferenciar os santo-tomenhos e os turistas advindos de outros locais, e das identidades missioneiras, fazendo alusão ao passado comum dos povos vizinhos, em virtude da experiência histórica enquanto região de Reduções Jesuítico-Guarani. A pesquisa tem a pretensão de contribuir com as reflexões sobre as fronteiras internacionais no Campo das Ciências da Comunicação, contemplando uma realidade ainda pouco investigada na área, e pontuando aproximações e diferenciais desse cenário específico e particular, tendo em vista propostas desenvolvidas em publicações anteriores. / The main goal of this research is to understand the representations of the São Borja-Santo Tomé borderlands, between Brazil and Argentina, circulating amongst media professionals in São Borja and within the media outlets at which they work, drawing on interviews with said subjects as well as on the analysis of what they produce. The corpus, in that sense, encompasses informative units from newspaper Folha de São Borja and from radio programmes Gente é Notícia and Atualidades, from radio stations Cultura AM and Fronteira FM, respectively. All three outlets belong to the same corporate media group based on the Brazilian side of the boundary. The period chosen for analyses included the months of December 2016 as well as January and February 2017. It was defined in consideration of a larger flow of people in the region, due to the holiday season, the school holidays, and the back-to-school period. The main concepts to have been activated during this investigation relate to information journalism, local media, international borders, cultures, identities, and social representations. Empirical and analytical construction sought for a confluence of methodological perspectives and strategies, including fieldwork in both cities, exploratory research, semi-structured interviews with media professionals from São Borja, informal dialogues with residents of the twin cities, as well as Content Analysis of the production of information journalism mapped from the media outlets Categories found refer chiefly to representations of Interaction and of Passage that take place in the context in question, which bring forth thematic axes linked to Commercial, Institutional, Cultural, and Identity Relations. What is more, approaches around Argentine identities are usually often built without differentiating people from Santo Tomé to tourists from elsewhere in the country. Likewise, there is an approach around Missionary identities, alluding to a shared past of these neighbouring peoples due to historical experience as the Jesuit Missions of the Guaranis. This research intends to contribute with reflections on international borders within Communications, encompassing a reality that is still understudied in this field, highlighting approximations and differentials of this specific and particular scenario, considering the propositions of previous publications. / La pesquisa tiene como objetivo general comprender las representaciones sobre la frontera São Borja – Santo Tomé, línea divisoria entre Brasil y Argentina, que circulan entre los profesionales de los medios de São Borja y en los medios de comunicación en los que trabajan, a partir de entrevistas a estos sujetos y del análisis de las producciones que elaboran.

Internalizing Borderlands: the Performance of Borderlands Identity

De Roover, Megan 02 January 2013 (has links)
In order to establish a working understanding of borders, the critical conversation must be conscious of how the border is being used politically, theoretically, and socially. This thesis focuses on the border as forcibly ensuring the performance of identity as individuals, within the context of borderlands, become embodiments of the border, and their performance of identity is created by the influence of external borders that become internalized. The internalized border can be read both as infection, a problematic divide needing to be removed, as well as an opportunity for bridging, crossing that divide. I bring together Charles Bowden (Blue Desert), Monique Mojica (Princess Pocahontas and the Blue Spots), Leslie Marmon Silko (Ceremony, Almanac of the Dead), and Guillermo Verdecchia (Fronteras Americanas) in order to develop a comprehensive analysis of the border and border identity development. In these texts, individuals are forced to negotiate their sense of self according to pre-existing cultural and social expectations on either side of the border, performing identity according to how they want to be socially perceived. The result can often be read as a fragmentation of identity, a discrepancy between how the individual feels and how they are read. I examine how identity performance occurs within the context of the border, brought on by violence and exemplified through the division between the spirit world and the material world, the manipulation of costuming and uniforms, and the body. / Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (Joseph-Armand Bombardier Canada Graduate Scholarship Master’s Award).

Blossoms and borders: Cultivating apples and a modern countryside in the Pacific Northwest, 1890-2001.

Bennett, Jason Patrick 21 April 2008 (has links)
At the turn of the twentieth century, apples served as a catalyst for far-reaching social and environmental change in the North American West. As people debated the future of North American society as a rural or urban civilization, rural advocates found their answer in horticulture. Steadfast in their conviction that urban environments were corrupt, immoral, and disordered, people on both sides of the international boundary engaged in a boisterous promotional campaign that culminated with the creation of an orcharding landscape that spanned British Columbia, Washington State, and Oregon. Consequently, countless communities found new purpose or came into existence organized around the cultivation of apples and other assorted fruits. Fully aware of negative stereotypes that depicted farming as backwards and unfulfilling, horticulturists argued that fruit farming would lead to the creation of a modern countryside. Guided by scientific agriculture, refined and intelligent settlers would transform rural life by uniting in partnership with “Dame Nature,” leading to bountiful harvests as nature was finished to its “intended end.” As a result, the orcharding landscape would organize an alternative modernity that stood in juxtaposition to the urban-industrial axis of development. Despite their location in different political projects, fruit farmers on either side of the International Boundary bore striking affinities that were affirmed and reinforced through publications, associations, exhibitions, and educational initiatives, underlining the significance of the border as a vantage to appreciate divisions as well as continuities. While the creation of a modern countryside was sustained by high hopes, growers did not anticipate that nature’s bounty would in many instances stand as a curse rather than a blessing. Through two world wars, growers wrestled with the changing contours of rural life, particularly as it related to rural growth. While orcharding endured, its original conception as the nucleus of a progressive and middle class rural society did not.

Border Crossings and Transnational Movements in Sandra Cisneros’ Spatial Narratives Offer Alternatives to Dominant Discourse

Vallecillo, Raquel D 30 March 2017 (has links)
My study aims to reveal how ideologies, the way we perceive our world, what we believe, and our value judgments inextricably linked to a dominant discourse, have real and material consequences. In addition to explicating how these ideologies stem from a Western philosophical tradition, this thesis examines this thought-system alongside selections from Sandra Cisneros’ Woman Hollering Creek and Caramelo or Puro Cuento. My project reveals how Cisneros’ spatial narratives challenge ideologies concerning the border separating the United States and Mexico, which proves significant as the project of decolonization and understanding of identity formation is fundamentally tied to these geographical spaces. Through the main chapters in this thesis, it is proposed that Cisneros’ storytelling does not attempt to counter fixed ideas of spaces and identity or an alleged objective Truth and single History by presenting a true or better version, but offers alternative narratives as a form of resistance to dominant discourse.
