Le rapport aux médias et la profession exercée. Le cas des francophones du Nord-Ouest de l’OntarioLaflamme, Simon, Southcott, Chris 28 January 2009 (has links)
Cet article examine la relation entre le secteur dans lequel les individus travaillent et le niveau de
leur profession, d’une part, et, d’autre part, le rapport qu’ils entretiennent avec les médias, y
compris Internet, selon qu’ils en disposent ou non dans leur foyer et en fonction des usages qu’ils
en font. Il se penche aussi sur l’identité sociale, en mettant diverses manifestations en relation
avec la manière dont les individus vivent leur rapport aux médias. Il remet en question
l’hypothèse d’une forte association entre le niveau professionnel et le rapport aux médias. Il met
en évidence des phénomènes complexes d’homogénéisation et de différenciation sociales. Les
données proviennent d’un échantillon de travailleurs du nord-ouest de l’Ontario qui ont répondu à
un questionnaire centré sur le rapport aux médias.

The Effect of Social Classes on the Community and Schools of Clinton, TennesseeShumate, Robert N. 01 August 1956 (has links)
This problem was selected as a subject for research in connection with an effort to determine the extent and nature of the effect of social classes on the town and community of Clinton, Tennessee. It was assumed that social classes do have an effect on the community, and that the influences exerted upon the town and community because of pressure of social classes were significant and noticeable to one who puts forth the effort to make a study and an analysis of the situation. It was also assumed that these influences have a direct bearing on the life of the people in the community, and that the effect of such influences was usually unnoticed by most of the people.

La música nacional: changing perceptions of the Ecuadorian national identity in the aftermath of the rural migration of the 1970s and the international migration of the late 1990s / Changing perceptions of the Ecuadorian national identity in the aftermath of the rural migration of the 1970s and the international migration of the late 1990sWong, Ketty 28 August 2008 (has links)
This study examines changing perceptions of Ecuadorian national identity in the aftermath of the social, economic, and political transformations in Ecuador in the period 1960-2004. By comparing upper-middle-class discourses about Ecuador's lack of international presence in the world, on the one hand, and lowerclass musical practices expressing pride for Ecuadorian national culture, on the other, I seek to understand how Ecuadorians of different racial, ethnic, and social class backgrounds articulate their sense of nationhood. To these ends, I examine the notion of música nacional, a surrogate term for Ecuadorian music, as metaphor for Ecuadorian national identity. I argue that the way this phrase is used, showing the inclusion or exclusion of musical genres associated with the indigenous and the urban-working-class populations, provides information about how different social groups envision the nation's ethnic configuration. First, I analyze how the elites' ideology of mestizaje neglects the indigenous component of the mestizo nation, which is reflected in the nationalization of the pasillo in the 1930s. Then, I examine the emergence and development of música rocolera and música chicha, two styles of music associated with stigmatized working-class and indigenous populations, which emerged in the aftermath of the rural-to-urban migration in the 1970s. Finally, I examine the massive exodus of Ecuadorians to Spain and the United States as a result of the economic crisis in the late 1990s, which coincided with the tecnocumbia boom in Ecuador. I argue that changing perceptions of national identity at the turn of the twenty-first century are musically reflected in the decline of the pasillo, the elite symbol of the nation, and the boom of música chicha. I demonstrate that the naming of the latter as música nacional is symptomatic of the weakening of the socio-cultural hegemony of the uppermiddle classes. The lower classes are de-homogenizing, racializing, and pluralizing perceptions of "Ecuadorianness" through the dissemination of their music at national and international levels. By doing so, they are stressing the indigenous component of the mestizo nation and providing a better picture of the actual configuration of the Ecuadorian nation.

Does social class explain health inequalities? : a study of Great Britain and SpainDiaz Martinez, Elisa January 2004 (has links)
The main research questions examined in this thesis concern the extent to which social class influence individuals' health, and how and whether individuals' occupation, education and lifestyles mediate between class and health. The conclusions drawn from the analysis of these empirical questions cast further light on the widening health inequalities seen in developed societies in recent decades. In particular, this research suggests that, employment conditions as well as educational levels are variables that need to be taken into account when planning policies aimed at tackling differences in health outcomes. Lifestyle variables, on the other hand, would appear to be almost irrelevant when explaining why the members of the more privileged social classes not only live longer than those in other classes, but also enjoy significantly better health over the course of their lives. In trying to understand the association between class and health, I define a theoretical framework that specifies the mechanisms through which class is linked to health. Social structure influences health by distributing certain factors such as material resources or some health-related behaviour that ultimately result in individuals having different living conditions. Educational attainment also affects the way these resources are employed and, therefore, lifestyles. A fundamental element of a social class is occupation: individuals' employment and working conditions also affect their health. Furthermore, the nature of a social structure has an effect on health at the aggregate level of analysis since social policies are partly the result of the structure of class interests. Four mechanisms are specified in order to systematically test this theoretical framework. Mechanisms (2) and (3), those that relate class and health through education and lifestyle lie at the heart of the empirical analysis. This analysis employs individual-level data drawn from health surveys carried out during the first half of the 1990s in the two countries selected for the analysis, United Kingdom and Spain. These countries are treated as contexts in which to test the theoretical explanation. The main results of the analysis reveal the importance of social class in determining health outcomes. Indeed, individuals from different classes enjoy distinct degrees of health. Specifically, individuals in the most privileged class categories have persistently better health than those in the other class categories. Differences exist in terms of both objective and subjective or self-perceived health. Moving on from observation to explanation, the analysis suggests that the distribution of certain resources across classes accounts for some of the variance in health outcomes. Hence, education is identified as a significant variable to comprehend part of the health inequalities in developed societies. Lifestyle, on the other hand, does not appear relevant in accounting for health outcomes. The small differences found between the United Kingdom and Spain in the mechanisms that link class and health suggest that the process through which class affects health is essentially similar in developed societies.

Capital and stratification within virtual community : a case study of metafilter.comLawton, Paul, University of Lethbridge. Faculty of Arts and Science January 2005 (has links)
In this thesis, I conduct a case study of a virtual community (Metafilter.com) in order to apply Pierre Bourdieu's theory of capital and class to an online community. The specific goals for this thesis are in mapping the different forms of capital that are active in Metafilter in order to see how they structure its social space. The questions I address are: 1) what forsm of capital are active in the Metafilter community? 2) How are they similar to the forms of capital presented by Bourdieu? Having identified the active forms of capital, 3) do they act to influence stratification in the Metafilter community? / vi, 129 leaves ; 29 cm.
