The Social Importance of a Small-town Theater: A Case Study of the Pulaski Theatre, Pulaski, Virginia

Allen, April Diane 04 May 2004 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to discover the various meanings that the Pulaski Theatre held for the residents of Pulaski and the theatre's social importance to the town. The following research objectives directed this study: 1) to document the theatre's history from the time it was built in 1911 until the present day, 2) to uncover memories or feelings associated with the theatre, and 3) to determine if design features of the theatre building influenced those feelings/memories. In documenting the history of the theatre, design features of the original 1911 building were examined as well as changes over time. To determine if design features of the building influenced the feelings/memories that were associated with the structure it was important first to discover which architectural and design features people remembered, if any, and then to determine if these design features reflected a meaningful association, i.e. sense of place to participants. Also of interest was whether this association or sense of place would be similar or different for all. Participants were fifteen males and females aged 43 to 82 who had attended the theatre over time. All participants grew up in Pulaski and six had lived there their entire lives. Both African Americans and Caucasians participated. Subjects were asked to draw a picture of the theatre that expressed their experience of the space. After the drawing, they were asked to discuss the picture and its meaning to them. Clare Cooper Marcus and others used this environmental autobiography technique as a method to bring a person's experiences of a place to a conscious level. Tape-recorded interviews were conducted and transcribed by the researcher to discover memories of the theatre and the meaning of the theatre to the participants. Data were analyzed by coding to look for emerging themes or categories that relate to the research question. Of interest was whether or not the Pulaski Theatre represented a sense of place to residents and if that sense of place varied for different participants. Document research was conducted through old newspapers and artifacts in the Raymond Ratcliffe Museum (the historic museum in Pulaski), documents from scrapbooks, architectural plans, and the files of the Town of Pulaski. Themes that were identified from the research were (1) the structure was an integral part of the community, (2) the theatre was a reflection of the community's social norms and roles, such as segregation, and (3) the theatre interior contributed to the social atmosphere of the space. The theatre building, while transformed over time, retained a presence in the town and memories associated with it across time were significant in creating a sense of place in the community. The theatre was remembered as a setting that brought excitement and stimulation to children and adults for many years. Participants felt "at home" in the theatre, having favored sections of the theatre where they routinely sat. School children attending the weekly matinees in the summer and African Americans sitting in their special section of the balcony developed a special identity with that particular space within the theatre. Even after segregation, many African Americans continued to sit in the balcony where they had sat for many years and felt at home. The unique characteristics of these spaces were dependent on the people that frequented them rather than the architecture of the building. The sense of place was one of personal relationships and emotional attachments rather than of bricks and mortar. Memories of the theatre were stories of groups or individuals and their interactions in the space. The building represented these individuals and what they brought to this place and time. The Pulaski Theatre played a great role in interactions with friends and neighbors and was significant in reflecting a sense of place in this community. / Ph. D.

Sociala företag och arbetsintegration : En studie om hur sociala företag kan bidra till att möjliggöra och begränsa arbetsintegration för arbetsmarginaliserade individer / Social enterprises and work integration : How social enterprises enable and restrict work integration to marginalized individuals

Eriksson, Josefine January 2015 (has links)
Social enterprises are in some contexts considered to be a solution of social exclusion. Studies have tried to reach a deeper understanding of the relatively new phenomenon 'work-integrating social enterprises' by asking questions like 'what is a social enterprise?'. The purpose of this research is to create a greater understanding of how social enterprises can enable and/or restrict work-integration. Data is collected through qualitative interviews conducted on six social enterprise managers. The research focuses on how and to what extent organizational structure components (including functions, target group, leadership and control, along with recruitment and specialization) can lead to work-integration. The research shows a discrepancy of what the social enterprises say they are and what they say they do. I find it to be an effect depending on them being similar to other common enterprises. This is evident in their being located on the regular labor market, having the same demands in competitive and effective production. This research shows how social enterprises restrict individuals just as a common enterprise. By only recruiting individuals with desired abilities and knowledge, the social enterprises reproduces exclusion of individuals and thereby restrict work-integration for the most marginalized individuals. The research also shows that by actually giving a chance of work-integration to marginalized individuals (even if it is a limited chance), social enterprises are an alternative to common enterprises. / I flera sammanhang anses sociala företag vara en lösning på utanförskapet. Tidigare studier har sökt en djupare förståelse av det relativt nya fenomenet "arbetsintegrerande sociala företag" genom att ställa sig frågor som "vad är ett socialt företag?". Syftet med denna studie är att skapa en större förståelse för hur sociala företag kan möjliggöra och/eller begränsa arbetsintegration. I studien har en kvalitativ metod använts i form av intervjuer med sex verksamhetsledare på olika sociala företag. Studien fokuserar på hur och i vilken utsträckning som organisationsstrukturens komponenter (funktion, målgrupp, ledarskap, kontroll samt rekrytering och specialisering) kan leda till arbetsintegration. Studien visar hur sociala företag begränsar individer precis som ett vanligt företag. Genom att bara rekrytera individer med efterfrågade förmågor och kunskaper reproducerar de sociala företagen exklusionen av individer och därmed begränsar de arbetsintegration för de mest marginaliserade individerna. Resultatet visar också att genom att de sociala företagen faktiskt ger en chans till arbetsintegrering för marginaliserade individer (även om det är en begränsad sådan), så är de ändå ett alternativ till de vanliga företagen för individerna.

Through a historical analysis, from its inception to the present day, including within the legal framework, which will focus on the laws that in some way, or helped or hindered its implementation. In addition to the analysis of political involvement that is behind the difficulties of their work, it will also be shown how it is harming society as a whole, and be bringing losses in several areas, including the state. During the work, Papiloscopia will be presented as follows: in the first chapter, entitled Identification of History, will be presented some methods that are already in disuse and others used to identify people, especially those who commit crimes not commit, and show its evolution in different historical periods, from ancient history to the present. Also in this chapter, it is presented to the reader why the Papiloscopia be considered a science and how it was brought to South America and consequently to Brazil. In the second chapter, the first records of this science will be shown in the State of Goiás, which is held this science in Goiás, where it is exercised and what it means to be present for society, by demonstrating their fields. In the third chapter, the reasons will be discussed, the reasons for this invisibility science in criminal prosecution in Goiás, main reason of this work. The Ideal would it not this invisibility, but what we see is an intriguing fact, disjointed, unfounded, or as would the legal, unsubstantiated, started within institutions, which, logically, should be main disseminators of this science, which are higher education institutions, responsible for the training of legal operators. To finish the work, we present some proposals in the short, medium and long term to cure any such deficiency over the final considerations. / Esta dissertação faz a análise de uma ciência chamada Papiloscopia, que trabalha, através das impressões digitais, com a individualização e identificação do indivíduo e que, infelizmente, não é tão utilizada como deveria em nosso meio jurídico. Através de uma análise histórica, desde o seu surgimento até os dias de hoje, inclusive, dentro do âmbito jurídico, onde enfocaremos nas leis que, de alguma forma, ou ajudaram ou atrapalharam sua aplicação. Além da análise do envolvimento político que há por trás das dificuldades de sua atuação, será demonstrado também o quanto isso vem prejudicando a sociedade como um todo, além de estar trazendo prejuízos em diversas áreas, inclusive ao Estado. No decorrer do trabalho, a Papiloscopia será apresentada da seguinte forma: no primeiro capítulo, intitulado de Histórico da Identificação, serão apresentados alguns métodos utilizados que já estão em desuso e outros ainda utilizados para identificar as pessoas, principalmente os que cometem crimes dos que não cometem, além de mostrar a sua evolução nos diversos períodos históricos, desde a História Antiga até a atualidade. Ainda neste capítulo, é apresentado ao leitor o porquê de a Papiloscopia ser considerada uma ciência e como ela foi trazida para a América do Sul e conseqüentemente, ao Brasil. No segundo capítulo, serão mostrados os primeiros registros dessa ciência no Estado de Goiás, onde ela é exercida e o que significa a sua presença para a sociedade, através da demonstração de suas áreas de atuação. No terceiro capítulo, serão abordados os motivos, as razões da invisibilidade dessa ciência na persecução penal em Goiás, motivo principal deste trabalho. O ideal seria ela não ter essa invisibilidade, mas o que constatamos é uma realidade intrigante, desconexa, infundada, ou como diriam os jurídicos, não fundamentada, iniciada dentro de instituições, que, pela lógica, deveriam ser as suas principais divulgadoras, que são as instituições de ensino superior, responsáveis pela formação dos operadores jurídicos. Para finalizarmos o trabalho, apresentamos algumas propostas a curto, médio e a longo prazo para sanarmos essa deficiência ao longo das considerações finais.
