Asian American and Dancing in Arizona; A Reflection on the Politics of Choreographing Migration and Citizenship in a Red StateJanuary 2017 (has links)
abstract: My thesis, Asian American and dancing in Arizona; A reflection on the politics of choreographing migration and citizenship in a Red State is a written document that reflects on my creative process of making You don’t belong here, a site-specific, multimedia dance theater piece which I conceived, choreographed, and directed in partial fulfillment of my Master in Fine Arts in Dance degree (MFA) at Arizona State University (ASU) in Tempe, Arizona. I write this reflection from the corporeal perspective of my Asian body. My story comes from my cells that contain the memories of my ancestors, including the recent traumas of my parents that escaped war in China. I am writing from my feminist body, my fleshly archive. I am writing from a historically marginalized perspective. I write this reflection to provide my kinesthetic narrative for those that may not know that I exist at ASU. I consider the conservative political ethos of Arizona as an impetus to discover what it means to be Asian American and dancing in the desert. / Dissertation/Thesis / Masters Thesis Dance 2017

Comunicação e democracia digital : estudo comparativo da conversação nos portais Votenaweb e Isidewith /Berti, Pedro Luis Bueno. January 2017 (has links)
Orientador: Danilo Rothberg / Banca: Caroline Kraus Luvizotto / Banca: Rousiley Celi Moreira Maia / Resumo: À medida que a internet pode contribuir para revigorar a democracia, a projeção de opiniões e a circulação de ideias sobre gestão pública, portais web que exploram as potencialidades da conversação online têm sido objetos apropriados de pesquisas que buscam conhecer as características da deliberação pública online. Esta dissertação investigou a conversação online em duas iniciativas similares, em países diferentes: VotenaWeb (Brasil) e ISideWith (Estados Unidos), que permitem a expressão de preferências sobre projetos de lei em apreciação no Parlamento. Os dados foram analisados em seis categorias de compreensão: "'justificação'", "reciprocidade", "reflexividade", "respeito", "informação" e "tópico". Os objetivos específicos foram: a) identificar as características da conversação virtual e indicar possíveis condições favoráveis à deliberação; b) fornecer um quadro geral sobre as características da utilização dos dois portais como plataforma para expressão política; c) apontar as possíveis diferenças na exposição de argumentos e uso de fontes de informação pelos usuários. Do portal VotenaWeb foram coletados e analisados, no total, 26.664 comentários, e do portal ISideWith, 3.528 comentários. Os resultados apresentaram diferenças significativas no uso de fontes de informação e no ambiente deliberativo construído pelos usuários. / Abstract: As far as the internet can contribute to reinvigorate the democracy, the projection of opinions and the circulation of ideas about public administration, web portals that explore potentialities of online conversation have been appropriate subjects of research seeking to understand characteristics of public online deliberation. This dissertation investigated two similar initiatives in different countries: VotenaWeb (Brazil) and ISideWith (United States), which allow expression of preferences concerning bills on appreciation at parliaments. The data were analysed in six categories of comprehension, each one admitting possibilities of classification: "justification", "reciprocity", "reflexivity", "respect", "information" and "topic". The specific aims were: a) to identify the virtual conversation characteristics and indicate possible conditions favorable to deliberation present in the each analyzed portal, according to the specialized literature; b) to provide a general framework on the use of the characteristics of the two portals as a platform for political expression; c) to point out possible differences in the expression of opinions and in the use of sources of information by citizens of each country. From VotenaWeb portal 26.664 comments were collected and analysed, and from ISideWith portal 3.528 comments were collected and analysed. The results presented significative differences in the use of sources of information and in the deliberative environment created by users. / Mestre

Previous issue date: 2003 / This paper, based on ethnographic research, presents the most evident changes among groups of low-income youth, the vast majority of whom are black or mixed-race, in Salvador and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, over the course of ten years. The notions of ideal work and ideal male or female partner change along with the growing popularity of a perception of citizenship that is increasingly centered on individuals and their freedom of movement and conspicuous consumption – the measurement of participation in societies and their collective rituals. Among these youth there is also a renewed interest in blackness and youth, features which are no longer hidden, but celebrated and vindicated. In this context, new demands for citizenship take shape, along with a new feeling of relative dispossession: both are indicators of the new face of poverty in Brazil.

Exclusion and immigrant incorporation: The politics of citizenshipFridell, Mara J., 1969- 12 1900 (has links)
xiv, 354 p. : ill. A print copy of this title is available from the UO Libraries, under the call number: KNIGHT JV8222 .F75 2007 / In both Sweden and the United States immigration has increased, and public concern over immigration, integration, and social citizenship has become heightened. Across affluent Western countries, immigration and integration concerns have been molded into a consensus on the need to instill discipline, but conflict has emerged through public discussions of where discipline is to be applied. Analyzing media content and public documents, I find that in Sweden and in Europe more broadly, as in the United States, some disciplinary political narratives suggest that immigrants themselves are deviant and should be targeted for exclusion from the social rights of citizenship; other narratives hold that immigrants can best be incorporated by using the state to facilitate the expansion of the secondary labor market. It is popularly claimed that the expansion of secondary labor markets promotes economic inclusion, which is held to be the foundation for integration. While this has proven an effective wedge among voters, I probe the validity of this neoliberal claim by reviewing the integration of previous labor immigrants in Sweden through industrial-sector jobs, and by examining immigrant economic inclusion and social citizenship in the U.S. I use comparative data on inequality and immigration within the United States and across Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development countries to assess trends in relationships driving social citizenship politics. In interviews with policy makers and integration officials and reviewing the labor union confederation literature in Sweden, I find satisfaction with the operation of the Swedish social democratic division of labor in immigrant policy-setting and integration; as well I find on the national level a lack of concern with the wider, politically-transformative implications of prominent social citizenship politics. This allows me to demonstrate how state actors and even labor institutions can be steered into facilitating neoliberal wedge politics and reforms that undermine social citizenship in favor of concentrated accumulation. / Adviser: Linda Fuller

Aspirational Migration: The Case of Chinese Birth Tourism in the U.S.Folse, Brandon 06 September 2017 (has links)
The ways in which individuals navigate the globe today complicates previous conceptualizations of migration and mobility. Once such mode of contemporary movement which challenges scholars is known as "birth tourism." This research considers birth tourism to be a form of "lifestyle migration," which I label aspirational migration. By analyzing the motivations which drive many parents to give birth abroad, I shed light on the complex and risky process, which involves a host of players, including family, friends, and a global birth tourism infrastructure. Through this drawn-out process, which begins well before the decision to give birth abroad and continues into the distant future, I argue that birth tourists and their foreign-born children become aspirational migrants and acquire cosmopolitan capital.

Demarcating the cité française : exclusion and inclusion in colonial Algeria, 1870-1938Ofrath, Avner January 2017 (has links)
This thesis discusses the unmaking of republican citizenship in colonial Algeria and the reverberations of this process in the metropole under the Third Republic, as well as demands and contestations by various populations in the colony concerning participation and rights. The attempt to establish a regime of privileges for settlers and to exclude the Muslim majority led politicians, jurists, and administrators to rely on religion and ethnicity as legal criteria to demarcate the boundaries of French citizenship. In their quest to legitimise the political exclusion of the Muslim population, politicians and legal experts from the late nineteenth century onwards portrayed Islam as an immobile and unmodern religion. Reiterated in mainland France whenever the demand for political reform in Algeria was raised, such theories gave rise to the widely-held view that being Muslim was inherently irreconcilable with being French. At the same time, the thesis examines colonial reform movements and moments of asymmetrical negotiation between populations in Algeria and the state on the demarcation of French citizenry. Both the naturalisation of the Algerian Jews and the backlash against it are re-interpreted here to highlight the pivotal role played by the local and the settler populations. In a similar vein, the thesis discusses debates sparked in the early twentieth century by Algerian Muslim campaigns for political rights, debates which yielded alternative visions of participation in the Republic. The failure of such attempts to accommodate religious difference on the eve of collapse of the Third Republic re-affirmed the colonial order in Algeria and the deep imprint it had left on conceptions of French citizenship.

miguel_if_me_prud.pdf: 1607945 bytes, checksum: 97f6c179ba4493ea92263b45aea7de20 (MD5) / Secretaria Estadual de Educação / Esse trabalho apresenta alguns questionamentos sobre religiosidade e as relações de gênero dela decorrentes que merecem um espaço nas pautas das discussões cujo tema é a construção da cidadania e da emancipação humana. Procuramos mostrar que tais questões embora presentes no cotidiano escolar, foram se tornando corriqueiras a ponto de tornarem-se imperceptíveis aos sujeitos que as vivenciam. O texto trata das relações de gênero instituídas por meio da religião, com enfoque nas professoras crentes da Congregação Cristã no Brasil, uma igreja que conta com um número considerável de fiéis e que apresenta características diferenciadas das demais igrejas pentecostais. Discute-se alguns conceitos que se cruzam e entrecruzam ao longo do trabalho, e se encerra concluindo que embora o discurso circulante afirme que “religião não se discute”, se faz necessário incluir na pauta das discussões as questões referentes à identidade/diferença, produzidas pelas religiões, apesar da complexidade dessa tarefa já que não se constitui numa questão gerada no interior de movimentos sociais, e nem possui características reivindicatórias de nenhum grupo social. / This paper presents some queries about religiosity and the gender relations related to them that deserve to be discussed whose theme is the construction of citizenship and human emancipation. However, such queries are present in school routine; they were so common that became imperceptible to the ones who lived it, The text deals with gender relations instituted by religion, focusing on protestant teachers from “ Congregação Cristã no Brasil” a church which has a great number of followers and has different characteristics from other Pentecostal churches. Some concepts that crossed and intercrossed throughout the paper are discussed, and it ends concluding that, although circulating speech claims that “we must not discuss religion”, it is an issue needed to be discussed referring to identity/differences, created by religions, in despite of complexity of this task because it is not a query generated inside social movements, and neither has characteristics of vindication from any social group.

dias_ra_dr_guara.pdf: 2310980 bytes, checksum: 56d56c7167fc9de0ceaa3ddb17fa8a20 (MD5) / Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP) / As iniciativas destinadas ao uso racional da energia, em virtude da característica integradora de conceitos desse tema, revelam-se tanto nas ações mais elementares, como a eliminação do desperdício, quanto nas análises mais rebuscadas, envolvendo estudos técnico-econômicos para a escolha de uma determinada intervenção. Nesse leque de opções, a educação é um elemento sempre lembrado e tido como condição de significativa importância para levar adiante a mudança de valores dos consumidores de energia em prol da economia de recursos naturais e de capital. Todavia, a abordagem educacional do uso racional da energia, apesar das iniciativas pioneiras, necessita ser focalizada no indivíduo, no que se refere aos processos afetivos e cognitivos, para posteriormente agregar as informações de caráter técnico, visandose o incentivo à ação social. Para esse desenvolvimento, além dos estudos oriundos das atividades do setor energético, agregaram-se informações de domínio da psicologia e da educação, balizando-se pela legislação vigente e pelos critérios paramétricos da educação no Brasil. A característica transversal do tema, através do ensino contextualizado, cria condições favoráveis à construção do conhecimento a respeito da energia e seu uso e, portanto, tem potencial de promover o desenvolvimento sustentável pela cidadania. O presente modelo educacional para a conservação da energia tem o objetivo de contribuir com o setor energético visando sistematizar os conteúdos nos ensinos fundamental, médio e superior a partir de ferramentas efetivas para os processos de ensino-aprendizagem, auxiliando os educadores desses segmentos no planejamento do ensino. / The initiatives aimed to energy conservation, due to its integrating characteristics, conduct many actions, since the energy waste elimination to the most sophisticated tool of intervention, as viability studies. In this range of options, the education always is remembered, because it is an important way to get the change of human values in a favor to save natural resources and capital. However, the educational broach of rational energy use, in spite of pioneering actions, needs to be person focused, relatively to the affective and cognitive process, to aggregate subsequently the technical information, looking for the social actions. For this development, beyond studies with origin in energy sector, information of psychology and educational domain was considered, aligning with present Brazilian legislation and educational parametric criteria. The transverse characteristic of this topic, by a contextualized teaching, create favorable conditions to knowledge build in relation to energy and its consumption and, hence, it has potential to promote the sustainable development by citizenship. The present educational model to the energy conservation has the objective to contribute with energy sector, in direction to systematize the contents at fundamental, middle and superior educational levels, starting from effective tools in teaching and learning process, helping teachers in these segments at teach planning. KEYWORDS: Energy conservation, teaching for citizenship, education.

Belonging With the Lost Boys: The Mobilization of Audiences and Volunteers at a Refugee Community Center in Phoenix, ArizonaJanuary 2014 (has links)
abstract: In 2001, a refugee group of unaccompanied minors known as the Lost Boys of Sudan began arriving in the United States. Their early years were met with extensive media coverage and scores of well-meaning volunteers in scattered resettlement locations across the country. Their story was told in television news reports, documentary films, and published memoirs. Updates regularly appeared in newsprint media. Scholars have criticized public depictions of refugees as frequently de-politicized, devoid of historical context, and often depicting voiceless masses of humanity rather than individuals with skills and histories (Malkki 1996, Harrell-Bond and Voutira 2007). These representations matter because they are both shaped by and shape what is possible in public discourse and everyday relations. This dissertation research creates an intersection where public representation and everyday practices meet. Through participant observation as a volunteer at a refugee community center in Phoenix, Arizona, this research explores the emotions, social roles and relations that underpin community formation, and investigates the narratives, representations, and performances that local Lost Boys and their publics engage in. I take the assertion that "refugee issues are one privileged site for the study of humanitarian interventions through which 'the international community' constitutes itself " (Malkki 1996: 378) and consider formation of local 'communities of feeling' (Riches and Dawson 1996) in order to offer a critique of humanitarianism as mobilized and enacted around the Lost Boys. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Geography 2014
