Fungi + Plastics = <3 : Collaborative design for coliving in queer ecologiesLasnier Guilloteau, Mathilde January 2022 (has links)
As plastic pollution is considered a potential geological marker of the Anthropocene, some living organisms have evolved and adapted into symbiotic relationships with polymers. The wicked problem of pollution and toxic exposure contributes to waste colonialism, which is inherent to the current state of climate and ecological emergency. From plastics to fungi and back again, this project speculates on the possibilities to decolonise plastic waste with the help of a plastic-decomposing fungus. My research prompts toward anthropo-de-centrism and multispecies storytelling as design methods to develop care for plastic waste. The project draws upon the complexity of fungi-plastics-humans relations and is supported by a transdisciplinary collaborative research focused on fungi cultivation. At the core of this practice, I relate the omnipresence of fungi and plastics to queer ecologies, and as such, I develop my design proposal with generative toxicity as theoretical and creative framework. To materialise this, I propose a workshop bridging between local communities of designers and self-taught mycologists, in order to change the general opinion on plastic waste by focusing on hosting and care as forms of slow activism. The longer-term aim would be a systemic rebalancing of our permanently polluted world. Queer ecologies could therefore contribute to refine what sustainability means for design today by facilitating multispecies care and decolonising gestures.

A ética do convívio ecossustentável : uma biografia de José Lutzenberger / Ecologically sustainable life and ethics : a biography of José LutzenbergerPereira, Elenita Malta January 2016 (has links)
Esta tese visa a construção de uma biografia histórica do engenheiro agrônomo e ambientalista José Lutzenberger (1926-2002). O objetivo é compreender de que maneira a trajetória de Lutzenberger se articula com a construção de uma ética ecológica, em meio às lutas que ele protagonizou ao longo de trinta e um anos de militância ambiental. O fio condutor da narrativa é a ética ecológica, pois foi o elemento central em seu trabalho, que orientava sua própria visão de como o mundo deveria ser se a humanidade adotasse uma postura que priorizasse a ecologia. Utilizou-se, entre outros acervos, principalmente documentação do Arquivo Privado de José Lutzenberger (APJL): correspondência, recortes de jornais e revistas, iconografia, obras de Lutzenberger e de terceiros, documentos pessoais e oficiais, textos de depoimentos, conferências e de entrevistas, charges, textos técnicos. Também fizemos uso de fontes orais. A tese está estruturada em oito capítulos, de acordo com as lutas e posições ocupadas por Lutzenberger, ao longo de sua trajetória, enfocando as principais campanhas ambientalistas em que se envolveu, o cargo de Secretário de Meio Ambiente no governo Collor, sua atuação como empresário de “tecnologias suaves”, seu trabalho com educação ambiental e agricultura ecológica. O trabalho também analisa as redes de relações tecidas pelo personagem e a abordagem teórica em que se embasou para criar sua ética ecológica, de caráter ecocêntrico. Foi possível avançar no entendimento do arcabouço intelectual de Lutzenberger, bem como na dinâmica de sua militância, oferecendo uma sistematização dos princípios do que chamamos a Ética Lutzenbergeriana, ou Ética do convívio ecossustentável. / This dissertation aims at constructing a historical biography of José Lutzenberger, agronomist and environmental engineer (1926-2002). This biography aids in observing how his trajectory is articulated with the construction of an ecological ethics amidst his protagonism in 31 years of environmental militancy. Ecological ethics conduces this narrative as this was the central element in his work, guiding his own view of how the world should be if Humanity adopted a posture that prioritized Ecology. The main documental source was his private archive (Arquivo Privado de José Lutzenberger - APJL). Other sources used were correspondence, news clippings, iconography, works by Lutzenberger and others, personal and official documents, textual testimonials, conferences and interviews, editorial cartoons, and technical texts. Oral sources have also been used. The 8-chapter structure of this dissertation delineates the positions occupied by Lutzenberger and his trajectory of fight, with focus on the main environmentalist campaigns with which he was involved, as well as his position as Secretary of the Environment during the Collor administration, his business in "soft technology", his work with ecological agriculture and environmental education. This study also presents analysis of the networks created around him, as well as the theoretical bases he used to create the ecological ethics with its eco-centric character. Advances in the understanding of Lutzenberger's intellectual outlines and of the dynamics of his militancy in this work offer a systematization of principles named the Lutzenbergerian Ethics, or the Ethics of Eco-sustainable Life.

大眾傳播與社會運動:框架理論的觀點 / Mass Media and Social Movement: Framing Approach胡晉翔, Hu, Jing Hsiang Unknown Date (has links)
近二十年來,社會運動研究蓬勃發展,研究成果亦有可觀,但傳統社運研究忽略了意義建構研究的重要性。傳播研究雖然注重大眾傳播媒體對於社會運動的報導,但多由霸權論的角度出發,認為大傳媒體只是事件的次級界定者,複製當權者的意識型態,抗爭者的聲音很難在媒體上出現。
隨著馬克思主義的修正,這種觀點近來飽受質疑,學者多稱其犯了媒介中心論的謬誤,忽略了社運團體主動建構意義的角色。本論文即由框架的角度出發,認為大傳媒體是各種不同意識型態競爭的場域,社運團體主動參與新聞的生產;探討在權力關係不均衡的情況下,社運組織如何運用媒介策略,影響新聞內容的形成。
本論文以78至79年發生的「無住屋者運動」為例,分析中國時報、自立早報與中央日報的報導,配合與社運團體訪談的方式,試圖回答以下問題:
一、社會運動在報紙上所呈現的框架為何?
二、檢驗媒介中心論,社運團體在媒體上受到的處理是否一定比官方消息來源不利?
三、社運團體可能使用的媒介策略為何?
四、媒介策略與報紙框架的關聯性為何?
研究發現,「無住屋者運動」在報紙上呈現的框架以主要事件為主,藉由一連串反諷的抗爭事件,「無住屋者運動」建立起幽默風趣的抗爭風格。此外,媒介中心論並不適用於本研究案例,即報紙對「無住屋者團結組織」的新聞處理優於官方組織。
「無住屋者團結組織」的媒介策略是社運成功的最大原因,製造具新聞價值的抗爭行動、與媒體建立良好關係並贏得記者的認同、發布易於改寫的新聞稿是最有效的媒介策略。由「無住屋者運動」的案例可看出,政治經濟等結構性因素並非影響新聞內容的唯一原因。社運團體如能妥善利用媒介策略,將能在媒體上呈現社運主張。

Urban Compactness: A Study Of Ankara Urban FormCaliskan, Olgu 01 September 2004 (has links) (PDF)
Sustainable urban development is mentioned together with the concept of urban form in contemporary planning literature. The main reason behind this is a need for determining an ideal physical development scheme and its main principles of urban future in a broad term. Besides, the operational side of urban planning requires a concrete set of design codes in order to transform urban space in both macro and mezzo scale. At this point, the concept of urban compactness and the idea of Compact City have come into the agenda of planning.
In the last decade, the model of compact city has become a prototype of sustainable urban form in developed countries. It is also argued whether compact urbanity is a nostalgic metaphor or an engineering solution. It has emerged as a reaction to the negative consequences of urban sprawl and suburbanization as the anti-urbanist urban phenomena in Western geographies. Hence, the relevance of urban compactness should be examined for developing and underdeveloped countries and their settlement structures.
The basic motivation of the thesis is to examine the relevance and validity of urban compactness in the case of Turkey as a developing Eurasian country. For this end, the evolution of urban compactness as a fact and an idea in the historical context of developed countries and it&rsquo / s meaning for the developing world / Ankara is examined as a case study by re-reading its planning history and the transformation of its urban form from the point of view of compactness.

Mobilité urbaine et navigation socio-spatiale à Bobo-Dioulasso, un angle pour saisir une ville africaineKanazoé, Houd 01 March 2022 (has links)
Research on perception and characterisation of African cities is generally divided between two theses. The first, known as Euro-centric because of its analytical capacity based exclusively on the European cities model results on image of African cities as elusive, unknowable, informal entities. Faced with this vision, a postcolonial vision has emerged urban studies, calling for a change of paradigm. The latter's main objective is to revisit these criticisms about African cities through an approach that refutes these characterisations by placing at the heart of the debate the way in which African cities are perceived and experienced by their inhabitants and by looking closely at the often-inventive practices of these populations. To achieve this objective, this thesis focuses on the social universe of taxi drivers using the concept of socio-spatial navigation conceived as a form of mobility in the wake of New mobility paradigm. The methodology combines an ethnographic approach which consisted of participant observation to understand the practices of the populations and an inductive approach (Grounded Theory) to identify the ideas and perspectives of the actors. To this end, 125 taxi drivers, 50 tricycle drivers and 3 bus drivers corresponding to 5% of their self-declared were monitored.
The results about the use of collective taxis, buses and tricycles revealed a number of tensions. These tensions are between what is legal, i.e. authorised by the authority, and what is illegal (taxi using gas, tricycle as a mean of transportation), i.e. forbidden by the authority, but generated by the people (from below) in close relation to their daily reality and above all as a response to the gap between the institutional planning and management model and their own city. This situation brings out a pattern of a moral economy of mobility
The second category of results relates to spatial knowledge of the city. The study revealed that the city of Bobo-Dioulasso is an entity that can be known and understood through a learning process. This process consists of memorising two types of landmarks (visible and invisible) through practical experiences and information received from other city dwellers. Furthermore, the games played by the actors during collective taxi ride revealed that the taxi is not just a simple means of transportation. It is a place of important interactions. Depending on the taxi driver's skills of Know-how and Know how to be, the taxi space oscillates between a non-place, non non-place and a heterotopia of deviance. / La recherche sur la perception et la caractérisation des villes africaines est globalement partagée entre deux thèses. La première qualifiée d’euro-centrique par ses analyses qui s’inspirent exclusivement du modèle européen abouti à des images de la ville africaine comme des entités insaisissables, inconnaissables, informelles, etc. Face à cette vision a émergé une vision postcoloniale qui appel à un changement de paradigme dans les études urbaines. Cette dernière a pour objectif majeur de revisiter ces critiques sur la ville africaine par une approche qui réfute ces caractérisations en replaçant au cœur du débat la façon dont les villes africaines sont perçues et vécues par les habitants et en regardant de près les pratiques souvent inventives de ces populations. Pour atteindre cet objectif, cette thèse s’intéresse à l’univers social des chauffeurs de taxi à l’aide du concept de la navigation socio-spatiale conçu comme une forme de mobilité dans le sillage de la New mobility paradigm. La méthodologie combine une approche ethnographique qui a consisté à une observation participante pour comprendre les pratiques des populations et une approche inductive (Grounded Theory) pour cerner les idées et les perspectives des acteurs. A cet effet, ce sont 125 chauffeurs de taxi, 50 chauffeurs de tricycles et 3 chauffeurs de bus correspondant à 5% de leurs effectifs déclarés par les acteurs eux-mêmes qui ont été suivis.
Les résultats sur l’utilisation des taxis collectifs, du bus et des tricycles ont fait ressortir un certain nombre de tension. Ces tensions se situent entre ce qui est légal, c’est-à-dire autorisé par l’autorité et ce qui est illégale (taxi à gaz, tricycle transportant des passagers) donc interdit par cette autorité, mais généré par les populations (par le bas) en étroite relation avec leur réalité quotidienne et surtout en guise de réponse à l’écart entre le modèle de planification et de gestion institutionnelle et leur ville à eux. Cette situation fait ressortir un schéma d’une économie morale de la mobilité.
Les résultats relatifs à la connaissance spatiale de la ville. L’étude a révélé que la ville de Bobo-Dioulasso est une entité que l’on peut connaitre, saisir à travers un apprentissage de la ville. Ce processus consiste à mémoriser deux types de repères (visibles et invisibles) à travers des expériences pratiques et des informations reçues d'autres citadins. Par ailleurs, les jeux d’acteurs lors des déplacements en taxi collectif ont permis de révéler que le taxi n’est pas seulement un simple moyen de déplacement. Il est le lieu d’importantes interactions. En fonction des compétences de savoir-faire et de savoir être du chauffeur de taxi, l’espace du taxi oscille entre un non-lieu, au non non-lieu à une hétérotopie de déviance.

A vision for Franciscan life : an examination of the Third Order ruleSeiler, Martina Gertrud Anneliese 06 1900 (has links)
The dissertation is a critical reflection on the relevance of Franciscan spirituality over eight centuries with special focus on the Third Order Regular. This spirituality is rooted in the life and writings of St Francis and St Clare of Assisi and their experience of the kenotic Christ. The Franciscan charism prevails in the world today as a living response to God’s transforming love which is expressed in a ministry of loving service and solidarity with the poor and marginalised – re-enacting Francis’ radical conversion when he embraced the leper. The Third Order Regular, inspired by Vatican II which called for a return to the charism of religious founders, returned to its roots with the revised Rule of 1982 based on the writings of Francis and Clare and grounded in Sacred Scripture. The Rule’s vision corresponds with the 1996 document Vita Consecrata on consecrated life and its mission to be prophetic witnesses to Christ today. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / M.

Vilka länder får synas i engelskböckerna? : En undersökning hur engelskspråkiga länder framställs i läroböcker för årskurs tre / Which countries may appear in the English books? : An investigation of how English speaking countries are represented in textbooks for year three.Barkhem, Josefin January 2018 (has links)
This study investigates whether students of year three get the chance to learn about cultures in places and contexts where English is used, through textbooks. The focus is whether the diversity of the English speaking cultures is shown or if a western centered image dominates. Postcolonial theory is the base of the investigation. As an analysis method, content analysis has mostly been used but also critical discourse analysis. The results show that Great Britain is the country that is most frequently represented in all books, but also that in general few cultures are brought up or explained. The purpose of this study is to investigate how English speaking parts of the world and contexts are represented in English books for year three.
