First-millennium agriculturist ceramics of the Eastern Cape, South Africa : an investigation into some ways in which artefacts acquire meaning

Steele, John 11 1900 (has links)
Artefacts acquire/embody migratory meanings according to contexts of raw material manipulation, use, discard and discourse. First-Millennium Agriculturist ceramics and concomitant private and public significances/use values are placed within aspects of a deep past Stone Age history of space and artefact usage in the Eastern Cape, South Africa. Some thought paradigms and cultural contexts are examined as having directly influenced discourse, what artefacts were foregrounded, and in which manner writers of southern African prehistory considered them. Thereafter ceramic artefacts and associated technologies are focussed upon as being intimate to personal/ community lifeways and worldviews. Domestic and ceremonial utilityware, figurines and masks, as well as clay usage in homebuilding and metalworking, and urges to apply a mark to malleable clay, or deliberately alter and/or bury ceramic artefacts; are explored as manifestations of medium and usage well suited to regularly reconfigured meanings . / Art History, Visual Arts & Musicology / M.A. (Art History)

South Africa’s peaceful use of nuclear energy under the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and related treaties

Qasaymeh, Khaled Ahmed 02 1900 (has links)
Text in English / Energy is the natural power stored in matter which can be potential and kinetic energy. This occurs in nature in various forms such as chemical energy, thermal energy, electromagnetic radiation, gravitational energy, electric energy, elastic energy, nuclear energy, and rest energy. The scientific research relating to nuclear energy has revealed that atoms are the foundation of matter. In 1905 Albert Einstein initiated the quantum revolution utilising the Newtonian mass-energy equivalence concept in order to put his famous equation: E =mc2, where energy is (E). This facilitated the nuclear research which focused on manufacturing the first atomic bomb. In 1945 the USA acquired its first two atomic bombs which were dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, killing 200 000 people; mostly civilians. But nuclear energy research has been redirected by scientists in order to industrialise nuclear technology in order to address growing power needs. This encouraged policy makers to consider the risks posed by utilising nuclear energy for civil purposes. The shift towards peaceful nuclear energy applications has been motivated by the many valuable contributions to humankind which nuclear energy offers - for instance in the fields of energy generation, human health, agriculture and industry. The nature of nuclear energy lends itself to becoming an important component of the world energy and global economic system. Nuclear energy is a viable option for many countries including South Africa, because it offers an economic and clean source of electricity; the primary engine for socio-economic development. South Africa operates the only two nuclear power reactors in Africa, (Koeberg 1 and Koeberg 2) generating 1.8 GWe. South Africa’s energy supply infrastructure consists fundamentally of coal-fired power plants which pose serious threats to the environment. Therefore, it is assumed that the planned 9.6 GW of new nuclear capacity by 2030 will meet the requirements of South Africa’s policy regarding the diversification of available energy resources to secure energy supply, support economic growth, and contribute to environmental management. Consequently, the legal system which governs nuclear energy programme is intended to prohibit the proliferation of nuclear weapons, ensure security and maintain the safe operation of nuclear facilities. / Public, Constitutional, & International Law / LL.D.

Student-led cell group ministry as 'n model vir jeugbediening / Student-led cell group ministry as a model for youth ministry

Nel, Adriaan Marthinus 06 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / Die een biljoen tieners wereldwyd (Borgman 1997:3) is nie meer dieselfde as 'n paar jaar gelede nie, maar raak daagliks moeiliker om te bereik. 'n Generasie wat wereldburgerskap ontvang het en deur die Televisie vermaak en die Media beinvloed word. Jongmense, skrikkerig vir "commitment", nie anti-godsdiens nie, maar soekend om te bepaal watter een die regte God is. Die kerk het vir die Millennium generasie tieners "boring" geraak want weekliks word hulle vermaak. Die uitdaging vir jeugbedienings lê daarin dat hierdie moderne tiener uit hulle geestelike verveeldheid uitgehelp sal word sodat hulle iets kan begin doen met dit wat hulle vir jare al weet. Die Tienerleier selgroep model is gerig op die verstaan van Millennium tieners en hulle geestelik te help groei. Met die oop steel in gedagte word elke tiener wat Jesus Christus as 'n werklikheid ontdek het gemotiveer om hierdie werklikheid met 'n ander tiener te gaan deel. / The one billion teenagers in the world (Borgman 1997:3) today are very different than a few years ago. The process to reach them with the Gospel is recently more difficult than ever. As citizens of the Global village they enjoy the entertainment on television and dress in the way the media proclaims. Modern youth are scared of commitment, not really anti-religion but searching for the true God. The youth of today look to the church to show them something, no, SOMEONE but instead the church became boring to them. We need to help them step out of their own boredom and do something with what they know (Hutchcraft 1996:168). With the focus on spiritual growth, and the vacant chair to remind them of their lost friends, the student-led cell group model can be one of the most effective strategies for reaching and serving the teenager of the next century. / Philosophy, Practical & Systematic Theology / M.

Conditional Truths: Remapping Paths To Documentary 'Independence'

Lang, Ian William, n/a January 2003 (has links)
(Synopsis to introductory statement): An introductory statement to five documentary films made by Ian Lang in Australia between 1981 and 1997 exemplifying  a 'democratising' model of sustainable and ethical documentary film production. This document critically reflects on the production process of these films to accompany their submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Publication at Griffith University. It finds that a contemporary tendency towards 'post-industrial' conditions allows an observational film-maker to negotiate a critical inter-dependence rather than a romantically conceived 'independence' traditional to the genre. [Full thesis consists of introductory statement plus six DVD videodiscs.]

Aféra Spiegel z roku 1962 a krize kolem České televize na přelomu let 2000/2001 pohledem vybraných konceptů demokratické konsolidace / The Affair "Spiegel" from 1962 and the Czech Television-Crisis from the turn of 2000 and 2001 in Perspective of Selected Concepts of Democratic Consolidation

Benda, Marek January 2016 (has links)
This master thesis deals with the affair Spiegel from 1962 and the Czech Television-Crisis from the turn 2000 and 2001. Both cases are compared by the conceptual approach of democratic consolidation from the Juan Linz's and Alfred Stepan's work The Problems of Democratic Transition and Consolidation (Baltimore, 1996). The analysis aims to find out whether German Federal Republic in 1962 and the Czech Republic on the start of the third millennium fulfilled the first three Linz's and Stepan's criteria of a consolidated democracy. The theoretical chapter highlights some of alternative approaches and discussions about democratic consolidation as an analytical tool in comparative politics.
