Exploring young black persons' narratives about the apartheid past / C.M. PetersenPetersen, Cheryl Marcelle January 2009 (has links)
The extant of available South African qualitative research which investigates issues of the post-apartheid youth appears to be diversified and increasing. A part of this corpus of research, seem to inform on post-apartheid identity formation. This current research explored the narrative forms located in the retellings of the apartheid past by 13 young black South Africans aged between 16 and 21. To this end, 68 different secondary narrative segments were obtained, by means of the analysed transcripts of in-depth interviewing, using a qualitative categorical-content framework. The data analysis yielded 12 themes, wherein the youth identified the primary narrators of the apartheid stories; contextualised settings and circumstances around narratives and explained apartheid social stratifications and treatment of black persons. They also conceptualized their understanding of apartheid laws and enforcement; explained apartheid experienced forms of loss and support; discussed apartheid education; talked about political figures and liberation; disclosed their own feelings about these stories; disclosed the impacts of stories on their own lives; considered the relevance of these narratives; stated what was learnt from it and provided a gauge of their interest in such stories. The findings suggest socially constructed second order narratives of racial hierarchies; marginalising the 'other'; vicarious experiences of affect; the incorporation of the logic of difference and a coexistence of tensions between these stories and present lifestyles. The research has located specific tones, imagery and themes within these narratives, which were duly incorporated in the metastory of this research. Recommendations were made concerning further research to be inclusive of youth from a wider racial and cultural spectrum, as well as investigation into aspects of non-interest and denialism about the apartheid past. / Thesis (M.A. (Research Psychology))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2010.

A Limited Review on the Condition of Multicultural Art Education over the Past DecadeYang, Gao 04 December 2006 (has links)
The articles that recorded multicultural art lessons in the US P-12 classrooms in School Arts during the past decade revealed the condition of US multicultural art education from three aspects. First, the teachers’ interest in multiculturalism has been stable in the past decade. Second, the lessons covered multiple cultures unequally. Among pluralistic US cultures, Native American culture was favored while Asian-American, Arab-American, and Muslim-American cultures were neglected. Among global cultures, Mexican and African cultures were represented most often. Only 12.4% of world countries were represented. Third, most multicultural art projects were stereotyped, though some innovative projects emerged. Many art teachers selected cultural content to teach based on classroom population and local culture. The art teachers tended to teach the meanings of US ethnic cultures better than global cultures. The alteration of cultural materials and techniques caused the loss or change of cultural meanings.

Coupled Thermo-Hydro-Mechanical-Chemical (THMC) Responses of Ontario’s Host Sedimentary Rocks for Nuclear Waste Repositories to Past and Future Glaciations and DeglaciationsNasir, Othman 10 October 2013 (has links)
Glaciation is considered one of the main natural processes that can have a significant impact on the long term performance of DGRs. The northern part of the American continent has been subjected to a series of strong glaciation and deglaciation events over the past million years. Glacial cycles cause loading and unloading, temperature changes and hydraulic head changes at the ground surface. These changes can be classified as transient boundary conditions. It is widely accepted that the periodic pattern of past glacial cycles during the Late Quaternary period are resultant of the Earth’s orbital geometry changes that is expected to continue in the future. Therefore, from the safety perspective of DGRs, such probable events need to be taken into account. The objective of this thesis is to develop a numerical model to investigate the thermo-hydro-mechanical-chemical (THMC) coupled processes that have resulted from long term past and future climate changes and glaciation cycles on a proposed DGR in sedimentary rocks in southern Ontario. The first application is done on a large geological cross section that includes the entire Michigan basin by using a hydro-mechanical (HM) coupled process. The results are compared with field data of anomalous pore water pressures from deep boreholes in sedimentary rocks of southern Ontario. In this work. The modeling results seem to support the hypothesis that at least the underpressures in the Ordovician formation could be partially attributed to past glaciation. The second application is made on site conditions by using the THMC model. The results for the pore water pressure, tracer profiles, permafrost depth and effective stress profile are compared with the available field data, the results show that the solute transport in the natural limestone and shale barrier formations is controlled by diffusion, which provide evidence that the main mechanism of transport at depth is diffusion-dominant. The third application is made on site conditions to determine the effect of underground changes in DGRs due to DGR construction. The results show that future glaciation loads will induce larger increases in effective stresses on the shaft. Furthermore, it is found that hypothetical nuclide transport in a failed shaft can be controlled by diffusion and advection. The simulation results show that the solute transported in a failed shaft can reach the shallow bedrock groundwater zone. These results might imply that a failed shaft will substantially lose its effectiveness as a barrier. The fourth application is proposed to investigate the geochemical evolution of sedimentary host rock in a near field scale. In this part, a new thermo-hydro-mechanical-geochemical simulator (COMSOL-PHREEQC) is developed. It is anticipated that there will be a geochemical reaction within the host rock that results from interaction with the water enriched with the CO2 generated by nuclear waste.

The Use Of Time As An Element Of Alienation Effect In Peter ShafferSeda, Ilter 01 June 2006 (has links) (PDF)
This thesis studies Peter Shaffer&rsquo / s use of time as a technique for creating alienation effect. In order to provide the audience with a questioning role, Shaffer primarily employs historical and mythical past as elements of pastness in the Brechtian sense. Shaffer also innovatively contributes to the formation of alienation effect with spatial time achieved through the coexistence of past and present. Distancing the audience in time, the playwright leads them to adopt a critical viewpoint so that they can question and reflect upon the psychological and metaphysical themes such as search for worship, existential disintegration and the eternal conflict between reason and instinct in his plays The Royal Hunt of the Sun, Yonadab, and The Gift of the Gorgon.

The present via the past : an archaelogical approach to analysing the design and use of a contemporary urban villageGarcia, Nicole January 2008 (has links)
This research applies an archaeological lens to an inner-city master planned development in order to investigate the tension between the design of space and the use of space. The chosen case study for this thesis is Kelvin Grove Urban Village (KGUV), located in inner city Brisbane, Australia. The site of this urban village has strong links to the past. KGUV draws on both the history of the place in particular along with more general mythologies of village life in its design and subsequent marketing approaches. The design and marketing approach depends upon notions of an imagined past where life in a place shaped like a traditional village was better and more socially sustainable than modern urban spaces. The appropriation of this urban village concept has been criticised as a shallow marketing ploy. The translation and applicability of the urban village model across time and space is therefore contentious.
KGUV was considered both in terms of its design and marketing and in terms of a reading of the actual use of this master planned place. Central to this analysis is the figure of the boundary and related themes of social heterogeneity, inclusion and exclusion. The refraction of history in the site is also an important theme. An interpretive archaeological approach was used overall as a novel method to derive this analysis.
