The turn to a 'neo-revivalist' religious identity as a form of 'self-othering'Naqvi-Sherazee, Aaliyeh January 2008 (has links)
This thesis investigates the turn to a neo-revivalist Muslim identity in the West as a form of self-othering. The binary dichotomy of self and other is used as a framework for the apparent divide between Muslims and the West. Second and third-generation disapora neo-revivalists personalise religion and through their hermeneutics seek an expression of religion that transcends cultural practice. They self-other in a way reactionary to society, and also react to the religion of their parents’ generation, which for them is not spiritual enough and instead is too steeped in cultural practices. Secularism and the post-secular turn is considered in Western society to provide context to the West that these neo-revivalists are located within. The diversity of Muslims is investigated to contextualise the neo-revivalist shift, which rather than being tolerant of diversity amongst Muslims seeks a separation of culture from religion. As second- and third-generation diaspora Muslims are the children of Muslim migrants to the West, the inter-generational divide is investigated. First-generation migrants have a continuity to their religious expression based on their experiences within the country of origin, whereas second- and third-generation migrants engage in a re-negotiation process to enable their religiosity to be relevant to Western societies. Qualitative case studies relating to the performance of religious identity, that is necessarily public, are utilised from Britain and the United States to further contextualise neo-revivalism. Literary mediation and mediatisation are examined in the context and globalisation. Contemporary literature is utilised to consider the self-critique of issues relating to integration and assimilation of Muslims in Western society by Muslims in Western societies. These cosmopolitan voices provide an internal understanding of the issues involved. Media-technologies have enabled a wide range of discourses to circulate about the current geopolitic following ‘9/11’ and Muslims themselves have utilised these mediated-technologies, and as such, neo-revivalism is necessarily a product of time, place and circumstance. Finally, a conclusion is reached and in seeking to understand the neo-revivalist turn and the place of Muslims in the West, a cosmopolitan ethic of integration is proposed that seeks to turn away from essentialisations and binary oppositions, but instead, through an engagement in respectful and reflexive critical dialogue, it is hoped that our shared universal humanity may be realised.

Previous issue date: 2012-02-27 / Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos / This doctoral thesis is part of the line of research Teaching and Learning Processes . The aim of this study was to discuss dialogical relations between the self and the other on the perspectives of the authors Bakhtin and Paulo Freire, in order to promote the practice of freedom within the school. We conducted this discussion including the concepts of ethics, aesthetics, ideology, consciousness and language. Both authors emphasize the historical, subjective and ideological character in the formation of the self and the other and the dialogical relations emphasizing the horizon of possibilities that constitutes them. We stress that the action of teaching can encourage the practice of listening in their training, as well as in the student s; it also brings forward the importance of the teacher in the learning how to read the world and the word, favoring the quest for transformation and freedom. We can notice that in the schooling process the reading and writing practice may allow us teachers and students, to become critics and show responsiveness, thus, to search for liberty and transformation. It was possible to be noticed, along our study, that the self is, in Freirean and Bakhtinian perspective, necessarily formed by the interaction with the other, an important relation in the formation of consciousness, ideology, and also of responsibility (ethics combined with aesthetics), that conceive different dialogical relations, without which they may not be, without a self, without an other. We were able to observe the different dialogical relations for Bakhtin and Paulo Freire which allow the formation of a self commited to an other, to the world, in search for freedom. We conducted the discussion on education, regarding specifically the role of the progressive educator in teaching, and the importance of literacy, the reading the world, the reading and writing words. Hopefully this study will contribute to understanding the relations between the self and the other, between the teacher and the student, within school and in life. / A presente tese de doutorado insere-se na linha de pesquisa de Processos de Ensino e de Aprendizagem. O objetivo dessa tese foi discutir as relações dialógicas e do eu e do outro nas perspectivas dos autores Bakhtin e Paulo Freire, no sentido de favorecer uma prática da liberdade no âmbito escolar. Realizamos essa discussão incluindo os conceitos de ética, estética, ideologia, consciência e linguagem. Ambos os autores destacam o caráter histórico, subjetivo e ideológico na formação do eu e do outro e das relações dialógicas, enfatizando o horizonte de possibilidades que os constitui. Destacamos que a ação docente pode incentivar a prática da escuta em sua formação e na do educando, bem como traz à luz a importância do docente na aprendizagem da leitura de mundo e da palavra, favorecendo a busca pela transformação e liberdade. Podemos perceber que no processo de escolarização a prática da leitura e da escrita pode permitir a nós professores e educandos que nos tornemos críticos e que tenhamos responsividade e assim, juntos façamos a busca pela liberdade e a transformação. Notamos ao longo de nosso estudo que o eu se forma necessariamente na perspectiva bakhtiniana e freireana pela interação com o outro, numa importante relação na formação da consciência, da ideologia, juntamente com a responsabilidade (ética aliada à estética), que concebem diferentes relações dialógicas, sem as quais não se fazem presentes sem um eu, sem um outro. Pudemos verificar as diferentes relações dialógicas para Bakhtin e para Paulo Freire que possibilitam a formação de um eu comprometido com um outro, com o mundo em busca da liberdade. Realizamos a discussão no âmbito da educação, especificamente em relação ao papel do educador progressista, no que se referia à prática do ensino, à importância da alfabetização, da leitura do mundo, da leitura e da escrita das palavras. Esperamos que com esse estudo possamos contribuir para a compreensão de como se dá a relação entre o eu e o outro, entre o educador e o educando no âmbito escolar e na vida.

The ancient notion of self-preservation in the theories of Hobbes and SpinozaJacobs, Justin B. January 2011 (has links)
Over the course of four sections this PhD examines the ways in which the Aristotelian, Stoic and Epicurean philosophers portray bodily activity. In particular, it argues that their claims regarding bodies' natural tendency to preserve themselves, and seek out the goods capable of promoting their well-being, came to influence Hobbes's and Spinoza's later accounts of natural, animal and social behaviour. The first section presents the ancient accounts of natural and animal bodily tendencies and explores the specific ways in which the Aristotelian, Stoic and Epicurean views on animal desires came to complement and diverge from each other. After investigating the perceived links between natural philosophy, psychology and ethics, the section proceeds to consider how the ancients used this 'unified' view of nature to guide their accounts of the soul's primary appetites and desires. Also examined is the extent to which civil society is portrayed as a means of securing the individual against others, and how Aristotelian philia, Theophrastian oikeiotês and Stoic oikeiōsis came to stand in opposition to the fear-driven and compact-based accounts of social formation favoured by the Epicureans. The second section considers how the ancient accounts of impulsive behaviour and social formation were received and diffused via new editions of ancient texts, eclectic readings of Aristotle, and the attempts of Neostoic and Neoepicurean authors to update and systematise those philosophies from the late sixteenth century onwards. The particular treatments of Hellenistic thought by authors such as Justus Lipsius, Hugo Grotius and Pierre Gassendi are considered in detail and are placed within the context of the growing trend to use Stoic and Epicurean thought to replace the authority of Aristotle in the areas of science, psychology, and politics. The final two sections are devoted respectively to considering the ways in which Hobbes and Spinoza encountered the Hellenistic accounts of bodies and demonstrating how these earlier accounts came to feature in each of their own discussions of bodily tendencies. Engaging with a wide range of their texts, each section develops the many nuances and contours that emerged as both writers developed and fine-tuned their accounts of bodily actions. This reveals the many ways in which the ancient accounts of self-preservation helped to unify large aspects of Hobbes's and Spinoza's own philosophical corpus, while equally showing how a well-developed account of bodily tendencies might challenge the scholastic worldview and expand further the boundaries of the so-called 'New Science'.

The impact of bionic prostheses on users' self-perceptions: A qualitative studyBretschneider, Maximilian, Meyer, Bertolt, Asbrock, Frank 18 March 2024 (has links)
Bionic devices for reestablishing or augmenting users' capabilities (e.g., bionic prostheses or exoskeletons) are becoming increasingly common. While prior research examined how such devices affect others' perceptions of their users, little is known about how these devices affect users' self-image and -perception, and the corresponding theory is scarce. To account for this gap, we conducted semi-structured interviews with users of bionic upper limb prostheses to obtain insights into their self- and meta-perceptions. Results of our qualitative analysis indicate that using bionic prostheses influences the social (self-) perception of bionics users in multiple ways, such that users describe themselves as being seen as more competent by others and treated differently after receiving the bionic prosthesis in comparison to simpler models. Results imply a somewhat complex dual identity among users in the sense that the bionic device instills competence, but disability-related feelings of stigma are present simultaneously. Despite being exploratory, our findings thus indicate that using bionic devices affects users' self-perception, stereotypes, and interpersonal perceptions. The ongoing proliferation of restoring devices and the introduction of augmenting technologies in future work contexts, for example, might thus have unintended social consequences that need to be accounted for.

SINNLIG (sensuous) in Beijing : towards an Artistic EthnographyÅsa, Back January 2018 (has links)
Projektet bygger på åtta veckors fältarbete på en oberoende teater i Peking våren 2017,baserat på antropologisk och konstnärlig metod. Det är ett försök att utveckla begreppet konstnärlig etnografi, samt tillämpa det praktiskt. I detta är konsten inte huvudsakligen en produkt eller en presentationsform, utan ett sätt att tänka, att förhålla sig till världen. Materialet består av fältanteckningar, video, foto, rörelsematerial, personliga berättelser, minnen av dofter, ljud och smaker och någonting så vagt som stämning – stadens tempo, känslan i en repsituation… Hur kan scenen förmedla en plats och dess människor? Kan jag levandegöra mina upplevelser så att de blir angelägna för någon annan än mig själv? Det praktiska arbetet utgör ett försök att besvara dessa frågor. Vilka bilder har vi, och vad ser vi när vi speglar oss i varandra? Vad betyder det att våra världar redan är sammanflätade? Spegeln som bild och lek, träder fram både som tema och metod. Begrepp som exotism, representation och mötet med den andre diskuteras, liksom växlingen mellan identifikation och främmandegörande (”othering”) som en grund för förståelse. Hur påverkas människors liv av Kinas snabba samhällsförändringar, balansgången mellan socialism och kapitalism? Och vilken roll har scenkonsten i detta? Här diskuteras frågor om yttrandefrihet, liksom relationen mellan politik och spelstil, så kallad ”fejk realism”. Frågorna knyts samman genom en diskussion om autenticitet, följd av en betraktelse om utanförskap, för att slutligen återvända till det personliga mötet, till en berättelse om kontaktsökande – om vänskap. / This project is based on eight weeks of fieldwork at an independent theatre in Beijing in the spring of 2017, based on anthropological and artistic methods. It is an attempt to develop the concept artistic ethnography, and apply it practically. In this, art is seen not mainly as a product or a form of presentation, but as a way of thinking, of relating to the world. The material consists of field notes, video, pictures, movement material, personal stories, the memories of smells, sounds and tastes and of something as vague as atmosphere – the pace of the city, the feeling of a rehearsal situation... How can the stage render a place and its people? Can I bring my experiences to life, making them relevant for anybody else? The practical artistic work with an exposition is an attempt to answer these questions. What images do we have, and what do we see when we mirror each other? What does it mean that our worlds are already intertwined? The mirror as image and play appear both as a theme and a method. Concepts like exoticism, representation and the encounter with the other are discussed, as well as the movement between identification and othering, contributing to understanding. How are people’s lives affected by China’s rapid social changes, balancing between socialism and capitalism? What role do the performing arts have in this? Questions about freedom of expression are discussed, along with the relation between politics and styles of acting, the so called “fake realism”. The research questions are tied together in a discussion of authenticity, to finally return to the personal encounter and a story of seeking contact, of friendship. / <p>Sinnlig - the movie finns länkad dels i dokumentet och dels som egen fil</p> / Movit –Direction and Dramaturgy of movement based Performing Arts

SelbstbezeichnungBoger, Mai-Anh 08 May 2023 (has links)
Der Begriff der ‚Selbstbezeichnung‘ gewann seine Bedeutung und Bedeutsamkeit zunächst in politischen Kontexten. Um ihn an theoretische Konzepte anschlussfähig zu machen, werden im Folgenden probeweise zwei Differenzierungen vollzogen, die sich im weiteren Verlauf jedoch beide wieder aufheben.

Adult friendship and the boundaries of marriageDunstan, Lynn Valerie 11 1900 (has links)
Four core themes characterised this study: (a) adult
friendship, particularly across the gender line, (b) the
association between friendship and psychological well-being,
(c) the role of attachment in friendship processes, and (d)
the influence of the boundaries of marriage on friendship.
Twenty six individuals were included in the initial research
and 19 subjects participated in the main study. Theoretical
principles of social cognition, constructive alternativism
and attachment guided the collection and interpretation of
data, which was collated, interpreted and then presented in
case-study format. Self-with-other representation played a
major role in data interpretation.
Investigation into the structure and processes of friendship
revealed it to be a complex and fragile relationship, defined
both idiosyncratically and existentially, as well as
by specific distinguishing features, such as trust, loyalty
and intimacy .
Attachment orientation and positive friendship experiences
were noted as being contributory to the sense of interpersonal
intimacy associated with feelings of well-being.
Positive association was registered between 'secure' attachment
orientation and self-ratings of well-being and
happiness. Opposite-sex friendship emerged as an exclusive
relational type, both similar to, and different from, samesex
friendship and romantic love relationships. Its ambiguous
role is evidently compounded by the latent sexuality in
heterosocial relationships. Respondents reported cases of
opposite-sex friendships metamorphosing into romantic love
relationships and, less frequently, vice versa.
Manifest in attachment and relational mental models, marital
boundaries can facilitate or inhibit friendship. On both
direct- and meta-perspective levels, securely-attached
respondents were relatively accepting of opposite-sex
friendships within a marital context. Insecurely-attached
subjects tended to construe them as threatening to the
marital reality. Responses to this threat varied:
avoidantly-attached individuals used ego-protective
mechanisms such as denial and repression, whereas · the
anxious-ambivalent attachment orientation seemed more
closely associated with feelings of mistrust and jealousy,
expressed through anger and anxiety.
Personal boundary structure plays an incisive role ln adult
friendship. Thick-boundaried personalities seemed particularly
conscious of preserving marital identity. They were
more territorial with regard to friendships within the
marital context, and more conscious of social rules pertaining
thereto. / Psychology / D. Litt. et Phil. (Psychology)
