An exploratory analysis of the process of differentiation in suburban teachers' perceptions of typical adolescents and delinquentsKrug, Ardith J. January 1973 (has links)
This thesis has explored the process whereby "delinquents” become perceptually differentiated from "typical adolescents" through a descriptive analysis of the differentiators and non-differentiators among a group of suburban Junior high school teachers.The instrument used to gather the data was a semi-structured questionnaire, consisting of three sections. The first two sections gathered personal and occupational information about the teachers. The third section attempted to elicit the evaluative direction of the teachers' perceptions of "typical adolescents" and "delinquents".The results of the analysis of the responses of the 66 teachers were presented. On the basis of the fourteen pro-selected social characteristics of the respondents, descriptions of the “differentiators” and “non-differentiators", as well as of the general population, were provided.

A taste of dreamsCrofts, Karen January 2009 (has links)
Masters Research - Master Creative Arts / Food, as a social signifier, is an important device in literature that has been used skilfully by writers like Woolf, Proust and Carver. My short story collection, A Taste of Dreams, employs food as a theme across the collection to reveal details about characters and the relationships between those who come together to cook and dine. The essay that follows examines suburban fiction and domestic routines including the preparation and consumption of food, food-related spaces such as the kitchen and dining table and the significance of meals beyond the food itself. Domestic fiction set in the Australian suburbs had a late and uncertain beginning. The image of the Australian bush and frontier dominated both art and literature through the nineteenth and early-twentieth centuries, well after the cities and suburbs were established. It was only after the Second World War, with the great postwar land boom, that artists and writers turned to the suburbs. Initially, this residential space, where the majority of Australians lived, was derided and spurned, viewed as homogeneous, status-oriented and uniformly conservative. Intellectuals attacked the architecture of the new landscape and concluded that the residents who bought into this lifestyle were conditioned by their streetscape. In the 1970s, new writers like Garner, Winton, Malouf and Updike emerged. They looked beyond the streetscape, front fence and lawns to reveal the details, the diversity and complexities of lives within the suburban milieu. Domestic situations were explored against a background of iconic symbols and signifiers—the backyard, shed, garage, bedroom, laundry and kitchen—to reveal the unique details of characters’ lives within the suburban home. A Taste of Dreams is a contribution to the genre of short story writing set in the Australian suburbs. Food links the stories and provides an avenue through which the reader can gain an understanding of the characters, their homes and their relationships.

Building 'community' :Bosman, Caryl Jane. Unknown Date (has links)
This research draws upon the writings of Michel Foucault and a range of governmentality texts to problematise those planning techniques and practices promulgated in an attempt to produce particular ideals of community. To accomplish this I have focused predominantly on the discourses pertaining to the Golden Grove Development. The histories I re-construct from these discourses demonstrate how ideals of community have been constituted and how they act as technologies of government. The goals of these governmental technologies, I argue, were the normalisation of particular suburban subjectivities, with the intent to maximise economic gains and minimise financial, temporal, spatial and social risks. In the discourses of the Golden Grove Development subjects are positioned as docile and self-disciplined individuals who are active in the government of their own conduct. This governmental practice was in accordance with the goals of the planners and developers of the suburban site. The pre-occupation with the production of ideals of community was one that was legislated by indenture. It was also a theme that the developers harnessed and developed to market and sell the development. / The resultant suburban landscapes reflect specific lifestyles which consequently alienate, limit or deny others. Ideals of community thus act as technologies of polarisation rather than as mechanisms to create a "e;cohesive community"e; which was a paramount objective in the planning discourses of the development. The Golden Grove Development emerged at a time when neo-liberal rationalities began to proliferate. Proponents of the project considered ideals of community to be fundamental to the financial and social success of the new suburban development. This is evident in key Golden Grove planning, marketing, development, legislative and business texts, which point to the actual production of particular ideals of community. The planning techniques and practices that underpinned these ideals were significant in the Golden Grove Development being ranked as a 'benchmark community' for the planning of other new residential developments across Australia. The histories of the new suburban development that I re-construct focus on how ideals of the 'good community' have been and continue to be produced, circulated and put into effect in some of the most significant Golden Grove 'community' sites. / I argue that the planners of the Golden Grove Development conceived 'community' as a phenomenon that was deterministically achievable, 'normal', 'good' and 'truthful'. My research disrupts these notions by analysing ideals of community as technologies of government. The aim of these studies is to acknowledge and contest suburban government and thereby open up other possibilities to think about techniques and practices of suburban planning. / Thesis (PhDPlanning)--University of South Australia, 2005.
