'Safe' Schools: Safe for Who?: Latinas, 'Thugs', and Other Deviant Bodies

Vivanco, Paulina A. 14 December 2009 (has links)
This analysis is concerned with the spatially-anchored hierarchies of power that organize Ontario’s current schooling model. Using the experiences of four young Latina girls, it questions how current school safety discourses function as barriers to educational success, vis-à-vis their role in reconfiguring these students’ identities through narratives of danger, menace, and unruliness. Specific safety and security related practices are explored as sites through which marginalized students are produced as dangerous bodies who are undeserving of full educational opportunities. It is argued that these practices (as manifest in current approaches to surveillance, policing, discipline and punishment, and the restriction of educational mobility) all work to produce the school space as dominant space. Rather than offering youth the opportunity to overcome inequalities, schools and education instead play a definitive role in their continued propagation by sanctioning the control, containment, and eviction of those who are deemed to be deviant.

Vznik Státního úřadu pro věci církevní / Establishment of the State Bureau of Church Affairs

Majerová, Tereza January 2020 (has links)
This thesis deals with state Church policy from the end of the World War II, with emphasis on the gradual seizure of power by the communist party and the process of systematic oppression of Church which resulted in passing the so-called Church laws and creation of the State bureau of Church affairs in 1949. The goal of the thesis is to map the relationship between the state and Church, to relate the systemic and administrative changes in the political and religious context which resulted in the State bureau of Church affairs representing the peak of state Church oppression. Keywords Catholic Church; Czechoslovakia; Communism; state and church; systemic oppression

En quête de non-binarité : regards filmés sur les films qui nous montrent

Joyau, Camille 08 1900 (has links)
Mémoire en recherche-création / Les films produits par les grandes compagnies de l’industrie cinématographique permettent de représenter des identités multiples à travers les personnages mis en scène, et de les diffuser largement auprès de publics diversifiés (chaines de télévision, cinéma, plateformes de diffusion en ligne). Ce travail de recherche-création se penche sur les représentations dans le cinéma dit « grand public » des identités de personnes s’identifiant en marge de la binarité de genre, et particulièrement à la visibilité des personnes s’identifiant comme non-binaires. Je constate en effet un manque en matière de représentations d’identités transgenres et non-binaires dans les films et séries « mainstream », par rapport à ma propre expérience de la diversité des identités dans les communautés queer et LGBTQ+. Pour prendre en compte les impressions de personnes aux identités de genre diverses, j’ai enregistré et filmé neuf entretiens réalisés auprès de personnes de mon entourage par la plateforme Zoom, afin d’utiliser leurs témoignages dans mon travail de recherche. Iels m’apportent leurs avis, leurs expériences et leurs références filmiques que j’utilise en complément de recherches théoriques issues des études féministes, des études de genres et des travaux propres à certaines communautés étudiant les rapports de pouvoirs qui s’exercent contre elleux (Crip Studies, Trans Studies, Black Studies principalement). Je m’attarde sur les exemples de représentations dans certains des films et d’une série cité.es en entretien. J’analyse également les représentations de personnages et le langage employé, en les confrontant au discours des communautés touchées par ces représentations. J’ai réalisé à partir des entretiens filmés un montage de certains passages illustrant l’importance pour chacun.e des participant.e.s de voir des représentations d’identités diversifiées et de la place qu’iels trouvent — ou non — dans les représentations existantes. / Movies produced by main companies in the film industry make it possible to represent multiple identities through the characters shown, and to spread them widely to diverse audiences (through television channels, movie theatres, online broadcasting platforms). In this research-creation project, I look at the representations in so-called “main stream” movies of people’s identities identifying outside of a gender binary, and in particular the visibility of people identifying as non-binary. I see a lack of representation of transgender and non-binary identities in mainstream films and series, compared to my own experience with the diversity of identities in queer and LGBTQ+ communities. To take into account the impressions of people within a wide range of gender identities, I recorded and filmed through Zoom discussions with nine persons from my close environment, in order to use their testimonies in my research work. In those discussions, they share their opinions, their experiences and their movie references for me to use as a complement to theoretical research in fields such as feminist studies, gender studies and community-specific work studying power relations against them (mainly Crip Studies, Trans Studies, Black Studies). I then linger on examples provided by the characters taken from some of the films and a Tv serie quoted in the interviews. I analyze some of the linguistic expressions used in these films as well as the representations of the characters, in order to compare them to the actual speeches of the communities affected by these representations. The interviews were edited as to form a collection of testimonies illustrating the importance for my interlocutors of finding faithful representations of their identities onscreen.

Particularly Responsible: Everyday Ethical Navigation, Concrete Relationships, and Systemic Oppression

Chapman, Christopher Stephen 20 August 2012 (has links)
In this dissertation, I articulate what I call a personal-is-political ethics, suggesting that the realm of human affairs long called ethics is inseparable from that which is today normatively called psychology. Further, I suggest that these names for this shared realm are situated in different discursive traditions which, therefore, provide different parameters for possible action and understanding. In my exploration of what it is to be human, I strategically centre ethical transgressions, particularly those that are mappable onto systemic forms of oppression. I explore personal-is-political enactments of sexism, ableism, racism, colonization, classism, ageism, and geopolitics, including situations in which several of these intersect with one another and those in which therapeutic, pedagogical, or parenting hierarchies also intersect with them. Without suggesting this is ‘the whole story,’ I closely read people’s narrations of ethical transgressions that they – that we – commit. I claim that such narrations shape our possibilities for harming others, for taking responsibility, and for intervening in others’ lives in an attempt to have them take responsibility (e.g., therapy with abuse perpetrators and critical pedagogy). I work to demonstrate the ethical and political importance of: the impossibility of exhaustive knowledge, the illimitable and contingent power relations that are ever-present and give shape to what we can know, and the ways our possibilities in life are constituted through particular contact with others. I explore ethical transgressions I have committed, interrogating these events in conversation with explorations of resonant situations in published texts, as well as with research conversations with friends about their ethical transgressions and how they make sense of them. I tentatively advocate for, and attempt to demonstrate, ways of governing ourselves when we are positioned ‘on top’ of social hierarchies – in order to align our responses and relationships more closely with radical political commitments.
