▼ The Union of Utrecht treaty (1579) established a confederation of Dutch provinces that previously had never formed a cohesive geographical or political entity. United mostly by a common enemy, this region and its inhabitants were soon in search of a common identity: a task that not only involved the consolidation of a varied range of locally defined power structures, but also that of a notably heterogeneous body politic. Mythic narratives regarding the nation’s ancient origins and heroic leadership and liberation were developed to provide an inspired cover for the political and religious strife living directly underneath its surface. To gain insight into the processes by which idealized notions of patria were evoked differently by competing factions in the Republic, this dissertation examines ceremonial receptions of military leaders and royal visitors that took place in Amsterdam during the first eight decades of the Dutch Republic (1580- 1660). I argue that these events and their representations in print functioned as platforms for the formation and contestation of emerging hierarchies, and ask to what political end various media such as performance, poetry and print were employed to help negotiate a new system of government, as well as sustain proto-nationalistic narratives and diplomatic efforts on behalf of the city. Seen through the lenses of urban space, print culture, cultural networks and cultural memory theory, this dissertation analyzes several ceremonial entries that took place in Amsterdam between 1580 and 1660. These are discussed in chronologically ordered chapters that trace how artistic and literary conventions were applied and transformed in relation to their immediate historic and political circumstances. In my first chapter I focus on the receptions of William of Orange (1533-1584) in 1580 and the Earl of Leicester (1533-1588) in 1586, taking place in the transitional period shortly before and after the Union of Utrecht (1581), as well as two triumphal entries of William’s son, Stadtholder Maurice (1567-1625) in 1594 and 1618. As I argue in this chapter, these entries demonstrate that a monarchical ceremonial language was used to explore, negotiate and legitimize the terms of a “mixed constitution” Republic, in which an aristocratic Captain-General (the Stadtholder) served the provinces and States-General. The joyous entries of the exiled Maria de' Medici (1575-1642), Queen-Mother of France, in 1638 and her daughter Henrietta Maria Stuart (1609-1669), Queen of England, in 1642, form the topic of my second and third chapter. I contend that these remarkable receptions utilized tropes of Dutch Republican progress and state-making to bolster the credibility of the young state on the international diplomatic stage, through alternative emphases on Amsterdam’s merchant regents and the House of Orange. In my fourth and last chapter, finally, I argue that the marriage politics of the Oranges effectively pressured Amsterdam to orchestrate two receptions of Orange-Nassau family members during the First…

Политичке науке - Теорија културе и студије културе / Political Science Theory of culture, Culture studies

Друштвену теорију почев од осамдесетих година прошлог века наовамо обележила је пролиферација литературе на тему моралне панике, ризика и ризичног друштва. Наука је појам ризика проблематизовала само делимично, док је појам страха готово у потпуности остао изван њеног домета, упркос томе што се све већи део друштвених дисциплина окреће изучавању питања безбедности и тероризма. Она ретка истраживања која се баве страхом пропуштају да уоче најважнију карактеристику колективног/друштвеног страха: да је такав тип страха увек конструисан, дакле, нужно политичке природе. Осим тога, друштвена теорија је деполитизовала страх тако што је уместо изучавања страха увела анализу ризика као реалне претње, за коју је практично немогуће наћи одговорне, будући да ризици постоје изван нашег поља деловања. Један од разлога ове деполитизације страха може се пронаћи у чињеници да се либерална демократија сматра неспојивом са намерним изазивањем страха, при чему наука једноставно не успева да освести како се колективни страх чак и у савременој демократији често (зло)употребљава као гарант политичког система, безбедности и легитимитета. У истраживању смо а) проблематизовали појам страха, доводећи га у везу са већ развијеним теоријским концептима као што су морална паника и ризично друштво; затим смо б) указали на начине на које се страх конструише и репродукује у друштву; након чега смо (в) испитали улогу структура моћи, али и медија у његовом конструисању и репродукцији. Истраживање је кроз анализу теорија о страху и ризику, почев од старогрчких мислилаца, преко класичних политичких теоретичара (Хобс, Макијавели) и просветитељских мислилаца (Токвил, Монтескје), па све до савремених истраживача (Фуреди, Арент, Клајн, Шклар), показало да дискурс ризика и страха стоји у служби прибављања легитимитета за политичке одлуке, односно, у служби политичких и корпоративних интереса, што теорија константно превиђа, уз ретке изузетке. Коначно, рад је показао да ризик и страх, насупрот увреженом мишљењу, не могу представљати кохезивну силу у постмодерном друштву, будући да се тај вид привремене и негативне солидарности заснива на искључивању маргиналних група, које се посматрају као непријатељ заједнице и њених вредности. Коначно, медијски сензационализам и спектакл представља механизам који проводи и репродукује дискурс ризика и култура страха. У студији смо развили теоријски апарат у оквиру критичко-културне парадигме, који је неопходан за разумевање политичког страха у савременим западним друштвима, а који је проверен на примеру два актуелна и повезана вида страха – на примеру страха од тероризма и миграната.

▼ This thesis is the first in-depth study of the politics of exposition in explicitly political, populist documentary, taking as case studies three pivotal documentaries of the Vietnam era - Emile de Antonio’s In the Year of the Pig (1968), Peter Davis’ Hearts and Minds (1973) and The Newsreel Film Collective’s Summer 68 (1969). Three different aesthetic approaches are linked by the filmmakers’ desire to undermine dominant representations of ‘the television war’ whilst consciously avoiding relegation to the art-house for fear of ‘preaching to the choir’. As such, the desire to reach as wide an audience as possible is continually offset by the politics of visual pleasure and documentary realism. This thesis offers an examination of how these tensions play out, termed here the dialectic of popular radicalism. These films’ political aesthetic can be mapped by examining their dialectical relationship to both mainstream entertainment and news services, as well as European modernism. This map will use the mechanics of each film’s metalanguage as its defining structure. Through a recalibration of Comolli and Narboni’s influential ‘Cinema/Ideology/Criticism’ (1969) - via the varied lenses of documentary, genre and Soviet film theory - a politicised understanding of Keith Beattie’s ‘documentary display’ will be produced. It is my contention that the dialectic between popular and radical sensibilities manifests in varying degrees of visibility of each film’s metalanguage, or textual ‘voice’, to use Bill Nichols’ 1981 formulation. This visibility is at the heart of these films’ political aesthetic. Solidifying Nichols’ conception of voice as the metalanguage of the popular political documentary provides a concrete means of understanding documentary realism in relation to rhetoric: rather than looking through documentary’s window onto the world, it draws focus onto the window itself. Taking lessons from Marxist aesthetic and film theory as well as the works themselves, this thesis encourages an antagonistic approach to traditional structures of representation in documentary, while taking into account the dynamic nature of aesthetic radicalism and the need for rhetorical intelligibility. If accepting cinema as a continuously evolving textual system necessitates the abandonment of static notions of classicism, it follows that we must also jettison those regarding documentary progressivity.

Magistrinio darbo objektas – manipuliacijos metodai. Darbo tikslas – identifikuoti ir aprašyti manipuliacijos metodų naudojimą televizijos debatuose, skirtuose 2009 metų Lietuvos Respublikos prezidento rinkimams. Darbo uždaviniai: • išanalizuoti, susisteminti ir aprašyti įvairių autorių išskirtus manipuliacijos metodus, suformuluoti jų apibrėžimus, išskirti indikacijas ir pateikti pavyzdžius; • identifikuoti manipuliacijos metodus, kuriuos panaudojo kandidatai į prezidentus, Lietuvos Respublikos prezidento rinkimams 2009 skirtose televizijos debatų laidose, apibendrinti ir pateikti jų naudojimo tendencijas. Išanalizavus įvairių autorių apibrėžimus apie manipuliaciją, galima teigti, kad manipuliacija naudojama kaip psichologinio poveikio priemonė, siekiant atimti iš žmogaus galimybę savarankiškai priimti sprendimą. Išnagrinėjus įvairių autorių pateiktus aprašymus apie manipuliacijos metodus, naudojant lyginamąjį metodą, pagal panašius bruožus buvo atrinkti ir sugrupuoti skirtingų autorių aprašymai apie tą patį metodą. Taikant dedukcijos metodą, buvo išskirti kiekvienos manipuliacijos metodų grupės esminiai požymiai ir suformuluoti jų apibrėžimai bei išskirtos indikacijos. Apžvelgus įvairių autorių mintis apie politinę komunikaciją, pateikiamos išvados, kad politinėje komunikacijoje labai svarbią vietą užima rinkimai. Kiekvieni rinkimai tampa nauju politikų ir rinkėjų tarpusavio aiškinimosi aktu, o manipuliacija yra pagrindinė priemonė, naudojama rinkiminėje kovoje. Mūsų... [toliau žr. visą tekstą]

The object of the MA paper is manipulation methods. The aim is to identify and describe the use of manipulation methods in the TV debates on the Lithuanian presidential election held in 2009. The goals are: • To analyze, systemize and describe manipulation methods distinguished by various authors, give the definitions, distinguish indications and give examples; • To identify and summarize the use of the manipulation methods in the TV debates on the Lithuanian presidential election in 2009 and adduce the tendencies of the methods used. Having analyzed the definitions of manipulation given by various authors, it can be claimed that manipulation is used as a measure of psychological impact in order to preclude a person from an independent decision making. Having studied the descriptions of manipulation methods by various authors using the comparative method, the descriptions of the same methods by various authors have been selected and grouped under similar features. Using the deductive method the key features of every manipulation method group have been pointed out, their descriptions have been formulated and indications have been distinguished. Having reviewed various authors’ ideas about political communication, the conclusions that election plays an important role in the political communication have been made. Every election becomes a feud between politicians and electors and manipulation is the main measure used in the election fight. Our opinions, attitudes and beliefs are... [to full text]

▼ What is spectacle? How does performance spectacle reflect the ethos of a locale, a region, a nation? This dissertation compares the life experiences and performance spectacles of two regionally distinct Egyptian performance communities from their respective local markets and roles within national discourses, to their spectacles on international stages. Their experiences, under neo-conservative conditions that have rendered performance culture morally suspect, speak to increasingly contentious issues of identity and memory, morality and political economy in Egypt's quickly transforming society. Since the 1970s, increasing moral and religious conservatism in Egypt has given rise to political spectacles and national debates that are concerned with authentic Egyptian culture, identity and politics. During the same period, performers from Muhammad ^cAli Street in Cairo, compelled by diminishing local markets, have come to perform in bellydance orchestras in nightclubs catering to Gulf Arab tourists, while folkloric musicians from Luxor, in the south, perform before European world music audiences. Drawing on performance theory and cultural Marxism, I argue that, despite genre and audience differences, both groups are commoditized as exotic Egyptian spectacles by virtue of their marketed cultural, geographical and ideological displacements. Secondly, these spectacles invoke images and associations that symbolically reassert historical and continuing legacies of domination over Egypt. Third, local perspectives suggest that nightclub spectacles, which violate the neo-conservative gender ideology, provoke moral and political antagonisms in Egypt, while further ostracizing performers. Cairene performers agonize between economic necessity and the moral stigma of nightclub performances before Gulf Arab men. Women performers find this especially difficult. Their struggle to reinterpret their identity vis-a-vis work likewise elucidates the dilemmas faced by many Egyptian women concerning work, family and honor. In contrast, the all-male Luxor musicians remain relatively unscathed by local scrutiny. Historical and comparative analyses reveal a north-south dialectic, fueled circulation of pejorative regional stereotypes associated with these performance communities, which influences local interpretations of national events and the government-Islamist conflict. The combined analyses of this dialectic and of performance spectacle shed light on the political spectacle of Islamists and provide a framework for better understanding the national debates currently reshaping Egyptian culture and politics.

▼ This work reimagines autonomy in the age of spatial enclosure. Rather than proposing a new version of the escapist running to the hills, "Escape" aligns the desire for disappearance, invisibility, and evasion with the contemporary politics of refusal, which poses no demands, resists representation, and refuses participation in already-existing politics. Such escape promises to break life out of a stifling perpetual present.The argument brings together culture, crisis, and conflict to outline the political potential of escape. It begins by reintroducing culture to theories of state power by highlighting complementary mixtures of authoritarian and liberal rule. The result is a typology of states that embody various aspects of conquest and contract: the Archaic State, the Priestly State, the Modern State, and the Social State. The argument then looks to the present, a time when the state exists in a permanent crisis provoked by global capitalist forces. Politics today is controlled by the incorporeal power of Empire and its lived reality, the Metropolis, which emerged as embodiments of this crisis and continue to further deepen exploitation and alienation through the dual power of Biopower and the Spectacle. Completing the argument, two examples are presented as crucial sites of political conflict. Negative affects and the urban guerrilla dramatize the conflicts over life and strategy that characterize daily existence in the Metropolis. Following a transdisciplinary concern for intensity, the work draws from a variety of historical, literary, cinematic, and philosophical examples that emphasize the cultural dimension of politics. The wide breadth of sources, which range from historical documents on the origins of the police, feminist literature on the politics of emotion, experimental punk film, and Deleuze and Guattari's nomadology, thus emulates the importance of force over appearance found in contemporary radical politics. Departing from many of the accounts of political change given by political theory or sociology, "Escape" shows how the recent politics of autonomy is essential to understanding the struggle against Empire.

▼ A direct democracy initiative that placed restrictions on bilingual education was codified into the California Education Code by the passage of Proposition 227 in 1998. This initiative attempted to address the problem of educating the current 1.4 million English learners enrolled in public schools who continue to lag behind native-English-speaking students academically (California Department of Education, 2013; Umansky & Reardon, 2014). This study focused on policy entrepreneurs in relation to Proposition 227 – both proponents and opponents of the Proposition – and the political strategies they employed to garner support for their preferred policies via the mass media. Research shows the attention newspapers give to education, including language education policy, can influence the education of immigrant students and ELs (Wright, 2005). The methodological approach employed to study the political language used by policy entrepreneurs, interpretive policy analysis, and the guiding conceptual framework, political spectacle, aligned well to help uncover and understand the generation of meaning(s) by policy entrepreneurs and media around Proposition 227. Political spectacle is constructed via the language and images the media use when presenting political views and often serves to distort public policies and maintain the status quo (Edelman, 1988). An in-depth media study was conducted that included data from California newspapers covering three regions across the state and videos downloaded from a popular social media site. Findings revealed spectacle around Proposition 227 including the use of symbolic language to depict bilingual education as a failure, the casting of immigrant students as objects, and the enactment of dramatic actions that benefited the policy entrepreneurs rather than the immigrant students. The study also revealed Proposition 227 to exemplify the joining of three streams – problem, policy, and political – which opened a window through which the authors of Proposition 227 were able to push their policy (Kingdon, 1995). The study suggests that attending to the political language used by policy entrepreneurs can shed light on the political strategies that work to convey influential policy messages via the media. This insight should aid in the development of more effective and equitable language education policies in the future.
