▼ This dissertation examines dominant cultural beliefs about human-animal relations and the challenge to this ideology posed by animal rights activists. Through an analysis of the conversion narratives of vegan animal rights activists, the dynamics of socialization and re-socialization are considered against the backdrop of a culture that harbors contradictory, contested, and changing views regarding the acceptable treatment of nonhuman animals. The political ideology, beliefs, and worldview of animal rights activists will be examined, and the process of conversion to a vegan animal rights perspective and lifestyle, which is usually punctuated by dramatic turning points, will also be considered. How does a person become an animal rights activist? How does a routinized activity like meat eating, which achieves taken-for-granted status for most members of American culture following the completion of the normal socialization program, come to be seen as an arbitrary, problematic, and amoral convention? The construction of an alternative sense of morality regarding the human-animal relationship and the redefinition of conventional boundaries will be examined in light of what is often a gradual process of identity transformation. The effect of the identity shift on personal relationships and social interactions will also be considered.

▼ This research project uses practical work and a supporting text to explore activism in contemporary art. Its chief concern is to consider what constitutes an activist art practice by clarifying the terms of engagement of such work. In the textual part of this submission the production of recent and contemporary artists who are widely presumed to make activist art has been examined. Their different approaches have been identified and critical evaluations of them have been offered. The artists under review include Christian Boltanski, Agnes Denes, Hans Haacke, Thomas Hirschhorn, Edward Kienholz, Doris Salcedo, and others. The analysis differentiates between them on the basis of their success as activist artists. Broadly speaking, two major strands of effective activism are identified. The first provides the audience/spectator with an understanding of their complicity in situations which are not clear-cut, where ethical standards are in conflict and where the perception of issues and solutions remains occluded. This kind of activism refuses any kind of programmatic clarity and encourages its viewer/recipient to acknowledge their moral and epistemological confusions. Although it may make use of local and particular circumstances and events its overall message transcends them and it is theoretically transportable to other sites without loss of impact. The second strand of activism is designed to work with maximum impact in highly localised situations, drawing on very particular shared experiences in tightly circumscribed locations. This kind of activist art, unlike the first, cannot be removed from its exact social and political context without loss of meaning. It is the contention of the thesis that successful activist art, in either strand, is very difficult to achieve and that much of what passes as activist art is flawed, either because it is crudely propagandic or because it is too opaque for the public to respond to it. The critical framework outlined in the textual submission is the matrix within which the practical element of this submission should be considered. The work submitted for examination extends the idea of activism as a means of making tangible the political and ethical confusions of everyday life. It is designed to be eye-catching , alluring and domineering, using scale, materials and iconography to encourage close inspection. The practical work offers the spectator a sculptural environment in which news reports, memories, moral beliefs, cultural stereotypes and historical markers are put in play. It is intended to provoke reflection, to linger in the memory, precisely because it cannot be categorised or assimilated easily as a simple message.

▼ The practices of Canadian mining companies operating in Latin America, and the Canadian government’s role in supporting these practices, have been duly criticized for the blatant social, environmental, and economic injustices created and perpetuated by transnational mining. The violation of human and Indigenous rights has elicited widespread resistance to mining from surrounding communities. A considerable amount of literature has explored the dynamics of this anti-mining
activism, with most articles exploring a particular case study or feature of a few cases. However, a region-wide systematic synthesis of qualitative themes on the topic has not been found. Given the extent and nature of Canadian mining companies operating Latin America, the purpose of this project was to scope the published literature to characterize the nature of community resistance to Canadian transnational mining in Latin America.
A scoping review method was employed to systematically search the literature, select studies for inclusion, chart qualitative data, and synthesize the literature reviewed. After screening, 61 articles discussing a total of 26 conflicts were included in this review. Conflicts in several Latin American countries with various Canadian mining companies were represented in this literature. In 69 percent of conflicts, the literature explicitly states the involvement of Indigenous groups in anti-mining resistance. Seventy-three percent of communities in the 26 conflicts were involved in agricultural livelihood activities. Sixty-five percent of conflicts occurred during the exploration stages of mining with all but one of these communities expressing complete rejections of mining, while 27 percent of conflicts occurred during the exploitation stages of mining with all of these communities seeking to change the conditions under which mining occurred. Communities had several interrelated concerns about mining that motivated their resistance, and used a variety of tactics to enact their
activism. Furthermore, only five of 61 articles discussed at length the gendered dimensions of resistance, providing insights into gendered adversities, narratives, and tactics of resistance, and revealing a need for a gendered lens in the study of anti-mining movements. The literature reveals promising and important insights as well as clear gaps in research on the complexity and nuances of anti-mining movements in Latin America.

▼ This thesis focuses on the Kurdish people of Turkey, who have struggled and advocated for a separate nation-state of their own. The Turkish state’s denial of Kurdish identity, and its heavy assimilation and oppression of the Kurdish people have turned some Kurds into political activists, both in Turkey and in the diaspora. In addition, the historical ban and current stigmatization of the Kurdish language have crystallized the importance and centrality of the language, particularly for both Kurdish identity and the Kurdish movement. This thesis explores the forms of political activism in Canada of the Kurds originating in Turkey, and the role of the Kurdish language in their activism. Using a qualitative research design, interviews with activists and participant observations were conducted in the cities of Toronto and Montréal. The findings draw attention to the significance of community centres as umbrella institutions for political activism, and as sites for the enactment of different forms of collective resistance. The study also illustrates that the role of the Kurdish language in activism is more salient at a representational level. That is, the Kurdish language is represented as the main identity marker fuelling activism, implying that speaking Kurdish is an act of resistance and thus political. In daily life, however, the usage of the Kurdish is far more attenuated and nuanced.

▼ U.S.-based queer theory began with an explicit ethical agenda tied inseparably to real-world politics and activism. Key scholars Eve Sedgwick, Judith Butler, Michel Foucault and Gayle Rubin proposed that the political potentiality of queer lay in the ‘way of life’ and affective and relational virtualities it could bring about, and not as a progressivist movement defined by its radicalism in opposition to movements ‘past’ (especially feminism and gay and lesbian politics).
In this thesis I argue that the translation of this ethical agenda has been problematic within theoretically-informed queer activist collectives in Sydney and Melbourne. These collectives are often plagued by intra-group conflict and feelings of ostracisation and exclusion. For example, this is exemplified in the activist practice of ‘calling out’ which shuts down rather than opens up the possibility of ethical movement towards other bodies, and productive encounters with difference. This then produces alienation amongst some members on account of not sharing the ‘dominant’ queer position on a number of issues covered in this thesis: from gay marriage debates to contemporary manifestations of the ‘feminist sex wars’. The thesis traces the historical contexts and precedents for these debates, notably U.S.-based queer theory, and the particularly conservative political context out of which it arose and that gave rise to its often polemical mode of address.
I argue for a more ‘ethical’ ways of being in collectivity with other bodies that encourage productive connection rather than diminution of those bodies involved. In this I draw on case studies such as the RuPaul’s Drag Race (2009-) and Wicked Women communities as examples of difficult but productive encounters with antagonism that suggest new, productive paths for an ethics of localised queer activism.

▼ In 2014, a series of shocking and seemingly random acid attacks against women took place in the Iranian city of Esfahan. The attacks by unknown assailants sparked widespread reactions from the public, outside commentators, and especially social and political activists focused on women‘s issues. Subsequently, the tragic event also prompted thousands of people to take to the streets to protest the violence and demand the authorities to secure women‘s safety in the public spaces.
Drawing on historical and media research along with semi-structured in-depth interviews, this thesis investigates how the wave of acid attacks managed to inspire subsequent mass political mobilizations. Situating the Esfahan acid attacks within the historical and political history of Iran, this thesis suggests that heterogeneous forms of women‘s rights activism cannot be viewed as simply pro-Western or Islamic. Drawing on the detailed analysis of the post-revolutionary history, this thesis shows how women‘s rights and bodily presence in public space in Iran have often played a central role in contemporary political mobilizations. In that sense, protests generated by the Esfahan incident represent a continuation of the long history of politicization of women‘s bodies, which continues to take new forms to this day.

▼ This thesis aims to examine the role of the movement for the international recognition of the 1988 massacre of political prisoners in Iran, and the impact of their activities on the development of the case within international human rights institutions. When the massacre took place in 1988, international responses were limited, however, nowadays it seems to be receiving newfound attention within human rights fora such as the Human Rights Council. Central to this thesis is identifying how this newfound attention has come into existence. Firstly, it looks at whether it can indeed be established that the massacre is receiving more recognition now, than when it took place 30 years ago. Secondly, it conducts an analysis of the development of the 1988 movement, arguing that the movement was able to influence the recognition through years of professionalization and the exercise of their own agency. Thirdly, it looks at the close interdependence of Iranian activists in exile, and Iranian activists who remain inside Iran, attributing the movement’s impact to their close cooperation.

▼ Within the historically conservative city of Córdoba, Argentina, LGBTQ
activism has grown in the past year during a period in which the movement has achieved significant advances nationwide. This thesis examines how a new LGBTQ organization, Encuentros por la Diversidad en Córdoba, formed its identity by creating boundaries between itself and other organizations in Argentina through a frame of diversity and horizontalism, in which members have an equal opportunity to participate. While the group was able to maintain diversity through its activities, its attempts to create and follow a horizontal structure were not successful. Because of this failure, hierarchies based on members’ social and political capital developed within the group, despite the organization’s commitment to equality.

▼ Given the increasing anti-immigrant rhetoric, sentiment, and policy advocacy, it is important to understand the development, maintenance, and power of undocuactivism, which is the mobilization of undocumented immigrants. Through in-depth interviews, physical and virtual fieldwork, archival online research, analysis of social media and protest art, as well as the use of history, critical theory, law, and interdisciplinary literature, this qualitative study examines the experiences and agency of Latina/o undocuactivists. In this study, undocuactivists are defined as undocumented immigrant young adult activists who are no longer remaining in the shadows due to their lack of legal status in the U.S. and are fighting for the rights of all immigrants. The guiding research question is, "How do Latina/o undocuactivists understand and contest illegality?" Using an intersectional methodological and theoretical approach, I investigate the way that illegality shapes the identity and
activism trajectory of Latina/o undocuactivists. My findings reveal that Latina/o undocuactivists contest and resist illegality, which reflects a significant critique of the legal system and its power to construct oppressive social relations. At the same time, I find that Latina/o undocuactivists also see changes to the law as a means to expand their opportunities to claim citizenship, thus articulating a more aspirational role for the power of law. These counter-intuitive findings highlight the complexity of the legal system, intersectional identities, and community organizing. Additionally, my study highlights how and why the movement goals of Latina/o undocuactivist extend beyond the fight for the DREAM Act, a federal legislation that if passed, would allow eligible undocumented immigrants who pursue a higher education and/or enlist in the military access to a pathway to legalization. Based on their evolving movement goals, Latina/o undocuactivists are dismantling the narrative of the "good" versus "bad" immigrant while engaging in political lobbying, protest, and civil disobedience. In spite of facing serious risks of arrest and deportation while engaging in the aforementioned mobilizing efforts, I find that Latina/o undocuactivists are shifting the immigrant rights movement and witnessing the power of mobilizing to create social change. Indeed, understanding the experiences of Latina/o undocuactivists reveals key pathways by which historically castigated and stigmatized social groups are capable of using the legal system to rectify and potentially reverse their prescribed positions in society. While much theoretical and empirical work has been devoted to the civil rights efforts of African Americans in the Jim Crow era, Latina/o undocuactivists force a new framework for studying social movements in a so-called "post-racial" America. Therefore, this study will contribute to Latina/o sociology, immigration, education, socio-legal studies, and social movements.

▼ The purpose of this study was to examine the
activism experiences of Black women graduate students. Understanding how these women defined
activism in their terms, as well as factors that influenced their
activism, were important topics for investigation. This qualitative investigation employed a phenomenological approach to "discover and describe the meaning or essence of participants' lived experiences, or knowledge as it appears to consciousness" (Hays & Singh, 2014, p. 50). The conceptual framework used for this study was Black feminist thought, expressly the dimensions of Black women's
activism (Collins, 2009). One dimension of the framework is struggles for group survival which consist of daily actions within Black women’s social spheres to influence change (Collins, 2009). Institutional transformation, the second dimension, involves actions taken to challenge and eliminate discrimination within public institutions (Collins, 2009). In total, there were 17 findings which are as follows: 1) defining
activism is complex; 2)
activism happens in different ways along a continuum; 3)
activism comes with expectations 4) recognizing injustice and understanding identity; 5) learning and developing the language; 6) observing and testing the waters; 7) performing
activism; 8) burnout and introspection; 9) reconciliation and expanded perspectives; 10)
activism came with challenges and consequences; 11) personal characteristics shaped their
activism; 12) the influence of others shaped their
activism; and 13) social media influenced their
activism; 14)
activism and the student experience was interconnected and inseparable; 15) race and gender influenced their
activism; 16)
activism required a sacrifice of time and energy; and 17) they gained new skills and knowledge that they passed to others.

▼ Contemporary manifestations of urban agriculture have become symbols of creativity, activism and sustainability in cities. Originally designed to co-locate food and people, urban agriculture produces not just food, but draws people together for social interactions that may have not otherwise existed. What is interesting with these social interactions, is that shared interests don’t necessarily translate to sharing other things. This practice explores the social context around urban agriculture through a series of design interventions that challenge ideas of ownership, the boundaries drawn between private and public, collaboration and cooperation, value and waste. Utilising action research methology has enabled an unique insight as both a mirror and a window into the current food and sustainability practices, and urban culture in Australia. The practice takes place over 3 locations in 2 states: Newcastle NSW, Melbourne and Castlemaine Victoria. All of these places are hubs of creativity and social innovation, offering space to foster and incubate this type of collaborative, sometimes disruptive work. As part of this reflective process, a model is created that provides a framework in which this work and other similar projects can operate on.

▼ The purpose of this study was to examine the concept of stockholder
activism as an area for development in financial public relations scholarship. The study was conducted applying a thematic analysis of online texts related to a case. In this communication study, business and communication research provided the framework to investigate (1) what themes emerged from the valeantnow.com posts in the context of the Valeant crisis, (2) what themes emerged from the messages activist investors sent to the financial community, and (3) what themes emerged from the news generated during this interaction between Valeant and two activist investors to analyze how stockholder
activism shapes the practice of investor relations. Practical implications include strategic knowledge investor relations professionals can use to prevent and/or respond to stockholder
activism.

▼ Despite the societal importance of activism, the
understanding of activist intentions remained limited (Liebert,
Leve, & Hu, 2011; Klar & Kasser, 2009). The current study
used the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to examine two structural
models of low-risk activist intentions and high-risk activist
intentions (Ajzen, 1991). The traditional TPB model was tested
against a hybrid commitment model that also assessed past activist
behaviors and activist identity. Participants (N = 383) were
recruited through social media, professional list-serves, and word
of mouth. Results indicated a good model fit for both the
traditional TPB model (CFI = .98; RMSEA = .05; SRMR = .03; χ2(120)
= 3760.62, p < .01) and the commitment model (CFI = .97; RMSEA =
.05; SRMR = .04; χ2(325) = 7848.07, p < .01). The commitment
model accounted for notably more variance in both low-risk activist
intentions (78.9% in comparison to 26.5% for the traditional TPB
model) and high-risk activist intentions (58.9% in comparison to
11.2% for the traditional TPB model). Despite this, the traditional
TPB model was deemed the better model as the higher variance
explained in the commitment model was almost entirely due to the
inclusion of past low-risk activist behaviors and past high-risk
activist behaviors. A post-hoc analysis that incorporated sexual
orientation and religious affiliation as covariates into the
traditional model also led to a good-fitting model (CFI = .98;
RMSEA = .04; SRMR = .04; χ2(127) = 217.18, p < .01) and
accounted for increased variance in low-risk activist intentions
(29.7%) and high-risk activist intentions (18.7%) compared to the
traditional model. The merits of each of the structural models and
the practical implications for practice and research were
discussed

▼ This dissertation explores the experience of indigenous activists as they attempt to use the Internet and Internet-enabled alliances with global civil society to negotiate their conflicts with state and local governments in the southern state of Oaxaca, Mexico. Drawing on communication and globalizations studies, as well as anthropological literature, this case study sheds light on indigenous conceptualizations of and experience with identity politics, integration into what have been described as Ònew social movements,Ó and the shifting state powers that have come with the acceleration of economic and political globalization. Taken as a whole, the dissertation argues that indigenous activists have constructed a global actvisim that reflects their idiosyncratic cultural and historical context, as well as their employment of self-interested agency in the use of western communications technology and the new global resonance of their cause. In so doing, the dissertation also supports theories of an empowered and dualistic human agency capable of loosening structural restraints (Couldry, Inside Culture; Giddens, The Constition of Society).

▼ Despite New Zealand’s Resource Management Act 1991 (RMA) being lauded as offering democratic decision-making processes, those in opposition to consent applications often feel their input has minimal influence on the decisions made. This research explores how democracy is actualised or constrained through environmentalist opposition to decisions made about coal-mining on conservation land, including both informal and formal participation.
Escarpment Mine is a proposal for an open cast coal mine on the Denniston Plateau on the West Coast of New Zealand. The mine was granted resource consents in 2011 by the two local councils. Environmental activists engaged with these decisions through the formal council led submission process, a requirement under the RMA, and informally through
activism, protest and campaigning. Their opposition was founded on concerns about the mine’s effects on conservation and climate change.
Drawing on theories of deliberative democracy and radical democracy, I create a framework for democracy that includes agonism and antagonism, situated within the overarching democratic principles of equality, justice and the rule of the people. Through interviewing environmentalists opposed to Escarpment Mine and the council officials involved, my research discusses the way environmentalists were constrained from participating meaningfully in the formal process due to perceived bias and the privileging of neoliberal discourses. I suggest that this case reflects a lack of agonism in most areas, and a delegitimising of antagonistic
activism despite such
activism working towards equality and justice. Thus, the case does not fulfil the democratic ideals of working with disagreement.

▼ The disease that would become known as Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) was first identified in June of 1981. The original Center for Disease Control article identified five cases of Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, an opportunistic infection, in otherwise healthy men in Los Angeles. The article speculated that there was a potential relationship between the patients??? homosexual ???life-style??? and their infections. The association of AIDS with a gay life-style and the LGBT community???s decision to embrace AIDS as community cause profoundly influenced AIDS history. This thesis explores the differing agendas of Sacramento city/county???s public health officials and Sacramento???s LGBT community and how they were based on differing understandings of AIDS. These two intersected in the creation of the first public document regarding AIDS in Sacramento, the published findings of the 1986 Mayor???s AIDS Task Force.
The 1986 Mayor???s AIDS Task Force provided the framework for this project, supplemented by primary source material from the Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender Historical Society in San Francisco and the Center for Sacramento History. Newspapers, both from the gay and mainstream press in Sacramento, also provided valuable context for Sacramento during the 1980s. Additional sources consulted to provide context include books and journal articles on the AIDS epidemic, LGBT history, AIDS
activism, and the cultural and linguistic construction of AIDS.

▼ In 2008, Anonymous launched ‘Project Chanology’ which was a direct attack on scientology. They ordered pizza’s to be delivered on scientology addresses, they attacked scientology websites with DDoS attacks and kept calling their main phone line. All in all, Anonymous played with the information outlets of scientology to take an activist standpoint against scientology. Here,
activism is not solely about getting to the streets or letting your message heard, but it becomes about the control of flows of information.
Anonymous transgresses boundaries of what
activism is about, by using ‘new’ information tactics, furthermore, they transgress laws: worldwide many Anonymous’ members have been arrested. I propose to analyse Anonymous as a cheater that plays with information and with rules. And, just as cheaters, they raise questions on the rules, on what it means to be an activist, what the position is of protest online and more. In this thesis, I will formulate a new materialist conceptualization of cheating that will aid towards an understanding of what I will call Anonymous’ information
activism. This research project is not about the question whether Anonymous is wrong or right, but rather it is about how we can understand these practices in their entanglements with the world. This is not an ethical question, but a call for a better understanding of the events pre-judgement. In this context, I am posing the question: How can we understand the cheater Anonymous as a key example of information
activism?

▼ This thesis is a qualitative examination of the experiences of women who participated in two V-Day initiatives. V-Day is a global organization that stages local initiatives aimed at organizing community members to raise money and awareness to fight violence against women in their communities. Half of the women participated in a college campaign in Northern California in 2007, while the other half participated in a community campaign in the same Northern California community in 2008. A total of twelve respondents participated in hour long, qualitative interviews where they were asked to describe their experiences working in the organization. The women???s stories serve to illustrate and illuminate an analysis of the methods that the V-Day organization uses to successfully organize communities and the role of gender and emotions in V-Day organizing. Also discussed are a variety of concepts stemming from the two main themes that arose from the interviews. First, the concept of empowerment is discussed with consideration of the impact of the participants??? involvement in V-Day on their self-perceptions, as well as their motivation to pursue further
activism. Secondly, the concept of solidarity is discussed, with consideration of how V-Day organizing encourages a shared sense of womanhood and contributes to the development of new social networks in the communities that stage V-Day initiatives.

▼ In the early days of HIV/AIDS in North America, those most directly affected by the crisis created a social movement to respond to the virus when no one else would. The legacy of activists’ efforts can be seen in the more than seventy-five AIDS service organizations (ASOs) that provide prevention, support, and education to communities across Ontario today. While these organizations were once an important site of advocacy and resistance for people living with HIV/AIDS (PHAs), ASOs are now often viewed as professionalized, bureaucratic and impersonal spaces. Linking theoretical understandings of public pedagogy and the pedagogical potential of space with HIV/AIDS scholarship, I offer a conception of ASOs as more than simply impersonal service providers, but vibrant spaces of community learning. Drawing on interviews with people who work, volunteer, and use services at a small ASO in Kingston, Ontario called HIV/AIDS Regional Services (HARS), I identify three pedagogical assets within the agency’s space that tend to go unrecognized as such. The agency’s drop-in space, artworks created by PHAs that decorate the walls of the office, and HARS’ storefront design are not usually counted as elements of the kind of formal “HIV/AIDS education” that ASOs provide. However, by exploring the learning experiences that are incited by these assets, I argue that we may broaden our understandings of what counts as HIV/AIDS education and of the value of ASOs in their communities. These unacknowledged assets not only enhance peoples’ understanding of issues related to HIV/AIDS, they also work to develop a sense of community and belonging for visitors to the space. In conclusion, I reiterate that while today’s ASOs are surely different than the organizations that activists created in the 1980s, the learning experiences that arise in agencies like HARS demonstrate that community-building and mutual support can remain as integral aspects of ASOs.

▼ This thesis is about the relationship between radical environmental activists and nature. It investigates whether, for forest and whaling activists, nature is experienced as an active, as opposed to passive, participant in the construction and shaping of their identity and activism. Two research questions guide the investigation: what are radical environmental activists’ perspectives and lived experiences of nature, and what identity and meaning-making processes are involved in the relational dynamics between these activists and the nature they are defending?
The concepts ‘nature’, ‘self-identity’ and ‘more-than-human agency’ are developed into an analytical framework to support the investigation. A phenomenological perspective guides the inquiry’s focus on the research participants’ lived experiences of defending nature, their changing self-identities and the ways they construct meaning about their lifeworlds.
Forest activists engaged in direct action campaigns designed to prevent clear-felling of old growth forests in Tasmania, and Sea Shepherd Conservation Society activists undertaking campaigns in the Southern Ocean to protect whales, participated in in depth qualitative interviews. A thematic analysis was employed that aims to uncover the phenomenological themes, or experiential elements, of the participants’ experiences.
The inquiry’s findings contribute to environmentalism scholarship and the study of nature-human relationships. They also demonstrate the need to appreciate the role of nature as an active contributor to activist self-identity and culture.

▼ The boundaries of victimhood have received
increasing attention in criminology, particularly considering the
recent proliferation in 'trauma talk' or 'trauma creep'. Noting the
connections between victims and trauma, there is now increasing
recognition of the impact of victimisation, not only on
individuals, but upon families, communities and cultures with its
effects extending across time, place and person. Following David
Garland's assertion of the 'return of the victim' 15 years ago, the
interests of victims have moved to centre stage of the criminal
justice system with the experiences of some taken to be
representative of others. While this has encouraged an appreciation
of the extent of suffering in victimisation, it is easy to
understand how we might 'lose sight of the individual victim'. This
research presents a qualitative study of the phenomenon of bereaved
family
activism. Findings presented in this thesis are based upon
15 in-depth interviews and participant observations with Mothers
Against Violence: a Manchester-based charity that emerged in
response to an intense period of gun violence and ensuing community
outcry in the 1990s. The aim of this thesis was to explore how
victims have confronted and mobilised their experiences of lethal
violence to promote acknowledgment and prompt recognition. By
refocusing on the individual and foregrounding the victim, this
thesis asked how those involved understand, make sense of and give
value to their experience in light of their role in Mothers Against
Violence. Data collected was analysed through thematic analysis,
remembering the embedded nature of such stories in cultural,
historical and biographical contexts, communities and the research
exchange. Findings are presented as a way of following the stories
of individuals to the moment of collective action. The primary
contributions of this thesis can be summarised under the following
headings; firstly, applications of 'trauma' in victimology;
secondly, understanding victim movements such as Mothers Against
Violence as spaces for emotional, social and practical learning;
thirdly, conceptualising victimisation as one moment in a series of
'turning points'; and fourthly, the role of stories in prompting
recognition, encouraging identification and assembling
communities.

▼ Judicial
activism and the Warren Court became synonymous, in the 1980's, with the rise of originalism. However, the first time the term, judicial
activism, was employed it was applied to the Hughes Court. This thesis compares the two Courts to determine if the originalist labeling of the Warren Court as an activist court is appropriate. The evidence presented in this thesis demonstrates that judicial
activism is a term that fails to capture the inherent complexities found in the interpretation of constitutional law when applied to either Court. It further suggests that originalism, as a jurisprudential theory, would be capable of producing the same type of results oriented decisions that originalists accused the Warren Court rendering.

▼ The objective of this thesis is to identify how criminalisation by mainstream media, police, politicians, ‘the public’ and court processes affected green activists, with specific reference to the Terror Raids of October 2007. Drawing on media analysis - covering news articles from 15 October 2007 to 15 November 2007, and 1 January 2017 to 31 July 2018 - and semi-structured interviews with eight participants (all green activists, two of whom were arrested in the Terror Raids), this research explores the issues of colonisation,
activism, criminalisation, and resistance to criminalisation in detail.
The research concludes that state agents and mainstream media contributed to a ‘blanket criminalisation’ of activists in the Terror Raids and that this criminalisation had significantly detrimental effects on the activists, whānau , and wider groups. This intense criminalisation was produced as a result of activists being labelled as ‘terrorists’. As a result, the Raids represented an evolution in the criminalisation of green activists in Aotearoa - from inconsistent forms of criminalisation (in which previous criminalising narratives had been joined by narratives relating to democratic freedom and environmental justice) to the application of intense criminalisation by the state and mainstream media of all activists in the Raids. This research demonstrates, therefore, the power of labelling. However, this thesis also identifies the power of green
activism and the resilience of campaigners to this intense criminalisation. It emphasises that resistance can survive even when confronted by intense criminalisation and state violence. It concludes by emphasising the significant contributions green activists make to the environmental well-being of Aotearoa and to the international environmental justice movement.

▼ This thesis examines yugonostalgia – nostalgia for the Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia (SFRY) – in contemporary Serbia. Yugonostalgia often has a negative reputation – both in academia and in everyday life – as an ‘unhealthy’ or even debilitating fixation on the socialist past. However, this thesis argues that yugonostalgia tells us not only about nostalgic subjects’ attitude towards the past but also about their current concerns. Contemporary Serbia is permeated by discourses privileging nationalistic and neoliberal values. This thesis explores how young people can develop nostalgic attitudes towards the socialist past, even in such an unlikely context.
Yugonostalgia is an ambiguous phenomenon, and this ambiguity allows for positive dimensions and uses. To highlight the emancipatory potential of yugonostalgia, this thesis utilises ethnographic fieldwork among young leftist activists in Serbia’s capital, Belgrade. The focus on this milieu demonstrates how yugonostalgia is not simply reactionary but can overlap with and even energize a critical stance towards both nationalistic and neoliberal projects in contemporary Serbia. Additionally, this focus on young activists helps to counter popular negative stereotypes about Serbian youth as either passive victims of their situation or as a violent negative force. Finally, the thesis also adds to our understanding of how the meaning of the ‘left’ is negotiated in post-socialist conditions.
Drawing on concept of lieux de mémoire developed by the French historian Pierre Nora, I examine four broad clusters of recurring themes that appear in the yugonostalgic narratives of my Serbian informants. These four themes of national unity, international cooperation, economic prosperity and cultural achievements once constituted the ideological foundations of the Yugoslav state. Today, they take on new significance among young leftist activists. The state ideology of the brotherhood and unity of the Yugoslav nations and the anti-fascist struggle was relevant for my informants in the context of the rise of nationalism in contemporary Serbia. Yugoslav internationalism took on a new significance in the context of Serbia’s relative international isolation and the loss of mobility for its citizens. The ‘Yugoslav dream’, the socio-economic comfort that the citizens of SFRY enjoyed, was attractive in the context of the increased precariousness of life in contemporary Serbia but for my leftist informants also provided a compelling example of a fairer and more prosperous economic model than what has resulted from current neoliberal reforms. Yugoslav culture was often portrayed as superior to the cultural life of contemporary Serbia, which has deteriorated under the influence of both nationalism and neoliberalism.
Yugonostalgia, then, represents not a retreat from the present, but a rich cultural repertoire for progressive re-engagement with current…

▼ Billions of animals are killed every year based on this ethical premise: Animals are lower than humans on some abstract moral scale, and they can therefore be considered property. However, a growing percentage of compassionate and educated animal lovers and advocates reject that premise. Its now possible to live comfortably and happily without subjecting animals to fear, pain, and stress for non-essential products. Whether it be food, clothing, scientific experiment, or entertainment, alternatives now exist to take their place. A broad range of investigative journalism and scholarship have exposed the detrimental effects of the use of animals for industry. An increasingly large number of compassionate, attentive people are beginning to understand that animals, too, deserve to their life as they choose, and many of us are determined to spread the word. Animal People tells the stories of individuals who are engaging in advocacy in new ways and building a better future for animals and humans alike. Though their fields of interest and expertise may be very different — they have backgrounds in science, social media, animal husbandry, and philosophy— their stories illuminate the progress we're making in thinking about animals and interacting with them in a more positive, less-exploitative manner.'

▼ In transforming the city's waste infrastructure towards mechanized incineration, a pending waste management reform in Dakar stands to dispossess over a thousand recycling workers, whose future access to waste and participation in the city's waste system is in limbo. In the face of an infrastructural reform that compromises their livelihoods, the workers draw on their ties to global civil society actors and a transnational advocacy network as they mobilize to defend their access to waste. This study analyzes the workers’ mobilization as a citizenship struggle, given that their claims signify efforts to influence the political economy that shapes their livelihoods. Situated at the intersection of infrastructural violence, transnational
activism, and substantive citizenship scholarship, this research draws on qualitative field research and document analysis to show how ties to global civil society actors can erode the practice of citizenship by weakening the capacity of the workers to be politically engaged and to shape the fate of their polity. In this case, the international civil society groups and transnational advocacy networks involved are financially supportive but politically uninvolved in ways that distance the workers from the state and disenable them from influencing government decision making. The emphasis in transnational
activism literature on the emancipatory implications of local-global alliances for local struggles thus needs to be further scrutinized with respect to the ways in which these alliances transform local practices and formulations of citizenship.

▼ In the past ten year various state legislatures have proposed immigration reforms
acts that have drawn the attention of the Hispanic population. These articles of
legislation affect the Hispanic community, both legal and illegal immigrants, by making
the racial appearance of some Hispanics a criterion for suspicion and investigation. This
research is an attempt to find what factors can lead to the unification of Hispanic foreign
born to voice their concern about the direction of these reforms. I look to the church as a
starting point to bring together the people affected by these reforms, to organize and
educate this group of Hispanics. My purpose is to quantify the likelihood of churches
leading these people forward to social progress. I use the Pew Research Center’s
Hispanic Center 2004 National Survey of Latino: Politic and Civic Participation to create
indexes and to analyze models to better understand the church as a conduit for civic
activism.

Asian American media activism: past, present, and digital

Degree: PhD, Communication, 2014, University of Southern California

▼ Asian American media activists have worked for decades
to promote a greater diversity of roles for Asian Americans and a
greater number of Asian Americans both behind and in front of the
camera. In this dissertation I investigate this complicated
interplay between activists and media producers, particularly
within the context of practices that have contributed to these
impacts but that might not so readily be identified as
activism,
such as the creations of Asian American online videographers and
bloggers, and the work of advertising agencies in Asian American
communities. Given that such efforts rely on the premise that the
media representations teach us what it means to be a citizen and
who counts as a citizen, on a broader level this investigation
helps us to better understand how Asian American citizenship in its
many different forms has been imagined and enacted. The
relationship between Asian American activists and the media
industry is importantly connected to the idea of the
citizen-consumer, or powerful groups of consumers who articulate
their market value as a means for impacting societal change.
Although scholars within Asian American Studies have traditionally
been hesitant about theorizing consumer culture as a site for
constituting Asian American subjecthood, this investigation of
media
activism offers a new perspective on the relationship between
marketing, consumer culture, and political action within Asian
American communities. Moreover, by exploring this kind of
activism
through the specific lens of Asian American cultural citizenship, I
argue that transnational identity formations have altogether
altered the way we should theorize Asian American media
activism.

▼ I propose the psychological proximity hypothesis to shed additional light on ourunderstanding of the motivation behind political participation. When people directlyexperience a political issue, that is, when the political issue is psychologically proximate, they are more likely to become involved. There are two mechanisms containedwithin this hypothesis. First, psychological proximity leads to higher levels of issuepublic membership, which in turn leads to activism. Second, because psychologicalproximity often leads to thinking of the issue in concrete terms, people are betterable to match specific political activities to address the problem. I develop the psychological proximity hypothesis in relation to issue-based activism across a variety ofpolitical domains in chapter two by using a combination of representative survey datafrom the American National Election Studies and the General Social Survey alongwith original data and a survey-experiment collected through Mechanical Turk. Inchapter 4, I apply the hypothesis to the environment and climate change in order toexamine the mechanisms more closely. In both chapters, the two mechanisms linkingproximity to activism are empirically supported.In addition to the psychological proximity hypothesis, in this dissertation I presenta novel measure of environmental attitudes that does not suffer from a confoundwith liberal ideology as existing scales do. The Moral Environmentalism Scale isconstructed by incorporating a mix of liberal and conservative moral language. The viiMES is the only scale analyzed that is able to predict Republican environmentalbehavior. Furthermore, the MES is psychometrically valid. All items load on a singlefactor, the scale detects low and high levels of moral environmentalism, and the MESdiscriminates between someone who is at the low end of the scale from someone whois very pro-environment.

▼ Student activism as a concept has proven to be heavily influenced by not only the students who participate, but also the political, social, and technological variables that are at play. Throughout history, collective action among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) college students did not under any circumstances follow the same trends as activism in general, due in part to fear of being identified and an overall sense of repression by other social and political activists. However, the digital age has ushered in a new era of activism, and the way in which LGBT college students utilize the Internet to engage in cyberactivism is an understudied topic. This study sought to explore how LGBT college students utilize the Internet for cyberactivism. Results of this study indicate that students place a large emphasis on communities of support. In addition, the concept of cyberactivism proved to have subjective components relating to how participants defined the phenomenon. Lastly, the results explored the ways in which students navigate the Internet for purposes of their activism. Implications for practice are discussed and offer insights into how student cyberactivists can be best supported.
