▼ This study investigates the impact of schemas related to the body on the experiences of runners in a mainstream running group, the FunRunners, and a more extreme ultrarunning group, the Ultramaniacs. I use the cases of running groups to make contributions to the field of cultural sociology by employing a variety of research methods including textual analysis of online chatboard interactions and content analysis of popular running publications. I use this data to explore public discourse around running, to examine the structuring of the two running groups, and to investigate the specific meaning structures at play in the groups. Ultimately, I wanted to know how hermeneutics matter in human lived experience. Also, what is the relationship between internal group cultures and external macro cultures? And why do processes or objects that garner no attention in one setting become objects of intense focus in another and what effect does this have? That is, are there cultural virtuosi within the running world, ala Weber’s religious virtuosi, and, if so, what processes constitute them? The focus on the FunRunners and Ultramaniacs was chosen primarily because of the possibilities for seeing the processes of interest here in order to build theory and best illustrate meaning-making and meaning-influence. This is not a study about running, it is a study of the sui generis creation of meaning in groups, an examination of the conditions both organizational and external under which this meaning-making is most likely to occur, and then an exploration of how the meanings created (at times) within groups can matter to the people who encounter and hold them. The layered exploration of these processes in this study shows that not all people are equally likely to pay attention to meanings in all areas of their lives. There are many places where meaning is taken for granted, and in part, this study shows why cultural virtuosi are created in certain types of situations.

▼ Scenes, created and defined by particular social settings offer a central activity that help to focus community interaction, a sense of purpose and of being in the right place. This dissertation is about the grassroots development of an art scene in the most unlikely of places – Las Vegas, a city sociologists have often described as having an isolating character with an outward focus on tourism, a weak civic culture and social fragmentation, resulting in an individually-focused and socially isolated population. Using the multiple techniques of ethnographic research, this work comes out of: (1) conversations with early visionaries, (2) participant observation and (3) a wide assortment of secondary data, both local and national. My ethnographic account of the development of the Las Vegas art scene highlights the efforts of early visionaries, internal conflicts over its design and implementation (gallery walk or festive block party) of the monthly city-wide First Friday event and activities within the Arts District, the impact of a corporate revitalization of the Entertainment District in the old downtown area (Downtown Project), and the sudden purchase of the non-profit First Friday trademark by the managing conglomerate connected to the Downtown Project. This study has four key findings. First, I found support for the idea that the Las Vegas art scene can be interpreted as a response to the isolating, and individualizing character of Las Vegas. With a monthly gathering of massive crowds within the 18 blocks of the Arts District, also called the “18b,” First Friday has become a type of temporary community focused upon an organized focal experience for a wide variety of artistic styles through authenticating cultural and aesthetic activities and experiences. Second, the burgeoning arts culture of Las Vegas has formed a loosely organized social world for participants to share meaning and interests and at times conflict, such as the polarization around a long standing internal conflict regarding the implementation of First Friday (arts walk vs. street festival). Third, the Las Vegas arts community is an important repository for social capital, especially if more social venues are developed where friends" and acquaintances can meet, talk and relax (Oldenberg 2001). At the same time, while third places, such as The Arts Factory or The Funk House will be necessary to maintaining the 18b, it is unclear if the Arts Distinct, in and of itself can ever become a ‘big third place” (Borer 2008) like that of the Entertainment District in old downtown. As long as resources are directed primarily to the Downtown Project and the downtown area is marketed as a “to be seen” tourist destination, the 18b will not rise to the level of a city-wide destination. Fourth, the promotion of Las Vegas as a center for the arts is premised on the idea that the commodification of art has the power to engage and transform [cities]. However any “meaning” construed from the consumption of art must depend upon… Advisors/Committee Members: Robert Futrell, Eugene Moehring, Barbara Brents, David Dickens.

▼ Kazakhstan, like other former Soviet states, seeks national self-definition. For Kazakhs, proverbs are the traditional resource for defining problems, making moral judgments, and suggesting remedies. As a result, the Kazakhstani government mandates instruction in Kazakh proverbs to shape the nation. How can anthropological and folkloristic tools be implemented to assess the language ideologies brought into play in this situation without crossing the line into conjecture? Research into “national traits” using proverbs has validity issues since it relies on small proverb sets, fails to acknowledge the multi-voiced nature of language ideologies, and projects values onto the societies in question. More recent research utilizes larger proverb sets, surveys, and participant observation thus providing examples for addressing these shortcomings. In my own research, I have incorporated these proverb research methods while also addressing the shortcomings of the “national traits” research by setting three delimitations of my research concerning language ideologies expressed by means of Kazakh proverbs. First, I focus on youth, the societal group most likely to change linguistically in an environment of language revitalization. Second, I only explore language ideologies concerning “community”. Third, I have worked with a speech community rather than attempting nationwide analysis. My field research was completed at Kazakh National Technical University in Almaty, Kazakhstan. I surveyed students concerning Kazakh proverbs addressing “community”. Students reenacted the most familiar proverbs from the set, thereby narrativizing their language ideologies concerning “community”. I analyzed the data using an adaptation of Goffman's frame analysis. The language ideology showing the most tension was individualism-collectivism. This cultural theme is best understood as a continuum going from individual to the extended family / friends, and finally to the nation. In their narratives, students grappled with the paradigm of strength in numbers and “elders” in the skits repeatedly opposed individualism. In the reenactments, students' agency received its clearest expression in terms of proverbs about extended family / friends. Thus the language ideologies concerning “community” showed the following frame issues (boundaries): 1. Tension over where the speech community should position itself along the individualism-collectivism continuum; 2. Scripts against individualism; 3. Preponderance of adaptations for smaller-scale collectives.

▼ This thesis examines public involvement in socio-technical controversies from a sociological perspective. Public engagement in science and technology is becoming increasingly important in societies where citizens are asked, and expected, to be involved with issues that have been dominated by experts. In New Zealand, a contemporary example of public participation in science and technology is the large-scale road building programme called the Roads of National Significance. The central aim of this thesis is to understand how the public engage with and create meaningful evaluations of complex issues that are associated with expert-driven politics and top-down decision-making processes. I examine the public’s involvement in the Kāpiti expressway project by discussing how locally-based groups evaluated and publicised it as an object of concern. Specifically, I investigate the demonstration and visual imagery technologies that were utilised to publicise the expressway as a public matter. I then explore how opponents translated their concerns with the environmental, political, and social aspects of the project as legal and technical issues. The second aim of this thesis is to contribute to the material turn in the human sciences by engaging with object-oriented (Barry, 2013; Latour, 2005a; Marres & Lezaun, 2011) and socio-cultural (Boltanski & Thévenot, 2006) approaches to public involvement in socio-technical controversies. The role that technologies play in materialising public participation and re-presenting the Kāpiti expressway project as an object of concern are examined. However, to create a dialogue between object-oriented and socio-cultural approaches to public dispute, I investigate the technologies of justification and criticism, and the cultural modes of evaluation that qualify people and things within moral vocabularies. I argue that the public were obliged to re-present the Kāpiti expressway as an object of concern by demonstrating how their personal objections were relevant to the legal and technical aspects of the project. A range of technological devices enabled local groups to evaluate the project during the early planning stages of the project, but convincing decision-makers to reject the expressway involved the difficult task of critiquing the planning process, and enrolling allies. This thesis uses a qualitative, case study approach to socio-technical controversies. I use interviews, qualitative observations, and documentary methods to examine the actions of locally-based groups and the modes of evaluation used to challenge the Kāpiti expressway project.

Mestrado em Sociologia

Em contexto de profunda globalização, o cinema permanece como uma das indústrias culturais mais apreciadas e lucrativas, com um alcance potencialmente mundial. Comporta e difunde representações, valores e significados que reforçam a importância da diversidade cultural nesta forma de expressão artística. A discussão teórica tem-se repartido essencialmente entre os autores que vêem na disseminação massificada dos produtos culturais uma ameaça de homogeneização e, pelo contrário, aqueles para quem a tendência de uniformização não coloca em causa a subsistência das culturas locais. No plano político-institucional, a Convenção sobre a Proteção e a Promoção da Diversidade das Expressões Culturais, promovida pela UNESCO, foi o culminar de uma longa disputa entre países defensores da absoluta liberalização do mercado e os que reivindicam a especificidade dos bens culturais e a implementação de medidas de regulação. Em termos empíricos o tema não se encontra suficientemente estudado, pelo que o objetivo deste trabalho consiste na análise extensiva e multidimensional da diversidade cultural no panorama cinematográfico à escala mundial a partir de estatísticas oficiais. A hipótese é a de que globalmente existe reduzida diversidade e forte concentração na produção, distribuição, exibição e consumo de cinema, sobretudo em função da predominância de títulos norte-americanos. Os resultados confirmam a hipótese enunciada, de forma menos vincada em contextos onde existe maior relevância e dinamismo do cinema nacional, e traduzem-se não só num conhecimento mais profundo do tópico como num barómetro que pode orientar futuras decisões político-culturais em relação ao cinema.

In a context of profound globalization, cinema remains one of the most popular and lucrative cultural industries, with a potentially global reach. Carries and spreads representations, values and meanings that reinforce the importance of cultural diversity regarding this form of artistic expression. Theoretical discussion is mainly divided between authors who consider mass dissemination of cultural products a threat of homogenization and, on the other hand, those for whom the trend of uniformity does not jeopardize the subsistence of local cultures. At the political-institutional level, UNESCO’s Convention on the Protection and Promotion of the Diversity of Cultural Expressions was the culmination of a long dispute between countries promoting an absolute liberalization of the market and those claiming the specificity of cultural goods and the implementation of regulatory measures. Empirically, the subject is not sufficiently studied, so the aim of this work is to carry an extensive and multidimensional analysis of cultural diversity in worldwide film panorama working with official statistics. The hypothesis is that globally there is reduced diversity and strong concentration on production, distribution, exhibition and consumption of cinema, mainly due to the predominance of North American films. Results confirm the hypothesis stated, to a…

▼ Institutionalization of bullerengue, which is a traditional Afro-Colombian music and dance practice, is a process that emerged in the Colombian Urabá region over the past three decades, and that has radically transformed the ways in which this musical expression was traditionally performed. In the past, the communities administered bullerengue as part of their public celebrations or private festivities. However, since the 1980s, due to a decline in its practice caused by the arrival of new musics to the region, a group of institutions participated in an institutional cultural revival that, adhering to recent national policies of decentralization, took care of its management. The most visible expressions of this institutional framework are the bullerengue festivals, managed by local NGOs, and the local bullerengue schools, which are funded by local governments through casas de la cultura. I argue that, even though institutionalization of bullerengue in the region prevented this musical tradition from disappearing, a group of local cultural workers, regional private investors, and local politicians contextualized this musical practice within a framework of social, political, and economic relations, which many times neglect the needs of bullerengue practitioners to serve private interests. Nonetheless, bullerengue practitioners contest the institutional framework through performance strategies, like street bullerengue practices, which empower them as social group and strengthen solidarity and agency within a regional community of performers. Generally speaking, though, even though practices have revitalized, the support provided by the bullerengue institutions has not empowered this community in the self-management of their cultural traditions and, therefore, their members have constructed a set of proposals and ideas to make the framework fit better with their felt needs. This thesis is an analysis and a critique of such power relationships in the frame of a contemporary Latin American democracy.

▼ This paper presents a research dissertation into the importance of Cultural Intelligence (CQ) as originally defined by Earley and Ang (2003) in the intent of expatriate international school teachers working in Latin America to renew their contracts through its impact on adaptability and job satisfaction for these educators. The need to improve teacher retention, as well as identify qualified candidates is first discussed, along with the factors that have been identified in leading to better teacher retention. A discussion of Embeddedness and the specific aspects of Person-Job fit (P-J fit), Person-Host Culture fit (P-HC fit), and Person-Organization fit (P-O fit) as mediating factors is also presented, leading to the questioning of the potential predictive capacity of Cultural Intelligence (CQ) in the success of overseas teaching candidates due to the effect that CQ may have on teacher adaptation and on both job satisfaction, and subsequent intention to renew their contract. A representative, self-selected sample from the roughly 1300 teachers in the 64 school Tri-Association of private American international schools in Latin America was surveyed, with the data analyzed using a survey instrument based on previously validated instruments relating to the various variables involved. Analyses of the data include a descriptive analysis, Confirmatory Factor Analysis, bivariate t-test analysis and multivariate regression and multiple regression analyses of the data and Sobel tests for mediation to explore the various possible relationships among the variables. The study identified statistically significant Pearson’s correlations among the Aggregate measure of CQ with both Job Satisfaction and Intent to Renew Contract and with Embeddedness and its component parts of Person-Job Fit, Person-Organization Fit and Person-Host Culture Fit. As well, statistically significant correlations were found among Metacognitive CQ and Motivational CQ with Job Satisfaction and Motivational CQ with Intent to Renew Contract. Simple regressions confirmed the statistical significance of CQ with regards to both Job Satisfaction and Intent to Renew Contract, and despite the low level of shared variation it was nonetheless of practical significance. Once hierarchical multiple regressions were conducted, including the mediating variable of Embeddedness, and its specific facets of Person-Job Fit, Person-Organization Fit and person Host-Culture Fit, CQ was found to hold no unique statistical significance whether examined as an Aggregate measure or as the 4 distinct factors with Embeddedness found to fully mediate the effects of CQ on both Job Satisfaction and Intent to Renew Contract. The full models, however, did account for a statistically significant variation in both Job Satisfaction and Intent to Renew Contract to noteworthy levels. Sobel tests further confirmed the statistically significant mediating effect of Embeddedness and the Fit variables in the construct for both Job Satisfaction and Intent to Renew Contract with regards…

▼ West Bank Palestinian immigrants to the United States transitioned from economic immigrants to exiles in the aftermath of the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and Gaza Strip in 1967. A portion of these exiles established a community across parts of New York and New Jersey. Despite being economically integrated, the community continues to identify itself as exiles into the second generation longing for a Palestinian state in their ancestral home. Tensions exist for this immigrant group that believes the United States, through its support of Israel in its foreign policy, is partially responsible for their continued exile. Yet, the United States is place they were granted rights, citizenship, and their children call “our country.” Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted between 2001-2007, the social networks, everyday lives, and personal narratives of Palestinian-Americans are documented and analyzed to trace the processes by which a sense of exile is fostered among the second-generation of American-born Palestinians without compromising their sense of being American. This dissertation argues that the duality of attachments to being Palestinian and American is mutually reinforcing. Being the “other” at Israeli borders and checkpoints and in the United States after the 9/11-backlash set the environment in which Palestinian-Americans have found it necessary to fight to affirm both aspects of their status and identity. Nonetheless, the dissertation argues against the notion of “reactive ethnicity,” whereby Palestinian-Americans only feel as such because of the obstacles and political barriers they face. An alternative perspective is proposed based on Charles Tilly's conceptualization of “trust networks.” Despite their name, trust networks are based on the amount of risk involved in maintaining the group's cohesion. For Palestinian-Americans, the costs involved in remaining together are much higher than disbanding, yet they resist. This dissertation identifies three primary mechanisms that build boundaries around the community from within and in the process produce its dual identification, namely: surveillance and gossip, financial transaction, and competition. Ultimately, exile is demonstrated to be a set of practices instead of an exclusive psychological state, which in turn allows for other identifications, even seemingly contradictory ones, to co-exist.

▼ More than three decades of linguistic research on the use of English in Singapore has revealed local linguistic features that define a range of varieties of Singapore English (SE). At one end of this range lies Standard Singapore English (SSE), a variety grammatically similar to other standard varieties of English, which is prominently used in formal contexts, such as education and the media. At the other end lies Colloquial Singapore English (CSE), which may be the only variety used by some speakers, although typically it is an informal variety used among family and friends that differs markedly from standard varieties of English in a number of elements of the phonology, syntax, and lexicon. Yet despite this substantial prior work on the characteristics and social practice of Singapore English, there are a number of important questions about this linguistically complex community that remain unanswered, or controversial. Can the diversity of features and varieties of SE be adequately addressed in terms of prevailing sociolinguistic models that are focused on monolingual communities? Or, are the varieties of CSE and SSE so dissimilar as to require distinct linguistic rules drawn from two or more different mental grammars? How do speakers operate dynamically in so rich a linguistic landscape, making choices from among their wide repertoires? Can theoretical models such as diglossia or a lectal continuum adequately capture the sociolinguistic topography of Singapore English? This dissertation examines these issues, looking at the ways in which English-medium educated Chinese Singaporeans vary their speech for different purposes and discourse contexts. I undertake a quantitative analysis of several social and linguistic variables, to provide substantive and precise measures of the linguistic homogeneity or heterogeneity of these speakers’ repertoires. Speakers’ evaluative beliefs about the varieties of Singapore English are also examined qualitatively, and their individual behavior is situated with respect to the sociolinguistic demands of their personal circumstances. The results show several features of CSE and SSE that are sufficiently different as to suggest that they derive from distinct rules or mental grammars, implicating a higher level of diversity than that assumed in conventional models of style-shifting.

▼ This study examines how societal and organizational culture influences the acculturation process in cross-border acquisitions. The acquisition of a 30-year-old, well established family-owned business in India by a relatively new, ten year-old American firm provided the focus for the research. A qualitative approach was used incorporating on-site interviews and observations at locations in the United States and India, and analysis of archival data and documentation. The results of this research provide interesting findings that give insights into the role of both societal and organizational culture in the integration and blending of two organizations from different geographic regions of the world. Three findings expressed how the organizational culture of the acquiring firm influences acculturation. There were also three findings on how the organizational culture of the acquired firm influences the acculturation process. These findings from the acquiring firm reveal that standardizing processes, a willingness to change strategy, and investing in training and development of employees are key to successful acculturation. The study also found in the acquired organization that a strong identification with the organization, adaptability, and eagerness to learn aided the acculturation process, as did scenarios in which employees were accustomed to following directives of superiors. Two findings were identified relating to how the societal culture of the acquiring firm affects the acculturation process, along with an additional two findings to how the societal culture of the acquired firm affects the acculturation process. The findings regarding the role of the influence of societal culture affirm previous studies asserting that the culture of a society influences that of organizations nestled within it. The findings from this study support the conclusions that (1) societal culture has a direct influence on organizational culture; (2) organizations must embrace adaptability, and (3) both societal and organizational culture impact the timeframe of the acculturation process. These conclusions are significant, as they begin to close the gap in the literature related to the role of societal and organizational culture in the acculturation process in cross-border acquisitions. Implications for additional research and for practitioners are also identified.

▼ In this dissertation, I address the social organization and social attachments of a group of older street youth in Durban, South Africa. I look to their participation in a newly emergent, institutional order in South Africa: the "informal" street shelter. Established for youth by youth, informal shelters are places where street youth congregate to mitigate the daily hardships of urban poverty. These sites of inhabitation typically occur within condemned, gutted, or burnt-out buildings. As such, informal shelters are unstable spaces of accommodation, prone to state-sanctioned demolition. Informal shelters operate outside the purview of the state, outside the regulatory ambit of supervising adults. Yet by no means do informal shelters figure as a counter-structure built in opposition to the beliefs or practices of South African society at large. Rather, the youth who utilize informal shelters purposively recreate the alliances of their upbringings. They reconstruct the moral communities of their past. Informal shelters, in short, reflect familiar, recognizable routines of everyday domesticity. This dissertation addresses the emergence, the sustainability, and the imminent demise of one informal shelter, known as Point Place. Located in the metropolis of Durban, Point Place accommodates more than an hundred street youth at any given time. The daily survival of the Point Place youth hinges on their attachments with one another. They often express these attachments through the idiom of kin. As kin, the youth of Point Place create reciprocal ties of obligation that enables them to make legitimizing claims on one another's productive and reproductive capabilities. Kinship, in this context, reflects strategies of both choice and compulsion, whereby street youth constantly rework the boundaries of their social relatedness. As such, I address kinship as a highly subjective and contested process of belonging. The contestations of kin apply to the home situations of street youth as well. Here they cannot reinterpret the restraints of their relatedness. They can, however, renounce their filial obligations. And they do so by running away—to remake their own visions of home on the streets.

▼ This dissertation investigates relations between gender and culture in the context of women's intentional communities: residential communities composed entirely of women. Women's intentional communities provide a rich field for discussing issues of gender, culture, and the deliberate production of cultural difference. Using interview data and participant observation at several field sites, I explore these issues and focus on four main theoretical questions: (1) The cultures of women's lands are to an important degree consciously created, discussed, and changed by land-women. The production of cultural difference is deliberate and, moreover, there is constant meta-discussion and self-awareness about that production by my informants. Ideas about the production of culture within anthropology still often focus on culture as unconscious or outside the scope of individual daily activities; yet here I focus on how individual women strategize to produce cultural difference. (2) Women's lands are not isolated bubbles of culture, nor are they a network of cultures which function without respect to the matrix cultures in which they are enmeshed. There is cultural exchange between the matrix cultures of the United States and women's lands. (3) Because of the greater "weight" of the matrix culture, there are ways in which it influences the cultures of women's-lands that go largely (although not entirely) undiscussed. These invisible or doxic pressures are among the hardest to resist and change within women's-land cultures, and sometimes represent ideas either adopted or not fully questioned by women's-land cultures. (4) Culture and gender are intertwined, in both matrix United States cultures and within women's-land cultures, and much of the cultural difference between these stems from different gender structures. Gender and gender relations are different within a single-sex community, and occur in ways that are not possible within the larger matrix of the United States. Furthermore, although some gender ideas from the matrix culture still persist, large parts of the doxa of femaleness and femininity are challenged by the fact that on women's land, women are the norm and the unmarked category.

▼ This dissertation investigates the normative construction of a politics of language and community in north-west Wales (United Kingdom). It is based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted primarily between January 2007 and April 2008, with central participant-observation settings in primary-level state schools and in the teaching-spaces and hallways of a university. Its primary finding is an account of the gap between the national visibility and the cultural (in)visibility communities of speakers of the indigenous language of Wales (Cymraeg, or “Welsh”). With one exception, no public discourse has yet emerged in Wales that provides an explicit framework or vocabulary for describing the cultural community that is anchored in Cymraeg. One has to live those meanings even to know about them. The range of social categories for living those meanings tends to be constructed in ordinary conversations as some form of nationalism, whether political, cultural, or language nationalism. Further, the negatively valenced category of nationalism current in English-speaking Britain is in tension with the positively valenced category of nationalism current among many who move within Cymraeg-speaking communities. Thus, the very politics of identity are themselves political since the line between what is political and what is not, is itself subject to controversy. The result is what I call the “submergence” of Cymraeg-oriented cultural communities: People who would say Cymraeg is an essential part of their personality and communities mark out cultural space for their sense of continuity (to the past, to others) in ways that do not require or enable them to make any substantive cultural claims. Within these settings of a modalized Welsh culture—always only partially expressed— indigeneity and ethnic difference are symbolized by the emblematic and lived importance of Cymraeg, while the significance of Cymraeg tends to be implicitly conveyed by means of overt references to “Welshness”. This cultural submergence of the resources for Cymraeg-centered identity seems motivated and sustained by the fact that it produces a haven from holiday-goers and English patriots who do not value Welsh cultural features as highly as do those who take pride in the Cymraeg-centered cultural community. In light of these features of local life, I suggest several terms of art—including “language demesne” and “language corridor”—because they are more fitting of local politics than is the idea of a (global) language community. This dissertation also contributes a theoretical basis for examining the pragmatics of language communities, which requires differentiating phenomenal-level semiotic analyses from investigations of the dynamics of cultural discourse. The “obvious” empirical situation in Wales—as analyzed using a Peircean-phenomenological semiotics—runs contrary to the relatively opaque and…

▼ This dissertation examines the social and interactional foundations of a grammatical divergence between Tactile American Sign Language (TASL) and Visual American Sign Language (VASL) in the Seattle DeafBlind community. I argue that as a result of the pro-tactile movement, structures of interaction have been reconfigured and a new language has begun to emerge. Drawing on 18 months of ethnographic research, more than 190 hours of videorecordings of interaction and language use, 50 interviews with members of the community, and more than 14 years of involvement in a range of capacities, I analyze this social transformation and its effect on the semiotic organization of TASL. I identify two processes as requisite for the emergence of TASL: deictic integration and embedding in the social field. Deictic integration involves the coordination of grammatical systems with modes of access and orientation that are reciprocal across a group of language-users. Embedding in the social field involves: (1) the legitimation of the language for taking up valued social roles, along with the embodied knowledge necessary for doing so, and (2) authorization of some language-users to evaluate linguistic forms and communicative practices as correct or not. In this dissertation, I track these processes among DeafBlind people and I show how they are leading to new mechanisms for referring to the immediate environment and tracking referents across a stream of discourse (Chapter 7), new rules for the formation of lexical signs (Chapter 8), and a new system for generating semiotically complex signs, which incorporate both linguistic and non-linguistic elements (Chapter 9). In order to understand the social and interactional foundations of these emergent systems, I examine the history of two institutions around which the Seattle DeafBlind community was built (Chapter 3). In Chapter 4, I show how social roles, given by the history of those institutions, were reconfigured by DeafBlind leaders and how this led to changes in modes of access and orientation (Chapters 5 and 6). I argue that as relations between linguistic, deictic, and social phenomena grew tighter and more restricted, a new tactile language began to emerge. I therefore apprehend language emergence not as a process of liberation or abstraction from context, but as a process of contextual integration (Chapter 1).

▼ This qualitative study not only describes the intercultural capacities of 20 high-achieving, homeschooled, evangelical university students from diverse backgrounds, but also far surpasses this original aim by generating a new model that critiques and complements cultural intelligence theory (CQ). Debate regarding tolerance among homeschoolers has lacked adequate study because the right questions have been obscured by terminology too broad (socialization) and impossibly loaded (tolerance). This constructivist, grounded-theory study thus addresses the question through intercultural lenses. Chapter 2 reviews literature to propose a Process-Outcome Model of Socialization, a 10-pair categorization of critics' concerns, and introduces a reconceptualization of Perry's (1970) scheme of epistemological development for a faith-based university. Chapter 3 describes data-collection. In Southern California, strategies include participant observation, interview, focus-group, narrative, written reflection about Emerson & Smith's (2000) Divided by Faith, and case study response. In metropolitan DC, shorter measures confirm theoretical saturation. Chapter 4 presents 20 participants' intercultural journeys. Chapter 5 traces cognition. Chapter 6 outlines motivation, describing intercultural self-efficacy, initiative, and perceived value. Chapter 7 offers evidence of metacognition. Chapter 8 provides the missing piece—concern—as the connector of knowledge and desire, showing that the most intense reflection and regulation operate based on higher commitments (metaphysical, existential, and ethical). Chapter 9 integrates core categories to present two new models. One shows the complementarity of CQ and concern. The other unites them as Sustainable Cultural Concern (SCC), a model explaining why some people grow in intercultural capacities while others do not. Three assertions underlie these models: a) concern is a meta-commitment that differs from motivation; b) CQ and border-crossing concern cooperate to sustain growth; c) a culturally-concerned person seeks to wed knowledge and desire according to concern. Though most participants display sustainable cultural concern, unconcerned outliers strongly suggest that homeschoolers and organizations should intentionally cultivate it. Methodologically, the models correct inconsistencies regarding homeschooling socialization and challenge the prevalence of quantitative studies. Theoretically, they highlight ambiguity and overlap in CQ domains and the disproportionate scope of metacognition. Practically, they guide personal evaluation of intercultural engagement and growth in perception (honor), understanding (humility), regulation (integrity), and volition (faithfulness).

▼ The study of children's literature from the South Asian diaspora has been mostly overlooked by postcolonial studies, cultural studies and children's literature studies alike. This thesis responds to this academic oversight and it is not only the first study to solely explore the diasporic experience presented in these novels, but also opens up an area of research which has great cross-disciplinary potential. At the centre of this thesis is the argument that existing theories of identity negotiation offer only partial explanations of how young, second generation individuals negotiate their cultural identities, and that children's literature, by contrast, illuminates an alternative means of identity formation. There is no definitive cultural identity model which focuses solely on how post-migrant generations, including foreign-born migrant children, negotiate their cultural identities. Yet the fiction this thesis examines demands the need for precisely such a model. Drawing on the works of Homi Bhabha, A vtar Brah and Stuart Hall, the model that emerges from the fiction is best identified as what I have termed: Overlapping Space. Engaging with a wide range of postcolonial, cultural and sociological theorists, the study focuses on novels published since 2000 and identifies how they offer a model of Overlapping Space identity formation. Engaging with Bali Rai's What's Your Problem? and Kavita Daswani's Indie Girl the thesis begins by identifying how issues of race and racism are still prevalent to contemporary concerns. Developing these concerns, the study draws on Marina Budhos's Ask Me No Questions and Mitali Perkins's First Daughter: Extreme American Makeover to investigate how media influences post-9/l1 have affected young peoples' cultural self-identities. Shifting the focus from imposed 'home'land cultural alienation to self-imposed 'homeland' cultural estrangement through abjection, the study identifies the psychological effects of visiting ancestral homelands as depicted in Vineeta Vijayaraghavan's Motherland and Mitali Perkins' Monsoon Summer in order to demonstrate the experience of emotional situational ethnicity through unexpected enculturations. Continuing with the discussion of emotional situational ethnicity, using Narinder Dhami's novelization Bend it Like Beckham and Baljinder K. Mahal's The Pocket Guide to Being an Indian Girl, this thesis explores how young second generation members of the South Asian diaspora navigate between 'peer' and 'parent' zones and analyses the significant role that subcultures can play in the approval of 'transgression'. Lastly, by focussing on Tanuja Desai Hidier's Born Confused and Bali Rai's The Last Taboo, this thesis continues its exploration in 'transgressive' behaviours and analyses the dating and interracial relationship cultural concerns presented in these two novels. By exploring these themes, issues and concerns, this study ultimately foregrounds each text's potential for bibliotherapy and demonstrates that, as well as making significant contributions to literature…

▼ Grit, the concept consisting of perseverance and passion towards a desired long-term goal, has been spotlighted as a key psychological resource that is predictive of positive life outcomes including academic achievement, professional success and subjective well-being. Despite its popularity within and outside of academia, much more needs to be researched before we can understand its properties and sociological utility. This dissertation explores the potential location of grit within various sociological discourses, including literature on agency, stratification, and perceived meritocracy. In addition, I explore the relationship between social status, subjective agency, the social valuation of grit, and grit cross-culturally to place grit within proper cultural and structural contexts. In Chapter 2, I propose the psychological notion of grit as a potentially useful variable in sociological analysis and explore its potential for contributing to addressing sociological concerns including human agency and stratification. Grit could work as a “behavioral engine” transforming subjective beliefs about agency (e.g., sense of control) to agentic practices that potentially produce better life outcomes. In Chapter 3, using new cross-cultural data collected from South Korea and the United States, I test the current measure of grit, the Grit-S scale, that is developed and predominantly tested in the United States, in two different countries, South Korea and the United States. I find in both countries grit is better understood as the concept consisting of two separate dimensions, perseverance and passion, rather than a global concept. In addition, I find the perseverance facet of grit, but not the passion facet, shows the distinctive utility in explaining subjective well-being beyond subjective agency (i.e., sense of control) in both countries. In Chapter 4, I analyze novel cross-cultural data collected from four nations (France, South Korea, Turkey and the United States) and find an indirect linkage between a person’s socioeconomic status and the level of grit through positive associations with the sense of control. That is, people with a higher socioeconomic status tend to hold stronger beliefs about one’s agency, and those who are strong believers in one’s control over life outcomes, in turn, are more likely to develop grit in these four countries. In Chapter 5, using the same cross-cultural data used in Chapter 3, I investigate the social valuation of grit and whether and how the valuation of grit is associated with individual development of grit in South Korea and the United States. In both countries, grit is valued as a desirable virtue that leads to success in life. However, there is within-society variance: people from lower social statuses tend to value grit as a virtue that leads to success more than those from higher statuses in both country samples. In addition, I find people with a higher sense of control are more likely to value grit as a virtue, and valuing grit is positively… Advisors/Committee Members: Hitlin, Steven (supervisor).
