Full textVanderford, Audrey L. "Political pranks : the performance of radical humor." Thesis, University of Oregon, 2000. http://hdl.handle.net/1794/11764.
Full textThis thesis examines the performance of political pranks by contemporary radical activists and anarchists. Pranks, used symbolically to subvert authority and collapse hierarchy, have become important tools for grassroots political movements. Activists utilize pranks as a form of "culture jamming" to undermine, humiliate, and educate. This thesis documents political pranks pulled by Earth First!, the Yippies, the Biotic Baking Brigade, and the Eugene Anarchists for Torrey (EAT) Campaign to show how pranks are performed and narrated within anarchist subcultures. Drawing on cultural and performance studies, as well as on anarchist theories, this thesis demonstrates how pranks can become performances of resistance and criticism that disrupt the status quo.

Full textHeir to the Italian comedy of Dino Risi and Mario Monicelli, Ugo Giorgetti, movie director from São Paulo, reflects in his feature film Sábado the tradition of melancholy and self-derision represented by the writers Laurence Sterne, Xavier de Maistre and Machado de Assis. The cold mood director does not deny the joke, although he forgoes to it sometimes in search of an historic awareness of their audience to a state of social ruin. It is a movie in which the halftones, not the comic warmth, evoke the abandonment of running the country, devoid of the mediating institutions as government and justice.
