Abstract:

This is a study of migration from the parish of St. Elizabeth in Jamaica, 1954-1962. The thesis attempts to integrate the literature relating to debates in the sociology of migration and the sociology of race and ethnic relations. We begin with a discussion of theoretical issues raised in the literature with regard to migration and labour. These raised questions about structure and agency. We emphasise the passage between cultures and the significance of biographies, work histories and kinship. Chapters 3 and 4 examine the context of migration in the 1940s and 1950s from the background of rural Jamaican society and focuses upon the parish of St. Elizabeth and a series of interviews with some septuagenarians. Chapters 5 to 11 focus upon the life experiences of the people who migrated. We pay particular attention to the reasons for migration, experiences of British society and racism, how they obtained jobs and pursued their concern for a better life. In this we raise questions about the way in which aspects of St. Elizabethan culture fitted them to cope with British society. We pay particular attention to kinship, savings and credit schemes and their attitudes towards education as a source of social mobility. Chapters 12 and 13 look at the children of the migrants and particularly their experience of education and family relations. In this we identify important sources of variation in the experience of the second generation. We explore these in Chapters 14 and 15 through questions relating to social class and social identity. Throughout the thesis has relied upon detailed informal interviews, life history and participant observation as research techniques. These were all used to facilitate our understanding of the qualitative side of the migrants' experience.

Abstract:

Fotballkulturen har vært gjennom en stor transformasjon ved å omgjøre seg til en kommersiell bedrift. Opphevelsen av maksimumslønn, etablering av tv-avtaler, omgjøring av stå-stadioner til sete-stadioner og ikke minst etableringen av Premier League er de viktigste endringene innen fotballen i England. Min studie tar for seg supporternes reaksjon og holdning til transformasjonen av fotballen på bakgrunn av at fotball har gått fra å være folkets sport til å bli en kommersiell bedrift eid av eiere som ønsker å tjene penger på sporten. Denne oppgaven er en casestudie av Manchester Uniteds supporteres reaksjon på kommersialiseringen av klubben og ikke minst Glazers eierskap. Studien skisserer tre ulike måter supporterne reagerer ut i fra: tilbaketrekning, motstand eller tilpasning. Jeg trekker også inn norske fans sin rolle i denne situasjonen ut i fra deres tilknytning til klubben og hvordan de forholder seg til kommersialiseringen og Glazer i forhold til de lokale supporterne. Studien supplerer en fotballsosiologisk perspektiv, eller nærmere sagt en sosiologisk innfallsvinkel av supporterkulturen i England. Studien er basert på supporternes perspektiv på transformasjonen som har skjedd og deres synspunkt på Glazers eierskap og hva de mener eierskapet har gjort med kulturen deres. Denne studien bidrar til en forståelse av hvorfor og hvordan supporterne reagerer ut i fra deres tilknytning, identitet og kjærlighet til klubben, med tanke på at klubben er en del av supporternes kultur og tilknytning til samfunnet. Supporterne mener kommersialiseringen truer deres tilknytning til klubben og blir derfor sett på som kunstig i deres øyne. Analysen og diskusjonen vil legge vekt på hva det er supporterne reagerer på og hvordan de reagerer ut i fra deres forståelse av reglene på feltet. Og norske fans tilknytning til Manchester United og deres holdning til Glazers eierskap. Denne studien bidrar til å nyansere debatten om kommersialiseringen av fotballen og om dette er med på å forbedre supporterkulturen, eller om den setter supporterkulturen i fare.

Abstract:

This thesis examines the history of the Manchester Art Museum (Manchester, England), which was founded by Thomas Coglan Horsfall (1841-1932) in 1886. It considers the museum’s permanent collections and its programming from 1886 to 1898 with brief notes on the later years of the institution. While, like previous work on the Manchester Art Museum, the thesis contextualizes the museum within Victorian arts and community institutions, it breaks new ground by highlighting the ways in which it diverged from these institutions. The analysis of the museum’s collections and programming emphasizes the contributions that Horsfall and the Art Museum Committee made to museum education through the museum’s circulating loan collections and school tours.

Abstract:

Ce mémoire porte sur l'interprétation de la Seconde Guerre des Boers (1899-1902) dans la presse britannique et plus précisément au travers des publications du London Times et du Manchester Guardian. Par l'étude de leurs articles traitant de la guerre, nous retraçons l'opinion véhiculée par ces journaux en lien avec le conflit tout au long de sa durée. À l'aide d'une analyse qualitative et comparative, nous étudions s'il y a une remise en question des idées préétablies dans la presse écrite du début des hostilités en octobre 1899 jusqu'à leur arrêt en mai 1902. Nos résultats indiquent qu'il n'y a aucune réelle évolution de l'opinion transmise par les deux journaux au sujet de la guerre sud-africaine. Le London Times s'affiche de façon évidente aux idéaux du parti conservateur qui appuie cette guerre alors que le Manchester Guardian se campe sur le positionnement antimilitariste du parti libéral. Seul l'argumentaire s'adapte aux différents événements marquants de ce conflit qui influencent les débats dans la presse anglaise, et ce, malgré la nature polémique de ce conflit colonial considéré comme la dernière guerre impérialiste de l'ère moderne.

Abstract:

This thesis presents results obtained during 2007/08 in the course of doctoral research into attitudes towards linguistic variation in England and Austria and is based in part on a study by Lees (2000). In this project attitudes amongst British and Austrian informants towards low-prestige ('dialect') and high-prestige varieties are investigated on the basis of assumptions made about speakers of these varieties. The data are collected by means of the 'matched-guise technique', whereby informants listen to a number of recordings of low and high-prestige varieties and note their reactions on the basis of a selection of traits using a semantic differential. In this way the research aims to ascertain whether a pattern emerges, where the informants' perception of the guises is influenced by the prestige of the spoken variety. The results in England and in Austria are compared in order to determine similarities and differences in language attitudes towards low and high-prestige varieties in the two countries. Some results presented here correspond to certain social expectations, with high-prestige speakers being associated with better-paid employment and a better education. Other results, though, are less predictable, as where, for example, the female informants in England and in Austria judge the speakers more positively than the male informants, regardless of the prestige of the speaker's variety. In any case, there is evidence from both countries of the informants' evaluations of the speaker being influenced by their associations of the speaker's variety with that speaker's social status. The data also indicate that the social status of speakers in England is judged to a greater extent on the basis of their spoken variety than is the case in Austria, where speakers are more used to switching freely between points on the standard-dialect continuum and are consequently less judgemental in their perception of a speaker based purely on the evidence of their spoken variety.

Abstract:

This thesis attempts to make a useful contribution to our picture of the development of early nineteenth-century provincial liberalism. It investigates various political, social and economic aspects of liberalism in Manchester and draws attention to the ideas and activities of a small and identifiable group of respectable reformers who were active in the town in the first half of the nineteenth century and who had a significant impact on local affairs. Much has been written about Victorian Manchester and about Manchester politics in the era of Chartism, the Anti-Corn Law League and the so-called 'Manchester School'. This thesis seeks to elucidate and explain some of the less explored developments which were antecedent to and shaped these later events and movements. The main avenue of inquiry is provided by the public careers of a 'small but determined band' of reformers (as they were called by one of their number, Richard Potter), men who involved themselves in numerous political campaigns and who also pioneered a new kind of political journalism in the provinces. Archibald Prentice and John Edward Taylor in particular made the newspaper a vital organ in the formation and direction of liberal opinion. These men represented prominent features of Mancunian liberalism in the years before parliamentary reform and incorporation, and the main concern of the thesis is to illustrate these features by investigating the principles and campaigns of this reformist vanguard. Attention is paid to the band's political and theological precepts and motivations, to the examples and encouragement provided by earlier Manchester reformers, to the key role of the local reformist press in the work of enlightenment and mobilisation, to the liberals' battles with Manchester's mainly Tory-Anglican ruling party on certain local government issues, to the band's involvement in campaigns and discussions relating to important social questions such as education, health and welfare, poverty and labour relations, to the band's participation in commercial campaigns and the movement against the corn laws, and to their views and activities on the central question of parliamentary reform. The most important primary sources for this study are to be found in Manchester. The newspapers are invaluable; there are also substantial collections of contemporary pamphlets and miscellaneous ephemera which provide essential information as well as the material necessary for an appreciation of the wider Manchester setting. Members of the band have left certain materials - correspondence, scrapbooks, lectures, books and pamphlets, reminiscences and personal records - which are of importance when used alongside their letters, articles and editorials in the local newspapers.

Abstract:

The emergence of Britain’s black population is often attributed to the arrival of the MV Empire Windrush into Tilbury Docks, London, England on 22nd June 1948. This event is now marked as the genesis of Britain’s multi-cultural character, along with the emergent social problems of racism(s), discriminations and racialized inequalities. Yet, whilst oft told, the story is imprecise, inextricably bound up within the development of a pathological and ‘dangerous’ sociology (Bourne and Sivanandan 1980). The sociology of race relations has served to produce, impose and maintain pathological constructions of the black immigrant as ‘economic migrant’, being those who were pushed away from the poverty of the Caribbean and pulled towards the prosperity afforded by the post-war British economy. Furthermore, the post-war black immigrant becomes imbue with an unassimilable culture that impedes their absorption into British society. Today, the subtext of the ‘Windrush story’ endures, still serviced by a ‘race relations’ industry but also accompanied by pathological Criminologies, astute in the production of objects, its knowledge base is episodically evoked by politicians and policy-makers to arouse the (social, economic and cultural) problems attributed to unchecked immigration. Within this context research conversations capture the stories of ten families who migrated from Jamaica to Manchester in England, UK. Drawing upon Narrative Identity Theory (McAdams 1993, Maruna 2001), self- (and contested) identities emerged inductively as central to the families’ experiences. Further, family stories reveal the self through recollections of (social) interactions with a generalised British other. Critically, particular encounters emerged as significant events, attributed with arousing that sensation of difference, a consciousness of an otherness. It is within such ‘disruptive encounters’ that otherisation occurs, necessitating a (re)negotiation of imposed and imagined definitions and identities. In defiance of and in resisting the imposition of negative (culturally maladjusted and criminally endowed) constructions of Jamaican identity, a Britishness is produced and claimed by the family’s which marks their perpetual migration toward the (British) Other.

Abstract:

碩士 國立臺北大學 都市計劃研究所 103 Statement architecture in design-led regeneration is not a new concept in urban planning in the UK. Globalisation and capitalism forced industrial cities to change, and several regeneration programmes were created. The popularity of statement architecture in design-led regeneration is evident in the landscape. It is a double-edged sword, on the one side it regenerates decaying areas while on the other it creates new social issues. It is worth considering, therefore, whether statement architecture in design-led regeneration is suited to contemporary needs in England. This research uses a case study in New Islington, the industrial area of Manchester, toexplore this issue in depth from the perspective of those involved in contemporary design-led regeneration in England.

Abstract:

This diploma thesis deals with the reception of the newly established Czechoslovakia by the British press from 1918 to 1922. My task was to find out how often and in what context did Czechoslovakia appear in the press and what was the difference between the image of the republic in each newspaper. Secondarily, my task was to evaluate the success of the Czechoslovak propaganda in Britain. The thesis consists of two parts. The first part presents the context of the emergence of Czechoslovakia, Czechoslovak-British diplomacy aims and cultural propaganda in the given period. One chapter is dedicated to the history of the British press and includes profiles of the journals examined. The practical part incorporates both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Four broadsheets in total were analysed; The Times, The Manchester Guardian, The Daily Telegraph and a Sunday newspaper The Observer. Quantitative content analysis of The Times was used to determine the frequency, the length and the interest of the mentions of Czechoslovakia as well as the theme of the articles. Based on the quantitative analysis, sample time periods were selected for the qualitative section. The qualitative analysis further deepens the quantitative part and presents the explicit and implicit attributes that Czechoslovakia was...
