This document charts my development as an artist over the last five years on the Professional Doctorate in Fine Art at the University of East London. It begins with a reflection on the work done on B.A and M.A. in Fine Art, at Middlesex University and the University of East London respectively. The origin of my work lies in traumatic and painful life experiences that at the time of their occurrence almost effectively ended my practice. In hindsight it is clear that these experiences have provided the continuing motivation for my research and art practice, as well as its content. The report pre

Abstract:

In the past, the power of news dissemination was under a few people's control, like newspapers' editors and TV channels. Thanks to social networks, this power is in the hand of everyone now. Social networks became very popular as soon as they were launched, and many societies extensively welcomed them. They have provided an engaging environment so that people can share their moments with their relatives, friends, colleagues, and even their unseen friends (so-called virtual friends) as their `followers.' In this virtual world, people can also share their opinions with their followers by broadca

Abstract:

Este trabalho analisa – sob a forma de um estudo de caso de natureza exploratória – o problema da relação entre a função controladoria e o controle social. Na administração pública, a controladoria é a função responsável pela interface com a população, e a obrigatoriedade de garantir transparência e accountability pressiona a produção de informações confiáveis e tempestivas da parte dos gestores públicos. A escolha da Rede Observatório Social do Brasil (OSB) para um estudo de caso se justifica por ser esta uma organização dedicada a monitorar as administrações públicas municipais, utilizando s

Abstract:

Social networks started as a place to comfortably connect with your friends. With them, we can communicate our thoughts and opinions over different topics and reach a large portion of users, even those who are not on your friend’s list. This has led to making social networks a crucial part of many of us, providing for example information, entertainment, and learning. Many users prefer to access social networks, like Facebook or Twitter, to have access to news as they provide faster means for information diffusion. However, as a consequence, online social networks are also exploited as a tool t

Abstract:

Psychosocial problems are psychological problems that are regarded as resulting from the interaction between the adaptive capacities of individuals and the demands of their physical and social environments. Many different factors have been theoretically proposed, and empirically established, as predictors of a range of psychosocial problems in adolescents. However, a problem exists in that this literature appears to lack an integrative framework that has validity across the range of problems that are observed. The purpose of the current research is to propose and test a model that draws t

This thesis offers an investigation into the social construction and social control of the asylum 'problem' in the UK. It explores how asylum came to be constructed as a key social problem, how this process of problematisation influenced the development of a range of social control strategies and how their imposition has shaped subsequent developments. Asylum has been associated with a range of contemporary social problems and has become an issue through which wider insecurities are articulated.

Critical and symbolic interactionist sociological theory is used as a means to understand the data. This dissertation specifically concerns how social networking websites shape identity, result in a more self-reflexive presentation of self, and serve as a means of both socialization and social control.

Abstract:

The two criminological theories that conflict most sharply in terms of their fundamental assumptions about human nature and social order are control theory and cultural deviance theory. This research tests two major hypotheses derived from these theories. The first is that norms regulating the use of "force and fraud" are universal, and the second is that deviant behavior is caused by parents' failure to adequately socialize their children. The first hypothesis is tested through an analysis of the sanctioning practices of 100 cultures, drawn from the Human Relations Area Files. The results ind

Abstract:

One remarkable feature of social interactions is spontaneous mimicry. People have a tendency to unconsciously imitate other’s behaviours. This mimicry increases liking and affiliation between individuals and plays an important role in social cognition. Though mimicry is not normally consciously controlled, past research suggests that people mimic differently across social situations. In order to better understand the flexibility of mimicry in socal contexts, this thesis examined how social signals impact on mimicry by using a cognitive approach.

Breastfeeding remains problematic in our society despite its being a 'natural' physiological process, its official encouragement as the healthiest way to feed babies and its revival in popularity amongst mothers over the last thirty years. Many mothers give up early and turn to bottle-feeding, and a substantial minority choose not to breastfeed at all. The aim of this research was to study mothers' feeding experiences in the context of the culture and organisation of western industrialised society.

Little research has examined deviance within this group.

A theoretical consideration of social control critically examines traditions which have related economic strategies to political resistance and to the role of the state.

Abstract:

Social media has become an integral part of the Internet and has revolutionized interpersonal communication. The lines of separation between content creators and content consumers have blurred as normal users have platforms such as social media sites, blogs and microblogs at their disposal on which they can create and consume content as well as have the opportunity to interact with other users. This change has also led to several well documented privacy problems for the users. The privacy problems faced by social media users can be categorized into institutional privacy (related to the social

Abstract:

Users of social networking services such as Facebook often want to manage the sharing of information and content with diﬀerent groups of people based on their diﬀering relationships. The growing popularity of such services has meant that users are increasingly faced with the copresence of diﬀerent groups associated with diﬀerent aspects of their lives, within their network of contacts. However, few users are utilising the group-based privacy controls provided to them by the SNS provider. In this thesis we examine the reasons behind the lack of use of group-based privacy controls, ﬁnding that i

Abstract:

In this research I have examined the relationship between an aspect of teacher education and the ideology of social control. Taking the Professional Studies Credit of a B.Ed. Honours year course, I examine the ways in which the Credit serves to develop those qualities which support the dominant social order both overtly and implicitly. I suggest that both the planning and the implementation of the Credit take place within constraining parameters and that they embody contradictions and tensions, which correspond very broadly to developments in wider society. Use of the concepts of practical the

Abstract:

This sociological study of medical school culture employed a critical framework for analysis of ideological reproduction and social control. A literature review provided a social-historical context for the empirical findings that focused on student-faculty discourse at one college of medicine during the third-year Family and Community Medicine clerkship. Data collection consisted of audio recording and observation in both classroom and clinical settings. A depth hermeneutical analysis was used to answer three research questions. For question 1, "What is the macro medical social context within
