Abstract:

This thesis develops three independent lines of investigation on the social psychology of political action and social change. Rather than developing a grand theory, I focus on adapting current perspectives in the social psychology of emotion, automaticity, goals and mental simulation to the study of political action and social change. The approach taken is eclectic both theoretically and methodologically. In Chapter 1, I review the social psychology of political action and social change. In doing so, I conceptualise political action and social change and explore current explanations of these p

Abstract:

Before Al Gore's 2005 documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" ignited general public concern for the worsening environmental crisis, artists played a crucial role in both exemplifying ecological concerns and in building alternative living and social arrangements. They did so with a sense of "creative responsibility" that formal political and legal institutions seemed incapable of harnessing or acting upon. This thesis looks at how such activist aesthetic movements occurring simultaneously in Toronto and Windsor, Ontario, unleashed a form of "constituent imagination" at once critical, constructive

Abstract:

English<br>Ph.D.<br>This dissertation investigates why literary dreams of the West have been categorically dismissed as mythical. Western critics and authors, ranging from Thomas Jefferson to Owen Wister to Patricia Nelson Limerick, have sought to override dreams of the West by representing the western genre as, in Jane Tompkins’ words, a “craving for material reality.” This focus on authenticity betrays an antipathy to the imagination, which is often assumed to be fantastical, escapist, or utopian – groundless, and therefore useless. Such a prejudice, however, has blinded scholars to the valu

Abstract:

In organisation studies there has been an increasing interest in ‘identity work' – that is, the processes through which people's identities become constructed. The role that others play, along with the self, in identity work has, with varying degrees of emphasis, been a recurrent theme both in the contemporary literature and in its classical antecedents. Extant research leaves scope for further investigation of how others are present within identity working processes and this thesis is primarily concerned with the elaboration and understanding of the centrality of others to the working of iden

Abstract:

This thesis explores how writers mobilise what I call the “social-scientific imagination” to think through the welfare state during its “golden age.” Given the ongoing rollback of welfare programmes in Britain and elsewhere, the study offers timely insight into the history of the welfare state and its possible future. To that end, the chapters concentrate on postwar writers’ indirect and mediated representations of the welfare state in the form of a “social-scientific imagination” manifested in both cultural ideology and literary style. The term “social-scientific imagination” describes these

Abstract:

This thesis demonstrates how literary and medical authors explored changing concepts of childbirth and reproductive medicine between the years 1737 and 1798. Considerable changes took place during this period that transformed birth from a social rite of passage into a medical event. Questions such as who and what was involved in reproduction, how childbirth was managed by individuals and communities, as well as how common understanding about these matters were reached, were brought to the fore in a way that they had never before been raised. A key means by which these ideas were communicated w

This dissertation recasts the history of sociology in the United States by focusing on one the discipline’s most surprising and neglected sources: the poetry of Walt Whitman (1819 -1892). Tracing the period in intellectual history—from, roughly, the end of the U.S. Civil War to the country’s entry into World War II—in which sociology emerged from a confluence of reform movements and cohered in the university, I seek to demonstrate how the recirculation of Whitman’s Leaves of Grass across some of the founding texts of social science in the United States helped furnish the conceptual vocabulary

This paper is an empirical study examining the reasoning behind Swedish adults’ choices of attending Korean language programs in the Republic of Korea. By using anthropological modes of inquiry and methods such as participant observation and different qualitative interviews, the focus of the research is on the mental processes behind these choices. Through a utilization of the analytical concept of imagination, what is argued is that these individuals’ choices are engendered and regulated by several factors, such as engagement with Korean culture-products and certain practical conditions, but

Abstract:

Alexandre Soumet, poète aujourd'hui oublié, a pourtant bel et bien marqué son époque. Académicien, cofondateur de la revue "La Muse française" avec Victor Hugo, il peine pourtant à choisir entre l'esthétique classique et romantique. Fidèle à l'idéologie allemande, faisant du romantisme un courant à la fois philosophique et poétique, il est également un fervent adepte de l'illuminisme à la façon de Swendenborg et Novalis. Notre étude vise à souligner la quête initiatique de notre chantre oublié dans laquelle la figure du poète (et donc d'Orphée) est centrale. Il s'agira tout d'abord d'analyser

Abstract:

Le rôle philosophique du théâtre : éprouver et penser vise à montrer comment philosophie et théâtre se retrouvent dans une quête commune de vérité. En nous basant sur une démarche empiriste, nous voyons comment au théâtre comme en philosophie, il s'agit avant tout d'interroger la réalité perçue et de proposer différentes orientations, en sachant que le théâtre suscite d'abord une expérience vivante et sensible bien qu'imaginaire. La problématique est: en quoi l'imaginaire théâtral et le travail corporel qu'il implique constituent-ils des éléments essentiels de la (ou d'une) recherche rationnel

Abstract:

Quelle est l’utilité du philosophe en politique ? L’objet du présent travail est d’interroger la manière dont cette question a pu être posée et la façon dont on a pu y répondre, en France, dans les années qui vont du milieu du XVIIIe siècle jusqu’à 1780 environ. Dans un contexte qui se caractérise à la fois par l’omniprésence du discours philosophique et par son absence d’autonomie, on se propose de cerner la façon dont sont identifiés les effets possibles des écrits politiques des philosophes. Deux problèmes se posent alors. D’une part, il s’agit de déterminer à quelles conditions le discours

Abstract:

This ethnography examines the processes in which rooted but overlapping forms of cosmopolitan engagements implicate the Tausug imagination of collectivity. It investigates Tausug expression of connection and belonging as they find themselves entangled into global cultural flow and caught up in the state and secessionist politics of attachment. Utilising methodological and theoretical approaches engendered by visual and material anthropology, the ethnography locates rooted cosmopolitan imagination in the works and lives of creative but marginalised and often silenced Tausug cultural agents enga

Abstract:

The prevailing discourse of “resistance vs. acceptance” in IT implementation research mostly personalizes the issue as “users” versus IT implementers (e.g., managers, CIOs, CMIOs, etc.). This kind of discourse has created an IT-implementer-centric attitude among IS scholars and practitioners. The IT-implementer-centric attitude, while embraces “acceptance” as a desirable reaction almost unconditionally, frequently holds for minimizing or more conservatively suppressing “resistance” to IT implementation. In other words, the mainstream IT implementation research, almost completely, treats “users
