Abstract:
Within the social sciences, the extensive literature on homosexuality as a socio-cultural construct and on ‘queer’ identities and experiences generally focuses on Western European or Anglo-American societies. Sexuality and homosexuality remain relatively unexplored fields of enquiry within Russian studies, even if it is usually acknowledged that the complex transformations undergone by Russian society since the fall of the communist system have deeply affected sexual practices and attitudes to sex and sexuality.

Abstract:
This thesis explores various expressions of urban identity by considering how they were conceived and perpetuated by individuals and groups alike. Using the city of Lincoln as a case study, it focuses primarily upon civic officials and other middling to wealthy inhabitants, analyses their use and appropriation of urban space and explores a series of socio-religious, economic and institutional changes, c.1288-1400. It also details the extent to which urban-crown relations and the demographic crisis of the Black Death were significant factors in the formation of these identities. The first of fi

This thesis examines perceptions of social difference by white residents of South African cities in general, and Durban in particular, with regard to urban racial desegregation.

As cities have undergone a process of desegregation over the last two decades, the people who believed in the appropriateness of racial segregation have been thrown into crisis. This crisi

Abstract:
Urban Education<br>Ph.D.<br>Grounded in theories of culturally relevant and hip-hop pedagogies, this ethnographic study of a demographically diverse "community nominated" cohort of urban public high school teachers who integrate hip-hop pedagogies into their English/language arts classrooms responds to the methodological and theoretical shortcomings of a burgeoning body of research known as "hip-hop based education" (HHBE). HHBE has argued that curriculum and pedagogy derived from hip-hop culture can be used to transmit disciplinary knowledge, improve student motivation, teach critical media l

Abstract:
This research explores popular constructions of “healthiness” as individual lifestyle choices in the context of contemporary South African consumer culture, and how these constructions relate to formations of subjectivity. This is a qualitative study conducted within a social constructionist, theoretical framework. Data was collected using in-depth, semi structured interviews and are analysed using a Foucauldian inspired version of discourse analysis. A critical stance is taken towards the assumption in these discourses that their version of healthiness is always and unquestionably positive. S

Abstract:
Le graffiti hip-hop est un objet d’étude à la croisée de la sociologie urbaine, de l’art, de la jeunesse et du droit. Autour de cet objet, les représentations divergent, entre art et vandalisme. L’hypothèse ici retenue est que, sous l’angle des critères permettant d’authentifier la valeur d’un graffiti, la démarche transgressive de son auteur prime autant que ses qualités picturales. Il y aurait une relation dialogique entre pratiques « vandales » et pratiques « artistiques ». Dans un premier temps, cette thèse s’attache à retranscrire comment des jeunes intègrent le mouvement graffiti et quel
