Abstract:
Early research on mobile phone adoption among fishers followed an economistic perspective, focusing mainly on access to market price information. Researchers called for investigations into collective and cooperative uses of the technology. Responding to these calls, we explored Burmese fishers’ use of mobile phones in the realms of social life and business, mainly related to information seeking and sharing among the community. Interviews with 23 fishers in three regions in Myanmar suggested that both social and commercial, as well as individual- and community-oriented, uses were prevalent. Mobile phones helped channel information on price and market demand among a limited number of fishers, especially the boat owners and fish dealers. The other segments in the fishing labor hierarchy desisted from individual ownership of the phone, while opting for a more community-based appropriation. A nuanced picture of use and non-use of mobiles emerged alongside fishers’ socio-economic status and patterns of fishing.

Abstract:
AbstractCultural appropriation involves the unauthorized use of elements of another culture (e.g., voice, practices, image or name) to the appropriator's commercial advantage. Cultural appropriation is experienced by some Native American cultures as an attack on their integrity which jeopardizes their very survival. The case of the Hopi Indians of Arizona is examined. The essay goes on to explore and evaluate various recourses which Native American peoples might employ to check the vulgarization and commercialization of their culture—namely the right to privacy, copyright, and the right of publicity. It is concluded that, to maximize cultural preservation, the right of publicity should be deployed.

Abstract:
This article uses an ethnographic case-study approach to investigate the deployment of the mobile phone by Zimbabwean mainstream print journalists in the dynamics of their daily professional routines and practices. The study’s theoretical and conceptual framework draws on social constructivist approaches to technology and the sociology of journalism to provide a direction for conceptualizing the interplay between journalists, their immediate context of practice and the wider socio-political and economic milieu that collectively structure and constrain the appropriation of the mobile phone. The findings suggest that the technology has assumed a taken-for-granted role in the routine operations of journalists and, in particular, that it is redefining traditional newsmaking practices. The article concludes that the cultural and social appropriations of the mobile phone by Zimbabwean mainstream journalists suggest that the technology has acquired new meanings in the social context of its appropriation. Its pervasiveness in everyday life has facilitated the blurring of the boundaries between the work and the private life of journalists.

Abstract:
As formulated in classical Marxism, hegemony referred to the unique position of the working class as the only independent revolutionary force under capitalism, as well as its political and ideological relations leading other social groups. Today hegemony typically refers instead to a constellation of arguments that regard a revolutionary orientation as hopeless and deny the unique political position of the working class. I examine the theoretical and political significance of this change by reflecting on Gramsci’s elaboration of hegemony and its dubious appropriation by post-Marxism, broadly understood.

Abstract:
Based on research in the old Recife Quarter in the city of Recife, capital of Pernambuco state, Brazil, this study examines processes of gentrification in areas of heritage value. The article focuses on the way in which these urban policies have transformed cultural heritage into a commodity, and urban space into social relationships mediated by consumerism. I argue that heritage sites that undergo processes of gentrification create strong spatial segregation and generate an appropriation of space by the excluded population that takes the form of counter-uses, undermining the uses imagined by urban and heritage policy makers.

Abstract:
The interaction between early Christianity and the Judaism from which it emerged took many and diverse forms, and Christians’ attitudes toward their Jewish heritage varied considerably. The Epistle to the Hebrews represents a particularly complex case of both the appropriation and the rejection of that heritage. This ambivalent attitude reaches its climax in the central expository section of the text, where the significance of the death of Christ is explored using primarily the analogy of the Yom Kippur sacrifice. This portion of Hebrews is replete with exegetical difficulties which cannot be resolved here. What this essay will attempt is an analysis of the literary techniques through which the model of the Yom Kippur ritual is appropriated.

Abstract:
Cultural appropriation, also called cultural borrowing, has been the topic of much discussion in recent years. Roughly speaking, cultural appropriation happens when someone outside of a cultural or ethnic group takes or uses some object that is characteristic or in some way important to the group without the group’s permission. Individuals who find cultural appropriation (or borrowing) unproblematic have often argued that if we express moral criticism of the use of traditional Sami outfits by non-Sami, then we are logically committed to criticize all kinds of habits that are clearly acceptable –such as using jeans, eating pizza or drinking tea. However, we will argue that in many cases that objection is problematic. We point out that if one social habit or practice is prohibited (or supported) by existing social conventions but another is not, then there is a convention difference between the cases. The convention difference is in turn a morally relevant difference, or so we aim to show. We refer to “moderate conventionalism,” according to which existing social conventions are morally relevant facts that should be taken into account when choosing how to act, whatever the content of the conventions happens to be. The claim is analogous with the traditional view that laws have some moral relevance and binding force independent of their content. Keywords: cultural appropriation, conventionalism, moderate conventionalism, convention difference

Abstract:
AbstractThis essay begins with a retrospective survey of theological responses to psychology over the last seventy-five years. These are organized by the way in which they have been shaped by two underlying religious concerns: the necessity to defend against the diminishment of the human as oriented to the transcendent (the “Catholic” position) and the concern to protect the divine against its reduction to the merely human (the “Protestant” position). In the final two sections of the essay I consider how, prospectively, the theological appropriation of psychologymay enter a new phase first with a reformulation of thetask of theological reflection, exemplified by Tracy's model of mutual critical correlation, and secondly by the emergence of neopsychoanalytic theory as a new dialogue partner with theology. The potential significance of the latter is explored by examining its influence on the soteriological projects of Jürgen Moltmann and Sebastian Moore.

Abstract:
La présente thèse de doctorat porte sur la médiatisation de la religion et l'utilisation des réseaux sociaux numériques dans la culture professionnelle du clergé ainsi que sur l'intégration de l'innovation numérique dans les organisations religieuses semi-fermées. Stout (2012) aborde la problématique des systèmes ouverts versus fermés par rapport aux médias, suggérant que le clergé et les paroissiens devraient «développer des compétences critiques pour évaluer les messages religieux partout où ils apparaissent» (Stout, 2012, p.66). Il analyse la capacité et la volonté des communautés religieuses d'établir leurs propres médias, que ce soit les médias traditionnels ou les nouveaux médias, d'une part, et le degré d'ouverture en ce qui concerne l'exposition aux médias laïques, y compris les produits et contenu de la culture pop, mettant ainsi en place le cadre de discussion pour l'utilisation des médias dans les organisations religieuses semi-fermées.En outre, cette recherche est appliquée au cas du clergé et des croyants roumains de l'Église Adventiste du Septième Jour (SDAC) et vise à souligner comment l'Internet et les nouveaux médias sont vécus par les pasteurs adventistes dans leur activité religieuse ainsi que par les croyants adventistes. la vie religieuse quotidienne. La communication des doctrines, des enseignements religieux et spirituels, sous forme écrite ou verbale, sont les activités principales des groupes pastoraux et paroissiaux. La recherche montre également une mentalité pro-technologique significative du SDAC tout au long du siècle dernier, et sa motivation - liée à la possibilité de répandre le message évangélique
The present doctoral thesis is focused on the mediatisation of religion and the use of digital social networks in the professional culture of the clergy as well as on the integration of digital innovation in semi-closed religious organizations. The problematic of open versus closed systems in relation to media is approached by Stout (2012), who suggests that clergy and parishioners ought to “develop critical skills to assess religious messages wherever they appear” (Stout, 2012, p. 66). He analyses the capacity and willingness of religious communities to establish their own media, whether it’s traditional or new media, on the one hand, and on the other hand, the degree of openness when it comes to exposure to secular media, which includes products and content of pop culture, thus setting-up the frame of discussion for the use of media in semi-closed religious organizations.Furthermore, this research is applied to the case of the Romanian Seventh-Day Adventist Church (SDAC) clergy and believers and intends to highlight how the Internet and new media are experienced by Adventist pastors in their religious activity as well as by Adventist believers in their everyday religious life. Communication of doctrines, religious and spiritual teachings, in written or verbal form are the main activities of the both pastoral and parishioners’ groups. The research also shows a significant pro-technological mentality of the SDAC throughout the last century, and its motivation – related to the opportunity to spread the evangelical message

Public parks are important places for leisure in big cities. Despite the large number of parks in Goiania, the most structured are located in central areas, which difficults the population access to this type of public facility. The Flamboyant Park is among the most structured in the city, becoming a leisure alternative for a portion of the population. To understand how the appropriation process has occurred as well as its use for leisure activities, it was necessary to perform a theoretical review about leisure, to verify how the park implementation has occurred, which are its characteristics and the various recreational uses identified during the field research. An analysis of form and content of the Park and of the profile, use and perceptions of the respondents allowed uncovering a little more about the social and political dynamics that shape and permeate the city of Goiania. Under the assumption that shape reveals contents, the landscape analysis has revealed current ideologies and contradictions in the city. The fact that the park has a superior structure compared to parks located in peripheral districts demonstrates the investment from public authorities aiming to meet the interests of property market agents. As to the ownership of this public space, the research has revealed that the regular goers, the ones who in fact appropriate the park, are the ones who live nearby, or who possess individual means of transportation capable of providing quick access to the location. Therefore, a large part of the population is excluded from this ownership, as they never go to the park or only seldom visit it. Despite this segregating character, the park contributes to a life quality improvement and increases sociability of a large part of the goianiense population, which can be observed by the several leisure practices identified in this space. The difference between programmed behavior and transgressing behavior stands out among these activities, which demonstrates the richness and complexity of meanings a space can reveal.
Os parques públicos são importantes espaços destinados ao lazer nas grandes cidades. Apesar do grande número de parques existentes em Goiânia, os mais estruturados estão localizados em bairros centrais, dificultando a apropriação da maioria da população por esse tipo de equipamento público. O Parque Flamboyant está entre os mais estruturados da cidade, passando, após sua implantação, a ser uma alternativa de lazer para parcela da população. Para compreender como se deu esse processo de apropriação e usos para lazer no parque, foi necessário fazer uma revisão teórica sobre lazer, verificar como ocorreu a implantação do parque, quais suas características e os diversos usos de lazer identificados durante a pesquisa de campo. Uma análise da forma e conteúdo do Parque e do perfil, usos e percepção dos entrevistados possibilitou desvendar um pouco mais sobre as dinâmicas sociais e político-econômicas que configuram e permeiam a cidade de Goiânia. Partindo do pressuposto de que a forma revela conteúdos, a análise da paisagem revelou ideologias e contradições presentes na cidade. O fato de o parque possuir uma estrutura superior aos parques localizados nos bairros periféricos demonstra o investimento por parte do poder público com vistas a atender os interesses dos agentes do mercado imobiliário. Quanto à apropriação deste espaço público, a pesquisa revelou que os frequentadores, os que apropriam de fato o parque, são aqueles que moram próximo, ou que possuem meios de transporte individual capazes de proporcionar rápido acesso ao local. Deste modo, grande parcela da população fica excluída desta apropriação, seja nunca indo ao parque ou apenas visitando-o esporadicamente. Apesar deste caráter segregador, o parque contribui para a melhoria da qualidade de vida e aumento da sociabilidade de parcela da população goianiense, o que pode ser notado através das diversas práticas de lazer identificadas neste espaço. Destaca-se dentre estas atividades de lazer a diferença entre os chamados comportamentos programados e os comportamentos transgressores, o que demonstra a riqueza e a complexidade de significados que um espaço pode revelar.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação discute como a revalorização da região central de São Paulo transforma os usos dos diversos lugares dessa região, estabelecendo conflitos entre os promotores desse processo e a apropriação desse lugar por seus usuários. Essa revalorização espacial sinaliza para o desenvolvimento da especulação imobiliária, a transformação dos espaços religiosos, o desenvolvimento do turismo e a expulsão, desse lugar, de quem não pode pagar por ele. Inserida dentro de um processo de reestruturação produtiva, essa revalorização conta com a atuação decisiva da iniciativa privada e dos poderes públicos, que concebem a cidade como uma máquina de produzir riquezas, incentivando estratégias de acumulação de capital. Por outro lado, existe quem resista a essas estratégias, transgredindo-as, demonstrando que o caráter criador da sociedade urbana aponta sempre para diversas possibilidades e uma delas é a de que o uso da cidade não esteja submetido a valores de troca do mercado.
This work analyses how the revaluation of São Paulo\'s downtown transforms the uses of this region several places, and creates conflicts between the promoters of this process and the appropriation of this place for its users. This space revaluation points out the development of real estate speculation, the transformation of the religious spaces, the development of tourism and the expulsion, from this place, of people who cannot afford to pay for it. Being part of a process of productive reorganization, this revaluation depends on the decisive performance of the private enterprises and of the government, which conceive the city as a machine for producing wealth through strategies of capital accumulation. On the other hand, there are individuals who resist these strategies by breaking them, what demonstrates that the creative character of urban society always points out several possibilities, and one of them is that the use of the city is not submitted to the values of market exchange.

This is a study of news reception carried out with three popular class families, which live in the Renascença Village, located at the West region of Santa Maria, in Rio Grande do Sul. The purpose of this research is to reflect about the uses and appropriations that these families do about the Jornal Nacional of Rede Globo de Televisão based on the communicative mediations of culture: sociability and rituality. For this, the theoretical axis of the research is Latin American Cultural Studies, mainly the Mediations Theory of Martín-Barbero (1987) and the social class concept of Pierre Boudieu (2006). The methodology of this study is a critical ethnography of reception, which was proposed by Ronsini (2010, p. 2). The results show that the uses and appropriations of news by the families are essentially determined by the social class which they belong as well as by their cultural, economic and social capitals. Furthermore, it is permeate by questions related with generation, because the news is important for the adults, which watch and appropriating of the messages daily, unlike the young that watch the news with low frequency and are interested in few reports of the news. The uses and appropriations also are related to gender, because, many times, is different for the men and women, beyond the domestic space and temporal configuration, which is mobilized in full during the television program exhibition. The mediations sociability and rituality are fundamental for the comprehension of the uses and appropriations of news because focus significantly on their configuration. The three investigated families elaborate their popular class representations based on their experience and their everyday, but also based on news, although they affirm that are not totally represented by the television program. The cultural capital of the three families is elaborated, primarily, by the media, mostly based on television (news and soap opera).
Esta dissertação é um estudo de recepção de telejornalismo realizado com três famílias de classe popular residentes na região Oeste de Santa Maria, Rio Grande do Sul. O objetivo principal é compreender os usos e as apropriações que essas famílias fazem do Jornal Nacional da Rede Globo de Televisão com base nas mediações comunicativas da cultura: sociabilidade e ritualidade. Para isso, a pesquisa é fundamentada nos Estudos Culturais latino-americanos, principalmente na Teoria das Mediações de Martín-Barbero (1987) e no conceito de classe social de Pierre Bourdieu (2006). A metodologia utilizada é a etnografia crítica da recepção (RONSINI, 2010). Os resultados demonstram que os usos e as apropriações do telejornal pelas famílias são essencialmente determinados pela classe social à qual pertencem, bem como pelos seus capitais cultural, econômico e social. Além disso, estes usos e apropriações são perpassados por questões relacionadas à geração, pois o telejornal tem fundamental importância para os adultos, que assistem e se apropriam das mensagens do telejornal diariamente, diferentemente dos jovens, que o assistem com menor frequência e se interessam por poucas reportagens. Os usos e apropriações também estão relacionados ao gênero, já que a assistência e o uso do telejornal, inúmeras vezes, é diferente para os homens e as mulheres investigados, além da configuração espacial e temporal do espaço doméstico, que é mobilizado por inteiro durante a exibição do programa televisivo. As mediações sociabilidade e ritualidade são fundamentais para a compreensão dos usos e apropriações do telejornal, pois incidem significativamente na configuração destes. As três famílias investigadas elaboram suas representações de classe popular a partir da sua experiência e seu cotidiano, mas também a partir do Jornal Nacional, mesmo que afirmem não se sentirem totalmente representados pelo programa de notícias. O capital cultural das três famílias é elaborado, majoritariamente, a partir da mídia, principalmente com base na televisão (telejornais e telenovelas).

Abstract:
Em 2008 o Museu de Arte de São Paulo (MASP) recusou uma exposição da dupla de grafiteiros OsGemeos. Em 2011, organizou sua segunda mostra de graffiti em três anos. No mesmo ano, a Secretaria da Cultura do Governo do Estado de São Paulo criou na capital o Museu Aberto de Arte Urbana (MAAU). Em 2008, a Prefeitura de São Paulo apagara um mural de grandes proporções dos mesmos OsGemeos. Pretende-se compreender por que, no final da primeira década do século XXI, a política cultural formulada pelo MASP escolheu o graffiti como uma manifestação urbana a ser ali exibida, traçando-se um paralelo com opção similar feita pela Secretaria da Cultura em relação ao graffiti no espaço público. Está nessas ações uma tentativa de estabelecer novos modos de relacionamento com a cidade e, de algum modo, participar de sua reconfiguração? A ação permitiria estabelecer-se algum paralelo com as origens do museu concebido por Lina Bo Bardi, que nas suas primeiras décadas de criação travava forte diálogo crítico com a cidade? Considera-se a intensificação do diálogo entre os equipamentos culturais e o espaço público -- e com as manifestações artísticas e culturais no espaço público -- como potente para religar os laços entre os cidadãos e os equipamentos culturais da cidade, ao mesmo tempo em que se considera que uma maior intensificação no relacionamento entre pessoas, arte e cultura, equipamentos culturais e cidade contribui para uma ampliação dos usos da cidade e do relacionamento de seus moradores com o simbólico, entendendo-se que pelo diálogo passam obrigatoriamente as ideias de dissenso (RANCIÈRE, 2012), negociação e conflito (CANCLINI, 2004).
In 2008 the São Paulo Museum of Art -- MASP (\"Museu de Arte de São Paulo\") rejected an exhibition by the graffiti artists OsGemeos. In 2011 it organized its second exhibit of graffiti in three years. In the same year the Culture Department of the Government of the State of São Paulo created the Open Museum of Urban Art -- MAAU (\"Museu Aberto de Arte Urbana\") in the City of São Paulo. In 2008 the Municipality of São Paulo had erased a very large mural by the same OsGemeos. The purpose of this work is the examine why, at the end of the first decade of the 21st century, the cultural policy established by MASP chose graffiti as one of the urban exhibits to be displayed there, compared with a similar choice made by the Department of Culture in relation to graffiti in urban spaces. Are those actions an attempt to establish new relationships with the city and somehow to participate in its reconfiguration? Would such actions establish a parallel with the origins of the museum as conceived by Lina Bo Bardi which, in the first decades of the museum\'s existence used to engage in a powerful critical dialogue with the city? The development of the dialogue between cultural facilities and public spaces -- and with the exhibits of art and culture in public spaces -- is strong enough to restore the bonds between citizens and the cultural facilities of the city. A greater intensification of the relationship among persons, art and culture, cultural facilities and the city contributes to expand the uses of the city and the relationship of its inhabitants with symbolic representations. The dialogue is necessarily crossed by the ideas of dissension (RANCIÈRE, 2012), negotiation and conflict (CANCLINI, 2004).

Clinch, Sarah. "Supporting user appropriation of public displays." Thesis, Lancaster University, 2013. http://eprints.lancs.ac.uk/70431/.

Full text
Abstract:
Despite their prevalence, public engagement with pervasive public displays is typically very low. One method for increasing the relevance of displayed content (and therefore hopefully improving engagement) is to allow the viewer themselves to affect the content shown on displays they encounter – for example, personalising an existing news feed or invoking a specific application on a display of their choosing. We describe this process as viewer appropriation of public displays. This thesis aims to provide the foundations for appropriation support in future ‘open’ pervasive display networks. Our architecture combines three components: Yarely, a scheduler and media player; Tacita, a system for allowing users to make privacy-preserving appropriation requests, and Mercury, an application store for distributing content. Interface points between components support integration with thirdparty systems; a prime example is the provision of Content Descriptor Sets (CDSs) to describe the media items and constraints that determine what is played at each display. Our evaluation of the architecture is both quantitive and qualitative and includes a mixture of user studies, surveys, focus groups, performance measurements and reflections. Overall we show that it is feasible to construct a robust open pervasive display network that supports viewer appropriation. In particular, we show that Yarely’s thick-client approach enables the development of a signage system that provides continuous operation even in periods of network disconnection yet is able to respond to viewer appropriation requests. Furthermore, we show that CDSs can be used as an effective means of information exchange in an open architecture. Performance measures indicate that demanding personalisation scenarios can be satisfied, and our qualitative work indicates that both display owners and viewers are positive about the introduction of appropriation into future pervasive display systems.

Abstract:
This thesis presents the shortcomings of the Fair Use exemption within the Copyright Act through an in depth analysis of the recent Shepard Fairey v. Associated Press surrounding the well-regarded Hope Poster. The thesis critiques the unpredictability of the law, the copyright holder’s growing sense of monopolized ownership over her or his work, the complex facets of art that are overlooked in the court’s legal analysis, and finally, the social justice implications of the Copyright Act. The thesis argues that Fair Use should make room for appropriation art, otherwise successful and progressive artists, such as Shepard Fairey, will be discouraged from creating.

Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse porte sur le goût pour le manga et les pratiques de lecture de mangas en France sur une période qui s’étend des années 1970 aux années 2010. Fondé sur l’analyse d’entretiens approfondis réalisés auprès de 80 lecteurs et lectrices adultes (nés entre 1957 et 1990) et d’un corpus de documents imprimés, numériques et audiovisuels, il étudie de manière conjuguée l’émergence d’une catégorie d’imprimés et de contenu numérique (« le manga »), la mise en place d’un univers culturel spécifique autour des bandes dessinées japonaises (festivals, boutiques, fanzines, magazines, blogs, etc), la construction, l’expression et la transformation des goûts et des manières de lire. Cette approche sociohistorique et processuelle distingue plusieurs configurations de « l’offre » et met au jour les sollicitations en jeu dans la fabrique du goût pour le manga, en particulier les réseaux de sociabilité, les dispositifs de communication et les agencements de pratiques numériques et festivalières qui étayent ce type d’intérêt culturel. En raison de l’ancrage des mangas dans des constellations de biens symboliques, de médias et de produits dérivés (notamment l’animation et le jeu vidéo), l’enquête s’attache à restituer les formes historiques et les usages contrastés de ce « media mix » japonais, les sollicitations lectorales qui en procèdent, sans négliger les produits incorporés de la socialisation culturelle (familiale et scolaire, amicale et conjugale), les agendas de loisir des enquêtés, leur horizon d’attente en matière de culture visuelle et de fiction sérialisée. Elle prend en compte les transformations des supports de lecture, des réseaux de distribution des mangas et de l’offre éditoriale, des frontières symboliques et morales qui délimitent et traversent cet univers, et des formes de recommandation, de critique et de promotion (issues du secteur professionnel de l’édition, de la presse spécialisée et de la critique culturelle ou de l’expression d’amateurs). Les parcours de lecture, plus ou moins durables et intenses, sont resitués à la fois dans un paysage éditorial, médiatique et numérique en pleine transformation, et dans des trajectoires biographiques qui vont de l’enfance à la vie active. Ils attestent d’articulations variables entre vie professionnelle, vie familiale, loisirs et goûts culturels, et du poids des déterminations matérielles et biographiques d’une pratique culturelle.La constitution de la population interrogée, visant à représenter à parts égales les classes et fractions de classe, permet d’étudier la différenciation des préférences et des habitudes de lecture selon les propriétés sociales et les dispositions culturelles des enquêtés, et de tenir compte des lecteurs et lectrices issus (ou membres) des classes populaires ou vivant dans une situation précaire, souvent négligés dans les études sur les fans. L’enquête montre que les goûts et manières de lire dépendent aussi du degré et des modalités d’insertion dans les sociabilités spécialisées et les pratiques amateur propres à l’univers culturel du manga. Les lecteurs et lectrices façonnent en effet des catégories de perception, interviennent pour sélectionner, traduire, diffuser et recommander des mangas, et s’investissent dans des faisceaux de pratiques amateur (ou des activités professionnelles autour du manga). Ils donnent ainsi à voir les traces de leur appropriation des mangas (sous forme de fanfiction, de dessin, de billet de blogs, etc…) et de leurs luttes symboliques ordinaires, tout en forgeant des incitations à lire. Cette thèse met ainsi en lumière la constitution et la différenciation des portefeuilles de goût en matière de manga, la combinaison et la variation des manières de lire, ancrées dans des expériences vécues ou des savoirs spécialisés
This PhD thesis in sociology deals with the taste for « manga » (japanese comic books) and manga reading practices in France from the 1970s to the 2010s. Through documents analysis and in-depth interviews with 80 adult readers (born between the 1950s and the 1980s), it aims to shed light on the emergence of manga as a category of printed materials and digitised content, on the expansion of a specific cultural universe around this kind of symbolic goods (festivals, shops,magazines, blogs, etc), and on the constitution, expression and transformation of the interviewees’ reading tastes and habits. A sociohistorical approach distinguishes between different periods and patterns of manga « supply » in France and stresses the solicitations encountered by manga readers in a variety of historical and biographical contexts. Thesesolicitations give form to their reading expectations and include in particular their sociability networks, communication devices, and their uses of a bundle of festivals, gatherings and digital resources. This work takes more broadly into account the historical forms and the various uses of the japanese « media mix » in France (i. e. the links between manga, TV animation series, videogames and various by-products). The appropriations of these sets of solicitations depend onthe cultural tastes and media literacies the interviewees have incorporated through long-time socialisation processes involving their family members, friends and interpersonal ties. Manga reading practices also vary along with historical transformations affecting their material aspects and publishing formats, their distribution networks, the volume and diversity of manga titles, the symbolic and moral frontiers delineating and arranging this area of symbolic production, the types of reviewing and promotional activities performed by publishers, journalists or amateurs. The interviewees’ reading careers vary in intensity, continuity and duration, and are embedded in their biographical trajectories, work-life balances and material living situations.The readers interviewed come in equal parts from upper, middle and popular classes, which allows to investigate the social differences in manga reading preferences and habits, and to draw attention to readers experiencing precarious situations (often neglected within fan studies). The dissertation shows that the cultural habits at stake in reading manga depend on thedegree and modality of integration within the specialized social networks and amateur cultural activities of diverse « manga fandoms ». The readers make up categories of perception, they select, translate and distribute manga versions, and participate in various amateur and fan practices. Thus, they display traces of their appropriations of manga titles (through a fanfiction, a drawing or a blog post) and of their ordinary symbolic struggles regarding manga, while shaping reading solicitations within their peer groups. This thesis studies the constitution and differenciation of their portfolios of manga tastes, the combination and variation of their reading habits, ranging from a variety of participative readings (connecting the manga with their life experiences) to analytical ones (connecting the manga with various bodies or pieces of (knowledge)

O foco desta dissertação recai sobre os múltiplos usos e apropriações de um espaço - o barracão de pesca - através de uma situação específica: o conflito envolvendo pescadores que exercem diferentes artes de pesca e barraqueiros, na Praia de Piratininga, em Niterói (RJ). Primeiramente, a partir do trabalho de campo, descrevo a localidade e os atores envolvidos, assim como as disputas que ocorrem na praia, sobretudo com a aproximação do verão. Em um segundo momento, tento responder, com o auxílio de conceitos e teorias, as questões suscitadas pela pesquisa empírica, que dizem respeito à noção de espaço público no Brasil, as representações sobre a praia, os interesses em jogo e os sentidos atribuídos a esse lugar. Finalizo com uma análise interpretativa do conflito que permeia a estrutura política do grupo e dos mecanismos utilizados para administrá-lo.
The focus of this master thesis lies on the multiple uses and appropriations regarding a space - the fishing shed - through a specific situation: the conflict involving fishermen who practice different fishing gear and barraqueiros, in Piratininga Beach, Niterói, RJ. Firstly, from the fieldwork, I describe the locality and the actors involved, as well as the disputes that occur on the beach, especially as summer approaches. Posteriorly, I try to answer, through concepts and theories, the questions raised by empirical research, regarding the notion of public space in Brazil, the representations about the beach, the interests at stake and the meanings attributed to that place. Finally, I conclude with an interpretive analysis of the conflict that is present in the political structure of the group and the mechanisms used to manage it.

Abstract:
This paper presents the final results of the research project that aimed to build a Semantic Search Engine that uses an Ontology and a model trained with Machine Learning to support the semantic search of research projects of the System of Research from the University of Nariño. For the construction of FENIX, as this Engine is called, it was used a methodology that includes the stages: appropriation of knowledge, installation and configuration of tools, libraries and technologies, collection, extraction and preparation of research projects, design and development of the Semantic Search Engine. The main results of the work were three: a) the complete construction of the Ontology with classes, object properties (predicates), data properties (attributes) and individuals (instances) in Protegé, SPARQL queries with Apache Jena Fuseki and the respective coding with Owlready2 using Jupyter Notebook with Python within the virtual environment of anaconda; b) the successful training of the model for which Machine Learning algorithms and specifically Natural Language Processing algorithms were used such as: SpaCy, NLTK, Word2vec and Doc2vec, this was also done in Jupyter Notebook with Python within the virtual environment of anaconda and with Elasticsearch; and c) the creation of FENIX managing and unifying the queries for the Ontology and for the Machine Learning model. The tests showed that FENIX was successful in all the searches that were carried out because its results were satisfactory.

This document describes the methodology used to evaluate the costs incurred by organizations involved in planning, programming, budgeting, and execution of the Army’s environmental programs and estimating those costs for future year planning cycles, this model is referred to as the Environmental Quality Requirements Model (EQRM). The EQRM is used to develop the budget positions as presented to Congress to obtain the Operations and Maintenance appropriations. These appropriations fund the Environmental Quality Program which includes Compliance, Conservation and Pollution Prevention requirements. The model encompasses the commands under the funding structure of the Deputy Chief of Staff – G9 Installations which includes the following: Installation Management Command, the Army National Guard, the Army Reserve Command, and the Army Materiel Command.
