Young audiences and fans of celebrities in Portugal
Creators: name: Jorge, Ana
Publisher: name: Comunicação & Cultura
Year: 2011

description: Neste artigo, exploramos a complexa relação dos jovens com a cultura das celebridades em Portugal. Argumentamos que a celebridade como objecto e os jovens como audiências nos obrigam a olhar para além dos fãs e a explorar posições de audiência mais tangenciais assumidas pelos jovens, sublinhando a contestação do significado e valor culturais da celebridade na cultura juvenil. As atitudes e opiniões dos jovens em relação à cultura nacional e global das celebridades reflectem o seu consumo de media e hábitos culturais mais vastos, que são influenciados pelas suas famílias, pelo género e pela idade. Este artigo é baseado num trabalho de campo conduzido em 2009/2010, consistindo em entrevistas individuais e de grupo a 46 jovens, com idades entre os 12 e os 17 anos, diferentes origens sociais e fãs de celebridades, questionados sobre a sua vida quotidiana, consumo dos media e opiniões sobre a celebridade.

description: This paper explores telepathy as a tool and method of collaboration within international visual art practice since the 1960s. The words telepathy and telethesia were coined simultaneously when Frederic Myers founded theSociety for Psychical Research in London in 1882. However, telepathy names an experience of distant (tele) feeling (pathos) or ideas (thesia) found in all cultures. Telepathy and collaboration are tools that a number of artists reach for simultaneously when attempting to share and/or transformsubjectivity. This raises questions of the overlapping imilarity between telepathy and collaboration, and of what it means to collaborate using telepathy. What is shared between telepathy and collaboration, and what is different?

description: By introducing alkaline-earth metal ions (Mg2+, Ca2+, and Sr2+) as structure-directing agents, three new heterometallic complexes, Mg(H2O)6·[Cu2Mg(L)4(H2O)4]·4H2O (1), [CuCa(L)2(H2O)4]n (2) and [CuSr(L)2(H2O)4]n (3) [H2L = 4-(3-(pyridine-4-yl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl)picolinic acid], have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and structurally characterized. H2L was in situ generated from hydrolysis of the well-known selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor topiroxostat. Complex 1 crystallizes in the space group P21/c and exhibits a zero-dimensional (0-D) structure containing the discrete [Mg(H2O)6]2+ cationic and [Cu2Mg(L)4(H2O)4]2– dianionic moieties. Complexes 2 and 3 are isostructural and crystallize in the space group C2/c, with one-dimensional (1-D) polymeric structure with infinite Cu(II)–Ca/Sr–carboxylate chains. The results reveal the significant influence of the alkaline-earth metal ions on the molecular structure. Their spectroscopic, thermal and solid-state luminescent properties have also been investigated.

description: Great art is marked by emphatic individual styles. From Titian to Jasper Johns, Van Gogh to Frank Stella, the individuality of major works of art and leading visual artists is unmistakable. We do not need to be told that a painting is by the hand of Rembrandt or Jackson Pollock. We can see that at a glance. The individual style of a great artist is difficult to miss. Such styles can be copied, parodied and caricatured. The irony is that what is most individual is also most generic. It translates easily into a type that can be imitated. The paradox of great art is that it is the imitable inimitable. That paradox is further underscored by the fact that such art, individualised as it is, is more often than not deeply shaped by collaboration. That which is most emphatically individual frequently bears the impress of the collective milieu, relationships and projects that populate the background experience of the working artist. Serious artists without question are self-possessed. They are driven by singular visions of what to create and how to create.

As novas celebridades dos plateaux informativos: o primado da opinião de uma elite de jornalistas

description: Os espaços de opinião que se abrem nos programas de informação da televisão portuguesa cabem hoje aos jornalistas. Se nos anos 90 a classe política era a mais solicitada para participar em debates televisivos, na primeira década do século xxi a selecção de convidados parece estar a passar por algumas mudanças. Agora, é a classe jornalística – nomeadamente aquela que exerce funções de direcção dentro e fora das empresas televisivas – a que é mais convidada para os estúdios de informação. Não falamos de um grupo alargado. Pelo contrário: cada canal apresenta um conjunto restrito de nomes, de que se vai socorrendo para debater temáticas diversificadas. Esses jornalistas, quando externos ao canal, mantêm-se fiéis a uma determinada empresa televisiva. É com essa confraria, seleccionada entre a elite jornalística, que se desenvolve um apertado processo de agenda-setting acerca daquilo que se discute em determinado momento, criando-se, consequentemente, uma espiral de silêncio na qual se precipitam especialistas e pontos de vista que importaria ouvir. Este grupo restrito de jornalistas com acesso privilegiado ao plateau informativo converte-se, assim, num grupo de celebridades mediáticas, aptas a falar de vários assuntos.

Diana, 'deusa' caçada: revendo The Queen (2006)
Creators: name: Alarcão, Miguel
Publisher: name: Comunicação & Cultura
Year: 2011

description: Cumpriram-se, no dia 29 de Julho, trinta anos sobre o casamento de Charles, príncipe de Gales, com lady Diana Spencer (1961-1997), celebridade que ainda inspira mais de um milhão de blogues e websites. Ao abrigo do tema proposto e na sequência do recente enlace de William com Kate Middleton, fará sentido revisitar a figura de Diana, sobretudo quando o anel de noivado oferecido pelo príncipe pertenceu outrora à «Rosa de Inglaterra», conforme amplamente publicitado pelos meios de comunicação social. Centrando-se no episódio da caça ao veado em The Queen, filme realizado por Stephen Frears (2006), o presente artigo incide sobre a ficciona(liza)ção das reacções e dos comportamentos de Elizabeth II e do príncipe Philip perante a morte da «Princesa do Povo».

description: A 1-D metal-organic framework, [Pb(L-NO2)2·H2O]n, denoted as complex 1, was synthesized by coordination self-assembly of PbII and 5-nitronicotinic acid (HL-NO2). The resultant sample was investigated by using single crystal X-ray diffraction, powder X-ray diffraction, elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and fluorescence. Due to its fluorescence property, 1 is a bi-functional fluorescence sensor for Fe3+ and detecting temperature. In addition, 1 possesses good stability and recyclability.

description: Two new complexes with homochiral frameworks, {Co3(EIDC)2(H2O)5}n (1) and {Zn3(EIDC)2(H2O)4}n (2) (H3EIDC = 2-ethyl-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid), have been synthesized from achiral starting precursors via spontaneous resolution and fully characterized by elemental analyses, IR, circular dichroism, photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analysis. X-ray diffraction data revealed that 1 and 2 have SrSi2 topologies and that both are homochiral metal–organic frameworks. Compound 1 is constructed by left-handed chiral chains; however, right-handed chains constitute the homochiral framework of 2. Variable temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements of 1 indicate strong antiferromagnetic interactions between the magnetic Co centers. Compound 2 exhibited weak blue PL in the solid state at room temperature.
Don Draper, avatares e twittertainment: o comportamento dos fãs de TV na era transmidiática

description: O artigo propõe examinar o comportamento dos fãs de TV no atual ambiente transmidiático, usando como referência a série norte-americana Mad Men e a transformação do personagem Don Draper em celebridade. Pretendo examinar o impacto das transformações culturais sobre as estratégias de marketing das empresas produtoras de conteúdos, já que, à medida que os meios convergem, os fãs se apropriam de personagens e marcas. À medida que os fãs são constantemente convidados a imergir em universos imaginários, as fronteiras entre realidade e ficção confundem-se. Torna-se assim essencial entender estes novos fãs, que dialogam com personagens fictícios no Twitter, se reinventam em avatares e são obcecados com sua própria imagem nas redes sociais.

As notícias como um género difuso: a transformação do jornalismo na contemporaneidade
Creators: name: Schudson, Michael
Publisher: name: Comunicação & Cultura
Year: 2011

description: A actividade jornalística tem sido alvo, em tempos recentes, de transformações significativas, resultantes de um contexto cultural em mudança, no qual as notícias, as redacções e os próprios jornalistas se viram confrontados com as novas realidades da era digital. Definir a própria actividade jornalística, ou mesmo as notícias enquanto género jornalístico, tornou-se uma tarefa extraordinariamente complexa num momento em que se exigem novos modelos de compreensão para aquilo que tem sido, é e poderá ser num futuro próximo o jornalismo. Neste artigo, Michael Schudson analisa algumas dessas transformações em curso, sugerindo um conjunto de características determinantes da indefinição de fronteiras que hoje marcam de forma indelével os princípios e práticas do jornalismo. Embora salvaguardando algumas reservas inevitáveis, o autor conclui, em tom assumidamente optimista, que este novo jornalismo que agora emerge se revela mais cooperante, menos hierárquico, mais eficiente e, sobretudo, mais próximo do seu público.

description: Performance art has its genesis in the late 1950s. Although there are historical precedents in Futurism and Dada in the early twentieth-century, the performance art genre as we understand it today emerged within a general movement to democratise and dematerialise the arts. It was often asso-ciated with issue-based politics – feminism, ecological and anti-nuclear issues – and time-based and process art practised by some of the Conceptualists.

description: Melbourne, 1980. Amidst the post-punk arts scene that animated the city at that time, the artist-writer Philip Brophy reviewed, in the first issue of the small-run, photocopied magazine New Music published by the Clifton Hill Community Music Centre, a video performance/screening by a local duo, Robert Randall and Frank Bendinelli (known collectively as Randelli). I have never forgotten this line from the review: to the remark by Bendinelli that the collaborative process is ―a continual fight … we’re both either compromising or attacking each other’s throats,‖ Brophy responds: ―But that’s good because it means that the object hasn’t got an artistic intention but it’s just got artistic tension.‖ For what Brophy said there—deftly summing up an entire artistic and subcultural sensibility—was not an especially Romantic or Utopian view of the collaboration between two artists.

description: This paper will map the emergence of black art in Britain through two exhibitions curated by Pakistan-born artist/writer/curator and activist Rasheed Araeen: Creation for Liberation (1984), a small open show at the Brixton Art Gallery, London; and The Other Story (1989), a groundbreaking exhibition of black British art at the Hayward Gallery. While the Brixton exhibition was part of the minority push to highlight local and community perspectives, the purpose of the latter exhibition was to install black British art, hitherto neglected by the ethnocentric art establishment, as a part of the story of British modernism. Thus the exhibition at the Hayward Gallery in London sought to address the lack of ―visibility‖ concerning black art.

description: The making of meaning – or the telling of a story – in visual art practice of-ten involves an elaborate performance of the space between multiple sites, such as the viewer, the image/object, and the maker. Likewise a conventional understanding of collaborative practice is one in which a relationship between multiple sites of agency is performed within agreed upon boundaries, whether they be contextual, conceptual or material. This performative and collaborative space becomes interestingly problematic when one site is much less active than the other – when one is in fact dead. With this, the relationship between now and then becomes relevant to the discussion, as the making of meaning becomes a collaborative practice of memory.

description: The emergence of feminism in the late twentieth century saw a critical re-appraisal of conventional modernist approaches to theory and practice in the visual arts. Concomitantly, postmodernism posited the “death of the author” and made more implicit the viewer‟s role in the generation of art. While much subsequent scholarship has been devoted to understandings of women‟s artistic practices and their placement within the art historical canon, and some attention has been paid to the question of collaborative authorship, especially in the field of literary studies, there has been little focus on the dynamics of collaboration when theory meets practice.

description: The use of collaborative online social media applications as tools of communication is increasing in contemporary society. Correspondingly, a number of contemporary artists are exploring online interaction in their material public art practice, as a new form of documentation, promotion and creative collaboration. Mapping and analysing these new forms of interaction provide a method to determine the scope of their contribution to new artistic knowledge. This paper argues that contemporary public art practice can be cognisant of both physical and virtual contributions as equally active participants in collaboration. It also identifies the convergence between artist and audience in virtual and physical space, and examines how this is affected by certain conditions and models of behaviour, which influence how a new collaborative creative discourse in public art can be constructed.

description: This essay takes its point of departure from Section 63 of Martin Heidegger’s Fundamental Concepts of Metaphysics where, after a remarkable elaboration on the problem of the animal in relation to the question of world, he calls into question the accuracy of maintaining his guiding thesis on the animal: “the animal is poor in world.” Heidegger himself is not only troubled by the manner in which he situates the animal within a duplicitous framework of having and not having world but also by the manner in which he situates the quality of being poor in world as specifically a being deprived of world.

Complexes 1 and 3 crystallized in triclinic space group P-1 and 2 in orthorhombic space group P212121. The urease inhibitory activities of the three complexes were tested. All three complexes showed strong inhibitory activity against jack bean urease with an IC50 value of 6.8, 5.5, and 3.5 μM compared with the acetohydroxamic acid (IC50 = 7.5 μM), which was a positive control.

On the exposure of capital markets to energy transition risks: unburnable carbon and environment-related stranded assets
Creators: name: Shimbar, Ali
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 350201
subject: Environment and climate finance

description: This thesis focuses on assets that may lose their economic value in response to climate and environmental concerns, termed “environment-related stranded assets”. It begins with a systematic review of research on the environment-related stranded assets. After studying the origin and development of the field, it finds a disconnect between value destruction and value creation aspects of the energy transition which calls for further advanced empirical studies in the field. In this direction, the second analysis deploys a forward-looking method to extract the stock investors’ view of how collective climate action may impact the value of fossil fuel shares. The recovered market estimates show that investors believe in a modest decrease in the price of fossil fuel shares at 4% on average, limited to a maximum loss of USD 100 billion, which is smaller than widely expected. The third analysis further investigates this new finding and studies the investors’ perception of the impact of transition risks. It first finds that proven oil & gas reserves of the publicly traded companies account for only 5 percent of the global economically recoverable reserves. It then uses the obtained reserves quantities and conducts a value relevance analysis revealing that the positive value effect of reserves on the valuation of companies has decreased as climate concerns and carbon risks have increased over the past few years suggesting that the investors have considered transition risks in their valuations.
The place of the explained verdict in the English criminal justice system

description: Lay participation in the criminal justice process in the form of a jury is a celebrated phenomenon throughout the common law jurisdictions. While not claiming credit for its origin, England, as the latent cradle of the modern jury, disseminated this mode of trial to a great part of the world through colonization. Yet, trial by jury does not enjoy constitutional protection under English law. The system has been under severe criticism, curtailment and considerable pressure in recent times, perhaps far more than in other countries. Critics have demanded reform or outright abolition and supporters have opposed the demands just as vehemently and any reform achieved has been piecemeal and reluctant. The furore has helped to galvanise robust and extensive intellectual debate on the subject. It has also spurned extensive academic research. Trial by jury remains central to a tiny but significant part of the Criminal Justice System. Yet, the jury, unlike other decision-making bodies, retains the power to deliver a verdict that is unique by its lack of an explanation. The issue does not sit comfortably with those who would have the system abolished or pray fair trials. The matter is traced to antiquity and the modern democracy struggles to articulate jury accountability. This paper, the first to investigate the place of an explained verdict in the English Criminal Justice System, explores the competence of the jury to articulate an explanation for its verdict. In that pursuit, the paper engages in an analysis of the current state of jury trials in relevant legal and academic literature. It also engages in a comparative analysis of other jurisdictions and finds it instructive and prudent to draw extensively from the legal and social scientific experiences and experiments in selected parts of the world including the new quasi-jury systems in Europe. It explores the literature of legal scholarship and the social sciences and investigates the human psychology of decision-making based on selected text. Finally, it articulates the argument embodied in the hypothesis and the challenges facing its findings. The thesis concludes by examining the implications for its conclusions and sets the stage for areas of further research.
The Victorian Crisis of Faith in Australian Utopian Literature, 1870-1900

description: The research behind this paper was motivated by Lyman Tower Sargent’s keynote address on Australian utopian literature, presented at the Demanding the Impossible: Utopia, Dystopia and Science Fiction conference, held at Monash University in 2007. In the printed version of his paper, Sargent notes that the theme of religion “runs throughout Australian utopianism, but with extremely varied content.” This is certainly true of the late Victorian era, when public discussion of issues relating to evolutionary theory and the role of religion in society grew particularly intense. This paper will investigate some of the different treatments of science and religion in Australian utopian literature from 1870 to 1900. I will contend that an examination of this literature supports recent historiography, which contests the problematic science-versus-religion dichotomy that has often been used to characterise the Victorian “crisis of faith.” I will first consider the historical context of the late Victorian era and scholarly trends concerning the relationship between science and religion, before moving on to examine how some Australian utopian authors of the late nineteenth century approached the issues of science, Darwinism, eugenics, secularism, church reform, spiritualism, and agnosticism. Through a brief examination of selected contemporary utopian texts that focus on issues relating to science and religion, I intend to demonstrate the wide range of attitudes and beliefs influencing utopianism in late-nineteenth-century Australia.
Public involvement in primary care : an analysis of policy implementation
Creators: name: Spink, Jane Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of Hertfordshire

description: Public involvement in primary care has gained increasing acceptance through a sustained position in government policy since New Labour began in 1997. When Primary Care Groups (PCGs) were introduced (Department of Health 1997), they were seen as vehicles for public involvement, reflecting devolution of power and local decision-making. During the process of this study (1999 - 2006) policy directives have highlighted a number of paradoxes, with the potential to impact on public involvement. Detailed development was left to local discretion, set against a national agenda that emphasised citizenship and consumerism. The purpose of this study was to explore, interpret and understand how public involvement policy was interpreted and implemented within the new organisational structures. The study was designed to address the research question `How is public involvement defined and operationalised within PCGs'. Due to the pace of organisational change, the research expanded to track lay experiences within Primary Care Trusts (PCTs). The research methods included case study, national survey, telephone interviews and the development of a conceptual framework for public involvement in primary care. From the analysis of the national survey and two in-depth case studies, the study provided a detailed profile of lay members across England. Issues regarding representativeness and the identification of a potentially discriminatory appointment system were raised. Despite inadequate training lay members were strongly represented in public involvement and health-related issues but less so in financial and operational areas. There were widespread difficulties with individual capacity and a minority of members identified themes relating to isolation, exploitation and lack of skills recognition. There was little evidence of strategic and organisational development in implementing and responding to involvement initiatives. The majority of approaches to public involvement within this study focused on information exchange and therefore, were tokenistic in relation to power sharing. The impact of the national agenda was evident and the lack of specific central directives relating to involvement led it to remain a low priority. As the move to PCT status became central, public involvement was reclaimed as a management prerogative. The analysis showed that the concept of citizenship, so central to Third Way politics was poignantly missing. The study reflected a focus on service users and the different roles of citizen and user were not clearly demarcated. The use of Foucault's concepts of governmentality and discipline provided an explanatory framework for elucidating the study's findings. The effects of governmentality embedded in policy directives and disciplinary mechanisms within NHS organisations were identified as crucial factors for the lack of significant progress of public involvement over the period of the research study.

description: Three Cu(II) complexes, [CuII2(L1)4(L2)2] (1), [CuII2(L1)4(H2O)2]·HL (2) and [CuII2(L1)3(L3)2]ClO4 (3), with a ligand derived from protocatechuic acid (HL1 = C9H8O4=2,3-dihydrobenzo[b][1,4]dioxine-6-carboxylic acid, L2 = C7H9N=o-toluidine, L3 = C6H16N2=N,N-diethylethylenediamine) were synthesized and characterized by C, H and N elemental analysis and single crystal X-ray diffraction, which revealed that the three complexes have similar binuclear structures. Complexes 1 and 3 crystallized in triclinic space group P-1 and 2 in orthorhombic space group P212121. The urease inhibitory activities of the three complexes were tested. All three complexes showed strong inhibitory activity against jack bean urease with an IC50 value of 6.8, 5.5 and 3.5 μM compared with the acetohydroxamic acid (IC50 = 7.5 μM), which was a positive control.

description: A 2-D nickel(II) mixed-ligand metal–organic framework [Ni(NPTA)(4,4′-bipy)(H2O)]n (1) was synthesized by reaction of 3-nitrophthalic acid (H2NPTA) and 4,4′-bipyridine (4,4′-bipy) with Ni(II) under hydrothermal condition and characterized by elemental analysis, infrared spectroscopy, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Compound 1 possesses a 2-D layer structure constructed from dinuclear nickel(II) building blocks in which two crystallographically equivalent Ni ions are bridged by two NPTA ligands. Furthermore, the layers are connected into 3-D supramolecular network by hydrogen bonds. The magnetism and antibacterial activity of 1 were investigated.
Hopkins and Early English Riddling: Solving The Windhover?

description: Recently, James Finn Cotter suggested an intertextuality between three of Hopkins’s poems (The Wreck of the Deutschland (1875), The Windhover (1877), and The Blessed Virgin Compared to the Air We Breathe (1883)),and the three Anglo-Saxon poems known in the nineteenth century as Christ which begin the Exeter Book. While I take issue with some aspects of Cotter’s argument, I will build on his valuable fundamental points: that there is a common sensibility between early English literature and Hopkins’spoetry and that this is produced by a direct intertextuality. The present article is concerned with The Windhover alone, a sonnet which was written during Hopkins’s time in Wales and consequently more often read in terms of Hopkins’s interest in Welsh poetry. However, though Hopkins wasintrigued by Welsh poetics (especially its rhythm and rhyme) during this period, it was not, as Cotter demonstrates, the only influence upon his work. In the form, strategies, and purpose of The Windhover, the influence of early English poetry is visible. I will show that an intertextual reading of the poem—viewing it through the lens of the genre of the Anglo-Saxon riddle—has the capacity to shed light on this endlessly complex poem.
"Paradise is a little too green for me": Discourses of environmental disaster in Doctor Who 1963-2010

description: Throughout its history, the British science fiction television programme Doctor Who has engaged with many of the real-life scientific and political issues faced by human beings. Environmental problems have been a staple in the Doctor Who canon from as early as the programme’s second season in 1964 to as recently as 2008. Yet the programme’s representations of these problems – their causes, their effects, and their solutions – have changed significantly over that time. In this paper I examine these changes and find that the programme follows a trajectory of increasing resignation towards chronic environmental problems, and increasing disillusionment with the ability of the West – specifically Western science – to provide solutions.
