description: Background: Health system expenditure on cancer drugs is rising rapidly in many OECD countries given the costly new treatments and increased rates of use due to a growing and ageing population. These factors put considerable strain on the sustainability of health systems worldwide, sparking public debate among clinicians, pharmaceutical companies, policy-makers and citizens on issues of affordability and equity. We engaged Canadians through a series of deliberative public engagement events to determine their priorities for making cancer drug funding decisions fair and sustainable in Canada’s publicly financed health system. Methods: An approach to deliberation was developed based on the McMaster Health Forum’s citizen panels and the established Burgess and O'Doherty model of deliberative public engagement. Six deliberations were held across Canada in 2016. Transcripts were coded in NVivo and analysed to determine where participants’ views converged and diverged. Recommendations were grouped thematically. Results: A total of 115 Canadians participated in the deliberative events and developed 86 recommendations. Recommendations included the review and regular re-review of approved drugs using ‘real-world’ evidence on effectiveness and cost-effectiveness; prioritisation of treatments that restore patients’ independence, mental health and general well-being; ensuring that decision processes, results and their rationales are transparent; and commitment to people with similar needs receiving the same care regardless of where in Canada they live. Conclusions: The next steps for policy-makers should be to develop mechanisms for (1) re-reviewing effectiveness and cost-effectiveness data for all cancer drugs; (2) making disinvestments in cancer drugs that satisfy requirements relating to grandfathering and compassionate access; (3) ensuring fair and equitable access to cancer drugs for all Canadians; and (4) fostering a pan-Canadian approach to cancer drug funding decisions.
Ein neu(artig)es Argument für den Prinzen Andronikos als Autor von Kallimachos und Chrysorrohe

Subjects: Vernacular literature

description: The author of this paper examines the validity of Emidio Martini’s old assumption (1896/1900) that Andronicus (Comnenus Ducas) Palaeologus, who lived in the first half of the 14th century, was the author of the verse romance Callimachus and Chrysorrhoe. Methodologically, the author employs the “cryptosphragis” system, which he discovered several years ago. He finds out that at the beginning and the end of this romance there exist the following relevant cryptosphragides: at vv. 4-22 Ο ΑΝΔΡΟΝΙΚΟΣ Ο ΔΟΥΚΑΣ Ο ΠΑΛΑΙΟΛΟΓΟΣ ΣΟΥ, and at vv. 2592-2605 Ο ΑΝΔΡΟΝΙΚΟΣ Ο ΚΟΜΝΗΝΟΣ ΣΟΥ.

John of Karpathos and the Florilegium On the Holy Communion
Creators: name: Antonopoulou, Theodora
Publisher: name: Parekbolai. An Electronic Journal for Byzantine Literature
Year: 2016
Subjects: John of Karpathos, Florilegia, Holy Communion, John Oxeites

description: This paper focusses on an unedited florilegium on the Holy Communion which is attributed in certain manuscripts to the ascetic author John of Karpathos. Past scholarship had suggested and/or argued that this is a pseudonymous work derived from the respective florilegia of John Oxeites. The comparative examination of the three manuscripts allegedly containing the florilegium, as well as of certain Athenian manuscripts of Oxeites’ Hypothesis has led to a number of observations on the florilegium, including the confirmation of the older hypotheses with fresh evidence. It has also allowed the determination of the exact presence and placement of Karpathios’ passage(s) in what prove to be distinct versions of the florilegium and, at the same time, of Oxeites’ work.

Subjects: Theodore Metochites; Poems; Andronikos II Palaiologos; structure; focalization; narrator

description: The article deals mainly with the narrative structure and the focalization of the Poems of Theodore Metochites. After examining the careful structuring of some of those Poems, the author proceeds to an investigation of the focalization, mainly of Poem 1, trying to distinguish between the voice of the primary narrator focalizer, who is Metochites himself at the time of the composition of this Poem, and the voice of the same person at the time of his experiencing the events described afterwards; however, in the same Poem as well as in Poems 7 and 8, the reader may also hear the voice of Metochites’s patron, the emperor Andronikos II Palaiologos, whose point of view is carefully embedded into the Poems by the poet. In a sense Metochites is interested in reproducing the hierarchical structure of Byzantine society through his Poems, thus creating a monument for his beloved emperor.

Diagnóstico genético

description: RESUMO

 

A Síndrome de Gilbert (SG) faz referência a uma condição genética hereditária de caráter autossômico recessivo, acometendo principalmente o metabolismo da bilirrubina. Cerca de 4 a 10% da população mundial são afetadas por essa doença, as manifestações começam a ocorrer logo no início da adolescência, com o sexo masculino sendo o mais incidente. Objetivo: proporcionar a visibilidade dessa patologia genética e elucidar como ocorre o seu diagnóstico convencional e diferencial através das metodologias dispostas atualmente. Materiais e métodos: revisão bibliográfica exploratória de caráter qualitativo, no qual foram utilizados como fontes de pesquisas artigos científicos publicados nas bases de dados SCIELO, Pubmed, Statpearls e Google acadêmico no intervalo de junho 2023 a agosto de 2024. Revisão de literatura: A origem da fisiopatologia está relacionada a fatores genéticos ligados a uma “deficiência da enzima UGT1A1 e comprometimento da conjugação da bilirrubina na hiperbilirrubinemia hereditária não conjugada, que inclui a síndrome de Gilbert” acometida pela mutação genética. Conclusão: através desse estudo foi possível compreender que o diagnóstico por meio da genética do portador proporciona maiores benefícios, bem como a diferenciação dessa patologia com outras condições, evitando reconhecimento incorreto. Entretanto, ainda existem alguns desafios que devem ser superados ao longo dos anos, principalmente envolvendo o custo e acesso, a interpretação e limitação dos testes genéticos.
Nonnos and Wulfila
Creators: name: Lauritzen, Frederick
Publisher: name: Parekbolai. An Electronic Journal for Byzantine Literature
Year: 2009
Subjects: Nonnos; Wulfila;codex Alexandrinus; codex Vaticanus; codex Sinaiticus; New Testament

description: Nonnos of Panopolis paraphrased the Gospel of John on the basis of a text of the New Testament available in Constantinople since the fourth century. In a number of passages his text gives a new wording of expressions present also in the Alexandrinus manuscript as well as in the Gothic translation by Wulfila. The fact that these three texts have the same readings of the Gospel of John in a significant number of passages, implies that they used a similar version of the biblical text and that this did not coincide with that employed by non-Chalcedonian Christians, since Wulfila was an Arian and wrote before the council of Chalcedon (451). Moreover, Nonnos, Wulfila and Alexandrinus agree against Vaticanus and Sinaiticus. Given the importance given to these latter manuscripts in the Nestle– Alland critical edition (NA28), it means that Nonnos does not paraphrase a text as is printed in that edition, but one more similar to the patriarchal edition of 1904.

description: ObjectiveIntraocular lens (IOL) opacification may cause severe visual impairment. The pathogenesis remains unclear. The aim of this study was to analyse opacification patterns in different IOLs. Therefore, this multicentre, retrospective, observational study was conducted at Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich, Germany and University-Hospital Basel, Switzerland.Methods and analysisIn this study, 75 opacified IOLs were identified and classified after extraction. Macroscopical photo documentation, light and electron microscopic analysis were done.Results68 acrylic-hydrophilic single-piece-IOLs, 1 acrylic-hydrophilic 3-piece-IOL, 6 acrylic-hydrophobic 3-piece-IOLs were extracted. The dataset comprised IOLs known for opacification and IOLs not having been reported yet. 67 IOLs showed a fine-granular and 8 IOLs a crust-like opacification pattern. According to literature, 62 of the fine-granular opacified IOLs were graded into type 1 (processing/packaging-induced primary opacification) and 13 into type 2 (secondary opacification of unknown aetiology). The anterior surface of the IOLs was affected in all 75 IOLs, the posterior surface only in 23 cases. Of all 67 fine-granular IOLs, 43 had a central defect and 21 had a zone without opacification (clear islet).ConclusionIn our series, the morphology of IOL opacification did not follow the existing pathogenetic classification that strictly discriminates between primary and secondary causes. Fine-granular IOL opacification occurs with similar patterns in both type 1 and type 2 IOL opacification, while a crust-like pattern was only detected in type 2 IOL opacifications. Consequently, susceptibility of an IOL to opacification is caused by a multifactorial combination of material and processing properties as well as individual (pathological) conditions of the patient.

description: We report a new fast radio burst (FRB) discovered in real-time as part of the UTMOST project at the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Radio Telescope. FRB170827 was first detected with our low-latency (<24 s) and machine-learning based FRB detection system. The FRB discovery was accompanied by the capture of voltage data at the native time and frequency resolution of the observing system, enabling coherent dedispersion and detailed off-line analysis that have unveiled fine temporal and frequency structure. The dispersion measure (DM) of 176.80 +/- 0.04 pc cm(-3) is the lowest of the FRB population. The Milky Way contribution along the line of sight is similar to 40 pc cm(-3), leaving an excess DM of similar to 145 pc cm(-3). The FRB has a fluence >20 +/- 7 Jy ms, and is narrow with a width of similar to 400 sat 10 per cent of its maximum amplitude. However, the burst shows three temporal components, the narrowest of which is similar to 30 s, and a scattering time-scale of 4.1 +/- 2.7 s. The FRB shows spectral modulations on frequency scales of 1.5 MIIz and 0.1 MIIz. Both are prominent in the dynamic spectrum, which shows a very bright region of emission between 841 and 843 MHz, and weaker and patchy emission across the entire band. We show that the fine spectral structure could arise in the FRB host galaxy, or its immediate vicinity.

Philippos Monotropos' Dioptra and its Social Milieu: Niketas Stethatos, Nikollaos III Grammatikos and the Persecution of Bogomilism

Publisher: name: Parekbolai. An Electronic Journal for Byzantine Literature

Subjects: Philippos Monotropos; Dioptra; Niketas Stethatos; Nikolaos III Grammatikos

description: This article aims to investigate the social milieu of Philippos Monotropos, author of the Dioptra. Explicit evidence on Philippos is scarce, but the comparison with contemporary texts allows some conclusions. Indeed, the way that Philippos treats Bogomilism indicates connections with imperial and patriarchal circles. Moreover, numerous parallels between the Dioptra and the Poem on Fast Days written by Nikolaos III Grammatikos shows that the Patriarch knew and ap­preciated the Dioptra very soon after its composition. The hypothesis that Philip­pos belonged to an educated, urbane ecclesiastical milieu is in accordance with the assessment of the Dioptra as a simplistic epitome of Christian humanistic theology – contrary to previous views that overemphasised its ascetic element.

description: The idea of DisResc is to place workloads with different requirements on heterogeneous resources, while both the requirements and the resources are considered. The overall goals are to better utilise (heterogeneous) data centres, provide better user experiences by selecting the best matching hardware for a workload, and to allow different workload types like virtual machines, containers or HPC jobs side by side in one data centre. DisResc is the vision to build a cluster management software for cloud and hpc workloads, running in parallel on a heterogeneous physical data centre. DisResc enabled compute nodes should i) run virtual machines, containers or HPC jobs, ii) compile time-based behaviour profiles of their workloads, in order to iii) detect suboptimal situations like over/under utilization. The resource utilisation should consider multiple metrics like processor, memory, disk, and network utilisation. The cluster should communicate in a peer-based manner to agree on the best fitting placement of new workloads, and workloads of nodes in a suboptimal state. This non-centralised approach can remove single points for management and monitoring, which are usually found in Cloud and HPC clusters. Beside the distributed and stateful compute nodes, stateless gateway nodes allow user interactions with the cluster. The two main challenges and open questions of DisResc are first the compilation of a time-based behaviour profile out of monitoring data, and second to define a distributed consensus algorithm for determining a best fitting node for a behaviour profile.

Creating the female/female creators: Pope, women writers and "The Dunciad".
Creators: name: Kotsovolos, Nastasia.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Biography.

description: This thesis examines the transformation of gender identity in the early eighteenth century; it demonstrates the ways in which the entry of women into print culture destabilized traditional gender norms; and it demonstrates the effect of such changes upon the life and poetry of Alexander Pope. The first chapter, which is mainly historical, contextualizes women's participation in print culture. It describes how their presence in print signified gender as an artificial or socially constructed category (as opposed to traditional notions of it as absolute and essential). The second chapter surveys various poetry and correspondence of Alexander Pope in order to demonstrate the difficulties and anxieties experienced by Pope as he attempts to deal with fluctuating gender codes of the day. He requires a stable notion of the private feminine Other in order to establish his masculine and public self, yet it is shown that Pope is inexorably linked with the feminine Other from which he endeavours to distance himself; thereby, he unwittingly contributes to the slippage of these terms. The third chapter ties together all the issues discussed in the previous two chapters through a close reading of The Dunciad. Pope's anxiety about gender identity is revealed: he represents his culture, especially literary culture, as having fallen into "feminization" because it has ostensibly rejected masculine values in preference to feminine ones. The reign of Queen Dulness engenders the conditions whereby the body has enslaved the mind, madness has overpowered reason and empty rhetoric has replaced meaningful language. Although Pope attempts to distance himself from all that he represents as corrupt and effeminate in The Dunciad, he is, nevertheless, implicated in the perversion of the very patriarchal systems which he is attempting to uphold.

Dlx regulation in zebrafish brain development via I56iI56ii and I12aI12b
Creators: name: Burton, Lindsay
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Biology, Molecular.
subject: Biology, Neuroscience.

description: Dlx genes are involved in the formation of the forebrain, branchial arches, sensory organs, and limbs. In the forebrain, Dlx genes are expressed in restricted domains in the telencephalon and diencephalon. The telencephalon is one of the most complex structures in the vertebrate central nervous system, but despite variable morphologies of the adult telencephalon, the patterning and basic organization is conserved amongst vertebrates. Cis-acting regulatory sequences (CREs) that contribute to Dlx expression in the telencephalon were previously identified in the intergenic region between Dlx5 and Dlx6 (I56i and I56ii), between Dlx1 and Dlx2 (I12b), and upstream of Dlx1 (URE2) in zebrafish, mouse, and human. I hypothesize that these CREs contribute to defining distinct subtypes of interneurons during forebrain development. In this study, we have investigated the differential activity of intergenic CREs in the developing zebrafish brain using the established transgenic lines Tg(6kb-dlx1a/dlx2a: EGFP) and Tg(1.4kb-dlx5a/dlx6a:EGFP) in which the green fluorescent protein gene (GFP) was used as a reporter whose expression was controlled by dlx CREs. The two intergenic fragments target reporter transgenes with overlapping patterns of expression in the telencephalon but also show differential activity in the dorsal region of the brain at the level of the pallium. These results suggest that the dlx1a/2a CREs are involved in dlx regulation in a set of cells occupying the subpallium, whereas the dlx5a/6a CREs are involved in dlx regulation in a set of cells that migrate out of the subpallium and travel in a ventral to dorsal manner to occupy the pallium. Co-localization of GFP with GAD65/67 and with molecular markers of the interneuron subtype, calretinin, indicates that the dlx CREs target the reporter constructs to GABAergic interneurons, with at least one subtype expressing calretinin. Results from this study reflect a dynamic regulation of dlx gene expression in the developing zebrafish forebrain through several regulatory elements with distinct and overlapping functions.
Verse Letter from Gregory of Nazianzus to Vitalianus
Creators: name: Brodňanská, Erika
Publisher: name: Parekbolai. An Electronic Journal for Byzantine Literature
Year: 2012
Subjects: Gregory of Nazianzus

description: The article offers a complex view of the poetic letter of Gregory of Nazianzus II, II, 3 Ad Vitalianum, which has not yet been the subject of modern criticism. The letter is a plea by Vitalianus’ banished sons for their father to take them back. Based on the manuscript tradition, the article’s author concludes that the fictional author of the letter is the son Phocas rather than Peter. The disrupted relationship between father and sons is reflected in both the content of the poem and the forms of salutations used: the seemingly positive epithets φέριστε, μακάρτατε, and φίλε; forms of address which directly express a certain distance and coldness (μέγα φέρτατε, ὦ ἄνα), or even animosity towards the father (ὀλοώτατε δαῖμον, ὦ κακόβουλε). The poetic letter has a concentric structure (A; B; C; D; E; F; G; F´; E´; D´; C´; B´; A´), with individual com­ponents linked for the most part thematically. The letter is written in dactylic hexameter. The most frequently used metre in the verses is the holodactyl, and the most frequent caesura is the caesura post tertium trochaeum. As far as the breach of Hermann’s bridge in verses is concerned, and based on the understanding of the term ‘word’ in metrics, the author of the article concludes that in the majority of cases the breach is only ‘visual’, and cannot be detected when listened to. Gregory did not avoid three true hiatuses; and in two verses, in order to keep the rhythm of dactylic hexameter, it is essential to measure a long syllable as a short one. However, metric errors may be related to prosodic licence.

description: We present deep spectroscopic follow-up observations of the Bremer Deep Field (BDF), where the two z similar to 7 bright Ly alpha emitters (LAE) BDF521 and BDF3299 were previously discovered by Vanzella et al. and where a factor of similar to 3-4 overdensity of faint LBGs has been found by Castellano et al. We confirm a new bright Ly alpha emitter, BDF2195, at the same redshift of BDF521, z = 7.008 and at only similar to 90 kpc physical distance from it, confirming that the BDF area is likely an overdense, reionized region. A quantitative assessment of the Ly alpha fraction shows that the number of detected bright emitters is much higher than the average found at z similar to 7, suggesting a high Ly alpha transmission through the intergalactic medium. However, the line visibility from fainter galaxies is at odds with this finding, as no Ly alpha emission is found in any of the observed candidates with M-UV > -20.25. This discrepancy can be understood either if some mechanism prevents Ly alpha emission from fainter galaxies within the ionized bubbles from reaching the observer, or if faint galaxies are located outside the reionized area and bright LAEs are solely responsible for the creation of their own H II regions. A thorough assessment of the nature of the BDF region and of its sources of re-ionizing radiation will be made possible by James Webb Space Telescope spectroscopic capabilities.

description: The Coalition fatally miscalculated by relying too heavily on its economic record during the election campaign, according to a poll conducted on election day exclusively for The Age. Labor's preferred election issues — health, education, industrial relations and climate change — were the dominant factors in the minds of a majority of 750 people interviewed soon after they voted.

Wavelets for image compression.
Creators: name: Mandal, Mrinal Kumar.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: Wavelets are becoming increasingly important in image compression applications because of its flexibility in representing nonstationary signals. To achieve a high compression ratio, the wavelet has to be adapted to the image. Current techniques use exhaustive search procedures which are computationally intensive to find the optimal basis (type/order/tree) for the image to be coded. In this thesis, we have carried out extensive performance analysis of various wavelets on a wide variety of images. Based on the investigation, we propose some guidelines for searching for the optimal wavelet (type/order) based on the overall activity (measured by the spectral flatness) of the image to be coded. These guidelines will provide the degree of improvement that can be achieved by using the "optimal" over "standard" wavelets. The proposed guidelines can be used to find a good initial guess for faster convergence when searching for optimal wavelet is essential. We propose a wave packet decomposition algorithm based on the local transform gain of the wavelet decomposed bands. The proposed algorithm provides good coding performance at significantly reduced complexity. Most practical coders are designed to minimize the mean square error (MSE) between the original and reconstructed image. It is known that at high compression ratio, MSE does not correspond well to the subjective quality of the image. In this thesis, we propose an image adaptive coding algorithm which tries to minimize the MSE weighted by the visual importance of various wavelet bands. It has been observed that the proposed algorithm provides a better coding performance for a wide variety of images.
Chapters, Epistolary Essays and Epistles. The Case of Michael Glykas’ Collection of Ninety-Five Texts in the 12th Century

Subjects: Michael Glykas; Erotapokriseis

description: It is a fact that the variety of terms in use (“chapters”, “epistolary essays”, “epistles” etc.) regarding Michael Glykas’ ninety-five texts of theological content, which have been published by Sophronios Eustratiadis in two volumes under the title Εἰς τὰς ἀπορίας τῆς θείας γραφῆς κεφάλαια, is so wide as to cause wonder as well as confusion regarding their genre. Eustratiadis was the first to consciously introduce the term “chapters” instead of “epistles”, the widely-used term for Glykas’ texts in the various editions and studies, since “the oldest manuscripts as well as Glykas himself name the collection as chapters”. This paper examines thoroughly the accuracy of his statement and shows that the manuscript tradition of the collection does not justify its designation as chapters. On the other hand, when Glykas referred to his texts as chapters, it was during an overall editing not only of the collection of his ninety-five texts but of his overall work (namely his two poems, his proverbs and the collection), when he apparently considered his various texts as units of a single book. Based on these data, even if the term κεφάλαια is maintained in contemporary references to Glykas’ work two points should be made clear at the very beginning: (a) it does not carry any genre content, but instead is of a general use in order to describe texts of various genres, and mainly (b) it concerns more texts than the ninety-five of the collection under discussion here, whose title in any case varies so much in the manuscript tradition that it needs to be re-examined. Moreover, the comparison of Glykas’ collection with other relevant works of the middle Byzantine era, namely the Epistles and the Amphilochia of Photius, the epistles of Nicetas Stethatos and the Ponemata diaphora of Demetrios Chomatenos, lead to the assumption that Glykas’ collection comprise various texts, mostly epistles as well as short theological treatises or notes, which for some reason were incorporated later into the collection on following the same pattern as the epistles.

description: Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) including pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can be life threatening. An increased frequency of VTE has been found in inflammatory conditions. To date, evidence assessing whether this risk is also greater in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients is scarce. Methods: Using the provincial British Columbia, Canada healthcare database that encompasses all residents within the province, we conducted matched cohort analyses of incident PE, DVT, and overall VTE amongst incident cases of AS and compared them with individuals randomly selected from the general population without AS. We calculated incidence rates of VTE and multivariable analyses after adjusting for traditional risk factors using Cox models. Results: Among 7,190 incident cases of AS, 35 developed PE and 47 developed DVT. Incidence rates (IR) of PE, DVT, and overall VTE per 1,000 person-years for AS patients were 0.79, 1.06, 1.56 compared with 0.40, 0.50, 0.77 in the control cohort. Corresponding fully adjusted HRs (95% CI) of PE, DVT, and VTE were 1.36 (0.92 to 1.99), 1.62 (1.16 to 2.26), and 1.53 (1.16 to 2.01). The risks of PE, DVT, and VTE were highest in the first year of diagnosis with HR (95% CI) of 2.88 (0.87 to 9.62), 2.20 (0.80 to 6.03), and 2.10 (0.88 to 4.99). Conclusions: These findings demonstrate an increased risk of VTE in the general AS population. This risk appears the most prominent in the first year after diagnosis.

description: We establish a new connection between the theory of Berge graphs (perfect graphs) and communication complexity. We discover a new class of square-free Berge graphs, the class of beautiful graphs, and make progress towards their characterization: On the one hand, we give a complete list of forbidden induced subgraphs of order $\leq 7$, on the other hand, we show that every square-free bipartite graph is beautiful, and, as the main result, we characterize the beautiful line graphs of square-free bipartite graphs.
INTEROPT: A software system for interactive function minimization.
Creators: name: Guirguis, Bahaa.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1976
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Electronics and Electrical.

description: The process of locating the minimum of a nonlinear function is highly experimental in nature since the determination of an acceptable solution may require many trials involving technique and parameter changes. If this problem is handled in a batch computing environment, the user is obliged to accept significant delays between minimization experiments. This difficulty can be overcome through the use of an interactive approach. The work described in this thesis is concerned with the development of a software package, called INTEROPT, which applies interactive/graphics techniques to the solution of nonlinear minimization problems. INTEROPT is designed for use on the IBM 360/65 computer operated by the Computing Center of the University of Ottawa. A Tektronix 4013 (or equivalent) graphics display unit is utilized as an on-line input-output device. The thesis describes the operation and structure of INTEROPT and gives examples of typical terminal sessions.
The Mohawk Crisis: A crisis of hegemony. An analysis of media discourse.
Creators: name: Stuart, Charles.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1993
Subjects: subject: History, Canadian.

description: The subject for this thesis was the Mohawk Crisis at Oka, Quebec during the summer of 1990. The theoretical framework underlining the study was Antonio Gramsci's concept of a crisis of hegemony or legitimation crisis as applied by Stuart Hall et al. (1978). Within this theoretical framework the media are viewed as an ideological mechanism perpetuating the existing hegemonic relationship. The research undertook to apply this social theory to the Mohawk Crisis and examine the ideological discourse in the media coverage of the Crisis. Press reports taken from the Globe and Mail and Montreal Gazette were analyzed using quantitative content analysis and a qualitative exploratory technique. The following two general theses were examined: firstly, that ideological discourse would be apparent in media coverage of the 1990 Mohawk Crisis and, secondly, that the media supported an official 'law and order' campaign during the Mohawk Crisis. Further, two more specific hypotheses were tested in individual chapters which present the results of the quantitative content analysis. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)
