Perpetrators & Possibilities: Holocaust Diaries, Resistance, and the Crisis of Imagination
Creators: name: Tahvonen, Eryk
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: This thesis examines the way genocide leaves marks in the writings of targeted people. It posits not only that these marks exist, but also that they indicate a type of psychological resistance. By focusing on the ways Holocaust diarists depicted Nazi perpetrators, and by concentrating on the ways language was used to distance the victim from the perpetrator, it is possible to see how Jewish diarists were engaged in alternate and subtle, but nevertheless important, forms of resistance to genocide. The thesis suggest this resistance on the part of victims is similar in many ways to well-known distancing mechanisms employed by perpetrators and that this evidence points to a ?crisis of imagination? ? for victims and perpetrators alike ? in which the capability to envision negation and death, and to identify with the ?Other? is detrimental to self-preservation.
Immissionsprognosen mit BIOMIS für Feuerungsanlagen der 1. BImSchV auf Basis von Emissionszeitreihen und parametrisierten Ausbreitungsrechnungen

description: Die emissions- und immissionsseitigen Auswirkungen einer verstärkten Biomassenutzung in Feuerungsanlagen im Geltungsbereich der 1. BImSchV werden durch Modellrechnungen für verschiedene Modellgebiete abgeschätzt. Hierzu wurde ein Emissionsmodell entwickelt, welches den charakteristischen und praxisnahen Betrieb der Heizanlagen abbildet. Der Energiebedarf für Heizung und Warmwassererzeugung für die Gebäude in den Modellgebieten wurde in Abhängigkeit von der Außentemperatur berechnet. Die derart ermittelten Jahres-Emissionszeitreihen liegen in stündlicher Auflösung vor. Hiermit erfolgten umfangreiche Ausbreitungsrechnungen für Modellgebiete mit einer ländlichen und einer städtischen Bebauungsstruktur. Aufbauend auf diesen Berechnungen wurde das Arbeitsblatt BIOMIS entwickelt. Hiermit kann für Wohngebiete ein Basisfall anhand der bestehenden Feuerungszusammensetzung für den derzeitigen Zustand und ein Szenario-Fall für die zukünftige Zusatz- bzw. Gesamtimmissionsbelastung bei verstärkter Biomassenutzung berechnet werden. Somit können mit Anwendung des Arbeitsblattes BIOMIS zukünftige Immissionsbelastungen in Wohngebieten bei veränderter Feuerungszusammensetzung vorab abgeschätzt werden.Quelle: http://www.immissionsschutzdigital.de
Kaethe Kollwitz: Women's Art, Working-Class Agitation, and Maternal Feminism in the Weimar Republic
Creators: name: Dortch, Jamie
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: The German artist Kaethe Kollwitz challenged the cultural constraints placed on women during the Weimar Republic. My thesis analyzes the artwork of Kollwitz and the effects of maternal imagery within the political debates of abortion reform, sexual equality and pacifism in the 1920s and explores historians? use of the ideas of maternal feminism to understand Kollwitz?s art. I challenge the social constructs of private versus public spheres to illustrate the diversity of experience and the agency of women like Kollwitz who manipulated these spheres. I argue that Kaethe Kollwitz gained a voice within the public domain by creating artwork and imagery that focused on the private sphere. Using these images of motherhood, Kollwitz manipulated gender roles and created new spaces for the female experience in public discourse, particularly regarding maternal feminism, abortion reform, and pacifism.
Repair (book project)

description: BACKGROUND: The 'Repair' book project by Mauro Baracco and Louise Wright is a creative work in the form of a curated publication based on the Australian Pavilion at the 16th International Architecture Biennale. It is 1 of 3 components of the broader 'Repair' project - the other components being the curation of the exhibition and the installation design which formed the centrepiece. The book comprises 2 parts: while one part of the book is designed as an exhibition catalogue, it is preceded by a curated presentation of scholarly texts - one of which was written by Barraco and Wright - that expands upon notions of repair. CONTRIBUTION: The textual communication of ideas through the book is a critical component of the broader 'Repair' project. It plays a primary (rather than supplementary) role in the conception and design of the Exhibition. The texts were authored by practitioners and researchers in architecture, landscape architecture, art, urban design, ecology and indigenous culture, to spur collective thinking and open up architectural discourse to other forms of repair: cultural, economic, social and health. As Creative Directors of 'Repair', Baracco and Wright envisioned the book as a stand-alone work beyond the conventions of the exhibition catalogue, and viewed their role in the production of the book as one of curatorship. This project is a continuation of Baracco's practice-led research in the integration of urban and natural ecologies. SIGNIFICANCE: The book was published by Actar (Barcelona and New York) and the Australian Institute of Architects for the Venice Architecture Biennale - arguably the most important global gathering of the built environment, attracting more than 220,000 visitors from around the world during its six month duration. Actar is a specialist publisher in architecture and landscape urbanism; it has also disseminated the book as a series of videos of interviews with authors and exhibitors through the digital platform UrbanNext.

description: Neurogenic bladder dysfunction is a condition that affects both bladder storage and voiding function and remains one of the leading causes of morbidity after spinal cord injury (SCI). The vast majority of individuals with severe SCI develop neurogenic lower urinary tract dysfunction (NLUTD), with symptoms ranging from neurogenic detrusor overactivity, detrusor sphincter dyssynergia, or sphincter underactivity depending on the location and extent of the spinal lesion. Animal models are critical to our fundamental understanding of lower urinary tract function and its dysfunction after SCI, in addition to providing a platform for the assessment of potential therapies. Given the need to develop and evaluate novel assessment tools, as well as therapeutic approaches in animal models of SCI prior to human translation, urodynamics assessment techniques have been implemented to measure NLUTD function in a variety of animals, including rats, mice, cats, dogs and pigs. In this narrative review, we summarize the literature on the use of animal models for cystometry testing in the assessment of SCI-related NLUTD. We also discuss the advantages and disadvantages of various animal models, and opportunities for future research.
Strike Fever:  Labor Unrest, Civil Rights and the Left in Atlanta, 1972
Creators: name: Waugh-Benton, Monica
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: This thesis aims to provide a history of African American working class and Leftist activism in Atlanta, Georgia during the early 1970s. It places a series of wildcat strikes within the context of political and social transition, and charges unequal economic conditions and a racially charged discriminatory environment as primary causes. The legacies of both the Civil Rights Movement and the New Left are identified as key contributing factors to this wave of labor unrest. One path taken by former Civil Right activists was to focus on poor peoples? movements, and one course taken by the 1960s-era New Left activists was to join forces with the working class in an attempt to build a New Communist movement. In Atlanta, these two forces converged and generated a notable force against some of city?s most prominent employers.
A Queer Miracle in Georgia: The Origins of Gay-Affirming Religion in the South
Creators: name: Talley, Jodie
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: The intersection of homosexuality and faith values, a very controversial topic in the United States, has generated both social accommodation as well as ?culture war.? In the past forty years this nation has witnessed the establishment of predominantly gay congregations, gay ?welcoming? and ?affirming? mainstream congregations, as well as virulently anti-gay religious organizations. This study investigates the origins and evolving history of gay and gay-affirming religious traditions in America with an emphasis on Atlanta and Georgia. Primarily an oral history, this project draws from eighty-two interviews as well as primary and secondary documents to construct this history. Several conclusions unfold: 1) Southern culture, though uniquely religious, has been more accommodating of gays and lesbians than heretofore appreciated; 2) citizens of Atlanta and the state of Georgia have been primary historical producers of gay and gay-affirming religious culture and institutions in America; 3) gay religious history pre-dates the Stonewall Rebellion, thus troubling and adding nuance to the traditional metanarrative of LGBTQ history; and 4) the paths of and to gay-affirming religious activism and institution building follows several distinct patterns.
To Pick Up Again the Cross of Missionary Work: The Life of W. J. Northen, 1835-1913
Creators: name: Cater, Casey
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: Primarily focusing on his political career (1878-1894) and as an unofficial public figure after his retirement from formal politics (1895-1911), this study considers William J. Northen?s efforts in leading Georgia to the vague but resonant ideal of progress by analyzing his combination of religion and politics for social change, modern governance, and economic progress. After Reconstruction, urban middle-class southern Baptists like Northen began to realize the social problems of their civilization. Gradually, these reformers worked to expand their traditional mission of saving indivdual souls into a modern mission of saving the collective soul of society. Whereas personal, localized relationships customarily ordered southern society, under Northen, public policy and an increasingly coercive state informed by Christian princilpes of social outreach began to overtake the role of the individual.

"Bright, Aggressive, and Abrasive:" A History of the Chief Epidemic Intelligence Service Officer of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 1951 ? 2006
Creators: name: Kelsey, Hugh
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: The history of public health has suggested that the progress of societies cannot be understood without understanding community health conditions. The federal government of the United States established the Communicable Disease Center (CDC) in 1946 to assist the states in controlling outbreaks of infectious disease. This coincided with the early days of the Cold War. The concern of some health officials of the time, most notable among them was the CDC?s Chief of Epidemiology, Alexander D. Langmuir, was to address the 1950s threat of ?germ warfare,? or bio-terrorism. To do this effectively the CDC established the Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) to train field epidemiologists as the first line of defense against biological attack. The role of the Chief EIS Officer was vital to its success. An examination of the Chiefs? performance from 1951 through 2006 supports this contention.

description: Der Schutz und die nachhaltige Bewirtschaftung von Böden sind eine Vorbedingung für nachhaltige Entwicklung und Nahrungsmittelsicherheit. Afrika ist derzeit noch der Kontinent mit der geringsten Bodendegradation, der Druck auf Böden ist aber enorm hoch. Faktoren wie Armut, Hunger, Übernutzung, Überbevölkerung und Klimawandel verstärken den Trend. Vor diesem Hintergrund liefert das Werk African Soil Protection eine vergleichende Analyse der rechtliche, gesellschaftlichen und politischen Rahmenbedingungen. Basierend auf Länderstudien in Kamerun, Kenia und Sambia werden die wichtigsten Probleme und Herausforderungen vergleichend analysiert und herausgearbeitet. Das Werk unterbreitet einige konkrete Empfehlungen, um einen effektiveren Bodenschutz zu erreichen. Diese Empfehlungen sowie die Analyse der komplexen und interdisziplinären Fragen sind auch - vergleichend und richtungsweisend - für Akteure im Themenfeld in anderen Kontinenten und Rechtsordnungen von hohem Interesse.

Ruppel (Stellenbosch University) and Dr. Harald Ginzky (UBA) co-led the project which started in November 2018 and ended in April 2020 and which was funded by the "Deutsche Gesellschaft für internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH" (GIZ). The project results were mainly based on the analysis of three country reports for Cameroon, Kenya and Zambia (lead authors: Prof. Dr. Christopher Tamasang, Prof. Patricia Kameri-Mbote and Dr. Pamela Towela Sambo) as well as on the insights and recommendations gathered at several stakeholder events in various African states. The main results of the project inter alia include the following: - No coherent soil policy and/or legislation in the three countries; - Soils need to be acknowledged as natural resource; - A legal objective should be included that the social and ecological services of soils need to be maintained and enhanced; - Clarity on tenure rights is of eminent importance; - Acquisition of foreigners in land and soil need to be effectively controlled; - Local chiefs should be informed about the importance of soils and better involved in the management and control; - The roles and responsibilities of the various ministries and authorities must be clearly attributed. The results have been published in the book "African Soil Protection Law" by Nomos Law Publishers. Quelle: Verlagsinformation
Christian Missions and Islam:  The Reformed Church in America and the Origins of the Moslem World
Creators: name: Montrose, Christopher
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2006

description: This thesis examines the historical background of missionary attitudes toward Islam within the framework of the mission emphasis of the Reformed Church in America between the 1880s and 1911.  It argues that the historical experience of the Dutch Reformed Church in the Netherlands produced a sense of pride and destiny that was transplanted by Dutch emigration to North America and maintained in the relationships of the Reformed Church in America with other nationalities and missions.   That sense of pride ad destiny prepared the church to stand on its convictions in the face of opposition, which it drew upon itself when it began mission work among Muslims previously neglected by the modern missionary movement.    Finally, this thesis shows that Dutch American missionaries sought to change western perceptions of Islam by creating an awareness of the advance of Islam that may pose a threat to Christianity.
Standup Comedy as Artistic Expression: Lenny Bruce, the 1950s, and American Humor
Creators: name: Prussing-Hollowell, Andrea
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: Despite the common memory of the 1950s being an intolerant, conformist decade, many ?underground? cultures developed and thrived in response to America?s homogenized national culture. Lenny Bruce was immersed within these cultures, using standup comedy as a vehicle to express his and his audiences? disillusionment. This thesis aims to place Bruce back in his original context of the 1950s in order to understand why the 1960s youth embraced him as their own. By examining the 1950s underground, the history of standup comedy, and Bruce?s comedy, the 1950s youth emerge as an important precursor to the 1960s social movements, and Bruce?s martyrdom as a free speech crusader becomes more understandable and tragic.

Empire of the Hajj: Pilgrims, Plagues, and Pan-Islam under British Surveillance,1865-1926
Creators: name: Low, Michael
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: From roughly 1865 to 1926, the forces of European imperialism brought the Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca under the scrutiny of non-Muslim interests. The driving force behind this dramatic change was the expansion of the British Empire?s maritime supremacy in the Indian Ocean basin. With the development of steamship travel and the opening of the Suez Canal, colonial authorities became increasingly involved in the surveillance of seaborne pilgrims. During this period, the hajj came to be recognized as both the primary conduit for the spread of epidemic diseases, such as cholera and plague, and a critical outlet for the growth of Pan-Islamic networks being forged between Indian dissidents, pilgrims, and the Ottoman Empire. As a result, the British and Ottoman empires engaged in a struggle for control of the hajj, which would ultimately reshape both the hajj and the political landscapes of the Middle East and South Asia.

Face Value
Creators: name: Scott, Ronald
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 360201
subject: Creative writing (incl. scriptwriting)

description: Research background
This research draws on Immersive Journalism, centring experience (David Foster Wallace) and the gonzo mode, throwing the author into an unfamiliar situation, (John Jeremiah Sullivan), in order to craft a personal essay which sits within the current mode of post-New Journalism creative non-fiction, blending conventions of popular genres, such as in the work of Leslie Jamieson. The research interrogates whether it is possible to apply methods from these literary forms to social media practices such as Instagram, and narrativise its practice and use?

Research contribution
Face Value is a work of creative nonfiction that explores the use of Instagram in forming narratives about the self. When undertaking this work that uses blended creative nonfiction methods of describing physical and social space, there was no literal place to 'investigate' as is typical of the literary equivalents of these methods. The essay investigates the construction of stories about the self. Whilst using the tropes of 'reporting' and 'observation', it necessarily must also employ speculation and invention as the author comes up against the limits of getting to know virtual people. The essay demonstrates a method for addressing new uses of technology within creative nonfiction. Through applying the methodology of immersive/gonzo journalism to this virtual space, the research explores the distinction between real encounters (which are experienced and described) and imagined encounters which are furnished with invention and literary technique.

Research significance
This research endeavour has been significant because in applying methods from immersive/gonzo journalism to virtual space it illuminates the role of invention, imagination and literary technique in encounters that are ‘experienced’ and described. In exploring the degree of fictionalisation that occurs in online space, it shows the appropriateness of fictional technique to write about nonfiction spaces. This project was commissioned by Australia's second-oldest literary journal and cited by Dr Patrick Kelly in the book chapter "Slow media creation and the rise of Instagram" (Mobile Media Creation and the Rise of Smartphones, Springer, 2014). Robyn Annear cited this essay as evincing a ‘zestful kick’ ("Puzzling the purpose of Australian literary magazines", The Monthly October 2013).
Peace and Mind: Religion, Race, and Gender among Progressive Intellectuals and Activists
Creators: name: Humphries, David
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This paper explores how changing conceptions of religion, race, and gender at the beginning of the twentieth century promoted transnational anti-systemic movements and increased cooperation between progressive intellectuals and political activists. Using the cases of Bertrand Russell, George Bernard Shaw, W.E.B. Du Bois, Marcus Garvey, Jane Addams, and Sylvia Pankhurst, this paper chronicles and analyzes protest to the First World War and objection to the organization of the world-system.
Evil and Englishness:  Representations of Traumatic Violence and National Identity in the Works of the Inklings, 1937-1954
Creators: name: Rogers, Jr., Theodore
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: In mid twentieth century Britain, after the experience of total war, evil was not an abstract concept but a palpable reality. How was evil understood, and how did this understanding influence notions of English national identity? This thesis examines the lives and works of C. S. Lewis, Charles Williams, and J.R.R. Tolkien, members of the British literary club Inklings. It probes representations of evil, Englishness, gender and the erotic in their fiction and shows specifically how their science fiction, horror, and fantasy was a response to the moral and human devastation of two world wars. The thesis suggests that the Inkling?s middle brow literature opens a window on a wider sense of uncertainty and longing about Englishness in the eve of decolonization and decline.

description: Background: The Gambian Ministry of Health is supportive of HIV self-testing (HIVST) and HIVST initiatives are being piloted as an additional strategy to increase HIV testing for individuals not currently reached by existing services, particularly men. This study aimed to determine awareness of HIVST among Gambian men, and whether prior awareness of HIVST is associated with recent HIV testing uptake. Methods We used men’s cross-sectional data from the 2019–2020 Gambian Demographic and Health Survey. We employed design-adjusted multivariable logistic regression to examine the association between HIVST awareness and recent HIV testing. Propensity-score weighting was conducted as sensitivity analyses. Results Of 3,308 Gambian men included in the study, 11% (372) were aware of HIVST and 16% (450) received HIV testing in the last 12 months. In the design-adjusted multivariable analysis, men who were aware of HIVST had 1.76 times (95% confidence interval: 1.26–2.45) the odds of having an HIV test in the last 12 months, compared to those who were not aware of HIVST. Sensitivity analyses revealed similar findings. Conclusion Awareness of HIVST may help increase the uptake of HIV testing among men in Gambia. This finding highlights HIVST awareness-raising activities to be an important intervention for nationwide HIVST program planning and implementation in Gambia.

The Ties that Bind: A Comparative Study of the Domination, Oppression, and Resistance of the African-American and the Oromo of Ethiopia
Creators: name: Kefentse, Darrell
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2007

description: This thesis begins with a brief survey of African-American and Oromo history focusing specifically on their experiences under the yoke of an oppressive hegemony noting that they both experienced comparable hardships (a form of enslavement, tenancy, sharecropping, disfranchisement, etc.). It also looks at both groups? subsequent development of cultural awareness and their desire for self-determination. In the case of African-Americans, these factors would lead to a national cry for equality and inclusion. For the Oromo of Ethiopia, these two factors led to an armed struggle for independence and the development of Oromo nationalism. Finally, an analysis is made of the socio-economic effects of the oppression and domination experienced by both groups and argues that in many instances the residual effects of the aforementioned hardships are ever present in contemporary society thus sparking the need for a continued struggle.

description: Polar regions should be given greater consideration with respect to the monitoring, risk assessment, and management of potentially harmful chemicals, consistent with requirements of the precautionary principle. Protecting the vulnerable polar environments requires (i) raising political and public awareness and (ii) restricting and preventing global emissions of harmful chemicals at their sources. The Berlin Statement is the outcome of an international workshop with representatives of the European Commission, the Arctic Council, the Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting, the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), environmental specimen banks, and data centers, as well as scientists from various international research institutions. The statement addresses urgent chemical pollution issues in the polar regions and provides recommendations for improving screening, monitoring, risk assessment, research cooperation, and open data sharing to provide environmental policy makers and chemicals management decision-makers with relevant and reliable contaminant data to better protect the polar environments. The consensus reached at the workshop can be summarized in just two words: "Act now!" Specifically, "Act now!" to reduce the presence and impact of anthropogenic chemical pollution in polar regions by. -Establishing participatory co-development frameworks in a permanent multi-disciplinary platform for Arctic-Antarctic collaborations and establishing exchanges between the Arctic Monitoring and Assessment Program (AMAP) of the Arctic Council and the Antarctic Monitoring and Assessment Program (AnMAP) of the Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) to increase the visibility and exchange of contaminant data and to support the development of harmonized monitoring programs. -Integrating environmental specimen banking, innovative screening approaches and archiving systems, to provide opportunities for improved assessment of contaminants to protect polar regions. © 2023 The Authors

description: This work contributed to the field of design pedagogy. The text discusses the design and implementation of a specific project undertaken by Interior design students that enabled an examination and discussion of how the design of interior design projects can expand students' preconceptions of interior design. First year students often arrive at university with preconceived ideas of what Interior Design is, based on how the discipline is portrayed in popular culture. We challenge these ideas with 'Container', the first project students encounter in their education at RMIT University. Students are asked to design a container that responds to an object's specific material and poetic qualities. Complexity arises as students are guided away from functional problem solving and, instead, must research material technologies, histories and poetics to generate new ways of forming interiors. Through the project and demonstrated in the case studies included in the text, students began to understand interiors as being formed through material, spatial and poetic relations, dependent on time, motion and performativity. This paper contributed to a larger collection of writing for the inaugural issue of Interior Educators Journal. Interior Educators (IE) representing well-established Interior design / interior architecture courses from across the UK. The paper we submitted was selected and went through a review process prior to publication. This journal is significant in that it is expanding the conversation around design education, specifically focusing on interior design, an area not frequently addressed by existing journals. Our article was of interest to them as it proposed a transgressional model of teaching interiors that asked students to "investigate the poetics and materiality of space, rather than presupposed functionality."
Men of War: The Seamen of HMS Mars and the Revolutionary Era
Creators: name: Hansen, Harold
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2008

description: The late eighteenth century witnessed dramatic changes in the social, economic, and political fabric of the Atlantic World. The Sailors of the HMS Mars fully participated in this transition to modernity. Over the course of their naval careers, the men laboring on the Mars felt the pull of four distinct, but interlocking cultures. Working class, maritime, naval, and British culture all played a part in the sailors? identity construction. As a result of these myriad influences the sailors could have chosen to join the emerging trans-national maritime working class, but instead the Mars? seamen fought to gain full British citizenship and acceptance. From 1794 when she first entered commission, to 1798 when she returned victorious from battling the French l?Hercule, provides numerous examples of the sailors? identity construction process. Moreover, an examination of the seamen?s whole journey also illuminates how the larger processes of the Revolutionary Era functioned.

description: Background: To support public health measures during the COVID-19 pandemic, oral opioid agonist treatment (OAT) take-home doses were expanded in Western countries with positive results. Injectable OAT (iOAT) take-home doses were previously not an eligible option, and were made available for the first time in several sites to align with public health measures. Building upon these temporary risk-mitigating guidelines, a clinic in Vancouver, BC continued to offer two of a possible three daily doses of take-home injectable medications to eligible clients. The present study explores the processes through which take-home iOAT doses impacted clients’ quality of life and continuity of care in real-life settings. Methods Three rounds of semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted over a period of seventeen months beginning in July 2021 with eleven participants receiving iOAT take-home doses at a community clinic in Vancouver, British Columbia. Interviews followed a topic guide that evolved iteratively in response to emerging lines of inquiry. Interviews were recorded, transcribed, and then coded using NVivo 1.6 using an interpretive description approach. Results Participants reported that take-home doses granted them the freedom away from the clinic to have daily routines, form plans, and enjoy unstructured time. Participants appreciated the greater privacy, accessibility, and ability to engage in paid work. Furthermore, participants enjoyed greater autonomy to manage their medication and level of engagement with the clinic. These factors contributed to greater quality of life and continuity of care. Participants shared that their dose was too essential to divert and that they felt safe transporting and administering their medication off-site. In the future, all participants would like more accessible treatment such as access longer take-home prescriptions (e.g., one week), the ability to pick-up at different and convenient locations (e.g., community pharmacies), and a medication delivery service. Conclusions Reducing the number of daily onsite injections from two or three to only one revealed the diversity of rich and nuanced needs that added flexibility and accessibility in iOAT can meet. Actions such as licencing diverse opioid medications/formulations, medication pick-up at community pharmacies, and a community of practice that supports clinical decisions are necessary to increase take-home iOAT accessibility.
"A Little Bit of Heaven": The Inception, Climax and Transformation of the East Washington Community in East Point, Georgia
Creators: name: Shannon-Flagg, Lisa
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2008

description: This thesis explores the evolution, growth and sudden decline of the East Washington community, located in East Point, Georgia. This African-American community was strategically created in 1912, when the city council passed its first residential segregation ordinance. This research uses oral histories and other documents to analyze the survival techniques that enabled East Washington to endure the turmoil of Jim Crow racial segregation from its 1912 inception to its 1962 transformation due to urban renewal. First, it identifies the people who chose to migrate to this area, where they came from and what enticed them to settle in East Point. Second, it discusses the network of institutions that they built and depended upon, including businesses, schools and churches, in order to maintain their largely autonomous community. Finally, it illuminates East Washington?s demise through urban renewal.
An Unquenchable Flame: The Spirit of Protest and the Sit-In Movement in Chattanooga, Tennessee
Creators: name: Jackson, Samuel
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2008

description: The purpose of this thesis is to examine the Sit-in movement in Chattanooga, Tennessee during the early 1960s in the context of a perpetuating tradition of protest in the African American community spanning more than a century. The study will also illustrate how it was a unique episode in the annals of the Civil Rights Movement in that it was strictly orchestrated by high school students without the input or support of adults, yet it has largely been neglected by historians. The research conducted includes oral histories, newspaper clippings, private manuscript collections, books, videos, and periodicals which provide great insight into the minds, motives, and methods of those involved.  The study also depicts the galvanizing spirit, ignited by the students, which compelled the community to act and resulted in monumental social changes.

Our Whole Future is Bound up in this Project: The Making of Buford Dam
Creators: name: Coleman, Lori
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2008

description: Twentieth Century Americans witnessed the construction of numerous massive dams that controlled the flow of rivers across the country. Many of these dams were built by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to improve navigation and to provide inexpensive electricity and flood control. This paper will seek to shed light on Georgia?s current water crisis by analyzing the initial purposes behind the building of Buford Dam in North Georgia, investigating how water supply issues were addressed in the first half of the twentieth century, and exploring how expectations of the Chattahoochee River changed over time due in part to metropolitan Atlanta?s population growth. This paper will show that Atlanta area leaders secured appropriations for Buford Dam primarily to obtain a reliable water supply and additional electricity for their burgeoning community.
Disturbance
Creators: name: Carter, Paul
Publisher: name: RMIT University
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 360403
subject: Drama, theatre and performance studies

description: BACKGROUND: Disturbance was a performance at Koppenplatz, Mitte, Berlin on 17 September 2017, directed and scripted by Paul Carter. Involving 25 participants over 30 minutes, it responded to Karl Biedermann and Eva Butzmann's 1989/1996 Kristallnacht memorial, Der verlassene Raum - a sculpture of a desk and two chairs - located in Koppenplatz. It was conceptualised as 'an emancipated reading' of Carter's 2004 theatre production What Is Your Name/Wie ist deine Name - the script of which was used for Disturbance - and which the stage design, coincidentally, also consisted of a desk and two chairs. CONTRIBUTION: An important part of the work is the observation of the ways in which the public respond to Der verlassene Raum. The sculptural ensemble introduces into the informal, everyday choreography of comings and goings a disturbance. Disturbance intensifies everyday performances, a dramaturgical bringing-to-consciousness of the hauntingly ordinary. The object of the dramaturgy is to create the minimum disturbance that brings these unconscious performances to self-consciousness. This 'dramaturgy of public space' demonstrates Carter's research into the poetics of place and place-making that integrates choreography, topography, sociability and language. SIGNIFICANCE: The International Research Center's 'Interweaving Performance Cultures' program (Freie Universität) invited Carter to work in Berlin on a Fellowship, which led to this work. Carter was invited to contribute to a new field of research around the interweaving of performance cultures and of cultures in performance. The performance was documented on video by the Centre. An account of this work was published in the journal article 'Knowing One's Place measuring public space,' in the Working Series journal by the Research Unit of Public Cultures (University of Melbourne).
Underneath the Rainbow:  Queer Identity and Community Building in Panama City and the Florida Panhandle 1950 - 1990
Creators: name: Watkins III, Jerry
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2008

description: The decades after World War II were a time of growth and change for queer people across the country.  Many chose to move to major metropolitan centers in order to pursue a life of openness and be part of queer communities.  However, those people only account for part of the story of queer history.  Other queer people chose to stay in small towns and create their own queer spaces for socializing and community building.  The Gulf Coast of Florida is a place where queer people chose to create queer community where they lived through such actions as private house parties and opening bars.  The unique place of the Gulf Coast as a tourist destination allowed queer people to build and join communication networks that furthered the growth of a sense of community leading ultimately to the founding of Bay AIDS Services and Information Coalition in 1989.
