description: A prominence eruption on 7 June 2011 produced spectacular curtains of plasma falling through the lower corona. At the solar surface they created an incredible display of extreme ultraviolet brightenings. The aim is to identify and analyze some of the local instabilities which produce structure in the falling plasma. The structures were investigated using SDO/AIA 171A and 193A images in which the falling plasma appeared dark against the bright coronal emission. Several instances of the Rayleigh-Taylor instability were investigated. In two cases the Alfven velocity associated with the dense plasma could be estimated from the separation of the Rayleigh-Taylor fingers. A second type of feature, which has the appearance of self-similar branching horns, is also discussed.

La littérature met en avant un certain nombre de problématiques concernant les adolescents LGBT, plus particulièrement en lien avec le développement de l'orientation sexuelle et de l'identité de genre. Ils sont plus enclins à avoir des conduites à risque, des troubles psychiatriques, ainsi que des infections sexuellement transmissibles. L’orientation sexuelle (réelle ou perçue) est la 2ème cause de harcèlement à l’école.
Going Legit: An Exploration of Formerly Gang Involved Asians

Subjects: subject: Criminology and Penology
subject: Desistance
subject: Gangs
subject: Asian

description: While the entering of a gang has been extensively researched, the exit of one is given little attention. In addition research examining the participation by Asians is scarce. This study utilized interviews to explore how Asians defined, entered, and exited gang involvement. Gang membership was defined in terms of Asian ethnicity, based on the media narratives that portrayed them as the primary offenders in Alberta. Membership was also defined by utilization of tattoos and participation in criminal activities (i.e. drug dealing). Asians in this study were attracted to gangs due the pull factors of financial and social autonomy, which in turn provided them with respect. They were influenced to exit gang involvement based on the culmination of experiences and thoughts surrounding family, death/violence, and imprisonment. The strategies utilized to enable these exits comprised limiting or cutting off contacts, keeping busy with pro-social activities, and tattoo concealment or removal.

A View-Based Protection Model to Prevent Inference Attacks by Third-Party Extensions to Social Computing Platforms

subject: Inference attacks

description: The recent significant growth in popularity of Social Network Systems (SNSs) raised serious concerns regarding user privacy. One of such concerns, called inference attacks, is the leakage of users' private information from their public information. This dissertation identifies a more dangerous type of inference attacks where users' private information is inferred by third-party extensions to SNS platforms. SNSs provide an Application Programming Interface (API) that could be used by third-party applications to access SNS user profiles, and in return provide some functionality for the users. Systematic inference of user inaccessible information by third-party extensions from the information accessible through the SNS APIs is called SNS API inference attacks. Due to the large number of users who subscribe to third-party extensions, even with a meager success rate, SNS API inference attacks could violate the privacy of millions of users. Moreover, SNS API inference attacks could be used as a building block for further security attacks (e.g., identification attacks). This work first evaluate the feasibility of SNS API inference attacks by conducting an experiment where sample inference algorithms will be developed and executed against enough number of real user profiles and then their success rate will be assessed. Next, a view-based protection model will be proposed for the purpose of preventing SNS API inference attacks. This model allows users to share a sanitized version of their profiles with extensions. Sanitizing transformations must be designed to preserve both privacy and usefulness of the user profiles. The proposed model has a theoretical framework that defines measures to evaluate the effectiveness of sanitizing transformations. The theoretical framework will be paired with an enforcement model to show how transformations can actually be designed and sanitize user profiles. The enforcement model will include a declarative language for articulating transformations. Moreover, the enforcement model will have a model of computation that can describe transformations and access queries. The proposed model of computation has enough expressive power and meets the required properties. Finally, the proposed model will be evaluated by assessing the correctness of the theoretical framework and the enforcement model.

description: RESUM: L’objectiu de l’article és posar un al costat de l’altre dos conceptes: el de banalitat del mal, encunyat per Hannah Arendt, i el de banalitat del bé, encunyat per Enrico Deaglio. Així com Arendt mostrava que el mal, en el cas del nazisme i d’Eichmann en concret, fou un assumpte d’homes normals i corrents, Deaglio mostra que el bé també podia ser assumpte d’homes normals i corrents, com en el cas de Giorgio Perlasca. En els camps de concentració, tant nazis com soviètics, hi va haver moltes persones corrents que van fer el bé en unes condicions extremament adverses, en les quals s’imposava preocupar-se només d’un mateix si es volia sobreviure. És per això que les actuacions d’aquests samaritans mereixen ser reconegudes, tal com han fet l’Estat d’Israel amb l’Institut Yad Vashem o l’associació Memorial a Moscou; i no només de les persones individuals, sinó també d’organitzacions i entitats.

description: Over the past few years the arithmetic Langlands program has found applications in two quite different problems that arise in string physics. The first of these is concerned with the fundamental problem of deriving the geometry of spacetime from the worldsheet dynamics, leading to a realization of the notion of an emergent spacetime in string theory. The second problem is concerned with the idea of using automorphic black holes as probes of spacetime. In this article both of these applications of the Langlands program are described.

description: Motivated by possible existence of stringy axions with ultralight mass, we study the behavior of an axion field around a rapidly rotating black hole (BH) obeying the sine-Gordon equation by numerical simulations. Due to superradiant instability, the axion field extracts the rotational energy of the BH and the nonlinear self-interaction becomes important as the field grows larger. We present clear numerical evidences that the nonlinear effect leads to a collapse of the axion cloud and a subsequent explosive phenomena, which is analogous to the "bosenova" observed in experiments of Bose-Einstein condensate. The criterion for the onset of the bosenova collapse is given. We also discuss the reason why the bosenova happens by constructing an effective theory of a wavepacket model under the nonrelativistic approximation.

description: Suppose an unpredictable evader is free to move around in a polygonal environment of arbitrary complexity that is under full camera surveillance. How many pursuers, each with the same maximum speed as the evader, are necessary and sufficient to guarantee a successful capture of the evader? The pursuers always know the evader's current position through the camera network, but need to physically reach the evader to capture it. We allow the evader the knowledge of the current positions of all the pursuers as well---this accords with the standard worst-case analysis model, but also models a practical situation where the evader has "hacked" into the surveillance system. Our main result is to prove that three pursuers are always sufficient and sometimes necessary to capture the evader. The bound is independent of the number of vertices or holes in the polygonal environment. The result should be contrasted with the incomplete information pursuit-evasion where at least Ω(\surd h + log n) pursuers are required just for detecting the evader in an environment with n vertices and h holes.

description: I review the foundational motivation which led us to the ultra relativistic heavy ion collision research at SPS, RHIC and now LHC: the quantum vacuum structure; the deconfined nature of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) phase filling the Universe for the first 30$μ$s after the big-bang; the origin of stable matter mass; and of the origin of flavor. The special role of strangeness enhancement and strange antibaryon signature is highlighted. It is shown how hadron production can be used to determine the properties of QGP, and how the threshold energy for QGP formation is determined.

subject: angiotensin
subject: Hemodynamics

subject: kidney
subject: sleep apnea

description: Rationale: Chronic tissue hypoxia is considered to be the unifying pathway in chronic kidney disease (CKD) progression, yet the effect of systemic hypoxia as manifested in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is not well understood. Limited studies suggest OSA is associated with upregulation of the renin angiotensins system (RAS) a well described pathogenic factor renal dysfuction. We sought to determine the effect of nocturnal hypoxia on the hemodynamic and circulating response to angiotensin II (AngII) infusion. Methods: Thirty-one OSA patients (14 newly diagnosed; 17 from a historic cohort) and twelve obese controls were studied. Effective renal plasma flow (ERPF), determined by para-aminohippurate clearance technique, blood pressure (BP) and circulating components of the RAS (plasma renin activity (PRA) and aldosterone) were measured at baseline and in response to angiotensin-II (AngII) infusion. Patients were stratified according to hypoxia severity, into those with IH (mean nocturnal SaO2≥90%) and sustained hypoxia (SH, mean nocturnal SaO2<90%). Results: Patients with SH (P=0.015) and IH (P=0.01) had higher baseline filtration fractions (FF) than obese controls but circulating RAS components and BP were similar. The fall in ERPF in response to AngII, was less in patients with SH than IH and obese controls after both 3ng/kg/min (P=0.004) and 6ng/kg/min (P=0.001) reflecting greater renal RAS activity. There were no differences in the BP or PRA responses, but SH patients had a more robust aldosterone response to 6ng/kg/min AngII (p=0.023) than patients with IH. Conclusion: In patients with OSA, SH is associated with greater renal RAS activity than IH. OSA patients with this hypoxia profile may be more likely to experience the vascular consequences of elevated RAS activity such as hypertension and CKD.

description: G315.4-2.3 is a young Galactic supernova remnant (SNR), whose identification as the remains of a Type-II supernova (SN) explosion has been debated for a long time. In particular, recent multi-wavelength observations suggest that it is the result of a Type Ia SN, based on spectroscopy of the SNR shell and the lack of a compact stellar remnant.However, two X-ray sources, one detected by Einstein and ROSAT (Source V) and the other by Chandra (Source N) have been proposed as possible isolated neutron star candidates. In both cases, no clear optical identification was available and, therefore, we performed an optical and X-ray study to determine the nature of these two sources. Based on Chandra astrometry, Source V is associated with a bright V~14 star, which had been suggested based on the less accurate ROSAT position. Similarly, from VLT archival observations, we found that Source N is associated with a relatively bright star ($V=20.14 $). These likely identifications suggest that both X-ray sources cannot be isolated neutron stars.

Transforming Sentiment: Adam Smith, Sentiment and Nation in Eighteenth-Century Transatlantic Literature

description: This thesis addresses points of connection among sentimental texts of the long eighteenth century that have previously been read as inhabiting distinct national literary traditions. Transforming Sentiment brings together the works of Samuel Richardson, Laurence Sterne, Sarah Robinson Scott, Charles Brockden Brown, Jane Austen, James Fenimore Cooper and Olaudah Equiano in order to demonstrate how seemingly disparate texts can be productively read to destabilize homogenous nationalist literary histories. Transforming Sentiment argues that these British and American sentimental authors can be understood and linked together in light of theories of sympathy and disinterestedness articulated in Adam Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) and specifically embodied by his figure of the impartial spectator. However, these theories resist being confined within national boundaries, and, consequently, these texts may be newly read as part of a transatlantic exchange, an exchange that alters the way we read sentimental texts: not as ineffective effusions of feeling but as possible alternate histories with transcultural potential. This thesis demonstrates how these authors adapt and interrogate the figure of the impartial spectator to think about the individual and the nation’s relationship to the other—from questioning imperial conquest, through models of benevolent paternalism, to more cosmopolitan views of global citizenship. By situating these texts within a transatlantic context, this thesis reveals the internal tensions within these authors’ texts that stem from an awareness of their global membership. It also demonstrates how this transatlantic intellectual exchange shapes the way these authors think about identity, the scope of moral obligation, and politics of empire. Transforming Sentiment argues that these authors share a collective discourse of sentiment that helps them reimagine traditional hierarchies of power and reductive social categories —for instance, these texts question the divisions between those who are recognized by the state as political participants with legal rights from those who are not. However, they mould the concepts of sympathy and disinterestedness to promote social reform according to the needs of their historical moment. By adapting Smith’s sentimental theories, these authors question constructions of nation and embrace the potential for a global theory of morality that the transatlantic offers.

description: La superación del fundamentalismo bíblico es tal vez el mayor problema para la teología moderna, como base para su actualización. Pero durante casi dos mil años ha estado en la base estructural de la teología cristiana (ni siquiera cuestionado por la Reforma). En consecuencia, los efectos de su presencia (y a veces su presencia directa) siguen presentes y muy influyentes, por estar implícitos y no criticados —“encriptados”— en el planeamiento de gran parte de los temas teológicos. Cambiar los presupuestos, sobre todo el de la autonomía creatural, apoyado en la creación por amor, y el del carácter “mayéutico” y verificable de la revelación, son dos grandes fundamentos que el artículo propone para una actualización efectiva.

description: Macroscopic objects floating in an ionized gas (plasma walls) accumulate electrons more efficiently than ions because the influx of electrons outruns the influx of ions. The floating potential acquired by plasma walls is thus negative with respect to the plasma potential. Until now plasma walls are typically treated as perfect absorbers for electrons and ions, irrespective of the microphysics at the surface responsible for charge deposition and extraction. This crude description, sufficient for present day technological plasmas, will run into problems in solid-state based gas discharges where, with continuing miniaturization, the wall becomes an integral part of the plasma device and the charge transfer across it has to be modelled more precisely. The purpose of this paper is to review our work, where we questioned the perfect absorber model and initiated a microscopic description of the charge transfer across plasma walls, put it into perspective, and indicate directions for future research.

description: RESUMEN Este estudio tiene por objetivo el análisis de las condiciones y los factores que determinan y explican el bienestar de los hogares rurales en tres regiones del estado de Puebla. La información y datos se generaron usando técnicas cualitativas y cuantitativas, a saber, entrevistas en profundidad, grupos de enfoque entrevistas estructuradas y una muestra estadística. El alivio de la pobreza se ha convertido en un componente importante de las políticas públicas en las últimas décadas. La desigualdad y el número de pobres sigue creciendo en muchos países en desarrollo, incluyendo México; la búsqueda de estrategias para solucionar un problema es apremiante. Algunos indicadores relevantes para la identificación y medición del bienestar de los hogares rurales son el ingreso, el consumo, el entorno de vulnerabilidad de los hogares y los activos que utiliza para la reproducción social del hogar. El análisis de datos se efectuó utilizando análisis multivariado para caracterizar tipos de hogares según variables e indicadores de interés relacionados con el desarrollo socioeconómico y humano, tales como ingreso, consumo, desigualdad, niveles de marginación y vulnerabilidad a la pobreza. Sé propone el uso del Mínimos cuadrado generalizada Factible (MCGF) para estimar vulnerabilidad de los hogares rurales por el consumo de los hogares y las necesidades de alimento en las comunidades y municipios estudiados. Este estudio describe la situación de pobreza y vulnerabilidad de los hogares rurales en las tres regiones del estudio y explora posibles explicaciones (estimación econométrica y marco teórico, contextual, histórico, y conceptual). Se formulan recomendaciones sobre políticas públicas de generación de bienestar y de seguridad alimentaria en las regiones estudiadas.

description: En la llegenda jueva del gólem (un gegant de fang que cobra vida per l’acció màgica d’un rabí, es converteix en el seu servent i eventualment es rebel·la contra ell), s’han assenyalat algunes coincidències amb els sistemes actuals d’intel·ligència artificial que ens serveixen en molts àmbits i que, segons els seus crítics, escapen cada cop més al control humà. Aquest article justifica la pertinència de la comparació i intenta mostrar com la reflexió jueva sobre el gólem al llarg dels segles conté alguns ensenyaments que avui poden ser rellevants, quan es discuteix sobre la naturalesa de la intel·ligència artificial (els seus «trets humans» i els seus límits), sobre el seu estatut moral i legal, i sobre la seva relació amb les persones (ajuda, substitució, conflicte…). Com passava amb la creació de gólems, ¿estem imitant Déu quan creem sistemes artificials intel·ligents?

description: We present a simple method to extract the homogeneous linewidth of a single photon emitter line exhibiting fast (down to 1 ns) spectral diffusion (SD). It is based on a recently developed technique using photon correlation measurements on half of the line. Here we show that the SD induced bunching depends on the ratio between the width of the homogeneous line and the spectral diffusion amplitude. Using this technique on a CdSe/ZnSe quantum dot, we investigate the temperature dependence of its fast SD amplitude and its homogeneous excitonic linewidth.

description: Copepods are an essential link in marine foodchains and the global carbon cycle. Climate change will dramatically reshape food availability for copepods, but we still have no idea how they will evolve to cope with this change. I explored the short-term plastic responses and long-term evolutionary responses to food levels in a marine copepod using laboratory experiments and integral projection models. I report copepods responses to food that were unanticipated by previous research, and how change-induced impacts on phytoplankton could alter copepod life histories in ways that may have unforeseen knock-on effects for marine foodwebs and the global carbon pump.

description: Even before the experimental discovery of spin- and charge-stripe order in La$_{2-x-y}$Nd$_y$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ and La$_{2-x}$Ba$_x$CuO$_4$ at x = 1/8, stripe formation was predicted from theoretical considerations. Nevertheless, a consistent description of the complex coexistence of stripe order with superconductivity has remained a challenge. Here we introduce a Hartree-Fock decoupling scheme which unifies previous approaches and allows for a detailed analysis of the competition between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity in real and momentum space. We identify two distinct parameter regimes, where spin-stripe order coexists with either one- or two-dimensional superconductivity; experiments on different striped cuprates are either compatible with the former or the latter regime. We argue that the cuprates at x = 1/8 fall into an intermediate coupling regime with a crossover to long-range phase coherence between individual superconducting stripes.

Subjects: Engineering--Mechanical

description: To generate more power with higher quality and efficiency by wind turbines, control systems have an important role. One of the common control methods is gain scheduling control that guarantee control objectives of wind turbines. This project presents a Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) state-feedback gain scheduling controller and its implementation on a wind turbine system for wide envelope operating regions. The designed controller is mixed H_2and H_∞ with pole placement in LPV framework to cover all ranges of nonlinearities in the wind turbine dynamic system. To illustrate the performance of control methods, it is implemented on a 5 MW three bladed horizontal model of a wind turbine in simulator software for all operation regions. To show the development of controller performance, it is compared with its linear fixed-gain form in the high-speed region. The results demonstrate the improvement of the LPV controller in limiting generator torque and output power fluctuations.

description: We investigate the capability of directional detectors to probe neutralino dark matter in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model and the Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with parameters defined at the weak scale. We show that directional detectors such as the future MIMAC detector will probe spin dependent dark matter scattering on nucleons that are beyond the reach of current spin independent detectors. The complementarity between indirect searches, in particular using gamma rays from dwarf spheroidal galaxies, spin dependent and spin independent direct search techniques is emphasized. We comment on the impact of the negative results on squark searches at the LHC. Finally, we investigate how the fundamental parameters of the models can be constrained in the event of a dark matter signal.

description: We propose a design for a plasmonic copper metamaterial with a negative index of refraction at visible/near-infrared wavelengths. Using numerical simulations, we demonstrate negative refraction by a copper metamaterial prism, and perform a parameter extraction technique to verify the sign of the effective, electric permittivity and magnetic permeability. Our proposed design has a figure of merit comparable to similar silver-based metamaterials operating in the visible/near-infrared range. These findings have implications for the design of low cost plasmonic devices and negative-index metamaterials in the visible / near-infrared.

description: In this paper we define a Grassmann odd analogue of Jacobi structure on a supermanifold. The basic properties are explored. The construction of odd Jacobi manifolds is then used to reexamine the notion of a Jacobi algebroid. It is shown that Jacobi algebroids can be understood in terms of a kind of curved Q-manifold, which we will refer to as a quasi Q-manifold.

description: This study examines the response of Weak and Transient burst deep cerebellar nuclear (DCN) neurons when they are stimulated by physiological patterns of Purkinje cell inhibitory input in vitro. We also report the DCN neurons response to regular patterns of Purkinje cell firing defined by a CV2 analysis, as well as complex spike discharge. Currently the functional significance, and input parameters that generate rebound bursts in the DCN are unknown. Here we report that there are subtle differences in the Weak and Transient cell burst response suggesting the presence of differential coding by DCN neurons. Reverse correlation between DCN cell bursts and Purkinje cell input revealed an elevation-pause pattern of Purkinje cell firing triggers a rebound burst, while CV2-defined patterns and complex spikes failed to reliably trigger rebound responses. This work identifies a framework for future studies to investigate the relationship between Purkinje cell input and DCN output.

description: La filosofía no es el único poder real que critica la barbarie y revela su naturaleza (la rebelión de la vida contra ella misma, solo que en el presente, accediendo a destrucciones de la vida -de la Vida- que podrían no ser reversibles en el medio humano). También lo hace el arte auténtica, y también la fe religiosa auténticamente nacida de las necesidades cotidianas, más importantes para la ontología que ninguna crisis de angustia elaborada en los aparatos de antialquimista de Heidegger.

description: Though surface water quality is a dynamic quantity; factors, such as increase in population, changes in climate, and anthropogenic activities impose more variability in recent times. The main objectives of this thesis were to: (i) develop models for classification of raw surface water quality, (ii) analyze the spatial patterns and temporal trends of surface water quality, (iii) obtain exceedances of parameters in each class; and (iv) develop remote sensing based models for Canadian Water Quality Index (CWQI) and turbidity. A methodology was developed using principal component analysis (PCA) and clustering techniques on the basis of 19 water quality parameters for 18 lakes of Alberta. Three principal components (PCs) were indicators of hardness, salinity and biological activities for lakes. The surface water quality showed deterioration as the cluster number increased from 1 to 5. The most deteriorated quality of water was found in Cardinal Lake, Moonshine Lake, Winagami Lake, Miquelon Lake and Saskatoon Lake. A total exceedance model was developed for clusterization of surface water quality for 12 major rivers of Alberta. The PCs were the indicators of watershed geology, mineralization and anthropogenic activities related to land use/cover for rivers. The clusters showed a strong relationship with CWQI classes. Snow melting deteriorated the surface water quality of rivers due to anthropogenic activities from different land uses/covers. There was increasing trend for the mean exceedance of the parameters as the cluster number increased from low to high. Empirical models were developed for Canadian Water Quality Index and turbidity using 31 scenes of Landsat-5 TM satellite data for the Bow River. The significant models were 14 for CWQI and 12 for turbidity. 100% matching was found for 72% and 83% of data in best-fit models for CWQI and turbidity respectively. The variation in the Bow River water quality was due to climatic changes and irrigation.
Parametric subharmonic instability and the β-effect
Creators: name: Chan, Ian
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Parametric subharmonic instability (PSI) is a nonlinear interaction between a resonant triad of waves, in which energy is transferred from low wavenumber, high frequency modes to high wavenumber, low frequency modes. In the ocean, PSI is thought to be one of the mechanisms responsible for transferring energy from M₂ internal tides (internal gravity waves with diurnal tidal frequency) to near-inertial waves (internal gravity waves with frequency equal to the local Coriolis frequency) near the latitude of 28.9 degrees. Due to their small vertical scale, near-inertial waves generate large vertical shear and are much more efficient than M₂ internal tides at generating shear instability needed for vertical mixing, which is required to maintain ocean stratification. The earlier estimate of the time-scale for the instability is an order of magnitude larger than the time-scale observed in a recent numerical simulation (MacKinnon and Winters) (MW). An analytical model was developed by (Young et al. 2008) (YTB), and their findings agreed with the MW estimation; however as YTB assumed a constant Coriolis force, the model cannot explain the intensificaiton of PSI near 28.9 degrees as observed in the model of MW; in addition, the near-ineartial waves can propagate a significant distance away from the latitude of 28.9 degrees. This thesis extends the YTB model by allowing for a linearly varying Coriolis parameter (β-effect) as well as eddy diffusion. A linear stability analysis shows that the near-inertial wave field is unstable to perturbations. We show that the β-effect results in a shortening in wave length as the near-inertial waves propagate south; horizontal eddy diffusion is therefore enhanced to the south, and limits the meridional extent of PSI. The horizontal diffusion also affects the growth rate of the instability. A surprising result is that as the horizontal diffusion vanishes, the system becomes stable; this can be demonstrated both analytically and numerically. Mathematically, the β-effect renders the spatial differential operator nonnormal, which is characterized with the aid of pseudo-spectra. Our results suggest the possibility of large amplitude transient growth in near-inertial waves in regimes that are asymptotically stable to perturbations.
Gentrification through Public Participation? Acceptance and Resistance in Calgary’s Inner Suburbs

description: This research examines the role of public participation in the planning process and its influence on suburban gentrification. Previous literature has critiqued the exclusionary nature of consensus-building and collaboration in urban planning processes, but there is little connection in the literature between those processes and gentrification. This research bridges this gap by explaining how consensus-building and collaboration processes may lead to gentrification, and how the same processes can be effectively used to limit the scope of gentrification. Through a mixed-methods comparative analysis of two Calgary suburban neighbourhoods, Bowness and the Greater Forest Lawn Area, the effect of public participation on gentrification is illustrated. The hegemony of pro-development interests was manifested in the public participation processes for two redevelopment plans in the Greater Forest Lawn Area. These redevelopment plans, were they to come to fruition, have the potential to gentrify the area. Participants in the public participation processes were convinced that New Urbanist principles could provide a blueprint to remake their neighbourhood. Public participation and collaboration, in this case, served to legitimize the gentrification process. Public participation has had the opposite effect in Bowness, where it has been used to resist gentrification. After being labeled a “community in need,” several Bowness social groups have worked to increase social cohesiveness through an ongoing public participation process. This has brought a diverse group of residents together around a central theme of strengthening the neighbourhood, largely through retaining its small town atmosphere. This movement is counter-hegemonic because it defies gentrification efforts aimed at the neighbourhood. The institutional arrangements in Bowness and the Greater Forest Lawn Area exemplify how public participation can be used to legitimize gentrification, but also how it can be used to resist the process.
