Prior to the announcement in the budget, Laurier would have seen cuts of 1.5 per cent this year and six per cent the following year across all university operations.

  • Wellness in Whiteness
    WELLNESS IN WHITENESS This book analyses the social and ethical implications of the globalization of emerging skin-whitening and anti-ageing biotechnology. Using an intersectional theoretical framework and a content analysis methodology drawn from cultural studies, the sociology of knowledge, the history of colonial medicine and critical race theory, it examines technical reports, as well as print and online advertisements from pharmaceutical and cosmetics companies for skin-whitening products. With close attention to the promises of ‘ageless beauty’, ‘brightened’, youthful skin and solutions to ‘pigmentation problems’ for non-white women, the author reveals the dynamics of racialization and biomedicalization at work. A study of a significant sector of the globalized health and wellness industries – which requires the active participation of consumers in the biomedicalization of their own bodies – Wellness in Whiteness will appeal to social scientists with interests in gender, race and ethnicity, biotechnology and embodiment. Amina Mire is Assistant Professor in the department of sociology and anthropology at Carleton University, Canada. Her research interests are in the history of women and technology, STEM and gender, bioethics, medical anthropology, medical humanities and the biomedicalization of ageing.

  • A JUNGIAN PERSPECTIVE by LAURA NANNETTE MOSLEY
    THE ROLE AND MEANING OF THE MELUSINE MYTH IN MODERN NARRATIVE: A JUNGIAN PERSPECTIVE by LAURA NANNETTE MOSLEY (Under the Direction of Jonathan F. Krell) ABSTRACT The myth of Mélusine first appeared in literary form in France in 1393. Its author, Jean d’Arras, drew from long-standing oral tradition in the writing of his romance, which was, by the standards of the Middle Ages, a best-seller. Mélusine’s ongoing popularity into the 20th and 21st centuries, not only in France, but internationally as well, is evidenced by André Breton’s Arcane 17 (1944), Manuel Mujica Lainez’s El unicornio (1965), Esther Tusquets’s El mismo mar de todos los veranos (1978), and Marie de la Montluel’s (Chantal Chawaf’s) Mélusine des détritus (2002), the four novels I undertake to explore in this dissertation. From a Jungian perspective, the ongoing appeal of Mélusine may be explained by the rich archetypal images and mythological motifs contained within her story, but to fully understand why these authors from such vastly different socio-cultural and historical backgrounds were so inspired by her, it is necessary to consider that each of these authors wrote at a time of personal and societal crisis. Jung teaches that it is at such times that the individual awakens to the need to probe the unconscious, and that it is then that the archetype most needed by the psyche will appear. Following Jungian scholar James Hillman, who identifies the alchemical Mercurius as the archetype of healing due to his capacity to unite opposites, I identify Mélusine with this archetype.
