  • Ladino and Indigenous Pageantry in Neocolonial Guatemala
    THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER: LADINO AND INDIGENOUS PAGEANTRY IN NEOCOLONIAL GUATEMALA by Jillian L. Kite A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL August 2014 Copyright by Jillian L. Kite 2014 ii iii ABSTRACT Author: Jillian L. Kite Title: The Eye of the Beholder: Ladino and Indigenous Pageantry in Neocolonial Guatemala Institution: Florida Atlantic University Thesis Co-Advisors: Dr. Josephine Beoku-Betts and Dr. Mark Harvey Degree: Master of Arts Year: 2014 In this thesis I utilize a feminist case study method to explore gender, race, authenticity, and nationalism in the context of globalization. Each year, Guatemala conducts two ethno-racially distinct pageants – one indigenous, the other ladina. The indigenous pageant prides itself on the authentic display of indigenous culture and physiognomies. On the contrary, during the westernized ladina pageant, contestants strive to adhere to western beauty ideals beauty and cultural norms engendered by discourses of whiteness. However, when the winner advances to the Miss World Pageant, they misappropriate elements of Mayan culture to express an authentic national identity in a way that is digestible to an international audience. In the study that follows, I examine the ways in which national and international pageants are reflective of their iv respective levels of social and political conflict and how they serve as mechanisms of manipulation by the elite at the national and global levels. v THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER: LADINO AND INDIGENOUS PAGEANTRY IN NEOCOLONIAL GUATEMALA I.

ABSTRACT In the last five years, news of various scandals in the pageant industry has inundated media outlets. These recent incidents are by no means outliers in the history of pageantry. This article ex- plores the significance of one of these controversies - the Rebekah Revels litigation, which stemmed from the disputed 2002 Miss North Carolina pageant. For context, this article first outlines allegations of wrongdoing in early pageants. It proceeds with an analysis of how the Revels liti- gation serves as an exemplar of the types of contract lawsuits that may continue to entangle pageant organizations in the future. Finally, the article provides an examination of the specific legal, economic, and sociocultural effects that the Revels litigation has had, and likely will continue to have, upon the business model of the pageant industry.

  • Does Race Matter in International Beauty Pageants? a Quantitative Analysis of Miss World B S Z  R  W , PD U    B   C 
    Does race matter in international beauty pageants? A quantitative analysis of Miss World B S Z R W, PD U B C Abstract: Most research on race and beauty pageants uses qualitative research methods and focuses on national beauty pageants. For this reason it is unclear whether there are broad patterns of racial inequalities in international beauty pageants. My study addresses this issue by using a quantitative approach to examine whether race affects success rates in international beauty pageants. This study examines countries that have competed in the Miss World pageant from 1951 to 2011 and examine each country’s probability of winning and being in the semi- fi nals. The analysis shows that race matters. White countries have a much higher chance of winning and being in the semi-fi nals than non-white nations. Furthermore, white nations have been over-represented as winners and semi-fi nalists while non-white nations have been under-represented in both those categories. The patterns of success for white nations and lack of success for non-white nations demonstrates that beauty is not neutral and that global beauty pageants can be seen as a refl ection of racial hierarchies and a reaffi rmation of the ideology of white beauty. Introduction Studying Race in Beauty Pageants than simple phenotypes, in beauty pageants Browsing through the headshots of the Although race is a socially constructed where the body is visually displayed, physical 2011 contestants on the websites of the Miss concept, the concept of race and racism appearance is a noticeable way of signifying World and the Miss Universe pageants, the persists3, and in order to study racial race.5 Moreover, the general public that view women’s beauty was indisputable.

  • Masculinity in Men Beauty Pageant
    12/23/2014 Finol Masculinity in men beauty pageant José Enrique Finol Ritual, by focusing in the making and remaking of the body, produces the sociopolitical context in which it takes place while also attempting to transform it. Catherine Bell Introduction Men beauty pageants were the following natural step after women beauty pageants spread almost all over the world. Those who handle this kind of shows knew that male body was also a product they can merchandise as they have been doing with the female body the last thirty years. If this step came slowly it was because the process of reducing the semiotic differences between masculine and feminine was also slow. Masculinity and femininity were two extremes of the gender differences meant to express not only a sex difference but the separation of two worlds and two cultures. Men not only establish their own world as an affirmation of their identity and control, but also as a rejection of a feminine world they always charged with negative connotations, and, consequently, placed at the bottom of the cultural and social scale. Any meaning related to feminine was presented as inferior, and the women body was always seen just as instrument of pleasure and reproduction, even as ornament of a triunphant man. Its mysteries were always source of fears, and, consequently, feminine body had to be controlled and mastered. Seen not as an equal body, women¹s body had to be under surveillance, and under a process of identification and, by doing so, a process aimed to make women¹s body different.

  • ​Azra Akin, Agbani Darego, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Amina Nawal
    Azra Akin, Agbani Darego, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Amina Nawal ​ On November 17, 2001, 18-year-old Agbani Darego from Nigeria was crowned Miss World. The finals were hosted by Jerry Springer and took place in Sun City in the heart of South Africa. Nelson Mandela was guest of honor. This year, pride prevailed over the usual criticism (1) of the event as a bikini-parade: Darego was the first black African Miss World, a shining example to many girls and women all over Africa, for whom having a fair complexion was still the highest ideal in beauty (2). Darego, a resident of Southern Nigeria, made it specifically clear she's a Christian. Her very special thanks went out to “God, whom [she would] always remain grateful [to] for crowning [her] life with his love…” Nigeria, after having lurched from one military coup to another, had had an elected leadership since 1999, when Olusegun Obasanjo came to power. But the political liberalization ushered in by the return to civilian rule allowed militants from the many different ethnic and religious groups (3) to express their frustrations more freely, and with increasing violence. Since 1999 thousands of people had died in communal rivalry, and separatist aspirations among some groups started to grow. The gradual imposition of Islamic law, Shari'ah, in twelve of the impoverished, predominantly Islamic, northern states solidified divisions and caused thousands of Christians to flee to the south after more than 3,000 had died in bloody protest marches. The Shari'ah courts imposed strict punishments, including floggings and amputations for transgressions like theft (4) and adultery.

  • Miss Danmark Et Modsætningsfuldt Ideal
    MISS DANMARK ET MODSÆTNINGSFULDT IDEAL Kandidatspeciale, Kommunikation 10. semester. Vejleder: Lars Pynt Josefine Løvig Rasmussen, studienr: 20171308, [email protected] Anslag: 191,921 ≈ 80 normalsider 1 ABSTRACT Although beauty pageants have never had the same mass appeal in Denmark as they seem to have in countries such as the USA, they haven´t completely faded into vague, kitschy nostalgia either. The pageant “Miss Danmark” seems to have been thriving on its own in the periphery of the pub- lic eye for almost a century. This thesis investigates the pageant seen as a platform for a gendered performance of a feminine ideal. Additionally, this thesis sees the ambassadors, judges and contestants of the pageant as cultural manufacturers, who construct and reconstruct the competition’s feminine ideal through a rela- tional discourse about looks, styling, clothes, behavior, values etc. I apply a discourse analysis of the communication originating from Miss Danmark’s website and Facebook site, as well as of interviews with contestants, mentors and judges found in the documentary Miss Perfect (2019). I am interested in investigating which understandings of ideal femininity are expressed as norma- tive, which qualities are emphasized, and which are reprimanded. Furthermore, I investigate the structure of the pageant. The feminine ideal is also constructed and reconstructed through the pageants structure, as it contains certain mandatory requirements for participation, a number of disciplines in which the contestants’ performance can be judged, a number of rounds with different dress and rules, and a system in which certain performances are celebrated through sashes, prices and high placements in the competition, while others are not.
