  • Dance 6 Before
    And Then We Raved A REVIEW OF THE TBILISI NIGHTCLUB INDUSTRY 2019 TBILISI NIGHTCLUB INDUSTRY Tbilisi Nightclub industry Unlike Tbilisi itself, the city’s nightlife is not able to boast a long history. Yet, the city has achieved recognition as having one of Europe’s best underground scenes. In Georgia, clubbing is about more than just a wild night out. By dismantling stereotypes, Tbilisi underground movement is trying to modify the nation’s stodgy attitudes, which stem from the soviet regime. In this sense, Tbilisi’s clubs can be viewed as islands of free expression. The under- ground culture builds community and gathers like-minded people in one space. The search for new experiences has begun to define numerous sectors, and the nightclub industry is no exception. An unusual and authentic environment is now a crucial part of captivating an audience’s attention. That’s why club owners hunt for places that are guaranteed to create this kind of experience for ravers. In most cases, Tbilisi’s nightclubs are housed in old historical buildings, which adds an additional pull and creates an enigmatic atmosphere for ravers. This practice has been common in the EU for a long time already, especially in Berlin, where former factories and warehouses have been redesigned into clubs. New Trends These days, club owners are integrating the new concept by making night- club spaces available for artistic exhibitions and venues for multifunctional use.

D’Andrea’s is an insightful study of expressive indi- vidualism manifested in and through key cosmopolitan sites. This book is an 5 invaluable contribution to the anthropology/sociology of contemporary culture, 6 and presents required reading for students and scholars of new spiritualities, 7 techno-dance culture and globalization. 8 Graham St John, Research Fellow, 9 School of American Research, New Mexico 20111 1 D'Andrea breaks new ground in the scholarship on both globalization and the shaping of subjectivities. And he does so spectacularly, both through his focus 2 on neomadic cultures and a novel theorization. This is a deeply erudite book 3 and it is a lot of fun. 4 Saskia Sassen, Ralph Lewis Professor of Sociology 5 at the University of Chicago, and Centennial Visiting Professor 6 at the London School of Economics. 7 8 Global Nomads is a unique introduction to the globalization of countercultures, 9 a topic largely unknown in and outside academia. Anthony D’Andrea examines 30111 the social life of mobile expatriates who live within a global circuit of counter- 1 cultural practice in paradoxical paradises. 2 Based on nomadic fieldwork across Spain and India, the study analyzes how and why these post-metropolitan subjects reject the homeland to shape an alternative 3 lifestyle. They become artists, therapists, exotic traders and bohemian workers seek- 4 ing to integrate labor, mobility and spirituality within a cosmopolitan culture of 35 expressive individualism.

  • The Terror Attack on Bali, 2002
    The Terror Attack on Bali, 2002 Kamedo-report 89 The National Board of Health and Welfare classifies its publications into various document types. This is a document produced by specialists. This means that it is based on science and well-tried experience. The documents are usually prepared by external specialists commissioned by the National Board of Health and Welfare or the Institute for Evidence- Based Social Work Practice (IMS). The authors are solely responsible for the content and conclusions. The National Board of Health and Welfare/IMS does not draw conclusions in the document. The specialists’ The Committee for Disaster Medicine Studies (KAMEDO) has been in existence since 1964. It started under the auspices of the Swedish Research Delegation for Defence Medicine, which, however, was reorganized in 1974 and KAMEDO was transferred to the Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOA). In 1988, KAMEDO was integrated into the Unit for Emergency Preparedness at Socialstyrelsen/The National Board of Health and Welfare. KAMEDO's main task is to send observers to disaster areas all over the world to study recent disasters, collect useful information and to get familiarized with the problems of disaster medicine. The observers are sent to disaster areas with short notice; they collect relevant information on a collegial basis from doctors and others, thereby pointing out that all information received is strictly for scientific use. Four main groups of interest that have been studied are medical, psychological, organizational and social aspects of disasters. The results of the studies are published in KAMEDO-reports. Since 1979 (report No. 34) they all include an English summary which, as of No.

The fire occurred on the night of February 20, 2003 and resulted in 100 fatalities. Aer summarizing and calibrating the computational method used, parametric studies are conducted to quantitatively investigate the influences of the presence of social relationships and familiarity of the building floor plan on the death and injury tolls. It is demonstrated that the proposed model has the ability to reasonably handle the complex social relationships and group behaviors present during egress. The simulations quantify how intimate social ailiations delay the overall egress process and show the extent by which lack of knowledge of a building floor plan limits exit choices and adversely aects the number of safe evacuations.

  • THE BOOGIE! a NIGHTCLUB THAT DEFIED TRADITIONAL PROBLEM SOLVING EFFORTS Or When Jack Met SARA
    THE BOOGIE! A NIGHTCLUB THAT DEFIED TRADITIONAL PROBLEM SOLVING EFFORTS or when Jack met SARA Anaheim Police Department South District Community Policing Team Tourist Oriented Policing Team District Commander, Lieutenant David Vangsness Summary The Boogie, a nightclub that operated in Anaheim for over 25 years, maintained a reputation as one of the most popular clubs in Southern California. It operated under various banners including: The Crescendo, The Cowboy, The Bandstand, The Cowboy- Boogie and finally The Boogie. Each change in name represented a change in both the music format and the clientele who patronized the club. What remained constant were the challenges the club created for the community. As is often the case, the police department would be the driving force in addressing these challenges. The Boogie brought all of the common problems expected of a large nightclub. As with any concentration of alcohol, high-energy music and young adults, the club’s problems included: fights, intoxicated patrons and parking and traffic congestion. Beyond these “traditional” problems, in later years The Boogie severely impacted surrounding businesses, forcing them to hire security, close their doors during peak hours, and endure ongoing customer complaints. As the club evolved into a Hip-Hop and Rap format, stabbings, shootings and firearms seizures became routine. Two homicides were committed by patrons leaving the club in its last year of operation, 2006. The Anaheim Police Department became stuck in a recurring loop while trying to solve the challenges in and around The Boogie. Scanning revealed a problem; analysis suggested a fix; responses were usually effective; but assessment often turned into a new round of response and assessment, as a problem recurred, or a new problem arose.

  • “House and Techno Broke Them Barriers Down”: Exploring Exclusion Through Diversity in Berlin's Electronic Dance Music Nigh
    Gender Studies Department of Thematic Studies Linköping University “House and Techno Broke Them Barriers Down”: Exploring Exclusion through Diversity in Berlin’s Electronic Dance Music Nightclubs Naomi Alice Rodgers Supervisor name: Silje Lundgren Gender Studies, LiU Master’s Programme Gender Studies – Intersectionality and Change Master’s thesis 30 ECTS credits ISRN: LIU-TEMA G/GSIC2-A—15/003—SE 1 ABSTRACT Berlin is heralded worldwide as being a city that is open, innovative and diverse: a true multicultural metropolis. Music plays a central role in the city’s claim to this title. Go to any one of Berlin’s many notorious alternative nightclubs and you will hear techno, house and electronic dance music blasting out to hoards of enthusiastic partygoers. Many of these clubs and their participants claim that these parties represent diversity, acceptance, equality and tolerance: Spaces within which social divisions are suspended, difference is overcome and people are united. This ubiquitous discursive assertion is referred to in this thesis as a “diversity discourse”. This “diversity discourse” will be deconstructed and situated within a wider political context, with a specific focus on perceptions of race, ethnicity, sexuality and gender. Engaging with theories of intersectionality, post-colonial theory (looking specifically at Jasbir Puar’s important work on homonationalism) and employing qualitative methods such as in-depth interviews and autoethnographic inquiry, it will be argued that the “diversity discourse” works as a mask to conceal a reality of social segregation. Far from being sites of equality and diversity, it will be suggested that access to these nightclubs is premised on the possession of societal privilege.
