Richard Deakin 111 ABSTRACT Whateverperspective one takes, contradictions in the relationship between the capital and the provinces have always been evident to some extent, and the British undergroundpress of the late 1960s and early 1970s is no exception. The introductoryfirst chapter will definethe meaning of the term 'underground' in this context, and outline some of thesources used and the methodologies employed. Chapter Two will show how the British underground press developed froman alternative coterie of writers, poets, and artists - often sympathisers of the Campaign forNuclear Disarmament movement. It will also show how having developed from roots that were arguably provincial the undergroundadopted London as its base. The third chapter will take a more detailed look at the background of some London and provincial underground publications andwill attempt to see what extent the London undergroundpress portrayed the provinces, and vice-versa. In Chapter Four actual aspects of lifein urbanand rural settings, such as communes, squats, and pop festivals,will be examined in relation to the adoption of these lifestylesby the wider counterculture and how they were adapted to particular environments as part of an envisioned alternativesociety.

Boston College The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Department of Sociology NEW BOSTON MARRIAGES: NEWS REPRESENTATIONS, RESPECTABILITY, AND THE POLITICS OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE a dissertation by JEFFREY A. LANGSTRAAT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy May, 2009 © copyright by JEFFREY ALAN LANGSTRAAT 2009 ABSTRACT In 2006, Mariane Valverde announced the birth of what she called, “a new type in the history of sexuality” (155), the Respectable Same-Sex Couple. This work analyzes newspaper coverage of same-sex couples during the Massachusetts campaign for marriage equality to explore the content of and contours around that new socio-sexual category. The processes involved in the incorporation of lesbians and gay men into the governing relations of American society are used to explain the development of this type, and its replacement of the pathological Homosexual. The manufacture of respectability by movement activists is explored via the selection of “public face couples” as a framing strategy that links the lives of these couples to marriage itself and the hardships they suffer due to their inability to marry. The respectability of these couples and their incorporation as economic citizens is also linked to representations of professional status, upward mobility, economic success, and the creation of identity-based markets through entrepreneurial and consumptive practices.
