The film is a documentary of an event-based collaborative project by artist Jeremy Deller, which re-enacted a demonstration of the British Miners’ strike on June 18 1984. Deller worked collaboratively with those involved in the original strike and members of battle re-enactment societies in the UK in order to reconstruct the original demonstration and confrontations with police. Further details of the re-enactment are on the EventPlan Limited website, an organisation who worked with Jeremy Deller: http://www.historicalfilmservices.mysite1952.co.uk/orgreave.htm. Their overview notes that the recreation had a significant “positive effect on the local community” and that “a belated healing process had began for many Orgreave ‘veterans’, who until the recreation had found the memory of June 1984 just too painful to discuss”. The original demonstration saw a violent clash between striking miners and police at a British Steel coking plant, in the English mining town of Orgreave in South Yorkshire. It occurred at the height of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s attempts to close numerous steel works and rout the labour power of the National Union of Mineworkers (NUM). The original protest involved between 5000 and 6000 picketers organised by the NUM, and saw the police deploy between 4000 and 8000 officers from 10 counties in order to stop the demonstration. In the resulting confrontation ninety-five picketers were charged with riot, unlawful assembly and other offences and many people were injured. The later trial regarding the incident collapsed and all charges were dropped. A number of lawsuits were brought against the police for unlawful arrest, and £425,000 compensation and £100,000 in legal costs was later paid in an out of court settlement. This image is used by kind permission of Jeremy Deller and Mike Figgis. iv Interface: a journal for and about social movements Editorial Volume 3 (1): 1 - 11 (May 2011) Flesher Fominaya and Wood, Repression Editorial: repression and social movements Cristina Flesher Fominaya, Lesley Wood With the events of the “Arab Spring” revolutions fresh in our minds, an Interface issue dedicated to repression and social movements may seem very timely. But the fact is that any time is a good time to reflect on repression and social movements. The two realities go hand in hand and have always done so. Any reader can cast their minds back and call up their own memories of social movement repression, whether experienced first-hand, handed down as oral history, witnessed on TV from the relative comfort of a living room sofa, or drawn from a passage in a history book. Suffragettes being force-fed in prison in the UK in the early 1900s, vicious dogs attacking civil rights protesters in the Southern United States, the execution of environmental and indigenous rights activist Ken Saro Wiwa in Nigeria, the systematic kidnapping, torture and assassination of political activists in Argentina’s Dirty War, the massacre of students in Tlatelolco and Tiananmen Square: the list, unfortunately, goes on and on. While these examples are striking representations of repression, the repression of social movements does not always take such visible forms. Much repression of social movements is deliberately invisible – from surveillance and infiltration to the mysterious deaths of labour unionist and environmental whistleblower Karen Silkwood or peace activist and Green Party founder Petra Kelly. Sometimes the media make repression invisible by not reporting it. Of course some forms of repression are difficult to detect, because the mechanisms used are subtle and institutionalized. Examples of this are the ways that intellectuals working in the academy are denied tenure or suspended for their critical intellectual work, or for their movement engagement. A few decades ago, scholars standing up for civil rights for women and ethnic “minorities” often faced hostile administrations. Even in theoretically liberal countries, critical scholars questioning the uses and abuses of anti-terrorism legislation, like Dr. Rod Thornton at the University of Nottingham, can be suspended or arrested1. General blacklisting processes, surveillance, “unspoken” understandings that joining a trade union might cost you your job or promotion, and public proceedings such as the House Un-American Activities Committee (1938-1975), are other examples of institutional mechanisms that silence and discourage dissent and activism. 1 http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2011/may/04/nottingham-university-row-after- lecturer-suspended 1 Interface: a journal for and about social movements Editorial Volume 3 (1): 1 - 11 (May 2011) Flesher Fominaya and Wood, Repression The contradictory effects of repression But repression doesn’t always demobilize movements. Sometimes it inspires greater resistance, and wider participation in protest. The Egyptian uprising this year was after all, partly triggered by the police beating and murder of Khaled Said. Even in cases of more subtle repression - the banning of protest, or the rumoured or threatened arrest of a leader - mobilization often increases. It seems that sometimes repression inspires more mobilization; and sometimes it effectively quashes movements or pushes them underground. Sometimes repressive forces are successful in characterizing protestors as legitimate targets of repression, and other times they delegitimize the State and increase the legitimacy of the social movements.

Daniel: Hello, I'm Daniel Zomparelli, and I'm afraid of everything and I want to know what scares you, so I've invited people to tell me what they're afraid of. Then I talked with experts to dig a little deeper and get tips on how to deal. This is I'm Afraid That. Daniel: Cockroaches are disgusting. The worst incident I had with the cockroach was while on a family vacation at what I think was Sesame Street Themed Resort. My siblings and I got wasted at their fake nightclub that had an occupancy of about eight people, after too many vodka sodas I passed out. My sister told me later that I forced them at 2:00 AM to get me a grilled cheese. When it finally arrived, I refused to eat it. The next morning I woke up trying to piece together the night before when I was about to walk to the bathroom to shower a giant cockroach fell out of the air conditioner right on top of my head, into my hair. This is all to say that I am very afraid of family vacations now. Someone who is deeply afraid of cockroaches is Nailed It! Nicole Byer. We you talk with her about her deep fear of the bug and then we also talk with cockroach expert, Dr. Phillip G Koehler to learn more about the notorious pest. So we've got a special guest co-host today. Gabe: That's right.

    77 Representações sobre reality shows: o caso de Desilusões Futuristas e Morte ao Vivo 1 Representations of reality shows: the case of ‘Le couplé témoin’ and ‘La mort en direct’ 7 Valéria Cristina Lopes Wilke 2 Leila Beatriz Ribeiro 3 Carmen Irene Correia de Oliviera 4 RESUMO O objetivo deste trabalho é discutir a relação entre a exposição da vida privada em esferas midiáticas, analisando duas representações fílmicas – Desilusões futuristas e Morte ao vivo – que apresentam experimentações diferentes dentro modelo dos reality shows. Algumas estratégias estão em destaque e marcam as diferenças e semelhanças dessas duas produções. Partiremos das considerações sobre a sociedade do espetáculo (Debord) e sobre os reality shows para discutir o modo de representação, nos filmes, deste gênero televisivo e das relações presentes entre as instâncias envolvidas. Nas duas produções analisadas, percebemos uma leitura crítica centrada nas intencionalidades da produção e na exposição dos participantes, mas, também, uma focalização no papel daqueles que são os responsáveis diretos pela exposição ao vivo. PALavRAS-CHave realitiy shows; sociedade do espetáculo; filme; Desilusões futuristas; Morte ao vivo. ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to discuss the relationship between exposure levels of privacy for media, analyzing two filmic representations – Le couple témoin and La mort en direct - presenting different experiments within the model of reality shows. Some strategies are highlighted and mark the differences and similarities of these two productions. We leave the considerations about the society of the spectacle (Debord), on the reality show to discuss the mode of representation, in movies, this television genre and present relations between the actors involved.

  • The Sinister Political Life of Community
    NIGER DELTA ECONOMIES OF VIOLENCE WORKING PAPERS Working Paper No. 3 THE SINISTER POLITICAL LIFE OF COMMUNITY Economies of Violence and Governable Spaces in the Niger Delta, Nigeria Michael Watts Director, Institute of International Studies, University of California, Berkeley, USA 2004 Institute of International Studies, University of California, Berkeley, USA The United States Institute of Peace, Washington DC, USA Our Niger Delta, Port Harcourt, Nigeria 1 The Sinister Political Life of Community: Economies of Violence and Governable Spaces in the Niger Delta, Nigeria Michael Watts We seek to recover the . life of the community, as neither the “before” nor the “after” picture of any great human transformation. We see “communities” as creatures with an extraordinary and actually . quite sinister political life in the ground of real history. Kelly and Kaplan (2001:199) “Community” is an archetypal keyword in the sense deployed by Raymond Williams (1976). A “binding” word, suturing certain activities and their interpretation, community is also “indicative” (Williams’s term once again) in certain forms of thought. Deployed in the language for at least five hundred years, community has carried a range of senses denoting actual groups (for example “commoners” or “workers”) and connoting specific qualities of social relationship (as in communitas). By the nineteenth century, community was, of course, invoked as a way of talking about much larger issues, about modernity itself. Community—and its sister concepts of tradition and custom—now stood in sharp contrast to the more abstract, instrumental, individuated, and formal properties of state or society in the modern sense. A related shift in usage subsequently occurred in the twentieth century, when community came to refer to a form or style of politics distinct from the formal repertoires of national or local politics.

  • Implementing Screens Within Screens to Create Telepresence in Reality TV
    Implementing screens within screens to create telepresence in reality TV Daniel Klug ∗ 1, Axel Schmidt ∗y 2 1 Institute for Media Studies, University of Basel – Suisse 2 Institute for the German Language – Allemagne Following Gumbrecht’s (2004) draft of a theory of presence the notion of presence aims at spatial relations: Something is present if it is tangible or ‘in actual range’ (Sch´’utz/Luckmann 1979). Concerning the social world, Goffman (1971) understands co-presence in a similar way, as the chance to get in direct contact with each other. For this, the possibility of mutually perceiving each other is a precondition and is in turn made possible by a shared location. Goffman’s concept of co-presence is bound to a shared here and now and thus is based on a notion of situation with place as its central dimension. Interaction as a basic mode of human exchange builds on situations and the possibility of mutual perception allowing so called perceived perceptions in particular (Hausendorf 2003) as the main mechanism of focused encounters. Media studies, however, proved that both the notion of situation as place and interaction as co-presence need to be extended as mediated contact creates new forms of situations and interactions. Especially Meyrowitz (1990) shows that the notion of situation has to be detached from the dimension of place and instead be redefined in terms of mediated contact. Therefore, the question ”who can hear me, who can see me?” is the basis for individual orientation and should guide the analysis of (inter)action. Although media enlarges the scope of perception in this way, it is not just a simple extension, but a trans- formation process in which the mediation itself plays a crucial role.

Percebi claramente, contudo, que a fronteira entre esses dois grupos não é, absolutamente, impermeável, de modo que o que se tem é um constante exercício extrajurisdicional da competência (primária) de cada uma dessas pessoas. Em primeiro lugar, teoricamente no primeiro grupo, mas provando que no fundo o que se tem é uma grande cross-fertilization de contribuições, meus pais, acadêmicos sem cujo apoio e amor eu não teria chegado até aqui, e sem cuja influência eu certamente não teria desenvolvido o pensamento crítico que tento esboçar nas linhas deste trabalho. Pela amizade incondicional, fundamental nessa jornada, agradeço às minhas queridas Diana, Helena, Isabela, Naiana, Nicole e Priscila, que redefiniram meu conceito de amizade e cuja companhia me faz falta todo dia.

Orientadora: Profa. Dra. Maria Izabel Valladão de Carvalho Brasília 2007 Dedicatória Certa vez me disseram que se eu fosse um self-made man, eu poderia estar em qualquer lugar do mundo e alcançaria sucesso. Naquele momento acreditei que estava pronto para conquistar o mundo. Tentei, e todas as vezes que fracassei pude voltar para um lugar que me protegia e me dava forças para uma vez mais tentar. Hoje estou certo de que um self-made man nada mais é do que uma lança de sua própria família. É em casa, com o apoio dos familiares, que conseguimos encontrar o sorriso quando o mundo não parece tão engraçado, é lá que aprendemos a lutar pelo nosso espaço. É lá que aprendemos a valorizar a tradição e a acreditar na vanguarda. Dedicar essa tese à minha família é mais do que um prazer, é uma obrigação. É um reconhecimento público de sua importância na minha formação. É um reconhecimento que mais do que um self-made man sou um family-made man. Angélica, mãe sempre presente – em praticamente tudo! – e que sempre soube indicar o norte da família.
