  • The Korean Wave As a Localizing Process: Nation As a Global Actor in Cultural Production
    THE KOREAN WAVE AS A LOCALIZING PROCESS: NATION AS A GLOBAL ACTOR IN CULTURAL PRODUCTION A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Ju Oak Kim May 2016 Examining Committee Members: Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Advisory Chair, Department of Journalism Nancy Morris, Professor, Department of Media Studies and Production Patrick Murphy, Associate Professor, Department of Media Studies and Production Dal Yong Jin, Associate Professor, School of Communication, Simon Fraser University © Copyright 2016 by Ju Oak Kim All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation research examines the Korean Wave phenomenon as a social practice of globalization, in which state actors have promoted the transnational expansion of Korean popular culture through creating trans-local hybridization in popular content and intra-regional connections in the production system. This research focused on how three agencies – the government, public broadcasting, and the culture industry – have negotiated their relationships in the process of globalization, and how the power dynamics of these three production sectors have been influenced by Korean society’s politics, economy, geography, and culture. The importance of the national media system was identified in the (re)production of the Korean Wave phenomenon by examining how public broadcasting-centered media ecology has control over the development of the popular music culture within Korean society. The Korean Broadcasting System (KBS)’s weekly show, Music Bank, was the subject of analysis regarding changes in the culture of media production in the phase of globalization. In-depth interviews with media professionals and consumers who became involved in the show production were conducted in order to grasp the patterns that Korean television has generated in the global expansion of local cultural practices.

A central theme running throughout the collection is law, broadly, and the ways in which people adhere to or sometimes break from a particular rule, be it social or legislative. In each case, the role of law and its correlation to place and identity—either overt or veiled— serves as a major component of each story.

Accompanied by literature survey, this study engineered construction examines the aesthetics of Ralph Rucci's designs by content analysis of his works, Rucci’s designs since his debut collection of 1994 until he left the Chado Ralph Rucci label in 2014 and his returning collection under the new label, RR331, in 2016. Ralph Rucci developed his creative designs by the following strategies: First, he reinvents the couture tradition of Balenciaga and Grès into progressive and functional American couture in that he gives consideration to a wearer's movements and comforts. Second, Rucci constructs architectural volume based on human anatomy and architectonic strategies, with the attention to three-dimensional quality of the space built between the body and a garment. Third, he conducts engineered construction summarized by his original 'suspension' techniques, which function as both ornamentation and construction. Ⅰ. Introduction extraordinary surface decorations, artistic inspirations, Ralph Rucci, the first American designer to officially mathematically calculated constructions, and most of all, present his collection during Paris couture week since his architectural garment structures.

  • Indigenous Performers and the Russia-China Border
    From Reindeer to MTV: Indigenous Performers and the Russia-China Border Ed Pulford Abstract For the northeast Asian indigenous people today known as Nanai in Russia and Hezhe in China, the inter-state border which has long divided them remains a key referent in discourses of local identity. Yet this paper suggests that for all the discussion of the Nanai/Hezhe as a “cross-border” minority, the border between them is in fact sustained by the paradoxical fact that many pay little attention to it. Through examining the life stories of arguably the most famous Nanai and Hezhe – singers and actors named Kola Beldy and Han Geng – the Russia-China border is revealed not only as a firm and strictly- policed line in physical space, but also as a gap between worlds of possibility and projected aspiration. Beldy and Han’s cases show that many borderland dwellers live with their backs to the border, subtly reinforcing the inter-state divide in everyday ways at least as powerful as official sovereignty regimes. Introduction: The Nanai, Hezhe and the Russia-China Border1 Ancestors of the northeast Asian indigenous people today known as Nanai in Russia and Hezhe in China were already living along the Rivers Amur, Sungari and Ussuri long before the (Manchu-)Chinese and Russian empires definitively established their respective presences in this region (see Figure 1).2 But since the mid-nineteenth century the actions of these polities and their successor states – down to today’s People’s Republic of China (PRC) and Russian Federation – have had a decisive bearing on all areas of Nanai and Hezhe life.

  • MARCH 1980 "ENNSYLVANIA He the Keystone State's I Official FISHING BOATING
    MARCH 1980 "ENNSYLVANIA He the Keystone State's I Official FISHING BOATING • •• 40$ Ji n.gler_ r Single Copy; Coal Problems — In Pennsylvania much has changed over the last 25 years. The original Clean Streams Legislation, one of the models used when national legislation was being prepared in the 60s, has been strengthened. Federal funds helped to clean up point source problems and effective treatment plants have made possible repeated miracles, as what appeared to be incurably fouled streams were brought back to life. Along with the streams, the towns and cities on the banks of these streams were themselves revived and given new life. Pennsylvania has an estimated 45,000 miles of streams, the highest in the nation. Extrapolating on our last survey and coordinating this with DER's information, by 1983 we will expect that only 8,557 stream miles will be degraded for most recreational use because of mining activity. Because one source on one small stream can pollute many miles of a major receiving water, there are great opportunities to reduce that polluted mileage within a reasonable time. In view of this, it is not unusual that we, whose mission requires stewardship of the quality of our water resources, are somewhat skeptical about the claims of the mining industry when they assure us that they have been reborn and that their current activities will not further damage the water quality. Comparison of a map of areas mined in Pennsylvania in the past with that of streams degraded for fishing shows an almost exact fit. Preservation of the quality of the water to maintain viable fisheries is a more difficult task today than ever.
