  • Gambling in the Mid-Nineteenth-Century Latin American Social Imaginary
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Carolina Digital Repository GAMBLING IN THE MID-NINETEENTH-CENTURY LATIN AMERICAN SOCIAL IMAGINARY Emily Joy Clark A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Studies (Spanish). Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Rosa Perelmuter Juan Carlos González Espitia Emilio del Valle Escalante Irene Gómez Castellano John Charles Chasteen © 2016 Emily Joy Clark ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Emily Joy Clark: Gambling in the Mid-Nineteenth-Century Latin American Social Imaginary (Under the direction of Rosa Perelmuter) Economic themes appear in many nineteenth-century Latin American narratives, but the representation of gambling and other forms of speculative capitalist commerce, such as investment, trade, and mining, is a largely unexplored area of critical literary analysis. This dissertation examines the depiction of gambling and other games of chance, as well as financially-speculative endeavors, in eight texts from the mid-nineteenth century throughout Hispanic America, including José Joaquín Fernández de Lizardi’s El Periquillo Sarniento (1816), Eduardo Gutiérrez’s Juan Moreira (1879), Rosario Orrego’s Alberto el jugador (1860), Teresa González de Fanning’s Regina (1886), Gertrudis Gómez de Avellaneda’s Sab (1841), Alberto Blest Gana’s Martín Rivas (1862), José Ramón de Betancourt’s Una feria de la caridad en 183… (1841, 1858), and José Milla’s Los Nazarenos (1867). In the four chapters of the dissertation, I analyze four different perspectives on gambling and its repercussions in society as it applies to gender (Chapters 1 and 2), social class (Chapter 3), and the role of the citizen in post-independence Latin American nation states (Chapter 4).

    THEMATIC COMPILATION OF RELEVANT INFORMATION SUBMITTED IN RELATION TO ARTICLE 6 OF THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTION AGAINST CORRUPTION PREVENTIVE ANTI-CORRUPTION BODY OR BODIES AUSTRIA (SECOND MEETING) The Federal Bureau of Anti-Corruption of the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Interior (.BAK) provides the following information on Austrian activities/"good practices" in the prevention of corruption: Since the establishment of the Federal Bureau of Anti-Corruption (BAK) on 1 January 2010, which is based on a new law, prevention of corruption has been one of the Bureau's main focuses, Prevention is an essential element in the fight against corruption. Experiences of anti-corruption authorities show that there is a strong need for more operationally-oriented training opportunities. Therefore, the European Anti-Corruption Training (EACT), based on an Austrian initiative, is carried out from 2011 to 2013 together with anticorruption authorities of Slovenia and Slovakia in order to enhance the practical skills in fighting and preventing corruption. Under the slogan "Practice Meets Practice", EACT offers an innovative, multistage approach to develop good practices by the exchange of experience between European countries. EACT is a platform for representatives of anti-corruption institutions as well as police and judicial authorities (public prosecutor's offices and public prosecutor's offices against corruption) of European Countries that would like to provide their experience and/or gain new insights into the field of anti-corruption by exchanging

I learned some fancy words along the way, but most of the knowledge belongs to them and to my community of dancing/cafetera-wielding/laughing/DJ-Laz-listening/perreando Cubans and Brazilians in Miami. I am so grateful to these communities and to my parents—Ronnie and Maria Soares—for living their lives in a way that not only inspires me, but also shows critical theory a thing or two.

  • Globalizing Trends in Colombian Higher Education
    LOCAL RESPONSES TO GLOBALIZATION: POLICY, CURRICULA, AND STUDENT CULTURAL PRODUCTIONS AT A COLOMBIAN PUBLIC UNIVERSITY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Stephanie Lynn Daza, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by: Professor Patricia Lather, Co-Advisor ______________________________ Associate Professor Peter Demerath, Co-Advisor ______________________________ Co-Advisors, College of Education ii © Copyright by Stephanie Lynn Daza 2006 All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Globalizing trends—underscored by neoliberalism, privatization, and imperial legacies—are changing the nature and purpose of education across the world. Manifestations of these trends, however, vary in different locales, as do responses to them. Indeed, globalizing trends are continuously shaped and reshaped by local practices in diverse contexts. Drawing on theoretical perspectives from discourse analysis and cultural studies, this dissertation analyzes and complicates local discursive formations of globalizing trends at La Universidad Industrial de Santander (UIS), a public university in Colombia, South America. Based on ethnographic fieldwork conducted at the UIS between July 2003 and June 2004, this dissertation examines local, national, and global dynamics in UIS policy, curriculum, and student cultural productions. By analyzing student-produced materials, including graffiti, campaign flyers, and political cartoons as local practices in response to globalizing trends, this study shows that such cultural productions openly contest and reshape globalizing trends. These student materials offer counter-discourses that reconstitute globalizing trends as “US imperialism” and as shared pubic, not private, concerns. Complicating the decolonizing effects produced by their counter-discourses, some student-produced materials ignore or reify gender and other hierarchies in order to resist imperial-global ones.
