  • Lee FAV SB664 Uploaded By: Senator Lee, Senator Lee Position: FAV
    Lee_FAV_SB664 Uploaded by: Senator Lee, Senator Lee Position: FAV March 11, 2020 Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee SB 664 – Declaration of Rights – Right to Privacy Senate Bill 664 proposes an amendment to the Maryland constitution that enshrines Marylanders right to privacy and freedom from government intrusion as Article 48 of the Declaration of Rights. The language broadly provides that each individual has a natural, essential, and inherent right to privacy that guarantees freedom from government intrusion. The proposed amendment specifically enumerates Marylanders right to live free from government and non-government intrusion caused by the unauthorized collection of personal data. An individual’s right to privacy has been recognized as a fundamental human, social and political right by the international community. Article 12 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights enumerates a right to privacy, as does the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, to which the U.S. is a signatory and a party. Further, 11 state Constitutions have an explicit provision regarding the right to privacy. Six of these states explicitly enumerate privacy as an individual right separate from protections against unreasonable searches and seizures. Those six states run the gambit of ideological diversity from California to Montana to Florida to Alaska. The deep purple state of New Hampshire added an individual right to privacy to their Constitution in 2018 with bipartisan backing in the both legislative chambers and over 80% support from voters on a subsequent referendum. The broad right to individual privacy is accepted as the norm across the world and in many states around the country; it should be an explicit right of all Marylanders.

  • The Abortion Game: Writing a Consciously Political Narrative Nonfiction Work
    The Abortion Game: Writing a Consciously Political Narrative Nonfiction Work A PhD research thesis (Creative Writing), with manuscript (creative component) and exegesis (analytical component), submitted for the College of Arts, Victoria University Jacinda Woodhead June 2015 Woodhead | PhD manuscript and exegesis i The Abortion Game: Writing a Consciously Political Narrative Nonfiction Work Abstract In this creative‐writing research project, I set out to create a narrative nonfiction manuscript that investigates the contemporary politics surrounding abortion. The fundamental question driving the creative manuscript was, ‘Why is abortion largely invisible in Australia?’ Abortion is the second‐most common therapeutic surgical procedure in Australia, yet the history, the politics and the practice of abortion remain hidden from view. This invisibility allows us to avoid grappling with and confronting the complicated issues abortion raises. Using techniques commonly associated with fiction writing, such as narrative arc, characterisation, dialogue and scenes, the 69,000‐word manuscript investigates the factors, tiers and characters involved with abortion in Australia. The narrative nonfiction manuscript should be read first. The manuscript is accompanied by a 31,500‐word exegesis analysing the production, lineage and ethical implications of consciously political narrative nonfiction, a term that refers to works that make deliberate political interventions. Similarly to Hartsock (2000), I argue that when writing a consciously political narrative nonfiction work, the writer does not objectify the world as something different or alien from the reader, and instead strives to render characters as complex human beings. The exegesis reviews theories of ethics, objectivity and narrative within a form that is fundamentally journalism, yet can never fit within this narrow definition as it is primarily about mapping the cultural other (Sanderson 2004).

  • Dissenting Fiction Re-Righting Law: Practice-Led Research Into Biopolitics, Women’S Rights and Reproductive Justice in Ecuador
    Dissenting fiction re-righting law: practice-led research into biopolitics, women’s rights and reproductive justice in Ecuador María Teresa Galarza Neira ORCID ID 0000-0003-3358-9125 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (by creative work and dissertation) Victorian College of the Arts Faculty of VCA and MCM The University of Melbourne October-2017 1 Abstract Through a feature-length screenplay and accompanying dissertation this creative practice as research project addresses questions of biopolitics, women’s rights and reproductive justice. The research focuses on my own country, Ecuador, but alludes to a broader Latin American context. In this research, the practice of fiction screenplay writing configured my own understanding of the addressed issues. Based on this understanding, in the dissertation, reflecting upon “The Ladies Room” screenplay, I formulate an explanation around these issues. The first chapter of the dissertation focuses on the legislative context of “The Ladies Room” story. The second, third, fourth and fifth chapters articulate the possible world the screenplay proposes, relative to our four protagonists, respectively. The first chapter juxtaposes Ecuadorian Constitutional and Criminal Law, and public policy, against international human rights instruments with regard to women’s rights. Through the screenplay’s character of Isabel, the second chapter interrogates reproductive coercion and access to safe abortion, the notion of potentiality (not) to, the institution of motherhood and the practice of mothering. The third chapter revolves around Marcia, and how this female character embodies forms of biopolitical power that discipline the body and regulate the population; this chapter also reflects upon the family as an institution and the differential valuation between productive and reproductive work.

  • Social Representations in Colombia of Women and Men Having Abortions
    Social Representations in Colombia of Women and Men Having Abortions Master’s Thesis, Department of Psychology UNIVERSITY OF OSLO May 2019 Social Representations in Colombia of Women and Men Having Abortions Live Grimstvedt Lystad © Live Grimstvedt Lystad 2019 Social Representations in Colombia of Women and Men Having Abortions Live Grimstvedt Lystad http://www.duo.uio.no Print: Reprosentralen (University Print Centre), University of Oslo II Abstract Author: Live Grimstvedt Lystad Title: Social Representations in Colombia of Women and Men Having Abortions Supervisor: Sigrun Marie Moss This research aimed to investigate what social representations are held by people in Colombia of women and men who have abortions. The study is based on interview data material collected in Bogotá, Colombia, through semi-structured individual interviews and focus group interviews conducted by the author, with help from an interpreter. A total of 24 people were interviewed on issues around abortion, in 14 separate interviews. The study participants were female and male, ranging in age from 21 to 66 years old. The interview data were analyzed through a thematic analysis approach. Based on the participants’ accounts, five representations of women and, to some extent, men having an abortion were constructed: “women as promiscuous”, “irresponsible”, “bad person”, “murderer” and “autonomous decision maker”. These are in this thesis discussed in light of social representations theory, including participants’ statements on the societal context in which these representations exist. Representations held in Colombian society of people having abortions were perceived by participants to be generally negative. There was seemingly more negativity connected to representations of women having an abortion than men involved in an abortion.
