National Symbols As Commemorative Emblems in Nigerian Films
European Scientific Journal January 2018 edition Vol.14, No.2 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 National Symbols as Commemorative Emblems in Nigerian Films Alawode, Sunday Olayinka PhD Adesanya, Oluseyi Olufunke Agboola, Olufunsho Cole Lagos State University School Of Communication Lagos, Osodi, Lagos State, Nigeria Religion, Communication and Culture Working Group Doi: 10.19044/esj.2018.v14n2p100 URL:http://dx.doi.org/10.19044/esj.2018.v14n2p100 Abstract Nigerian films worldwide are the entertainment offerings of the nation, a burgeoning industry with steady increase growth rate and contributing substantially to the GDP of the nation. National symbols are objects, entities and relics representing an idea, concept, character that may be physical, abstract, religious, cultural, and linguistic among others in a sovereign context and beyond. Symbols or objects that connected together may not have anything in common in reality but by association and common agreement, they have come to represent each other in social contexts; a symbol may arbitrarily denote a referent, icon and index. In the case of Nigeria, the National flag, Anthem, Pledge, Currency, language, Coat of arms, National institutions like the National Assembly complex, Federal Capital Territory (FCT), images of past leaders, historical monuments like the Unknown Soldier (representing military men who died in the cause of protecting the nation), dresses are some of these national symbols. Apart from commemorative historical functions, national symbols are also used to represent hard work, credibility or truthfulness, as well as ethnic differentiation, religious affiliation, cultural background, social status, professional orientation, class distinction among others. Theorizing with Gate-keeping and Framing Analysis, this study adopts a content analysis design which is the study of recorded human communications, an objective and systematic analysis of the contents of any document that are manifest. -

Knowlton and Adam C. Sales* The proportions of a flag are an integral part of a flag’s design. In some cases, the proportions are the only way to distinguish between otherwise identical flags, such as Monaco (16:21) and Indonesia (2:3).1 Bruce Nicolls notes that medieval flags were often square or even taller than they were wide, but the seventeenth century saw an increase of their widths, likely due to “the increasing use of flags at sea, where the additional length improved flying qualities and reduced the rate ALL OTHERS of fraying.”2 Today, almost all flags are rectangular and longer than they are tall.

Beyond Ethnicity: African Protests in an Age of Inequality
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Beyond Ethnicity: African Protests in an Age of Inequality A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Lisa Michele Mueller 2014 c Copyright by Lisa Mueller 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Beyond Ethnicity: African Protests in an Age of Inequality by Lisa Michele Mueller Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Miriam Golden, Chair What explains African protests in an age of rising prosperity? I show that the main cause of the increasingly frequent urban protests that we observe in twenty-first century Africa is economic inequality despite substantial economic growth. Using cross-national statistical analyses of most African countries and original ethnographic and individual-level survey data from fieldwork in Niger, I find that African protests are driven largely by economic or material con- cerns, and less by ethnic antipathies or preferences for democracy. Examining different forms of inequality and grievance, I show that Africans are more likely to protest, all else equal, if they perceive their future economic opportunities as constricting instead of expanding. Economic or material concerns, however, are not sufficient to cause protest participation. Corroborating other scholars' research, I also find that social networks are important for mobilizing aggrieved people by providing solutions for coordination and cooperation problems. ii This dissertation of Lisa Michele Mueller is approved.

Germany ebcid:com.britannica.oec2.identifier.ArticleIdentifier?tocId=0&articleId... Germany Britannica Elementary Article Introduction Germany is a country of north-central Europe. It ranks among the world's leading economic powers. Germany was created in the 1800s through the unification of various European states. In the 1900s, the country was devastated by the two world wars. Flag of Germany For 45 years after World War II, Germany was divided into two countries. The German Democratic Republic, or East Germany, became a Communist country. The Federal Republic of Germany, or West Germany, prospered as a democracy. The collapse of Communism in eastern Europe in 1989 led to the reunification of Germany on 3 October 1990. The capital of Germany is Berlin. The instrumental version of the national anthem of Germany. Geography Germany is bordered by nine countries: Denmark to the north; the Czech Republic and Poland to the east; Switzerland and Austria to the south; and France, Luxembourg, Belgium and The Netherlands to the west. It also has two coasts: one eastwards from Denmark on the Baltic Sea and a second westwards from Denmark along the North Sea. One of Europe's largest countries, Germany covers an area of 356,973 square kilometres (137,828 square miles) and has a wide variety of landscapes. The southern part of the country, lying mostly within the state of Bavaria, is mountainous. The scenic Bavarian Alps reach an elevation of 2,962 metres (9,718 feet) at Zugspitze, Germany's highest peak. These alpine ranges are cut by rivers and deep, cold lakes. -

*This is the Project Gutenberg Etext of The CIA World Factbook* *****This file should be named world12.txt or world12.zip****** Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, xxxxx11.txt. VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, xxxxx10a.txt. Information about Project Gutenberg (one page) We produce about one million dollars for each hour we work. One hundred hours is a conservative estimate for how long it we take to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is one hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar, then we produce a million dollars per hour; next year we will have to do four text files per month, thus upping our productivity to two million/hr. The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away One Trillion Etext Files by the December 31, 2001. [10,000 x 100,000,000=Trillion] This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers.
