  • Piracy Or Productivity: Unlawful Practices in Anime Fansubbing
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Aaltodoc Publication Archive Aalto-yliopisto Teknillinen korkeakoulu Informaatio- ja luonnontieteiden tiedekunta Tietotekniikan tutkinto-/koulutusohjelma Teemu Mäntylä Piracy or productivity: unlawful practices in anime fansubbing Diplomityö Espoo 3. kesäkuuta 2010 Valvoja: Professori Tapio Takala Ohjaaja: - 2 Abstract Piracy or productivity: unlawful practices in anime fansubbing Over a short period of time, Japanese animation or anime has grown explosively in popularity worldwide. In the United States this growth has been based on copyright infringement, where fans have subtitled anime series and released them as fansubs. In the absence of official releases fansubs have created the current popularity of anime, which companies can now benefit from. From the beginning the companies have tolerated and even encouraged the fan activity, partly because the fans have followed their own rules, intended to stop the distribution of fansubs after official licensing. The work explores the history and current situation of fansubs, and seeks to explain how these practices adopted by fans have arisen, why both fans and companies accept them and act according to them, and whether the situation is sustainable. Keywords: Japanese animation, anime, fansub, copyright, piracy Tiivistelmä Piratismia vai tuottavuutta: laittomat toimintatavat animen fanikäännöksissä Japanilaisen animaation eli animen suosio maailmalla on lyhyessä ajassa kasvanut räjähdysmäisesti. Tämä kasvu on Yhdysvalloissa perustunut tekijänoikeuksien rikkomiseen, missä fanit ovat tekstittäneet animesarjoja itse ja julkaisseet ne fanikäännöksinä. Virallisten julkaisujen puutteessa fanikäännökset ovat luoneet animen nykyisen suosion, jota yhtiöt voivat nyt hyödyntää. Yhtiöt ovat alusta asti sietäneet ja jopa kannustaneet fanien toimia, osaksi koska fanit ovat noudattaneet omia sääntöjään, joiden on tarkoitus estää fanikäännösten levitys virallisen lisensoinnin jälkeen.

  • Mispronouncing Resistance: Uncovering Tales and Lessons in the Production of Creative Cultural Expression in Singapore
    Mispronouncing Resistance: Uncovering Tales and Lessons in the Production of Creative Cultural Expression in Singapore Shuxia Tai April 23, 2009 A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environment Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environment Studies, York University, Ontario, Canada. Abstract This paper is the author’s endeavor to understand Singapore and the ways that ordinary residents express alternative views in a highly politically controlled but affluent environment. Unlike actions of resistance elsewhere, Singaporeans engage in less aggressive activities of non-confrontational or covert resistance to avoid inconveniences with the law. By looking into cases of non-confrontational cultural resistance, I suggest that ideas of resistance in authoritarian countries as solely created to oppose the ruling class or the state should be reconsidered. Although non-confrontational resistance in my case studies may be read as criticisms of the state, they are also examples of power relationships between residents of different ethnicities and social class, and between corporations/ international organizations and the people. To investigate why and how people resist covertly or indeed resist, I propose to look into the conditions that influence their views and decisions. This includes the ways that global and local activities and connections affect the individual’s knowledge and perspectives.

  • Family Firms and Brand Products in Malaysia: Originality, Productivity and Sustainability
    Edmund Terence Gomez and Wong Yee Tuan __________________________________ Family Firms and Brand Products in Malaysia: Originality, Productivity and Sustainability EDMUND TERENCE GOMEZ AND WONG YEE TUAN Abstract Two key questions in Malaysia's corporate history have not yet been answered. Why is it that only a small number of family firms produce brand products? Why has none emerged as a major publicly listed enterprise? This study employs concepts from family business literature as well as Alfred Chandler, Jr's business history approach to answer these questions. A blend of conceptual tools from these two bodies of literature offers insights into the evolution of these brand product family firms. By adopting this approach, this study reveals that the core issues requiring scrutiny are an enterprise's volume of investments in research and development, a skilled managerial team and an effective marketing tech- nique. Other issues include the need for a sound succession plan and a focus on a horizontal form of enterprise development. This article also reviews the capacity of the state to enable as well as hamper the rise of domestic brand product firms. K e y w o r d s : family firms, Chandler, brand products, Malaysia The Puzzle: Family Firms and Brand Products A major concern about family firms with a long and leading presence in the Malaysian economy is that they have no reputation for produc- ing brand products, i.e., a consumer good or service embodied in a trademark, design or symbol that has emerged as a household name (Acker 2002; Anholt 2005). This is the case even though families con- trol about 40 per cent of publicly listed companies, while the top ten families own a quarter of total market capitalization of the country's stock exchange, Bursa Malaysia.

Kuala Lumpur City Hall has already said that Padang Merbok is off limits to Pakatan, as the field has been ‘booked’ for a run organised by the Olympic Council of Malaysia on Sunday, because the organiser had to make preparations on Saturday. Despite this, as well as pressure from the authorities to hold the rally in a stadium, Pakatan has refused to budge from its decision.

To those who feel lonely and abandoned by this world because of their “childish” interests, without these interests this work would remain just a random thought in a closed mind.
