  • WHEN MARK TWAIN WAS I Urged to Take out an Insurance Policy To
    WHEN MARK TWAIN WAS I urged to take out an insurance policy to protect him from risk of accident while on the train trip for which he had just bought a ticket he declined, saying that he thought that instead he would take out a policy for the following day. The agent couldn't understand this, and Mark explained that he had been looking over the statistics and had discovered that by far the greatest number of accidents occurred to people while they were at home, so he concluded that it was more dangerous to stay at home than to travel. JUST NOW WE ARE Shocked by the number of deaths resulting from automobile accidents. Some statistician who has devoted considerable time to the subject compares automobile fatalities with deaths in war. According to his figures there were in the United States 388,936 deaths resulting directly from automobile accidents in the past fifteen years. And the record shows that in all the wars in which the United States has been engaged there were 244,357 American soldiers killed outright or fatally wounded on the field of battle. Probably Mark Twain would conclude that it is less dangerous to go to war than to ride in an automobile. BUT THAT IS NOT THE worst of it. It seems to be almost as dangerous to stay at home as it is to go joy-riding. In the year 1934 there were 36,000 persons killed by or in motor cars, and in the same year 34,500 persons were killed in accidents at home.

The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body.

  • Some Socio-Geographic Characteristics of Modern Labor Migration from Serbia and Montenegro to Denmark: Social Life and Social Relations Migrants
    International Letters of Social and Humanistic Sciences Online: 2013-09-25 ISSN: 2300-2697, Vol. 2, pp 1-17 doi:10.18052/www.scipress.com/ILSHS.2.1 © 2013 SciPress Ltd., Switzerland Some socio-geographic characteristics of modern labor migration from Serbia and Montenegro to Denmark: social life and social relations migrants Goran Rajović Street Vojvode Stepe 252, Belgrade, Serbia Phone: 003861/19-24-850 E-mail address: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper discusses some socio-geographical characteristics of contemporary labor migration from Serbia and Montenegro in Denmark, analyzed in terms of social life and social relations of migrants. At the beginning of the sixties, slow economic development of the country (former Yugoslavia), caused the decision of the Serbian and Montenegrin workers to go abroad. Among these countries, it was certainly and Denmark. Serbian and Montenegrin communities of migrants, although not many (about 8,000), is interesting for researchers, because in the middle of Denmark that is economically dependent, maintained their ethnic or social identity. Since the notion of a complex identity, it must be viewing within the more theoretical approach or framework. Therefore, there are two interpretations: one given by the respondents, and other researchers. In this study, on the one hand the most outstanding are moments in the life and character of the Serbian and Montenegrin man in the time immediately preceding the external migration to Denmark and on the other, new life and a different occupational mobility of respondents. Among the latter, include, for example, communication between Serbian and Montenegrin migrants with their homeland through: print media, broadcasting, internet.

  • Studies of Large Groups and Social Unconscious
    Role Analysis Workshop Belgrade, October 5th-6th 2013 Conveners Hanni Biran and Marina Mojović Organized by: Group Analytic Society-Belgrade Psycho-Social Section Consulting-Art Belgrade and Psycho-Social-Art Belgrade About the Role Analysis Workshop With birth we all arrive into some pre-existing social system with its culture, rules, as well as with images and expectations about our roles of daughters or sons, following then throughout our lives when arriving into our kindergarten, schools, and other organizations. The narratives about how our roles are being given and taken, explicitly and implicitly, formally and informally, the nature of our roles being shaped by endless interplays of forces between us as person, our groups and contexts, determine much of our self- and identity formation, the ways how we live and work, including the ways of our current role-taking. Role Analysis is one of the most significant areas in psychoanalytically oriented approach to understanding and working with organizations, institutions and society - becoming one of the most powerful tools in the ‘system psychodynamic’ or ‘socio-analytic’ consultancy work. Ever since Eric Miller, Ken Rice and Gordon Lawrence had drawn attention to issues of ‘management of self in role’ and ‘role analysis’ (Rice, 1969; Lawrence, 1979), Irving Borwick (1997) setting the basic framework of the ‘Organization Role Analysis’ (ORA) by conceptualizing the relation between systems, roles and individuals, emphasizing the role as the area, where persons and systems meet, as the place of their interface, opening so a new range of possibilities, it was then further to be developed by other distinguished authors in the field (Newton, Sievers, Long, Reed, Basalgette, Biran, Gould, Krantz).
