  • The Electrical Transformation of the Public Sphere: Home Video, the Family, and the Limits of Privacy in the Digital Age
    THE ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE: HOME VIDEO, THE FAMILY, AND THE LIMITS OF PRIVACY IN THE DIGITAL AGE By Adam Capitanio A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY American Studies 2012 ABSTRACT THE ELECTRICAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE: HOME VIDEO, THE FAMILY, AND THE LIMITS OF PRIVACY IN THE DIGITAL AGE By Adam Capitanio One of the constituent features of the digital age has been the redrawing of the line between private and public. Millions of social media users willingly discuss intimate behavior and post private photographs and videos on the internet. Meanwhile, state and corporate bodies routinely violate individual privacy in the name of security and sophisticated marketing techniques. While these occurrences represent something new and different, they are unsurprising given the history of home and amateur media. In this dissertation, I argue that contemporary shifts in the nature of the public/private divide have historical roots in the aesthetics and style found in home movies and videos. In other words, long before Facebook and YouTube enabled users to publicly document their private lives, home movies and videos generated patterns of representation that were already shifting the unstable constitution of the “private” and the “public” spheres. Using critical theory and archival research, I demonstrate how home moviemakers represented their families and experiences in communal and liminal spaces, expanding the meaning of “home.” When video become the predominant medium for domestic usage, home mode artifacts became imbricated with television, granting them a form of phantasmagoric publicity that found fulfillment in the digital era.

  • Review of Pilot
    COMING HOME: A STUDY OF VALUES CHANGE AMONG CHINESE POSTGRADUATES AND VISITING SCHOLARS WHO ENCOUNTERED CHRISTIANITY IN THE U.K. ANDREA DEBORAH CLAIRE DICKSON, BA, MIS, MA Thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy JULY 2013 Abstract This thesis examines changes in core values held by postgraduate students and visiting scholars from China who professed belief in Christianity while studying in UK universities. It is the first study to ascertain whether changes remain after return to China. Employing a theoretical framework constructed from work by James Fowler, Charles Taylor, Yuting Wang and Fenggang Yang, it identifies both factors contributing to initial change in the UK and factors contributing to sustained change after return to China. It shows that lasting values change occurred. As a consequence, tensions were experienced at work, socially and in church. However, these were outweighed by benefits, including inner security, particularly after a distressed childhood. Benefits were also experienced in personal relationships and in belonging in a new community, the Church. This was a qualitative, interpretive study employing ethnographic interviews with nineteen people, from eleven British universities, in seven Chinese cities. It was based on the hypotheses that Christian conversion leads to change in values and that evidence for values can be found in responses to major decisions and dilemmas, in saddest and happiest memories and in relationships. Conducted against a backdrop of transnational movement of people and ideas, including a recent increase in mainland Chinese studying abroad which has led to more Chinese in British churches, it contributes new insights into both the contents of sustained Christian conversion amongst Chinese abroad who have since returned to China and factors contributing to it.

  • Electronic Surveillance in Workplaces and Their Legitimate Usage to Provide Transparency and Accountability Towards Employees
    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) Electronic surveillance in workplaces and their legitimate usage to provide transparency and accountability towards employees 1Gursimran Singh, 2Dr. Payal Bassi 1Research Scholar, 2Professor, 1 Department of Commerce and Management 1Regional Institute of Management and Technology, Mandi Gobindgarh, India Abstract: Companies used surveillance software’s, CCTV cameras to watch their employees, monitoring their e-mails or the websites content they visit. Sometimes managers used surveillance to provide protection of their companies from legal acquaintances that originates against the wrong doing behavior of their employees such as download of pornography material and provoke able e-mails or messages to other individuals and to provide protection against the inappropriate exposure of exclusive or confidential information on the internet. As the reasons of employers behind these processes can be valid, there are conflicting thoughts of the usage of this technology among the employees. This paper discusses the latest surveillance measures, technologies used by the employer, lawful disputes that can arise from surveillance as well as consequences or problems originate for the management. This paper also discusses some questions about the right of usage of internet or e-mails in the corporations for the personnel motives of the employees and to what extent their can use their right. To what extent the managers or companies lawfully monitor the workplaces or employees behavior on the internet. And about the employees expectations regarding the surveillance used in order to protect their online privacy and the legal options company have provided for them. The paper expresses the ways for further research in surveillance of employees and a more detailed reasoning in improving lawful and policy-making can be analyzed further.
