The thesis investigates how these heroes' behaviour echoes a patriotic, conservative construction of the modern American as created through speeches given by George W. Bush in the wake of the events of September 11, 2001 . The thesis examines the hero in six primary sources: the war films We Were Soldiers, Behind Enemy Lines and The Great Raid and the action films Collateral Damage, Man on Fire and The Punisher. By analyzing the ideological subtext, political content, visual strategies and generic implications of the films, as well as the binary constructions of a selection of Bush speeches, and by reviewing historical representations of American male heroes on film produced in the wake of political events, the thesis concludes that the six films mobilize the USA's conservative viewpoint towards war and military action, and in concert with the speeches, contribute to an ongoing militarization of visual culture.

  • The Naturalization of “Good” Violence in Recent Films
    THE NATURALIZATION OF “GOOD” VIOLENCE IN RECENT FILMS ABOUT THE WAR ON TERROR by Alejandro Botia A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Media and Communication Middle Tennessee State University May 2017 Dr. Jane Marcellus, Chair Dr. Sanjay Asthana Dr. Robert Kalwinsky To my sons Martin, Simon and my beloved wife Carolina ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First of all, I would like to thank Middle Tennessee State University for giving me the opportunity of pursuing my postgraduate studies and experiencing again the fresh air of the academic environment. I would also like particularly to express my gratitude to Dr. Jane Marcellus, my thesis advisor and Committee Chair, whose guidance, support and encouragement were a constant source of motivation and an invaluable input for the achievement of this research. Special thanks to Dr. Sanjay Asthana and Dr. Robert Kalwinsky, the other two committee members, for their suggestions, ideas and materials that enriched the scope of this study. Last, but not least, my gratitude to the Writing Center at MTSU and all the editors (Jamie, Austin, Jane, Ellie, Stacey, Erica, Jency) who correct my grammar and made these pages more readable. iii ABSTRACT This thesis undertakes a narrative analysis of three recent films about the war on terror: Olympus Has Fallen (2013), American Sniper (2014) and London Has Fallen (2016) to study how these movies produce meaning with regard to the worldwide fight against terrorism and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Drawing on Barthes´ theory of semiotics and Foucault´s notion of Subjectification and Knowledge/power, this research explores the construction of the terrorist character and the Arab enemy in fictional narratives and how those meanings produce a body of knowledge which defines the imaginary space to think and talk about such phenomena.

  • Mehdi Semati
    Mehdi Semati ISLAMOPHOBIA, CULTURE AND RACE IN THE AGE OF EMPIRE This paper offers a genealogical sketch of the figure of the Muslim Other as it is figured in the post-Cold War popular and political imaginary. It explores why ‘culture’ has acquired a putative explanatory power in the post-Cold War (geo)politics. In addressing differentialist racism, it posits Islamophobia as an ideological response that conflates histories, politics, societies and cultures of the Middle East into a single unified and negative conception of an essentialized Islam, which is then deemed incompatible with Euro-Americaness. In this context, the category of brown, once the signifier of an exotic Other, is undergoing a transformation in conjunction with the deepening of Islamophobia, a formation that posits brown, as a strategy of identification, as alterity to the Euro- Americanness, and as terror and threat. Keywords Islamophobia; race; culture; brown; difference; differentialist racism; Muslim identity; terrorism Introduction: ‘Security-Other’ In November 2006, six Muslim imams were removed from a flight from Minneapolis to Phoenix because passengers and the flight crew had become ‘spooked’ by ‘suspicious behavior’ on the part of the imams (Saunders 2007). According to an Associate Press report, the police listed the episode as ‘Security- Other,’ although some saw it as a case of ‘flying while Muslim’ (Freed 2006). When the removed passengers later declared they would file a lawsuit against the airline and ‘John Doe passengers’ for discrimination, an amendment was promptly introduced in the Congress to shield passengers from lawsuits because such lawsuits ‘chill the flying public’s willingness to report suspicious behavior’ (Saunders 2007).
