  • Political Economy and Team Ownership: a Collective Case Study Of
    POLITICAL ECONOMY AND TEAM OWNERSHIP: A COLLECTIVE CASE STUDY OF THE NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE AND ITS OWNERSHIP GROUPS A Dissertation by ANTHONY JEAN WEEMS Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, John N. Singer Committee Members, Natasha T. Brison Yvonna S. Lincoln Joe R. Feagin Head of Department, Melinda Sheffield-Moore August 2019 Major Subject: Kinesiology Copyright 2019 Anthony Jean Weems ABSTRACT This dissertation examined the character and social structure of team ownership groups in the National Football League (NFL) and how they shape the function of the NFL and/as a broader political economy. Drawing from bricolage as a form of research, the collective case study design (Stake, 2005) was employed to investigate the NFL and its ownership groups to better understand the political economy which shapes – and is shaped by – the NFL. Analyzing a variety of content from sources including the NFL, official team websites, news articles, legal cases, media interviews, online databases, and empirical social science, data were coded into themes and discussed in terms of NFL owners as a collective unit. As empowered through the structure of the NFL, ownership themes included the following: (a) overrepresentation of elite white men, (b) intergenerational transfer of wealth, (c) nepotism, (d) inter-institutional representation, (e) political and economic network, and (f) philanthropy. The interrelation of these themes points to the centrality of NFL ownership within a broader political and economic network that (re)produces the politics of elite-white-male dominance in the United States (see Feagin & Ducey, 2017).

  • 2012–2013 MFAH Annual Report
    The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston μ˙ annual report 2012–2013 Cover: MONIR SHAHROUDY FARMANFARMAIAN Nonagon, 2011 Mirror and reverse glass painting on plaster and wood Museum purchase funded by the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2013.97 Monir Shahroudy Farmanfarmaian uses mirror mosaics as her chief means of expression. A tradition rooted in sacred architecture in Iran, mirror mosaics are pieced together in dense arrays, capturing every nuance of light and movement. With Nonagon, Monir both adds to and boldly redefines this practice. Collaborating with traditionally trained artisans, she constructs the nine-sided relief to suggest a mystical and infinite geometry. At the same time, Monir pays homage to the primary structures of Minimalism, establishing a vital bridge between her Islamic heritage and today’s avant garde. Opposite: MATTA La Pipe (pour 120 Journées du Marquis de Sade) [The Pipe (for 120 Days by the Marquis de Sade)], 1943–45 Pastel on paper, laid on cardboard Museum purchase funded by “One Great Night in November, 2012” and the Caroline Wiess Law Accessions Endowment Fund 2012.561 This work on paper is one of four segments (two of which are now lost) that together represent one of Matta’s most ambitious works of the mid-1940s. Here, using a title that references torture in the Marquis de Sade’s writing, Matta explores aspects of suffering, violence, and the extremes of the human condition. Perhaps inspired by Picasso’s Guernica (1937), Matta’s figure raises his fist in anguish, but also as a gesture of perseverance. ANNUAL REPORT JULY 1, 2012–JUNE 30, 2013 THE MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS, HOUSTON, IS DEDICATED TO EXCELLENCE IN COLLECTING, EXHIBITING, PRESERVING, CONSERVING, AND INTERPRETING ART FOR ALL PEOPLE.
