Marusek University of Massachusetts, US Follow this and additional works at: https://ro.uow.edu.au/ltc Recommended Citation Marusek, S., Wheelchair as semiotic: space governance of the American handicapped parking space, Law Text Culture, 9, 2005.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Wheelchair as semiotic: space governance of the American handicapped parking space Abstract The wheelchair has become a stereotypical symbol of physical disability. The image may appear as a picture, as on parking signs with a blue background and a white figure sitting in a wheelchair, or in reality when one sees an actual person sitting in one. Both images are useful in characterising the governance of the handicapped parking space, a field that presents a unique case study in the interpretation and enforcement of law. The parking space is legally reserved for vehicles marked by the Blue Wheelchair which hangs as a tag from the rearview mirror or on the licence plate; but at the same time it is socially reserved for vehicles driven by a person who is dependent upon an actual wheelchair. Law enforces this space formally by ticketing and/or towing violating vehicles. Society enforces this space informally through the disciplining gaze of onlookers. Legal enforcement is based upon the presence of the Blue Wheelchair symbol as it matches the sign that towers above the reserved spot.

  • The Space of Car Parks and Shopping Centres in Australian Cities
    Jonathan Laskovsky | Monash University Elizabeth Taylor | RMIT University A Lot of Thought: The space of car parks and shopping centres in Australian cities Acknowledgement: Jonathan Laskovsky receives support through an Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship. This paper explores the rise and significance of car parking in Australian cities, focusing on suburban shopping centres. The suburban shopping centre – mall – was meant by its creator Victor Gruen to recreate the pedestrian feel of European town centres, with cars kept outside. Suburban shopping malls are thus characterised by vast seas of parking dwarfing their destination buildings. This paper argues that the relationship between car parks and their urban surroundings appears deceptively simple, but closer inspection reveals complex interactions between car use, public policy and urban landscapes. Car parks are contradictory spaces, simultaneously of fundamental importance to enabling car travel, and widely neglected in terms of both planning and of thinking. Parking tends to be forgotten as soon as it is found, yet it is a significant feature of urban landscapes. In “Rethinking a Lot” Ben-Joseph observed that we “demand convenient parking everywhere we go, and then learn not to see the vast, unsightly spaces that result.” Using Melbourne shopping centre car parks as a case study, the paper illustrates how ubiquitous parking landscapes have arisen both from the demands of rising car ownership, and from deliberate urban policy. This paper then reads car parks as having more than a simple spatial relationship. It views car parks through the lens of Foucault: as heterotopic spaces that link together the seemingly incompatible issues of safety and surveillance, hostility and convenience.

    Berlin’s Cultural East and West Division: Masochism and the Female Body Oliver Benjamin Ham A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master o f Arts in the De partment of Germanic Languages. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Professor Richard Langston Professor Alice Kuzniar Professor Peter McIsaac ©2007 Oliver Benjamin Ham ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Be rlin’s Cultural East and West Division: Masochism and the Female Body (Under the direction of Richard Langston) Else Buschheuer’s novel Ruf!Mich!An! represents an exceptional example of contemporary German literature in which the gendered body, in correla tion to division and unification of Berlin, is represented as a sexual battlefield . The female body of the main protagonist in Ruf!Mich!An!, becomes the main mediator and battle field of the divisions and tensions in Berlin between East - and West Germans. Be it the East German inability to cope with Western television or capitalism , the protagonist perceives East Germans as unable to cope with the cultural changes that have come with reunification. Her alienation and hatred culminate into guilt over her own behavior. Communication, which would open ways of coping with the alienation and hatred, has bec ome impossible. A s a st rategy for channeling this guilt , Papri ka indulges in masochism. M asochism represents pornological descriptions which displac e and channel her hatred and guilt . Masochism b ecomes a tool by which her feelings towards Eastern Germans are negated and transcribed into sex.
