Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This thesis provides an ethnographic account of a Women's Centre in North London and focuses upon the negotiation of a distinctive feminist community of identity at the Centre, in the context of the women's movement. This account takes issue with the usual classification of Women's Centres as one instance of a range of local manifestations of the women's movement and its implication that their organisation and structure can be inferred from an analysis of the movement. The thesis is organised in two parts. In the first part, the first chapter addresses methodological issues and argues that the thesis presents material which is not available from the sociology or history of the movement. The following three chapters consist of an analysis of feminism and the women's movement as the context of the Women's Centre- They examine its discursive, social and political dimensions, the different relations of its participants with the political cultures and social groups from which the movement emerged, and the forms and means of communication which structure its different dimensions. Contrary to the commonly held view that the small group is the basic unit of the movement, it is argued that the movement is organized on the basis of social networks. The second part of the thesis examines the feminist positions and social relations at the Women's Centre in terms of hierarchies of identity and difference. These hierarchies are demonstrated by the analysis of the spatial organization of the Centre and the social positions and life-stories of women using the Centre. The negotiation of identity is pursued in the final chapter in an examination of instrumental negotiations between the Centre and the local government. It is argued that the mobilisation of a distinctive community of identity at the Centre is achieved through the activation of cross-boundary social networks which extend across the social field of the women's movement and beyond it. The relatively permeable nature of the symbolic boundary of the Women's Centre permits both cross-boundary networks and strategic exclusions which function to accommodate different feminist positions. This accommodation of difference is contrasted with the fragmentation of the movement at a national level. 2 Contents Page ABSTRACT 2 INTRODUCTION 6 1.

Conclusion 364 Bibliography 369 5 INTRODUCTION The thesis is based on fieldwork carried out during 1977 and 1978 at a Women's Centre at Riley House in the London Borough of Camden. The Women's Centre was used by a variety of groups and the thesis aims to analyse the different relations and practices which characterised the social world of the Women's Centre and constituted a specific community of identification. The Women's Centre is generally referred to throughout the thesis as the Centre. Analysis focuses upon the processes of inclusion and exclusion through which the Centre identity was constructed from the diverse practices, projects and social relations of women participating in the different groups which comprised the Centre. These groups were constantly in process with changing social composition, varying objectives and focuses of interest. The framing of the Women's Centre as an object of study involves situating it in relation to both feminism and the women's movement and to the local community, which is defined in terms of local government and the organization of social reproduction. The Centre was established by women whose association with each other derived from, or was marked by, their involvement with the women's liberation movement, the specific form in which 'second wave feminism' emerged in Britain in the late nineteen sixties and which was formally established in 1970 (Wandor, 1972? Sebasteyn, 1979; Coote and Campbell, 1982; 6 Rowland, 1983; Wilson, 1984; Delmar, 1986). Making sense of the Centre in terms of the meanings assigned to it and derived from it by the women using the Centre therefore involves an analysis of the women's liberation movement and the more diffuse women's movement which succeeded and subsumed it. Women's Centres have been classified and discussed as 'manifestations of the women's movement' in an unproblematic way (Dalerup, 1986, p. 29). In fact there is very little literature on their internal organization and social composition, particularly before the advent of 'municipal socialism' and the introduction of women's committees into local government in the nineteen eighties (Perrigo, 1986; Tobin, 1990). References to participation in Women's Centres and indeed to 'organising a Women's Centre' (Fell, 1984) abound in feminist literature but there is a notable lack of description and analysis. In the first person testimonies of women's participation in the women's movement which constitute a significant proportion of feminist literature, Women's Centres feature only as a context of particular group meetings or events. The internal organisation of Women's Centres is not addressed as an object of study in histories of contemporary feminism or the women's movement, either: rather these focus upon the structure and processes of the small group (Coote and Campbell, 1982; Bassnett 1986; Dalerup, 1986; Delmar, 1986; Rowbotham, 1989). The relations between Women's Centres 7 and the women's movement are, therefore, not documented or analysed. The thesis investigates the relations obscured by the interpretation of Women's Centres as unproblematic 'manifestations' of the movement. While the Centre cannot be regarded as manifestation of a unitary women's movement and still less as an exemplar or microcosm of it, the social relations, cultural practices and informal power structure at the Centre were derived from the organisational forms, social networks and discourses of feminism and the women's movement which were selectively appropriated and continually re-worked at the Centre. These appropriations and transformations underpin the construction of a distinctive feminist community. For this reason, the Centre has to be analysed in the context of feminism and the women's movement, and the discussion of feminist discourses and practices moves from the general to the particular.

    THESIS POLYGAMY ON THE WEB: AN ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR AN UNCONVENTIONAL PRACTICE Submitted by Kristen Sweet-McFarling Department of Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado Summer 2014 Master’s Committee: Advisor: Lynn Kwiatkowski Cindy Griffin Barbara Hawthorne Copyright by Kristen Sweet-McFarling 2014 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT POLYGAMY ON THE WEB: AN ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR AN UNCONVENTIONAL PRACTICE This thesis is a virtual ethnographic study of a polygamy website consisting of one chat room, several discussion boards, and polygamy related information and links. The findings of this research are based on the interactions and activities of women and men on the polygamy website. The research addressed the following questions: 1) what are individuals using the website for? 2) What are website members communicating about? 3) How are individuals using the website to search for polygamous relationships? 4) Are website members forming connections and meeting people offline through the use of the website? 5) Do members of the website perceive the Internet to be affecting the contemporary practice of polygamy in the U.S.? This research focused more on the desire to create a polygamous relationship rather than established polygamous marriages and kinship networks. This study found that since the naturalization of monogamous heterosexual marriage and the nuclear family has occurred in the U.S., due to a number of historical, social, cultural, political, and economic factors, the Internet can provide a means to denaturalize these concepts and provide a space for the expression and support of counter discourses of marriage, like polygamy.

  • How to Organise a Reclaim the Night March
    How to organise a Reclaim the Night march First of all, it’s good to point out what Reclaim the Night (RTN) is. It’s traditionally a women’s march to reclaim the streets after dark, a show of resistance and strength against sexual harassment and assault. It is to make the point that women do not have the right to use public space alone, or with female friends, especially at night, without being seen as ‘fair game’ for harassment and the threat or reality of sexual violence. We should not need chaperones (though that whole Mr Darcy scene is arguably a bit cool, as is Victorian clothing, but not the values). We should not need to have a man with us at all times to protect us from other men. This is also the reason why the marches are traditionally women-only; having men there dilutes our visi- ble point. Our message has much more symbolism if we are women together. How many marches do you see through your town centre that are made up of just women? Exactly. So do think before ruling out your biggest unique selling point. Anyway, the RTN marches first started in several cities in Britain in November 1977, when the Women’s Liberation Movement (WLM) was last at its height, a period called the Second Wave. The idea for the marches was copied from co-ordinated midnight marches across West German cities earlier that same year in April 1977. The marches came to stand for women’s protest against all forms of male violence against women, but particularly sexual vio- lence.

  • The Life and Politics of David Widgery David Renton
    The Life and Politics of David Widgery David Renton David Widgery (1947-1992) was a unique figure on the British left. Better than any one else, his life expressed the radical diversity of the 1968 revolts. While many socialists could claim to have played a more decisive part in any one area of struggle - trade union, gender or sexual politics, radical journalism or anti- racism - none shared his breadth of activism. Widgery had a remarkable abili- ty to "be there," contributing to the early debates of the student, gay and femi- nist movements, writing for the first new counter-cultural, socialist and rank- and-file publications. The peaks of his activity correspond to the peaks of the movement. Just eighteen years old, Widgery was a leading part of the group that established Britain's best-known counter-cultural magazine Oz. Ten years later, he helped to found Rock Against Racism, parent to the Anti-Nazi League, and responsible for some of the largest events the left has organised in Britain. RAR was the left's last great flourish, before Margaret Thatcher became Prime Minister, and the movement entered a long period of decline, from which even now it is only beginning to awake. David Widgery was a political writer. Some of the breadth of his work can be seen in the range of the papers for which he wrote. His own anthology of his work, compiled in 1989 includes articles published in City Limits, Gay Left, INK, International Socialism, London Review of Books, Nation Review, New Internationalist, New Socialist, New Society, New Statesman, Oz, Radical America, Rank and File Teacher,Socialist Worker, Socialist Review, Street Life, Temporary Hoarding, Time Out and The Wire.' Any more complete list would also have to include his student journalism and regular columns in the British Medical Journal and the Guardian in the 1980s.

    Global Metal Music and Culture This book defines the key ideas, scholarly debates, and research activities that have contributed to the formation of the international and interdisciplinary field of Metal Studies. Drawing on insights from a wide range of disciplines including popular music, cultural studies, sociology, anthropology, philos- ophy, and ethics, this volume offers new and innovative research on metal musicology, global/local scenes studies, fandom, gender and metal identity, metal media, and commerce. Offering a wide-ranging focus on bands, scenes, periods, and sounds, contributors explore topics such as the riff-based song writing of classic heavy metal bands and their modern equivalents, and the musical-aesthetics of Grindcore, Doom and Drone metal, Death metal, and Progressive metal. They interrogate production technologies, sound engi- neering, album artwork and band promotion, logos and merchandising, t-shirt and jewelry design, and the social class and cultural identities of the fan communities that define the global metal music economy and subcul- tural scene. The volume explores how the new academic discipline of metal studies was formed, while also looking forward to the future of metal music and its relationship to metal scholarship and fandom. With an international range of contributors, this volume will appeal to scholars of popular music, cultural studies, social psychology and sociology, as well as those interested in metal communities around the world.

  • 1970S Feminist Fiction
    1 1970s Feminist Fiction Sonya Andermahr Introduction The 1970s is a period that is remembered in Britain as a byword for social and cultural crisis, characterised by territorial disintegration abroad, economic mismanagement and decline at home, and political embarrassment for the Right and Left alike, as the country faced a series of debilitating strikes, shortages and crises. However, some saw it as a chance for a new beginning; for feminists the 1970s offered an opportunity to change society for the better. Looking back on the 1970s, Marsha Rowe, the first editor of Spare Rib, founded in 1972, stated: ‘We made our own world’ (Daly 1). In the course of this chapter, I explore the world of 1970s British Feminist fiction which, while not as well-known and widespread as US feminist literature, was nevertheless dynamic and iconoclastic. There was a close and dialectical relation between politics, theory and literature: the Women’s Liberation Movement fed directly into women’s writing through consciousness-raising groups, writing workshops, conferences, reading groups, magazines, and publishing houses. In fact, the 1970s saw the creation of a new feminist counter-public sphere, arguably something that had not experienced in Britain in such a radical way since the time of the suffragettes. While the decade saw a continuation of the radical work of 1960s writers such as Doris Lessing, it also gave rise to a new sense of collective endeavour and of writing as part of a larger, shared political project in which women writers saw themselves not as isolated, exceptional figures, but as part of sisterhood ‘writing for their lives’.

I agreethat this. Dissertationmay be available forreference and photocopying,. at the discretion of the College. Richard Deakin 111 ABSTRACT Whateverperspective one takes, contradictions in the relationship between the capital and the provinces have always been evident to some extent, and the British undergroundpress of the late 1960s and early 1970s is no exception. The introductoryfirst chapter will definethe meaning of the term 'underground' in this context, and outline some of thesources used and the methodologies employed. Chapter Two will show how the British underground press developed froman alternative coterie of writers, poets, and artists - often sympathisers of the Campaign forNuclear Disarmament movement. It will also show how having developed from roots that were arguably provincial the undergroundadopted London as its base. The third chapter will take a more detailed look at the background of some London and provincial underground publications andwill attempt to see what extent the London undergroundpress portrayed the provinces, and vice-versa. In Chapter Four actual aspects of lifein urbanand rural settings, such as communes, squats, and pop festivals,will be examined in relation to the adoption of these lifestylesby the wider counterculture and how they were adapted to particular environments as part of an envisioned alternativesociety.

  • Introduction: Achievement and Its Social Life
    Introduction Achievement and Its Social Life Nicholas J. Long and Henrietta L. Moore It’s a rainy winter’s day in Atlanta, Georgia, and a weary anthropologist is heading for his fl ight. Th e subway train is lit a sickly yellow, and the fi gures in the carriage huddle into the corners of their seats, hands in their pockets and coats zipped up to the neck. It’s the kind of journey on which even a quick, friendly smile could make all the diff erence. At fi rst no one looks back. Th ey focus their eyes on their knees, the fl oor, a point somewhere just outside the window. Th en somebody meets his gaze – not exactly a reciprocation; a scowl. He turns away. Th e journey drags on. But throughout, there is one person who is ready to lock eyes with him. She takes this train every day. She’s a smiling, confi dent, attractive middle-aged woman and she’s up there, on the wall. She’s written a book – it’s about how to unlock the secrets of success and how to be ‘a winner’ every single moment of every single day. She’d love the people on the train to read it. It could help them. Th ey could unlock they potential. But, for today at least, none of the other passengers seem able to bring themselves to look at her. He changes trains. A preacher is on the platform. Th e crowd needs to be warned – they might think we know what it means to ‘achieve’ – having a great job, a great salary, a great house, a great relationship.
