MUSIC THERAPY IN FIGHTING CERTAIN BEHAVIOUR DISORDERS

MUSIC THERAPY IN FIGHTING CERTAIN BEHAVIOUR DISORDERS

Author(s): Nelida Nedelcuţ,Vlad Tudor Eniu / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2012

Music therapy is a science which studies the complex sound – the human being, which uses movement, sound and music in order to open channels of communication for the human being and thus to obtain therapeutic and psycho-prophylactic effects. In fighting behaviour disorders, music therapy can cause positive effects by relaxing tension, reducing anxiety, exteriorizing emotions, facilitating the relationship with the environment. Expressing oneself through music stimulates the exteriorizing of human feelings in a non-verbal language involving interaction and communication by means of various techniques. This has been proved by two experiments (the Tour Daburya School in Nazareth-Israel and the Special School in Alba Iulia-Romania), where interdisciplinary teams have improved behaviour disorders of young students by applying methods of musical therapy. In all forms of music therapy, be they educational, medical or psycho-therapeutic, the purpose is to help the subject overcome anxiety or aggressiveness which impede interrelations.

Typically Female Features in Hungarian Shopping Tourism

Author(s): Gábor Michalkó,Tamara Rátz / Language(s): English Issue: 1-2/2006

Although shopping has been long acknowledged as a major tourist activity, the extent and characteristics of shopping tourism have only recently become the subject of academic research and discussion. As a contribution to this field of knowledge, the paper presents the characteristics of shopping tourism in Hungary, and discusses the typically female features of outbound Hungarian shopping tourism. The research is based on a survey of 2473 Hungarian tourists carried out in 2005. As the findings of the study indicate, while female respondents were altogether more likely to be involved in tourist shopping than male travellers, no significant difference was experienced between the genders concerning the share of shopping expenses compared to their total travel budget. In their shopping behaviour, women were typically affected by price levels, and they proved to be both more selfish and more altruistic than men by purchasing more products for themselves and for their family members. The most significant differences between men and women were found in their product preferences as female tourists were more likely to purchase typically feminine goods such as clothes, shoes, bags and accessories, in the timing of shopping activities while abroad, and in the information sources used by tourists, since interpersonal influences such as friends’, guides’ and fellow travellers’ recommendations played a higher role in female travellers’ decisions.

The Internal Contradictions of Feminism

The Internal Contradictions of Feminism

Author(s): Belinda Brown / Language(s): English Issue: 03/2015

One of the most striking things about feminism is the extent to which a body of beliefs based on notions of equality has produced new inequalities without hardly anyone seeming to notice. I particularly have in mind the inequalities between a rich, privileged female elite and the majority of other women as well as the growing inequalities between men. These are partly the consequence of changes in the employment market produced by a growing pool of female labour prepared to work for a lower wage because their priorities lie elsewhere.

ГЕНДЕРНЫЙ АСПЕКТ РЕЧЕВОЙ МАСКИ: ПОСТАНОВКА ПРОБЛЕМЫ И ПОИСК ОРИЕНТИРОВ

Author(s): Marina Vladimirovna Shpilman / Language(s): Russian Issue: 3/2014

Currently, gender studies are extremely important and are conducted in three main areas: socio-and psycholinguistic, lingvo culturological, discursive and communicative. The purpose of the article – to consider the concepts of gender and gender stereotypes of communication strategy «Speech Mask»: to reveal the conditions of success of the strategy in depends on the destination factor in cases of full or partial correspondence between speech mask and gender stereotypes. Thus, during the work it was found that, on the one hand, the mask must be based on gender stereotypes of behavior and speech, on the other, – a wholly-compliance with these stereotypes, as well as a complete mismatch them, makes speech and behavioral mask unconvincing and leads to failure strategy. At the same time, small deviations from the stereotypes normally perceived by the addressee and promote the success of communication strategies.

Zovem se mazohizam: Vanda i Leopold fon Zaher-Mazoh - ime, žena, žanr

Zovem se mazohizam: Vanda i Leopold fon Zaher-Mazoh - ime, žena, žanr

Author(s): Biljana Andonovska / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

This paper deals with the autobiography of Wanda von Sacher-Masoch, notorious masochistic heroine, who spent ten years in a marriage with Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, the “father of literary masochism”. The necessary context for this research is provided by Krat -Ebing’s medico-forensic study Psychopathia sexualis, Leopold von Sacher-Masoch’s masochistic novel Venus in Furs, Deleuze’s “gynocentric” (re)vision of masochism and Foucault’s analyses of the discursive history of sexuality in western “confessing” societies. h e specii c issues of proper name, truth, privacy and identity involved, in the case of Wanda von Sacher-Masoch’s Confessions are related to the characteristic features of the specii cally women’s experience of writing. Thus, I analyse her “confessional pseudonym” as a double i ction that suggests the ambivalence of establishing female identity at the crossroads of literary i ction and i ction of the social institution of marriage. (Inter)textual strategies of Wanda von Sacher-Masoch’s autobiography are organized as a female counterpoint to Sacher-Masoch’s masochistic lifestyle and narrative, but also as a counterpoint to her own previous “masochistic authorship” under the pseudonym of the heroine of Sacher-Masoch’s Venus in Furs - Wanda von Dunajew. In her late autobiographical Confessions Wanda von Sacher-Masoch tells the masochistic story not as a i ction but as a pressure of i ction on the real life and demystifies male masochistic fantasy as oppressive and restrictive. Different status and value of authorship and statements in the autobiography as a documentary genre allows Wanda von Sacher-Masoch to strengthen privacy and daily life as political spheres, which sets her text in a dynamic relationship with the social environment and feminist movement of the time. Yet, for the same reasons her anti-masochistic autobiographical work may be perceived as still masochistic, based on the conservative, truth-seeking, mimetic genre that conforms to the relational dei nition of woman’s identity.

Koreni lavirinta: piksel orgije i rekonstituisanje ljudskog lica

Author(s): Nikolina Nedeljkov / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2011

Reading Jef Noon’s and Stewart Home’s novels as manifestations of postfuturist writing is here presented in the form of a critique of the world of commoditized emotionality, vulgarized sexuality, afflicted playfulness, and bewildering spirituality. The analysis outlines a vision of writing and activism of singularized humans, galvanized by and fertilizing solidarity and creation. h e term postfuture symbolizes oscillations between melancholy and hope at the intersection of time axes. jan jagodzinski’s ideas from Youth Fantasies: The Perverse Landscape of the Media (2004) are deployed to elucidate cultural and emotional dynamism in the novels, questioning the levels/kinds of reality and the notion of alterity. Additionally, the analysis is contextualized within McKenzie Wark’s Gamer h eory (2007), problematizing living under the spectacle and questioning boundaries of freedom. Depersonalization and dehumanization in a proi t-based, media-saturated mass culture is thematized through the lenses of Jean Baudrillard’s America (1988), while Felix Guattari’s h e h ree Ecologies (1999) provides the context for rethinking individuality and communality. Svetlana Boym’s thought provides guidelines for a vision of rethinking subjectivity. The work focuses on the potential of cultural constructivness as a basis for remixing reading-writing tactics and cultural reality.

Kiborg - nemoguća identifikacija: Dona Haravej sa Žakom Ransijerom

Kiborg - nemoguća identifikacija: Dona Haravej sa Žakom Ransijerom

Author(s): Ivan Milenković / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

This paper is about the intersecting points of two theoretical models with dif erent origins: Ranciere’s model of dif erentiation of politics and police, and Donna Haraway’s conceptualization of cyborgs. Both models assume Ranciere’s concept of “impossible identification”, that is, the coupling of heterogeneous structures, or paradox. “Impossible identifications” are a threat to every existing order that relies on identity of form and content, natural and normative aspect, that is to say on the possibility of an identification corresponding to the police procedures. A cyborg is an aberration, the logic that dei nes police procedure cannot identify it with anything known or recognizable and therefore the concept of cyborg opens up the sphere of politics

Nacionalna zajednica, rod i popularna reprezentacija: teorijski okviri

Nacionalna zajednica, rod i popularna reprezentacija: teorijski okviri

Author(s): Marija Grujić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

The paper briel y outlines some of the most crucial questions of representation and studies of nationalism and gender representations. Primarily, it reassesses the debate on what kind of cultural production participates in the nation-building projects. Michael Billig and Tim Edensor revisited the question of signifiers of the nation, and pointed out that studies of nationalism should not be restricted only to its most violent and most extreme manifestations. In their view, national projects operate also through, what Billig calls, banal nationalism, while being reproduced through everyday practices, entertainment and popular culture. Edensor acknowledges Billig’s concept of banal nationalism, and especially criticizes some of the most influential theoreticians of nationalism for neglecting the fact that nationalist production of culture is not connected only with elitist and “high” culture, but also with popular culture, entertainment and everyday practices. Subsequently, paper discusses the inter-reactions between the national communities and representation of women as signifiers of the nation. Gender representations, and especially representations of women, are included in nationalist projects in a controversial way, often instrumentalized as bearers of “national honour”. Very often, it is possible to observe the representations of women in popular culture and various entertaining contents as signifiers of subtle messages of banal nationalism.

Ispitivanje mogućnosti univerzalističkog oblika uključivanja s one strane evropskog kulturnog hegemonizma

Ispitivanje mogućnosti univerzalističkog oblika uključivanja s one strane evropskog kulturnog hegemonizma

Author(s): Katerina Kolozova / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2011

The critique of universalism as a form of domination and subjugation of the variety of possible subject positions (identity configurations) that has been central to the contemporary cultural theory represents a form of methodological and ideological self-normalization. I will argue that the cancelling of the possibility of rethinking universalism in some radically novel way produces the perpetual instance of auto-cancelling of the possibility for radical innovativness of the cultural-political theory and activism today. I am speaking in particular of those forms of theory and activism which deal more closely with the issues of integration of the cultural/ethnic, gendered, sexual and migrant minorities in the dominant society forms in Europe. We shall tackle the question of European cultural hegemony, its production of (Balkan) Otherness and the possibility of political universalism within Europe which would be beyond the logic of Euro-centrism or any other form of centrism.

Ginekonomije ili obnovljeni diskurs o „polnoj razlici“

Author(s): Sanja Milutinović Bojanić / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

What are gyneconomies and what motivates them? How do they manifest themselves and why? Are they only about woman/female/feminine, or can we speak about female libidinal economies that together with male ones participate in continued exchange in the life of a man? Remembering the discourse on sexual dif erences, the sexual dif erence is interpreted as complementary to gender studies in order to avoid exclusionary values of essentialism and constructivism

Politike sećanja, feminizam i solidarnost nakon sukoba u bivšoj Jugoslaviji

Politike sećanja, feminizam i solidarnost nakon sukoba u bivšoj Jugoslaviji

Author(s): Deana Jovanović / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

In this article I point to idea of solidarity in feminist accounts of facing the past projects after the conflicts in the former Yugoslavia. While I indicate that solidarity plays an important stance in conceptualizing the notion of moral responsibility and feminism, I suggest that feminist approaches to facing the past need to reconsider the notion of Otherness, constructed within categories of gender. h is aspect has been neglected in feminist accounts of facing the past. I illustrate the differences between women through an analysis of different memory narratives of women in Serbia who were in particular ways connected with the conflicts. In the conclusion I posit that complexities, as well as a dialogue between dif erent Others within the same collective and category of gender need to be included while theorizing solidarity in the context of facing the past, in order to confront various (political) paradigms of exclusion in Serbia.

Između „logičkog” i „istorijskog” argumenta: da li Hobsov suveren može biti žena?

Između „logičkog” i „istorijskog” argumenta: da li Hobsov suveren može biti žena?

Author(s): Marko Simendić / Language(s): English Issue: 15/2011

The paper examines the possibility of a woman being the sovereign in Thomas Hobbes’s political theory. Particularly, it is discussed whether, in Hobbes’s view, 1) a woman can become a Hobbesian sovereign, and 2) whether she can make a good sovereign. Although Hobbes’s answer to the second question is positive, his endorsement of custom as means of establishing the heir to the throne favours male over female heirs. Therefore, this question reveals a tension between Hobbes’s “logical” argument about the natural equality of men and women and his “historical” argument about the role of a (discriminatory) custom.

„Muškarci sa ženskim osobinama”: o problemu maskuliniteta na početku dvadesetog veka u Srbiji

„Muškarci sa ženskim osobinama”: o problemu maskuliniteta na početku dvadesetog veka u Srbiji

Author(s): Milan Miljković / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 15/2011

Delo an important essay on the issue of “men with feminine traits”. According to Sreten Adžić’s implicit explanations, the phrase “men with feminine traits” could be understood as a broad concept that includes both homosexuals and heterosexuals. Following contemporary scientific research data of Magnus Hirschfeld, Karl H. Ulrich and Jean-Marie Charcot, Sreten Adžić argues that the phenomenon of feminine or feminized men is an abnormal biological aberration that could be adequately treated at the early stage of child’s development, by employing dif erent psychological and sociological approaches. Although he believes that femininity in men represents an abnormality, Adžić offers a balanced approach to this issue, one which is not altogether discriminating but represents a liberal view on homosexuality and sexuality in general. Having in mind that this issue was not widely discussed within the Serbian pedagogical or professional journals, due to the wider patriarchal national context, the author argues that Sreten Adžić’s essay represents a very significant text that uses various narrative voices in order to subtly integrate very open-minded and potentially subversive discourse on homosexuality. On the other hand, the author recognizes that Sreten Adžić holds the traditional point of view, as well as that he praises and affirms values of masculinity and virile male identity.

Care Economy and Current Crises: Consequences and Costs for Ukraine

Author(s): Alissa Tolstokorova / Language(s): English Issue: 02/2010

This paper discusses ‘migration myths, metaphors and mantras’, analyzing them in the context of Ukrainian international labor migration, the current economic crisis in Ukraine in terms of its impact on migration flows and, respectively, its consequences for care provision in the country in view of increasing out-migration of females as traditionally principle carers in the family. It attempts to answer the questions: Did the economic downturn affect migration intensity and patterns? What were the unpredicted (unexpected) implications of the economic crises for migration flows? How were migrants themselves and their families left behind at home affected and what ‘anti-crises’ strategies did they develop in response to challenges of their precarious position on the labor markets in the face of the global meltdown?

Gender mainstreaming ar lyči   dėmens integravimo strategija?

Gender mainstreaming ar lyči dėmens integravimo strategija?

Author(s): Alina Žvinklienė / Language(s): Lithuanian Issue: 02/2004

The article is devoted to encourage a scientific discussion about using the both terms lytis -sex and gender in Lithuanian academic language or at least to pay more attention to that issue. A present translation of both terms into only lytis-sex often leads up to misrepresenting the meanings of the original terms. It is argued that distinction between both terms lytis -sex and gender in women’s and gender studies, and attention to the history of the term gender helps the most adequate in meaning translation of English political and scientific phraseology into Lithuanian language. Gender mainstreaming as a case study of the problems of the translation into Lithuanian language is presented.

Identitetni bankroti

Identitetni bankroti

Author(s): Venita Popović / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 13/2011

Žensko tijelo oduvijek je bilo, a tomu se baš i ne nazire konac, tajanstveno i zavodljivo poprište demonstriranja moći. Bilo onog otrovnog retradiranog/ retardiranog statusa namijenjenog ženi, bilo pak, onog egzaltiranog tretmana žene kao prvoklasne neoliberalne robe. Zapravo, među tim čvornovatim kracima maskulinog i mizoginog koje nastoji obuhvatiti cjelovito žensko, operiraju rodno-spolni korelativi, kako socijalni tako i intimni. I kao takvi defiliraju trjumfalno poviješć u i nasljeđem identitetnih strategija i taktika.

Postfeministička knotacija D&V J-inga je zahvaćena i razmotrena na primeru digitalnog V(ideo)J-inga i telesnog transformansa umetnika Nenada Rackovića, in flagranti - za vreme trajanja elektronskog (tehno) seta u klubu/ diskoteci. Osim u Rackovićevom video j-ingu, digitalna slika žene analizirana je i u Rackovićevom ateljeu, čije je unutrašnje površine umetnik prekrio različitim (digitalno) štampanim materijalom. Ponuđeni koncepti afirmativnog prikaza žene u Rackovićevom radu, date su referišući se na savremene feminističke teorije interpretacije Julie Kristeve, Donne Haraway, Rosi Braidotti, Sadie Plant, Marine Gržinić i Branke Arsić.

Subverzivna literarizacija postojanja ili...

Author(s): Merima Omeragić / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 13/2011

Subverzivno pismo se ispostavlja kao fikcija i simbolika isprepletena s teorijama koje imaju za cilj oblikovanje tijela teksta kao pluraliteta cjeline u svrhu kritike dominirajućih diskursa. Kršenjem Zakona i jednog (muškog) principa se afirmira kulturni otpor koji osporava vladajuće diskurse i potresa teoriju njenim terminima stvorenim u jeziku putem novih načina izražavanja. Diskurs kao prozivod ideologije je u službi borbe radi ostvarenja strateških ciljeva. Kada prekorači granice prihvatljivog govora (J. Butler) logofalocentrizma, Drugost izravno napada na predrasude i stavove dekonstruktivnom pričom o marginalnosti i razlici čime se pozicionira novi subjekt ostvaren u jeziku. Nasuprot falocentričnom jeziku stoji jezik ženskog iskustva, naslonjen na iskustvo tijela, te na psihoanalitičko iskustvo, u funkciji je postmodernističkog ispitivanja i istraživanja svijeta i društva. Za razliku od jezika koji je osnova komunikacije i na taj način približen je pojmu prapisma, a pisanje je konstituisano kao sistem koji izaziva diseminaciju značenja (Popović, 2007: 533).

The author considers the problems of the Russian conservatism heritage of 19-20 centuries research in modern Russia. The article pays attention to the numerous cases of biased and inadequate interpretation of Russian conservative public opinion by modern researchers and publishers. On the author’s opinion, such lack of professionalism and intentional falsifications has no excuse.
