Recognition and misrecognition have been theorized as key concepts for social justice. Misrecognition involves being disrespected or labelled in ways which do not accord with a person's self-identify. Racism can be understood as a specific form of misrecognition but little research has explored this form or drawn on notions of misrecognition in the discursive psychological study of racism. Our study addresses this gap by drawing on discursive psychology and conversation analysis to examine reports of racial encounters in public spaces, where misrecognition of the targets' nationality is invoked. We demonstrate that instances of misrecognition are judged as racism through the selection and use of categories and/or category-sensitive predicates that exclude the target of them from (national) category membership to which they claim entitlement. People reporting racialized encounters and those responding to them treat the description and evaluation of such incidents sensitively, orienting to the delicacy of alleging racism. In this article, we enhance theoretical understandings of misrecognition by showing how it is constructed interactionally and demonstrate the value of notions of recognition and misrecognition for the study of racism.I was lost in Cheltenham and I couldn't figure out where I was going, and I clearly looked lost because this woman, probably in her 40s, she stopped and asked me really slowly whether I was OK and put her thumbs up. I told her the place I was looking for. She looked surprised and told me that I spoke really good English. I was like "I am English" and she was like "Oh, I thought you were foreign because of the scarf on your head." She wasn't rude, but she just assumed I wasn't English because of the hijab.-'Katherine' (Amer, 2020, p. 539).I think that's quite hurtful because you know, we're all born and bred in this country; we're as British as the person standing at passport control at Heathrow Airport is, you know? And it's, it's unfair, it's a form of institutional racism or discrimination. -Male, 30s, youth worker (Blackwood, Hopkins, & Reicher, 2013b, p. 247).Recognition relates to a person's sense of who they are, having that identity approved by others, and being treated in terms they recognize. It conveys care and respect. The need, or even demand, for recognition is of great significance in our contemporary transglobal, multicultural world (Honneth, 1996;Taylor, 1992). This is because recognition is related to social justice which, for Honneth (2004, p. 358), is constitutedThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
Architecture students have been reported to experience significant stress, yet little has been researched. This study aims to examine how architecture students experience and cope with stress. Twelve participants studying Architecture at bachelors and masters levels took part in individual interviews. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analysed using thematic analysis. Three over-arching themes emerged: sources of stress in architecture studies, effects of stress and coping with stress. Participants reported of experiencing stress due to heavy and constant workloads, accepting the culture of working hard, subjective aesthetics, tutors and their critique. Stress experiences differed for year 1 and year 3 undergraduates. Students reported feelings of demotivation as a result. Many participants reported time management and making use of the supportive network of tutors and peers as coping strategies. Some participants acknowledged that things get better with time and the reward from producing a piece of work helped them to restore their motivation.
Smart interference management has been receiving attention to improve network throughput. Successive interference cancellation (SIC) is one of the promising techniques, which allows multiple concurrent transmissions from different transmitters to the same receiver. We study the scheduling issue with SIC in dense small cells. This paper proposes a novel scheduling framework, which facilitates us to develop practical algorithms to find the solution.
This chapter outlines a discursive psychological (DP) approach to authentic identities. DP is the study of how and for what people manage psychological issues such as category membership, identity and authenticity within sequences of interaction. It assumes that discourse (claims, descriptions, accounts) is constructed and constructive, action-oriented, and produced in and for the local context. A DP approach is thus not concerned with who a person 'really is', but how the authenticity of an identity is worked up and what this achieves. We illustrate this approach by (re)analysing extracts drawn from published studies of youth subcultures, football fans, online discussion forums and support groups. We identify common discursive strategies, such as drawing contrasts with non-genuine members and ascribing the 'right' (or wrong) motives or attributes to self, and show how they are used to claim (or reject) the authenticity of various identities. We explain that such claims are 'recipient designed': they require ratification by the interlocutor. They are also 'action-oriented' in that they attend to members' concerns such as interactional and inferential issues. We conclude by summarising DP's potential contribution to understanding authentic identities.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
