“…Afterwards, the results were compared and organised according to topics using the accepted technique of thematic analysis. Several studies have used this method in examining violence and abuse (Reich 2002, Zink et al. 2003, Woodward & Stephen 2003).…”

Filipino men's familial roles and domestic violence: implications and strategies for community-based intervention

Men's gender roles have contributed to family violence, but the ramifications of these roles in the development of community-based programmes for men have not been given much attention. A small-scale qualitative examination of the familial context of Filipino men's positions and roles, and their domestic violence experiences and attitudes was carried out using eight discussion groups, each group with seven to eight members. Verbatim tape-recorded transcripts were analysed using accepted techniques for theoretical analysis to establish emergent themes. Discussants saw themselves as being at the helm of their families. Men were knowledgeable of and took responsibility for their gender roles exerting control over the focus and direction of all their family affairs, including the gender roles of their wives/partners. This control demonstrated facets of their hegemonic masculinity such as sexual objectification and dominance. Men in this society come from a traditional position of power, dominance and privilege. They will be particularly sensitive to interventions aimed at reducing violence against women which will inquire into their private lives. In their view, such interventions were both a direct challenge to their family leadership and a basis for 'losing face'. Strategies for positive interventions include the need for male-sensitive and male-centred approaches which avoid demonising or stereotyping men.

“…Analyses of such connections have indicated competing frameworks of African-American nationalism, African-American class mobility and anxiety as ‘material force[s]’ in advertisements for 1970s blaxploitation films (Kraszewski, 2002); themes of national security, counter-terrorism and technological progress arguably masquerading as justifications for broader American exceptionalism (Sikka, 2008); a ‘semiotic square’ of ‘techtopian’, ‘green Luddite’, ‘work machine’ and ‘techspressive’ ideologies concerning technology and consumer behavior (Kozinets, 2008); and the arbitrary, and highly contextual, divergent meanings of the word ‘victim’, particularly as it applies to women and victims of domestic violence (Reich, 2002). Analyses of articulation and the Abu Ghraib torture scandal have also been undertaken (Harp and Struckman, 2010; Tétreault, 2006); broader analyses are also common (DeLuca, 1999; Pillai, 1992; Pillai and Kline, 1998).…”

Imagined commodities? Analyzing local identity and place in American community newspaper website banners

American community newspapers, as well as larger daily publications, do little to articulate a sense of local identity or place in the banners of their websites, or their newspaper names atop the web page. Instead, newspapers routinely articulate a professional identity above a local one – often omitting the name of the community entirely, and only occasionally offering a major visual expression of the community. This complicates Benedict Anderson’s sense of ‘imagined communities’, which argues that local identity is constructed through clear articulation by print media; if newspaper websites ignore local identity in their banners, then community newspapers today are imaging commodity rather than community. This qualitative analysis of 40 American community newspapers and 80 daily American newspapers divides that local articulation into four categories (absent identity, secondary identity, equal identity and visual identity) and explores implications for the academy and newspaper industry.

“…34Á35). Reich (2002) advances articulation theory as a means of rearticulating women's identities in the case of the hegemonic struggle between the terms 'women' and 'victim'. Reich argues that 'labels can be linked to personal identities and also to larger social constructs.…”
