Social Justice Theatre and the Impact on Theatre Artists

The literature reviewed in this study examines the impact attending subversive theatre has on audience members, its aim is to inspire empathy as a tool to create progressive social change. This study expands upon those findings, but differs by taking a closer look at the ways in which participating in social justice theatre has an impact on those who engage in it. This study sought theatre artists currently active in social justice theatre to participate in a qualitative research project. Eight participants were selected and interviewed individually over zoom. All zoom interviews were transcribed. The researcher took handwritten notes, with no identifying details. Thematic analysis was used to process data gathered during the study. The researcher identified six major themes: White Comfort vs. Brown and Black Discomfort, The Culture of White Supremacy, Empathy, The Relationship Between the Performance and Audience, Politics, and Risks. Key findings include the participants’ embodiment of empathy and love for people who exist within oppressive systems, and their resilience to adversity. Future research might study the effectiveness of social justice theatre as a social work tool for intervention within oppressed populations

Taken From the Net

This work pursues an aspect of the narrative of the taming of nature, nature as resource and nature for sport and leisure, but attempts to utilise different methodologies and explores different forms. This exhibited work capitalizes on the need of people to photographically record themselves with their ‘prey’ and one could argue the masculine urge to make a permanent record of supremacy over the natural world. Where such images in the past were stored locally in printed form the internet now provides a point of sharing and dissemination through social networks and through wide ranging websites. As if to parallel my wonder at the vastness and sublime characteristics of oceans and lakes and what lies within, I now find that the internet too is such a space for the imaginatio

Radikalisierung und Deradikalisierung im transnationalen islamistischen Terrorismus:Entstehungsbedingungen und Bewältigungsstrategien

Der transnationale islamistische Terrorismus ist mit dem 11. September 2001 nicht neu erfunden worden. Dennoch teilt dieses symbolträchtige Datum die Geschichte des Terrorismus in ein Vorher und ein Nachher. Um die übergreifende Frage danach beantworten zu können, warum es den transnationalen islamistischen Terrorismus überhaupt gibt, geht es dieser Arbeit darum, die ideologische Funktionsweise der diesem Terrorismus zugrunde liegenden Radikalisierung zu erklären. Denn in der Radikalisierung liegt die Legitimierung des Einsatzes von Gewalt zur Verfolgung politischer Interessen. Somit liefert die Kombination aus einem umfassenden theoretisch-konzeptionellen Zugang und die Analyse konkreter Quellen von Radikalisierung eine verallgemeinerungsfähige Erklärungsperspektive zum Phänomen des transnationalen islamistischen Terrorismus. Aufbauend darauf fragt die Arbeit weiter, ob eine Umkehrung dieses Prozesses der Radikalisierung möglich ist und ob eine solche Deradikalisierung einen Beitrag zur Überwindung des Terrorismus leisten kann. <br/
