Reactions to the Stigmata of Inner City Living
This paper discusses the problem of living in a stigmatized inner city community. The reactions of residents are categorized into Four Moral Careers , and implications for the community of each career are discussed. Major attention is focused upon the activist career which aims to overcome the stigma of the community. The activists are discussed and described through the use df materials from intensive interviews of local community leaders who have tried to cope with the stigma of the area. Some suggested implications are made for the application of the ideas presented herein to urban research in general and the provision of social services in the context of stigmatized inner city communities
Italian and Italian American Identity: A Visual Approach
This essay is a brief exploration of the related concepts of Italian Ethnicity and Italian Ethnic Identity via a Visual Sociological study of two geographically different venues â Italian American neighbourhoods in the United States and neighbourhoods in Rome, Italy. By studying the Vernacular Landscape (Jackson, 1984) via the methods of Visual Sociology (Grady, 1996 and Harper, 1988, Rieger, 1996), and the theoretical perspectives of Urbanization of Capital (Harvey, 1989) and Spatial Semeiotics (Gottdiener, 1994) the question: âWhat does it mean for mean for a place of a space to âLook Italianâ?â is addressed. For data, the discourse draws from my extensive collection of visual studies in both the United States and Italy of the âPublic Realmsâ, or spaces accessible to all (Lofland, 1998 ). Here are featured my observations and photographic research on the âNew Immigrants to Romeâ

Journalisten und ihre "Experten"
In der Wirtschaftsberichterstattung werden dem Leser in verschiedenster Form eine Vielzahl von Experten prÀsentiert. So kommentieren z.B. Unternehmensberater die aktuelle Wirtschaftspolitik, Aktienanalysten lassen sich in Geschichten zu Unternehmen zitieren, oder Mitarbeiter von Verbraucherschutzorganisationen geben RatschlÀge zu Rente und Vorsorge. Doch was macht diese Personen aus; wer sind sie? Und warum kommen ausgerechnet sie zur Sprache und nicht jemand anderes?
In dieser Arbeit sollte das Zusammenspiel von Wirtschaftsredakteuren und Experten nĂ€her beleuchtet werden. Im ersten Teil wurde versucht, mithilfe von Weischenbergs Zwiebelmodell verschiedene EinflussgröĂen auf journalistisches Handeln, die fĂŒr die ErklĂ€rung der Journalisten-Experten-Beziehung brauchbar erschienen, aufzuzeigen. In der anschlieĂenden empirischen Untersuchung wurden Leitfadeninterviews mit Wirtschaftsredakteuren aus verschiedenen Tageszeitungen und Magazinen gefĂŒhrt. Im Ergebnis liefert die Arbeit u.a. zu folgenden Fragen erste Erkenntnisse: Warum arbeiten Wirtschaftsjournalisten mit Experten zusammen? Welches sind die Kriterien, entlang derer Wirtschaftsjournalisten Expertentum definieren? Wie recherchieren Wirtschaftsjournalisten als Experten infrage kommende Personen? Nach welchen Kriterien wĂ€hlen die Wirtschaftsjournalisten final aus den recherchierten Personen Experten fĂŒr die Zwecke ihrer Berichterstattung aus? Wie findet eine Zusammenarbeit von Experte und Wirtschaftsjournalist Ausdruck in der Berichterstattung
