Master's Thesis from the year 2012 in the subject Cultural Studies - European Studies, grade: none, Lund University, language: English, abstract: "Europe" is together with "the nation" and "state" one of the basic concepts around which national political debates are organised as Waever and Hansen put it. Within these debates, the term Europe takes different (often oppositional) meanings and nuances, depending on the ideological background and interests of the parties involved. The aim of this thesis is to look at how images of nation and EU are put forward on various political declarations of the two largest parties in Albania, Democratic Party and Socialist Party. Based on Fairclough's Critical Discourse Analysis, I analyse how these two parties define and negotiate the Albanian-EU relations from a national identity angle. I conclude that there is a European hegemonic discourse emerging in Albania and that relations between the country and EU are represented through metaphors of family and journey. Another conclusion deriving from the analysis is the interchangeable use of the words EU and Europe, where the economic and political union is equated with the historical and geographical name of the continent.

Diploma Thesis from the year 2014 in the subject Law - European and International Law, Intellectual Properties, grade: Pending, University of Lincoln, course: Global Justice, language: English, abstract: The aim of this study is to identify the reasons behind Anglican voters' association with the Conservative Party. In the first section, the study will assess the relevant data taken from 'Voting and Values in Britain: Does religion count?' by researchers at Theos Think Tank. The research supports the assumption that Anglicans are more likely to vote Conservative than any other political party. Having distinguished the facts, the second section of the study will establish the reasoning behind this relationship. Here, the thesis will draw upon a number of sources in order to explain the association. It was concluded that Anglican voters' association with the Conservative Party is largely a response to the historical relationship between the two. It was further concluded that much of the reasoning behind Anglican voters' preference may be down to their values regarding key moral issues. Areas for further research are also suggested within this study.

Examining cultural conflict and communication between social groups and classes in industrial societies, he identifies the way individuals strive to create memories in order to make sense of their lives, and evaluates the impact of the fieldwork experience on the consciousness of the researcher. By recovering the value of the story-telling experience, Portelli's work makes delightful reading for the specialist and non-specialist alike.

The events of 9/11 had a profound impact on American society, but they had an even more lasting effect on Muslims living in the United States. Once practically invisible, they suddenly found themselves overexposed. By describing how Islam in America began as a strange cultural object and is gradually sinking into familiarity, Finding Mecca in America illuminates the growing relationship between Islam and American culture as Muslims find a homeland in America. Rich in ethnographic detail, the book is an up-close account of how Islam takes its American shape. In this book, Mucahit Bilici traces American Muslims’ progress from outsiders to natives and from immigrants to citizens. Drawing on the philosophies of Simmel and Heidegger, Bilici develops a novel sociological approach and offers insights into the civil rights activities of Muslim Americans, their increasing efforts at interfaith dialogue, and the recent phenomenon of Muslim ethnic comedy. Theoretically sophisticated, Finding Mecca in America is both a portrait of American Islam and a groundbreaking study of what it means to feel at home.

"A cogent and incisive exploration of many of the key debates at the heart of postcolonial cultural studies, with a timely focus on the 'underside' of the much-hyped process of globalisation" David Morley, Professor of Communications, Goldsmiths College, UK. "Rawaswami Harindranath's lively book provides us with a comprehensive and engaging overview of the views from the margins in the global debate about globalisation and culture. Written with admirable clarity, this book fills in the blind spots of much Western theorising of the 'underside' of globalisation and makes a forceful argument for a truly critical and non-Eurocentric cosmopolitanism." Professor Ien Ang, ARC Professorial Fellow, University of Western Sydney This book explores significant aspects of the cultural and social impact of globalization on the developing world by examining intellectual contributions and cultural expression in Latin America, Africa, and South and South East Asia. How do we understand and conceptualize the 'underside' of globalization? How can voices from the margins challenge dominant discourses? In what ways do 'culture wars' contribute to the politics of nationalism, indigeneity, and 'race'? The book surveys key debates on the politics of representation and cultural difference, paying particular attention to issues such as subalternity, cultural nationalism, third cinema, multiculturalism, and indigenous communities. It offers an original synthesis of ideas on these topics, and traces the lines of connection between national cultural and political projects during anti-colonial struggles and more contemporary forms of national and transnational cinema and television. Harindranath invites us to consider non-metropolitan cultural forms in the context of contemporary issues relating to the politics of difference. Perspectives on Global Culture is important reading for students and researchers in media and cultural studies and sociology, as well as for those interested in debates on 'race' and ethnicity.
