Contrapunteos de Lydia Cabrera
No full textEven today in the history of Cuban anthropology, little attention is paid to the writer and anthropologist Lydia Cabrera, who has only recently begun to be part of the list of intellectuals in official Cuban culture. However, because of her work and life trajectory, Cabrera can be considered the modern founder of studies on Afro-Cuban religions.
The main purpose of this text is to analyse Lydia Cabrera’s ethnographic work based on the idea that there was a ‘counterpoint’, a dialogue, a metaphorical game, between the liminal identity of the author herself – manifested in a racial, cultural, gender, social and political sense – and her interest and dedication to the contribution of slaves and the population of African origin to the history, culture and, ultimately, the identity of their Cuban homeland.Todavía hoy en la historia de la antropología cubana se presta poca atención a la escritora y antropóloga Lydia Cabrera, quien solo muy recientemente ha empezado a formar parte de la nómina intelectual de la cultura cubana oficial. Sin embargo, en función de su obra y trayectoria vital puede considerarse a Cabrera como la fundadora moderna de los estudios sobre las religiones afrocubanas.
El objeto central de este texto es analizar el trabajo etnográfico de Lydia Cabrera a partir de la idea de que existe un contrapunteo, un diálogo, un juego metafórico, entre la identidad liminar de la propia autora -manifiesta en un sentido racial, cultural, de género, social y político- y su interés y dedicación a la aportación de los esclavos y la población de origen africano a la historia, a la cultura y, en última instancia, a la identidad misma de su patria cubana
Landsat-based multitemporal glacier inventory data of over four decades (1977-2019) for Ladakh region
No full textThis dataset contains Landsat based multitemporal glacier inventories of the four Upper Indus sub-basins (Shayok, Suru, Leh and Zanskar) and three internal drainage basins (Tsokar, Tsomoriri and Pangong) around the Ladakh region for 1977, 1993, 2009 and 2019. The inventory includes all the glaciers (2257) of the region larger than 0.5 km2, covering an area of ~7923 ±106 km2 (equivalent to ~90% of the total glacierised area in the region). The glacier area ranges between 0.5 to 862 km2, most of which belong to the smallest size category (0.5-1 km2). More than 70% of the glaciers are north-facing (NW-N-NE) and concentrated in higher elevation zones between 5000 and 6000m a.s.l. The dataset is a product of a semi-automated approach involving a band ratio approach, manual corrections and quality check
Regional and Industry Cycles in Australasia: Implications for a Common Currency
No full textIf two countries experience similar cycles, loss in monetary sovereignty following currency union may not be severe. Analysis of cyclical similarity is frequently carried out at the overall industry level, then interpreted with reference to regional industrial structures. By contrast, this paper explicitly incorporates regional industry structure into an examination of Australasian cycles. Since 1991, NZ and Australasian cycles have been highly correlated, but there is little evidence that the NZ cycle has been "caused" by Australian regional or industry cycles. We test whether the NZDAUD exchange rate has insulated NZ from Australian shocks, but find it has not played a major buffering role in response to Australian industry shocks (including mining shocks). Instead, the strongest impacts on the NZDAUD stem from the NZ cycle. An important loss of monetary sovereignty under currency union may therefore arise in response to NZ-specific shocks.
Intra & Inter-Regional Industry Shocks: A New Metric with an Application to Australasian Currency Union
No full textWe place regional industry structures at centre stage in currency union analysis, decomposing differences between regional and aggregate cycles into 'industry structure' and 'industry cycle' effects. The industry structure effect indicates whether a region's industry structure causes its cycle to deviate from the aggregate; the industry cycle effect indicates the importance of region-specific shocks in causing a deviation between cycles. We apply the methodology to Australasia. One region, ACT, has a material industry structure effect arising from its heavy central government concentration. No other region has a material industry structure effect; their cycles differ from the aggregate due to region-specific shocks.
Persepective, power, potential: An assessment study of nast-accredited historically black college & university theatre programs
No full textTheatre is an academic discipline within American higher education that affords students and aspiring artists the opportunity to cultivate an understanding of theatrical performance, practices, methodologies, artists, practitioners, and scholars. More precisely, graduate theatre programs further this notion by providing more rigorous, focused studies that assist students with understanding their chosen field of concentration and cultivating their skills as scholars, actors, directors, designers, and administrators. However, these advanced level opportunities are not present at any Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), as graduate theatre programs only exist at Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs). For that reason, this dissertation, Perspective, Power, Potential: An Assessment Study of NAST-Accredited Historically Black College and University Theatre Programs, assesses the National Association of Schools of Theatre (NAST) accredited HBCU theatre arts programs. Three fundamental research questions guide the study: 1) How do Historically Black Colleges and University and their theatre programs impact the development of African American students? 2) What factors have hindered the development of a graduate theatre program at your institution specifically and at HBCUs? 3) How would a graduate theatre program at a Historically Black College and University impact educational theatre, the theatre professional, and African American graduate students? With a primary focus on the NAST-accredited Black academic theatre programs, this qualitative, narrative study project examines the role of Black Colleges and Universities, their theatre programs’ impact on African American student success and development, and the potential influence of a Black college graduate theatre program on academic and professional theatre. Significantly, this study addresses not only Black educational theatre but also ways in which undergraduate and graduate theatre programs at Predominantly White Institutions can strengthen relations with students of color and better incorporate the lived experiences of communities of color in theatre curricula and programming. The study mainly addresses the above research questions by employing a qualitative research methodology and narrative interviews, concentrating on the knowledge and experiences presented by experienced HBCU theatre faculty from Grambling State University, Howard University, North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University, and Alabama State University. However, the study does use qualitative research obtained through the Higher Education Arts Data Services (HEADS) and University of Pennsylvania's Center for Minority Serving Institutions (CMSIs) as a means to supplement and further strengthen the understanding of HBCUs and contextualize the current landscape of theatre in higher education. Most significantly, this study examines the implications of the findings, how these discoveries can aid in the HBCU theatre stability and advancement, and the ways in which PWIs can better engage with faculty and students of color
