Formal Techniques and Self/Other Relations in the Novels of Dirk Bogarde
No full textThe thesis foregrounds the distinctive contribution Dirk Bogarde made to
contemporary writing in a second career that developed in parallel to his screen
commitments. It dispels the notion that Bogarde followed a familiar path as an actor
who wrote books. Instead it establishes his reputation as an innovative writer whose
formal technique was substantially influenced by the textual systems of cinema and
the cross-fertilisation from acting to writing.
In examining the formative factors that steered Bogarde towards authorship, the
thesis addresses the role of performance as a generative factor in the evolution of the
novels, establishing a discursive link with Bakhtinian dialogism, and specifically,
transgredience as a formal imperative. Secondly, it affords a critical insight into why
the major concerns with staging and performativity preoccupy his writing career.
The thesis claims that Bogarde was an empirically dialogical writer whose use
of camera-eye narration fostered the proliferation of competing discourses across the
fiction. This formal dynamic is centred on the relationship between stages and
dialogism, which incorporates the work of Erving Goffinan as a complementary
critique to Bakhtinian theory with its emphasis on self-presentation. The concern
with socially-constructed behaviour leads the thesis to address the associated issues of
stereotyping and 'otherness', which in terms of body politics is articulated by the
mono logic drive to confine the sexual 'other' to a fixed representation.
Bogarde's ability to draw on cinematic and performance techniques identifies
an area of expertise unavailable to most other writers. This is an unusual repository
of skills to bring to writing which is why the thesis makes the claim for his singular
achievement as a contemporary author. There are fruitful points of intersection to be
explored in this respect with the work of Christopher Isherwood, whom Bogarde read
and admired, as a basis for further research. It is hoped that the thesis will play its
part in opening up new possibilities for Bogarde's writing to be re-visited by future
critics

"The end of national models? Integration courses and citizenship trajectories in Europe"
No full textSeveral European countries have recently introduced or are planning to introduce citizenship trajectories (voluntary or obligatory inclusion programs for recent immigrants) or citizen integration tests (tests one should pass to be able and acquire permanent residence or state citizenship). Authors like Joppke claim this is an articulation of a more general shift towards the logic of assimilation (and away from a multicultural agenda) in integration policy paradigms of European States. Integration policies would even be converging in such a fashion that it would no longer make sense to think in terms of national models for immigrant integration. One cannot deny the empirical fact of diffusion of civic integration policies throughout Europe. This paper claims there is, however, still sufficient distinctiveness between immigrant integration policies in order to continue and use an analytical framework which distinguishes national models
Wielofunkcyjne rolnictwo w perspektywie: konceptualizacja oraz debata w holenderskiej polityce i badaniach
No full textConceptualisation of multifunctional agriculture in Dutch policy and research has to be understood within the typical Dutch context and can be related to different perspectives of agriculture and the rural area. The Netherlands is a densely populated country with a very produc-tive agricultural sector, exporting most of its production. Limited space, the needs for and side-effects of agricultural modernisation and increasing societal demands towards food and the rural area have since long set the debate.Koncepcja przeprowadzonych badań opiera się na założeniu, że wielofunkcyjność rolnictwa w holenderskiej polityce i badaniach należy rozpatrywać w odniesieniu do specyfiki rolnictwa holenderskiego. W Holandii koncepcja wielofunkcyjności pojawiła się w latach siedemdziesiątych wraz z problemami wywołanymi negatywnymi skutkami intensyfikacji rolnictwa. Dalszy rozwój w latach osiemdziesiątych i dziewięćdziesiątych przyczynił się do rozszerzenia koncepcji wielofunkcyjności i określenia definicji: "rolnictwo szerszych celów", rolnictwo alternatywne, zintegrowane rolnictwo i zróżnicowane rolnictwo. Wielofunkcyjność rolnictwa oceniono z uwzględnieniem jego udziału w zrównoważonym rozwoju obszarów wiejskich. Obecnie zrównoważony rozwój obszarów w większym stopniu niż koncepcja wielofunkcyjności koncentruje uwagę zarówno polityków, jak i badaczy w Holandii.
