The Sexualization of Suburbia
This kind of investigation may involve a descent from the peak of cultural critique and a willingness to explore the social spaces surrounding the arts faculty at ground level. It might also involve admitting that these areas stretch beyond the horizon of &s;critical vision&s; and into the sprawling areas of public administration, social welfare, popular schooling and citizenship. Still, even if it may not suit the urbane tastes of the universal …
The Suburban Weekend

From Theatre to Space Ship
This story, then, inverts the myth of the ideal, white, suburban space age family by presenting instead a failed black family whose break-up is caused by discrimination both in the space programme and in the white suburbs.
The Worst of All Possible Worlds?
Instead of going out to the cinema or the pub, the family sits night by night around the magic screen in its place of honour in the parlour. In one household the parents and five children of all ages were paraded around it in a half circle at 9 p.m. when one of us called; the two-month-old baby was stationed in its pram in front of the set. The scene had the air of a strange ritual.
Deep Suburban Irony
We use the term &s;distinction&s; to refer to the aestheticization of class. The aesthetic serves as the basis of a taxonomy which effectively depoliticizes the notion of economic classes about which Americans tend to be - at the very least - uncomfortable.
The Suburban Sensibility in British Rock and Pop
The suggestion that British pop sensibility is essentially suburban is hardly new. I have previously traced the suburban thread that runs through England&s;s musical Bohemia from jazz to blues to rock, while Jon Savage has explored the suburban secrets of punk and Sarah Thornton described the suburban routes of rave. In England suburbanism is, it seems, equally implicated in folk revival and indie ideology, and what is the Last Night of the Proms…
Excavating the Multicultural Suburb
It is not an overstatement to claim that the Western suburb is qUintessentially an imperialist form of human settlement. Michael Leaf &s;The Suburbanization of Jakarta&s; (1994), p. 341 perhaps close to the boundary of what was permissible in terms of the display of the female nude. Leighton largely escaped the charge of lewdness . . . partly because his nude subjects illustrated mythological events ... and partly because they were sufficiently g…

A Stake in the Country
And we had a Friendship group which were all young marrieds and we&s;d get together I think once a week on Monday night, and meet at different homes of our members, and the Ladies Church Aid, they&s;d have cake competitions and all that sort of thing.
Negotiating the Gnome Zone
Representations of suburbia in British cinema occur with surprising infrequency. Paul Oliver, the architectural historian who is suburbia&s;s most partisan champion, sees this as a deliberate cultural slight. British cinema, he insists, could have shown something of Dunroamin&s; s life and people, who supported the film industry by paying for a substantial proportion of the thirty million seats every week. Instead, there is scarcely a glimpse Thi…
Visions of Suburbia
Suburbia. Tupperware, television, bungalows and respectable front lawns. Always instantly recognisable though never entirely familiar. The tight semi-detached estates of thirties Britain and the infenced and functional tract housing of middle America. The elegant villas of Victorian London and the clapboard and brick of fifties Sydney. Architecture and landscapes may vary from one suburban scene to another, but the suburb is the embodiment of the…
Information and communication technologies and the moral economy of the household
The Oxford Handbook of Information and Communication Technologies
The Oxford Handbook of Information and Communication Technologies is about the many challenges presented by information and communication technologies (ICTs). The authors are principally researchers in anthropology, economics, philosophy, politics, and sociology. The book sets out an intellectual agenda that examines the implications of ICTs for individuals, organizations, democracy, and the economy. The production and consumption of ICTs are bec…

The Sociology of Mediation and Communication
This volume provides an overview of the field of sociology today its underlying theories/methods, key sub-disciplines, and primary debates. In the introduction, the editors reflect on changes in global society that have affected the study of sociology over the last twenty years. The 32 contributions from European and American academics cover such topics as the diversity and insularity of sociological traditions; the sociology of consumption and l…
Regulation, Media Literacy and Media Civics
2The locus of our regulatory concerns need to shift. In the new media world, a world that still includes old media, and old but yet resistant values driving institutional processes of mediation, the concern with markets, competition, and content needs to be rethought. This is not only because of the decline of spectrum scarcity, or the incapacity of national governments to control international flows of information and communication, but because …

Television And Everyday Life
Television is a central dimension of our everyday lives and yet its meaning and its potency vary according to our individual circumstances. Its power will always be mediated by the social and cultural worlds which we inhabit. In Television and Everyday Life, Roger Silverstone explores the enigma of television and how it has found its way so profoundly and intimately into the fabric of our everyday lives. His investigation unravels its emotional a…

Complicity and Collusion in the Mediation of Everyday Life
This essay investigates everyday life as a moral and a social space. It presumes that it is in the everyday, and above all in the detail of the relationships that are made with others and which constitute everyday life's possibility, that our common humanity is created and sustained. It also presumes that it is through the actions and the interactions that make up the continuities of daily experience that an ethics of care and responsibility is, …

Time, Information and Communication Technologies and the Household
This paper, which draws on ongoing empirical work in the UK, considers the particular dynamics of time within domestic settings. It situates those dynamics within arguments that have drawn attention to the power of the new information and communication technologies to transform our perceptions of, and relations to, time (and space). It suggests that an understanding of the patterns of everyday life, both inside and outside the home, provides a ba…

This article presents an account of the development of a research project into the household and the consumption of communication and information technologies. Previous research into the television audience has failed adequately to take into account the new communication environment of which television is but a part — an environment which is both technological and social. This paper offers a model for the analysis of the television audience which…

Le télétravail et révolution des relations entre le domicile et le travail
Les résultats d'une enquête menée sur un échantillon de « télétravailleurs » permettent aux auteurs de tenter de répondre à trois questions : - L'accessibilité des technologies des télécommunications et de l'informatique est-elle un facteur déterminant qui favorise et permette le télétravail à domicile ? - Le télétravail est-il susceptible d'introduire des changements majeurs dans l'organisation de la vie privée et quelles implications peut-il av…
Communicating Science to the Public
The projects share, with different degrees of emphasis, four main assumptions, supported by the literature. 1. There is no such thing as the communication of science. Neither science nor the media environment is a unified phenomenon. Scientists disagree; the media present different accounts; receivers of scientific communication interpret each set of them in different ways, which may result in distinct, even disjointed, understandings. 2. There i…

Rewriting the museums' fictions
The set of objects the Museum displays is sustained only by the fiction that they somehow constitute a coherent representational universe.... Should the fiction disappear, there is nothing left of the Museum but (‘bric-a-brac’), a heap of meaningless and valueless fragments of objects which are incapable of substituting themselves either metonymically for the original objects or metaphorically for their representations. (Donato 1979: 223)

Science on display
This article raises issues concerning popular representations of science, and in particular of scientific controversy, through a case-study of the treatment of food poisoning controversy in a museum exhibition. It is argued that the science that is created for the public is shaped not only by the overt intentions of the exhibition makers but also by constraints inherent in structural aspects of the exhibition-making process and exhibition philoso…

Communication By Design
The information revolution has been described as 'the biggest technological juggernaut that ever rolled' and every day we hear more about the Global Information Infrastructure. The information and communications technologies (ICTs) of the 1990s enable the electronic production and consumption of increasingly vast quantities of information. They affect business, consumer, education and leisure activity. The consequences of these changes are unpred…
