I Have to Work So Hard to Make Sure I'm Likeable While Getting the Job Done”
Despite a rise in established, high‐profile female sport broadcasters, enduring and significant challenges remain for women pursuing sport broadcasting careers. Climbing the career ladder to high‐status positions requires more than just confidence and technical expertise; it necessitates strategic social skills that help female broadcasters navigate male‐dominated networks, deal with discrimination, generate good impressions, and position themsel…

Understanding workplace collaboration in professional rugby coaching
This ethnography examined the occupational teamwork of a Head Coach and his colleagues (assistants) in the rarely accessed world of professional rugby union. Extensive field notes and participant interviews were subject to emic and etic interpretations. The heuristic framework comprised the work of both classic and contemporary dramaturgical theorists. Our analysis generated novel findings regarding the everyday strategies and tactics that underp…
Reducing speeding via inanimate police presence
Research Summary The present research uses data from a police‐directed field study to explore the effects of police presence on speeding in two large cities in British Columbia, Canada. As part of the study, an inanimate but realistic‐appearing police cut‐out (“Constable Scarecrow”) was strategically positioned along roadways while motorist speed was measured using a radar‐recording device. The analyses of the multisite evaluation reveal that the…

Focusing on the case of Canadian film production, I begin by contextualizing Canadian film as a postcolonial site of globalized popular culture, characterized by ‘technological nationalism’. In this context, I consider three Canadian films that adapt Mary Shelley's Frankenstein to represent globalization. David Cronenberg's Vid…

Techno, Frankenstein and copyright
This essay argues that the widespread but not widely recognised adaptation of Frankenstein in contemporary dance music problematises the 'technological' constitution of modern copyright law as an instrument wielded by corporations to exert increasing control over cultural production. The argument first surveys recent accounts of intellectual property law's responses to sound recording technologies, then historicises the modern discourse of techno…
