Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menyelidiki penggunaan sirkumstansialisasi dalam merepresentasikan secara inklusif aktor-aktor sosial yang terlibat dalam pidato politik Hassan Rouhani yang disampaikan di depan Sidang Umum Perserikatan Bangsa-Bangsa. Data diperoleh dari salah satu laman berita resmi Israel (www.timesofisrael.com) berupa 116 kalimat hasil transkripsi pidaro tersebut yang kemudian dianalisis menggunakan kerangka analisis aktor sosial Theo van Leeuwen. Kalimat-kalimat ini kemudian dielaborasi melalui teknik parafrase, yakni memodifikasinya secara struktural dengan tetap mempertahankan maknanya untuk mengungkap representasi inklusif aktor-aktor sosialnya. Hasilnya kemudian disajikan secara deskriptif. Pilihan linguistik Hassan Rouhani menekankan penggunaan preposisi sirkumstansial untuk melibatkan aktor-aktor sosial tertentu dalam pidato politiknya secara inklusif. Terdapat sembilan jenis preposisi yang digunakan Hassan Rouhani dalam pidatonya, yakni “against”, “among”, dan “for” untuk merepresentasikan peran pasif aktor-aktor sosial, preposisi “by”, “from”, dan “under” untuk menggambarkan peran aktif aktor-aktor sosial, preposisi “between” untuk menggambarkan peran yang berbeda dari aktor-aktor sosial (aktif dan pasif), preposisi “with” untuk menampilkan peran netral aktor-aktor sosial, dan preposisi “of” untuk memisahkan aktor-aktor social yang berperan aktif sebagai pelaku dan aktor-aktor social yang berperan pasif sebagai korban. Exerting van Leeuwen’s framework, this study aims at critically investigating the employment of circumstantialization in inclusively representing social actors involved in Hassan Rouhani’s political speech delivered in front of the General Assembly of the United Nations. Data were derived from one of Israel’s official websites (www.timesofisrael.com). Out of 116 sentences in the transcription of the speech, the relevant ones were selected to be analyzed using Theo van Leeuwen’s framework ‘Social Actor Analysis.’ These sentences were then elaborated through a paraphrase technique by structurally modifying them while maintaining their meaning to reveal social actors’ inclusive representation. The results were then presented descriptively. Hasan Rouhani’s linguistic choices accentuate the use of circumstantial prepositions to involve certain social actors in his political speech inclusively. Nine types of prepositions were employed in his speech. Hasan Rouhani used the preposition “against,” “among,” and “for” to represent the social actors in passive roles, the preposition “by,” “from,” and “under” to delineate the social actors in active roles, the preposition “between” to illustrate different roles of the social actors (active and passive) in social action, the preposition “with” to display the neutral role of the social actors, and the preposition “of” to indicate the active role or the passive role of the social actors.

Abstract This paper will reflect on key findings from a Summer 2017 initiative entitled The Role of Culture and Land-Based Healing in Addressing and Ending Violence against Indigenous Women and Two-Spirited People. The Indigenist and decolonizing methodological approach of this work ensured that all research was grounded in experiential and reciprocal ways of learning. Two major findings guide the next phase of this research, complicating the premise that traditional economic activities are healing for Indigenous women and Two-Spirit people. First, the complexities of the mainstream labour force were raised numerous times. Traditional economies are pressured in ongoing ways through exploitative labour practices. Secondly, participants emphasized the importance of attending to the responsibility of nurturing, enriching, and sustaining the wellbeing of soil, water, and original seeds in the process of creating renewal gardens as a healing endeavour. In other words, we have an active role to play in healing the environment and not merely using the environment to heal ourselves. Gardening as research and embodied knowledge was stressed by extreme weather changes including hail in June, 2018, which meant that participants spent as much time talking about the healing of the earth and her systems as the healing of Indigenous women in a context of ongoing colonialism.

Abstract During the last two decades of rising anti-migrant racism in Europe, Islamophobia has proven to be the highest, most acute, and widely spread form of racism. The article shows how anti-migrant Islamophobia is a structural phenomenon in European societies and how its internal structure has specific social roots and mechanisms of functioning. Such an articulate and interdependent set of key themes, policies, practices, discourses, and social actors it is intended to inferiorise and marginalise Muslim immigrants while legitimising and reproducing social inequalities affecting the majority of them. The article examines the social origins of anti-migrant Islamophobia and the modes and mechanisms through which it naturalises inequalities; it focuses on the main social actors involved in its production, specifically on the role of some collective subjects as anti-Muslim organizations and movements, far-right parties, best-selling authors, and the mass-media.

This study examines the linguistic structure used for uncovering gender ideologies through crime news headlines. It’s based on the idea that languages represent reality and different linguistic choices indicate different points of view of reality. Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) (Fairclough 1990,VanDijk 1995, Simpson 1993) is used in this study. The main objectives of the study are 1) to study the differences of representation between male and female social actors (Van Leeuwan 2008) in crime news headlines and 2) to study power relations, gender identities and the reproduction of patriarchal society through crime news headlines. Samples of 1,815 crime news headlines are analyzed in this study. The result shows that Thai crime news constructs gender identities based on gender ideology. Thai crime news headlines convey a variety of linguistic meanings which allow for varying forms of representation of social actors, including exclusion and inclusion of social actors. The exclusion of male social actors in headlines may be ideologically motivated by obscuring the responsibility of male actors for negative actions, whereas the exclusion of female social actors does not have the same effect because their referents can be inferred from the headline context. In addition, the inclusion of social actors varies according to the social actor’s sex. Male actors are usually referred to using a functionalization form or an appraisement form, whereas female actors are usually referred to using an identification form. These representations reflect the role of masculinity and femininity among men and women in the society.

This paper seeks to investigate the potentials of youth agency in the margin of society and understand the prospects for social action or “Hirak” as an ongoing sweeping protest wave of a marginalized population. Based on a national qualitative study about youth and marginality in Morocco, this paper will focus on three moments. First, it will examine youth perception, their representation of their subjectivities, and how the realities and experiences of exclusion and “Hogra” manifested in inequalities, injustice, and systematic violence have shaped their beliefs and desire to act. The second moment brings to the fore their apprehension of the hegemonic powers of state institutions and social actors to determine their motivations and initiatives to articulate their actions locally and nationally under conditions of domination. The third moment will shed light on the dynamics of youth agency and the nature of their actions, be it individual or collective, subjective or rational. Similarly, it will also consider the structural limitations impinging on the social, political, cultural life, and gender relations. This paper examines the relationship between youth agency in the margin and the emergence of a new quest for social action “Hirak” in different regions of Morocco and how this might pave the way towards renegotiating the existing social contract between society and state.


Malaysia as a country has grown quite a lot over the last two decades despite the political condition often troubled with allegations of corruption but speaking economically and in social context, it can be claimed that as a country, Malaysia has fared in a decent manner and it has been able to maintain stability which has helped to elevate the progress of the nation. The social structure of Malaysia is in such a manner where there is a broad distribution of multiple ethnicities and cultures that it has been able to maintain but in accordance to the latest Gender Development Index, as till 2017, Malaysia ranks 57th among the 189 countries (http://hdr.undp.org/en/composite/GDI) and is categorized as a country with “VERY HIGH HUMAN DEVELOPMENT”. The paper makes an attempt to analyze and evaluate the various factors that have direct and indirect implications in acting as factors to influence the presence of “glass ceiling” in the higher education sector with focus on women administration. The objective is to explore and identify the different reasons behind women having to struggle in a country that has such a commendable mark in the HDI where the ones leading are from generally characterized first world countries. The discussion would highlight ways as suggested and put forth by the respondents who have been exposed to “glass ceiling” in various aspects of their career from the different sources and their opinion as to how they were able to overcome and how the upcoming young generation, the women who are aspiring to join the workforce in the coming future can prepare themselves in a manner that would assist them to prepare themselves in ways that the effects and impacts of “glass ceiling” can be reduced and tackled. The role of the components from the society to have an active role in making the effects to be reduced is extremely crucial and has to be dealt with in a manner that can serve the society in the long run.

The activity of collecting zakat in the history of Islam, is an activity or effort of amil in collecting zakat by picking up or taking from the place of amil. In addition to taking zakat, the amils who are in charge of taking zakat must also pray for those who pay zakat.This study aims to determine the implementation of productive zakat fund management and empowerment of the poor on zakat funds that are given by LAIZSNU Lamongan.

When Paul and the author of 1 Clement write letters to Corinth to address crises of leadership, both discuss Moses’ παρρησία (frankness and openness), yet they evaluate it rather differently. In this article, I view both authors as entrepreneurs of identity and explore the ways in which they try to shape their audience’s social identity and influence their behaviour in the crisis by selectively retelling scriptural narratives related to Moses. The article shows that social psychological theories under the umbrella term of the social identity approach help to illuminate the active role of leaders in identity construction as well as the processes of retelling the past in order to mobilize one’s audience.
