The actor/observer effect was examined by Storms in a 1973 study which manipulated perceptual orientation using video recordings. Storms' study was complex and some of his results equivocal. The present study attempted to recreate the perceptual reorientation effect using a simplified experimental design and an initial difference between actors and observers which was the reverse of the original effect. Female undergraduates performed a motor co-ordination task as actors while watched by observers. Each person made attributions for the actor's behaviour before and after watching a video recording of the performance. For a control group the video recording was of an unrelated variety show excerpt. Actors' initial attributions were less situational than observers'. Both actors and observers became more situational after the video replay but this effect occurred in both experimental and control groups. It was suggested the passage of time between first and second recording of attributions could account for the findings and care should be taken when interpreting Storms' (1973) study and others which did not adequately control for temporal effects.

Прослідковуються урбанізаційні та дезурбанізаційні процеси в моді ХХ ст. Звернено увагу на недостатню вивченість питань естетичних та культурологічних аспектів формування моди як видовища в контексті образного простору культури повсякдення. Визначено видовищні виміри модної діяльності як комунікативної сцени. Наголошено на необхідності актуалізації народних мотивів свята, творчості в гурті, певної стилізації у митців та дизайнерів моди мистецтва ностальгійного, втраченого світу з метою осягнення фольклорної, глибинної стихії моди як екомунікативного простору культури повсякдення. Ключові слова: міф, мода, етнокультура, етнос, свято, площа Ключові слова: міф, мода, етнокультура, етнос, свято, площа. According to E. Moren ethnic cultural influences take place in urbanized environment and turn it into "island ontology".Everyday life ethnic culture is differentiated, specified as a certain type of spectacle. However, all that powerful cosmologism, which used to exist as an open-air theater in settlements, near rivers, grasslands, roads, is disappearing. The everyday life culture loses imperatives, patterns, and cosmological designs, where, for example, the “plahta” contains rhombuses, squares, and rectangles - images of the earth, and the top of the costume symbolizes the sky. Yes, the symbolic marriage of earth and sky was a prerequisite for marrying young people. The article deals with traces of the urbanization and deurbanization processes in the twentieth century fashion.Key words: ethnic culture, culture of everyday life, ethnics, holidays, variety show, knockabout comedy, square.

In the light of ongoing debates about secular state and religious right in India, Sri Lanka and Myanmar, this article examines the intellectual contribution of Dr B. R. Ambedkar towards sustaining democracy in South Asia. His critical contributions included non-violent mobilisation of Dalits and adivasis around their human rights, identity, citizenship and religious faith. Most importantly, he argued that democratic values of equality, liberty and fraternity are not only of European origin but also have roots in South Asia, particularly within the Buddhist tradition. The article reflects on Ambedkar’s politics, social philosophy and contribution to the formation of ‘religious left’ and the process of progressive democratic change via Navayana Buddhism.

<p>Perkembangan televisi komersial begitu pesat, sehingga terjadi berkompetisi ketat untuk mendapatkan <em>share</em> penonton dan kue iklan. Faktanya saat ini  terkadang kualitas tayangan bukan lagi menjadi prioritas. Tidak sedikit konten tayangan yang melanggar etika atau perundang-undangan penyiaran. Selama ini masyarakat (khalayak) tidak pernah tahu bahwa beberapa tayangan variety show dan iklan  ternyata bermasalah dan melanggar etika komunikasi.  Dalam upaya mengadvokasi dan memberi penyadaran kepada para pelajar tentang pentingnya mengritisi konten media (khususnya televisi), dengan ini telah dilaksanakan kegiatan pelatihan “ Menganalisis Etika Komunikasi pada Tayangan TV” kepada siswa/i kelas X SMAN 38 Jakarta Selatan. Tujuannya adalah: (1) Memberikan pengetahuan kepada para siswa tentang etika komunikasi di media massa; (2) Mendorong para siswa untuk kritis terhadap konten televisi; (3) Menstimuli para siswa untuk menjadi penggerak literasi media di masyarakat. Bentuk kegiatan berupa pelatihan dengan membagi siswa ke dalam 7 kelompok, lalu berdiskusi dan membedah tayangan “Rumah Uya” dan “Iklan Mie Sedap” dengan menggunakan Standar Program Siar (SPS)  sebagai panduan untuk menganalisis konten. Setelah berdiskusi, setiap kelompok melakukan presentasi dan memberikan argumentasinya kemudian divalidasi oleh pemberi pelatihan.</p><p> </p><p><em><br /></em></p>
