Gender Stereotypes in Desperate Housewives
Gender Stereotypes in Desperate Housewives
Martina Matijević
A TV series that provides entertainment and something to think about is not very easy to create. However, Marc Cherry managed to do just that and that is probably the reason why his TV series Desperate Housewives is so successful. Many social issues which appear in this TV series make people think about their everyday behaviour and how that behaviour affects other people. Therefore, this paper deals with some of those problems which are present in the series like representation of women,...
Gender and Language Identity of the Advertisements
Gender and Language Identity of the Advertisements
Natalija Zubak
This work analyzes the way in which women and men are presented in the certain American ads throughout the past few decades. The analysis shows although the feminist movement was successful the display of women in the ads had not been changed a lot considering the past. Women and the men are presented stereotypically, what reaches its peak in the modern times while presenting women as hyper-sexualized and men as dominant beings, who objectify women. Since almost every ad possess a little bit...

Irena Lekić

The analysis is based on the work of the 20th century gender theorists Simone de Beauvoir and Judith Butler. In Orlando, the emphasis is on the concept of gender performativity, first described and used by Butler in her book Gender Trouble (1990), with the aim of understanding women beyond the confinements of their gender. Similarly, the question of...

Gender roles and Stereotypes in The Big Bang Theory
Nika Šustić
The aim of this paper is to analyse the representation of gender roles and stereotypes in the popular sitcom The Big Bang Theory, mostly focusing on Stuart Hall’s representation theories.

The main characters, Sheldon, Leonard, Penny, Howard, Raj, Bernadette, and Amy, at the same time reinforce and challenge the traditional gender roles and...
Gender roles in romantic comedies
Gender roles in romantic comedies
Ela Igrec
It can be said that popular culture and real life world are interdependable as they influence each other. Popular culture effects everyday lives with its representation of certain matters, whereas real-life events can be so powerful as to guide what popular culture will represent. The most concerning thought about popular culture is the fact that it can represent people, culture and concepts in stereotypical and prejudicial way. It is therefore of high importance to analyse which stereotypes...

Ante Relja
Andrija Matijaš – Pauk rođen je u Pozorcu u općini Marina pokraj grada Trogira 31. srpnja. 1947. godine.

Generalne ideološke orijentacije kod slobodnih građana i zatvorenika
Jakov Proroković
Osnovni cilj ovog istraživanja bio je konstruirati upitnik generalnih ideoloških orijentacija, te provjeriti njegovu dimenzionalnost i osnovne metrijske karakteristike. U prilog potencijalnoj valjanosti ovog mjernog instrumenta, drugi cilj bio je ispitati neke sociodemografske korelate generalnih ideoloških orijentacija te eventualne razlike u istima kod slobodnih građana i građana koji trenutno služe zatvorsku kaznu. Konstruirani upitnik ideoloških orijentacija i upitnik...
Generatori pare na ispušne plinove
Generatori pare na ispušne plinove
Kristian Dušević
Rad je pisan s ciljem da se objasni način rada, konstrukcijske karakteristike, te način održavanja ovih generatora pare. Generatori pare na ispušne plinove su uređaji koji smanjuju potrošnju goriva iskorištavanjem otpadne topline iz ispušnih plinova toplinskih uređaja. Ovi uređaji rade po termodinamičkom procesu koji se naziva Clausius–Rankineov proces. Toplina iz ispušnih plinova prelazi na vodu komešanjem, provođenjem topline, te toplinskim zračenjem. Glavni dijelovi...
Genetičko savjetovalište i prenatalna dijagnostika
Genetičko savjetovalište i prenatalna dijagnostika
Maja Mlakić
Genetičko savjetovalište ustanova je koja pruža pojedincu ili obitelji osnovne obavijesti o bolestima i anomalijama koje se nasljeđuju te njihovom utjecaju na život bolesnika. U savjetovalištu različiti stručnjaci objašnjavaju budućim roditeljima način i rizik nasljeđivanja, predočavaju mogućnosti u odnosu na rizik (odustajanje od potomstva, usvajanje, umjetna oplodnja), pomažu u samostalnom donošenju odluka te provode razgovore s roditeljima. Stoga je prikladnije govoriti o...
Geneza rastafarijanizma kao kontrakulture u subkulturu mladih i postmodernističku duhovnost
Geneza rastafarijanizma kao kontrakulture u subkulturu mladih i postmodernističku duhovnost
Paola Pučić
Namjera ovog rada jest istražiti rastafarijanizam kao kontrakulturni pokret u njegovim počecima, a koji se tijekom vremena, većinom posredstvom reggae glazbe, razvio u subkulturu kao životni stil mladih, odnosno rastafarijanstvo kao način života i postao jedan od oblika nove duhovnosti, odnosno jedan od novih postmodernističkih duhovnih pokreta. Time se također želi pokazati i znanstveno-sociološka relevantnost tog višedimenzionalnog fenomena u kojem se isprepleću i spajaju...
