In this conceptual article, the authors explore the possibilities of another approach to examining the human dimensions of wildland fire. They argue that our understanding of this issue could be enhanced by considering a cultural studies construct known as the “circuit of culture.” This cross-disciplinary perspective provides increased analytic pow...

The study focuses on the construction of gender roles in L-Men advertisements. Using a cultural studies approach and a modified circuit of culture as a methodological and theoretical framework, this study aims to identify how gender roles are associated with production, representation, identity, and consumption. Furthermore, it can facilitate a broad contextual understanding of the Indonesian male identity's complexities and contradictions. L-Men is an Indonesian brand that produces a protein-rich drink that is intended to assist men in gaining muscle mass. The gender roles in L-Men Platinum advertisements are investigated in this study. The study reveals that advertising constructs the identity of ideal masculinity in Indonesian society through representation. L-Men advertising builds a toxic mindset in society, especially for males, by consistently using muscular models or actors in the advertisement. Also, it is stated in every L-Men advertisement from time to time that it still consistently uses the tagline "Trust me, It works", which implicitly instills a perception of its achievement in accomplishing a body goal for its customers. Thus, advertising has become an effective medium for commercializing products and constructing gender roles in society, particularly for men.
... Those applied to management goals witness interpersonal relationships in a wide range of experiences, including the process of representation, identity, production, consumption, and regulation. This model of a cultural circuit can apply as long as the processes of understanding the cultural circuit are dynamic and see how, when, and why they emerge; how they are related; and when the archetypes change [71]. Put our model in the cultural circuit, and we can identify the five aspects of performance, identity, production, consumption, and regulation [72]. ...
The aim of this research is to identify the digital technology impact and experience innovation of cultural heritages in the context of the epidemic. The authors created an analytical framework and used a qualitative exploratory multi-case study of three cultural heritages in Taiwan. The findings indicate that digital technology has facilitated further innovations in cultural heritages under the epidemic to be closer to consumers’ daily life and more connected with the young generation. Compared to traditional cultural heritages, profit-making cultural heritages need sales of its products to sustain operations, while live streaming, which is interactive, is rising as a new way to promote sales. Using multiple digital platforms can maintain consumers’ interest in the cultural heritages, encouraging follow-up visits and thus resulting in more traffic online and offline. This paper illustrates the advantages of digital technology in the context of the epidemic, highlighting the innovative technology of live streaming and social platforms introduced that are different from the traditional cultural heritages.
... In essence, she engages with what cultural studies theories call the "circuit of cultural pro duction." Such analyses have a number of steps, and there is now a long tradition of conceptual, historical, and empirical work in this area (Champ & Brooks 2010;Du Gay et al., 1997;Hall, 2016). But for the purposes of this essay, three act as guidelines: examining a text's or site's production, distri bution, and reception (Johnson, 1986(Johnson, /1987. ...
... Our project was structured on a modified circuit of culture model emphasising: production (how, and by whom, 'things', such as global perspective(s), are created; representation (the ways that language, as words, symbols and metaphors, influences meaningful experience); and consumption (what people do with the things that are produced and represented). Similar cultural analyses of environmental phenomena have been provided by Carvalho and Burgess (2005) and by Champ and Brooks (2010). ...
We used a modified circuit of culture enquiry to explore processes of production, representation and consumption of global perspective at our university, in the context of fostering this perspective as a graduate attribute. We identified four frame packages by which this perspective is understood and communicated. Global perspective is framed within our institution simultaneously as essentially cooperative and as competitive. We express concern about how such complexity is fostered in our students. We ask our colleagues and university teachers internationally to critically reflect upon the diversity of global perspectives extant within higher education and potentially to clarify their intentions as university teachers.
... The "phenomenon" to be better understood could be based around a single artefact such as Du Gay et al"s study of the Sony Walkman (1997), or dynamic service such as Napster (Taylor et al., 2002). Other examples include promotional campaigns for commercial products (Scherer & Jackson, 2008), changes in social action or behaviours (Brooks, 2010;Gould & Gould, 2003;Le Mare, 2007) and a collection of tourist brochures that are shown to utilize an archetype that results in the reproduction of a particular discourse (Norton, 1996). My study used freely available influential texts that included media reports, policy documents, transcripts of political speeches and parliamentary discussions, guidelines and advice, government reviews and reports, academic papers from a range of disciplines, and marketing and promotional texts. ...
"The Circuit of Culture (the Circuit) was refined as a tool of cultural analysis by British cultural theorists in the late 1990s. This article will provide a brief history of the Circuit, some of its applications and critique, and an overview of a recent study that utilizes the Circuit to explore a topical cultural phenomenon, international (full fee paying) student programs in Australian state schools (Leve, 2011a). This study draws on the Circuit to open the way for an exploration of the multiple interrelated processes involved in the construction and management of an education commodity. The Circuit emphasizes the moments of production, representation, consumption, regulation and identity, and the interrelated articulations of these moments, and is found to be a useful tool for exploring the contemporary significance of, and possibilities for, considering the increasingly complex multiple modes of each.

... To this purpose, we applied a theoretical model of human relations and communication known as the Circuit of Culture (Acosta-Alzuru 2003; Benwell 2003Benwell , 2005Burgess 1990;Champ 2008;Champ and Brooks 2010;Curtin and Gaither 2005Dean and Jones 2003;Levine 2001;Norton 1996;Soar 2000;Squire 1993Squire , 1994aTaylor and others 2002;Terry 2005;Wilcox 2003 Hall (1997, p. 6) called the ''effects and consequences'' of certain structural arrangements of cultures and societies. This model, Hall wrote, seeks to examine how a given arrangement, such as the partnership, ''connects with power,'' regulates behavior, constructs identities, and defines how ''things are represented, thought about, practiced, and studied.'' ...
... ''Identity'' or ''identities'' (see Woodward 1997) are ''types'' (du Gay and others 1997, p. 15) or ''social profiles'' that groups and individuals use to assign meaning to people, places, things, or events (Champ and Brooks 2010). The frequency and complexity with which humans share stories of identity are one of the characteristics that make us unique in the animal kingdom. ...
... ''Regulation'' is the final process in the Circuit of Culture model and includes formal governmental policy as well as informal, on-the-ground social norms and other types of social-or self-regulation (Champ and Brooks 2010;Thompson 1997). We did not specifically focus on regulatory processes related to the partnership's work on wildfire risk mitigation in this study. ...
This article identifies and compares meanings of wildfire risk mitigation for stakeholders in the Front Range of Colorado, USA. We examine the case of a collaborative partnership sponsored by government agencies and directed to decrease hazardous fuels in interface areas. Data were collected by way of key informant interviews and focus groups. The analysis is guided by the Circuit of Culture model in communication research. We found both shared and differing meanings between members of this partnership (the "producers") and other stakeholders not formally in the partnership (the "consumers"). We conclude that those promoting the partnership's project to mitigate risk are primarily aligned with a discourse of scientific management. Stakeholders outside the partnership follow a discourse of community. We argue that failure to recognize and account for differences in the way risk mitigation is framed and related power dynamics could hamper the communicational efforts of the collaborative partnership and impact goals for fuels reduction. We recommend ways that both groups can capitalize on shared meanings and how agency managers and decision makers can build better working relationships with interface communities and other external stakeholders.
... For democratized NRM information needs, this inherited etic model of culture is risky. While useful for outside descriptions, the etic view does not provide the level of detail with which to understand why and how embedded social practices are in resource use or how to discuss these interrelations with stakeholders inside the culture (Cantrill 1993; Champ and Brooks 2010; Smith 1999). To meet the microscale demands of decentralized planning , we use an emic view of culture. ...
Community-engaged decision-making and management mark a change in philosophy and practice of shared-resource governance. Moving from national to local scales of agency coordination and public engagement requires equivalent change in the scale of useful social science data. Upon recognizing landowners and resource users as allies in policy implementation, success relies on how well diverse groups can understand one another and work together. Unfortunately, managers often have a fragmented understanding of the interests, voices, and lives of the public they serve. We outline an early scoping means for engaging and organizing local voices to prepare decisionmaking teams. To provide a foundation for decentralized water resource planning, we used a cultural studies lens to conduct and analyze 313 in-depth stakeholder interviews on the Yellowstone River. This essay chronicles this approach and reflects benefits and challenges, and why it may appeal to other decentralized planning efforts.
... Over the last decade, in particular, debates around risk have also involved an increased interest on the part of both academics and policymakers in the related concepts of vulnerability, resilience and crisis (Ibarraran et al., 2009;Yates and Bergin, 2009). More recently, writers such as Pyne (2009) and Champ and Brooks (2010) have argued for a renewed research emphasis on the human geography of fire. ...
The 7 February 2009 bushfires in the peri-urban region to the north of metropolitan Melbourne heralded what many have called an entirely new epoch in terms of weather-related disasters in Australia. A total of 173 people and 2000 properties were destroyed and, as with the 1939 fires in Victoria, a Royal Commission was subsequently instituted to inquire into the causes and responses to the fire. The Royal Commission has heard much evidence about alleged failings of fire response, communication and administration. It also considered land use planning issues and the associated regulatory framework. Using the Shire of Murrindindi as a case study, this paper argues that the location of population growth, and associated regulatory failure, are contributory, yet under-researched, factors associated with life and property losses. The adoption of more robust planning tools which incorporate climate change considerations, we argue, is essential to anticipate and minimise the impacts of disastrous natural events such as bushfires. In the latter part of the paper, attention is drawn to a recent Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal decision which is groundbreaking in its use of the precautionary principle to prevent dwelling construction in an ‘inappropriate’ location as well as to some major inconsistencies between planning for flood and bushfire threats.
Almost all of the discussions surrounding educational policy focus their attention on particular places, especially various kinds of formal schooling. While this focus is of course crucial, it tends to ignore other educational sites where acts of teaching go on and where challenges to accepted understandings are waged. These include libraries and the topic of this essay, museums. Creating the Creation Museum clearly documents why such sites are worthy of our most serious attention. The book is a substantive contribution in a number of ways. It offers important critical insights about the Museum and its overt role in “advancing a long standing movement goal: advancing the cultural authority of creation science.” It also provides us with an expanded set of methodological tools for engaging in such work.
