Nuclear Security: the IAEA Faces the Future / Bufford, Jessica   Journal Article
Bufford, Jessica Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract In 1972, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) published a thin booklet titled “Recommendations for the Physical Protection of Nuclear Material.” It was the agency’s first publication on nuclear security, narrowly targeted at protecting nuclear material from theft or sabotage. Nearly 50 years later, nuclear security is a robust field covering a range of security issues and supported by a wide professional community. This was evident as the IAEA convened its third International Conference on Nuclear Security (ICONS), on February 10–14, 2020.

Pink rupees or gay icons?: accounting for the camp appropriation of male bollywood stars / Henniker, Charlie   Journal Article
Henniker, Charlie Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract Discussions of contemporary films and publications now illustrate the problematic terminology of terms like 'gay' or 'camp' in India, coupled with increasing speculation and reference to homosexuality. This article analyses media representations of Hindi cinema stars and highlights the emergence of some male stars as icons for gay communities within India and in the diaspora. Analysis of the way Bollywood celebrities are represented in India's press in-dicates that the media has been crucial for this emergence to occur. Focussing on Shah Rukh Khan, Bollywood's most recognisable and influential star today, the article argues that while a cult of interpretation surrounds Bollywood icons, there is a definite trend of stars confronting and negotiating sexually ambiguous spaces, both on screen and off. Media 'gossip' and specific public responses thus serve a variety of commercial as well as socio-cultural and wider political purposes.
