1. Politics of Affection : Ex-Combatants, Political Engagement and Reintegration Programs in Liberia

5. Känsla för skådespelarkonst : mot en förståelse av tysta kunskaper och görandets fenomenologi
Sammanfattning : The primary argument in this thesis is that the common assumption that an actor has emotion inside him- or herself which can be evoked and projected outwards is an outdated misconception. A proposition is made to replace this possessive acting model, which underpins the realist tradition and is based on the popularized aspects of Stanislavsky’s system for actor training, by a situational acting model.
