Therefore, one goal of this research was to investigate the relationship between gender power and the content strategy of cannabis media by recording and summarizing information about the types of media content, elements, styles, and themes of digital creators of different genders. Findings reveal that the social media content of male cannabis influencers is more focused on cannabis and its derivatives compared with females. However, for female cannabis consumers, cannabis is an accessory for their ideal lifestyle and is one of the factors in constructing their data subjectivities. Overall, with cannabis legalization developing, the image of cannabis and cannabis community are gradually transforming in a positive way. Additionally, the evaluation of communicating effects brought by digital creators of different genders is framed by analyzing the feedback from media consumers. Findings indicate that female and male cannabis influencers play horizontal and vertical influencing roles respectively in spreading cannabis in the community. While female cannabis media easily reaches different groups of users, male cannabis media is more effective at promotion to cannabis communities. These findings have implications for allowing media professionals and platform regulators to build on their existing knowledge of the construction of cannabis media. Finally, this study provides some context for the connection among media content production, distribution, consumption, and how they can construct data subjectivity together.","PeriodicalId":260954,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Academic Conference on Research in Social Sciences","volume":"366 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116560633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although all RCEP members have made commitments under the Paris Agreement, the increasing GDP growth and carbon emissions in RCEP have excessively outpaced the global average. Under this circumstance, the core problem in policy and research is to which extent carbon emissions be decoupled from economic growth. Consequently, the study aims to explore the decoupling relationship between carbon emissions and economic growth and investigate the driving factors of carbon emissions in RCEP. The paper conducted the Tapio decoupling model to investigate the decoupling relationship in RCEP during 1990-2019 and combined the Kaya identity with LMDI decomposition to analyze the driving factors of carbon emissions (energy structure, energy intensity, economic growth, and population size). We found that: (1) RCEP still has not completely decoupled carbon emissions from economic growth. The weak decoupling accounted for the most time in RCEP countries. (2) Expansive coupling and expansive negative decoupling mainly occurred in developing countries; (3) Economic growth was the primary factor of increased carbon emissions in RCEP, which is more pronounced in developing countries with worse decoupling status; (4) Energy intensity and energy structure mainly contributed to carbon reduction, which is more pronounced in developed countries. To decouple economic growth from carbon emissions, RCEP should accelerate the energy transition, industrial adjustment and technology sharing.","PeriodicalId":260954,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Academic Conference on Research in Social Sciences","volume":"461 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123025042","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

During his 56-year-long career, he collected descriptions of life and customs of the inhabitants of Klakar and a wider Brod-Posavina area. His manuscripts contain over 10,000 pages. Although presented as a monograph, the manuscripts have not been sufficiently analysed in the context of psychology, sociology, politics, history, philology and other sciences. They contain folk chants, notes on social relationships, customs, beliefs, folk medicine, architecture, economy, the art of traditional clothing, folk songs, prayers, stories, short stories, incantations, fables, jokes and complex soldiers’ poems which form the basis of the analysed corpus. As Lukić meticulously documented his materials and conveyed the atmosphere of his time, the soldiers’ poems are an ideal indicator of a soldier’s psychological microworld before and after WWI. It seems like the inhabitants of the Brod-Posavina region themselves speak through the poems honestly, as witnesses, about the events, feelings, and situations in the armed forces, and discipline and drills they had experienced before battles and during the war. They speak about relationships between the soldiers and their superiors, and soldiers’ feelings and dissatisfaction caused by disrespect for human dignity. They mention fears, restlessness and uncertainty due to battles they were about to enter, and dissatisfaction with the relationships between them and their superiors. Soldiers’ poems, therefore, speak for the first time about the main protagonists of WWI, from first-hand experience.","PeriodicalId":260954,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Academic Conference on Research in Social Sciences","volume":"367 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126704862","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

They tried to survive in British society with their fragmented identities but they were sometimes misrecognised as refugees in social life. Considering the Windrush migration in the post-war era, the Jamaicans, who immigrated to London, came to the fore. They had to come through some obstacles through the process of recognition. The position of these Jamaican immigrants in Britain was problematic despite their legal recognition, because they suffered from cultural trauma as a result of their identity crisis. Regarding the post-war Caribbean immigration to Britain in literature, Andrea Levy’s novel Small Island should be highlighted. In this autobiographical work, as one of the representatives of Windrush generation in Britain, the novelist’s own experiences can be observed. Levy’s social, racial and cultural fragmentation as a hybrid, who was torn between her Jamaican background and English nationality, led her to focus on the lives of the Caribbean immigrants, who have tried to be socially recognised in British society. Even though in the post-war epoch these immigrants were officially accepted in Britain, some of them regarded themselves as refugees, who were misrecognised or non-recognised due to their hybridity. Therefore, in this paper, the process through which the Caribbean immigrants in Britain were legally recognised, together with their social, mental and cultural displacement, will be explored by analysing Levy’s Small Island in the light of the novelist’s own experiences.","PeriodicalId":260954,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of The 6th International Academic Conference on Research in Social Sciences","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129901376","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
