Filmanalyse: Breaking the waves
Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2008 im Fachbereich Filmwissenschaft, Note: 2,0, Hochschule der Medien Stuttgart, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: In dieser Hausarbeit wird der Film Breaking the Waves analysiert. Dabei geht es vor allem um die Arbeit mit der Kamera. Schwerpunkt hierbei sind die gewählten Perspektiven und Kamerabewegungen; sie werden aufgezeigt und analysiert. Zuvor wird der Inhalt des Films kurz zusammengefasst, da sonst nur schwer beurteilt werden kann, in wie weit die Kameraarbeit den Film inhaltlich unterstützt oder möglicherweiße im Kontrast zu ihm steht. Eine detaillierte Inhaltsanalyse ist hier jedoch nicht möglich, da dies Gegenstand einer eigenständigen Ausarbeitung wäre. Schwerpunkt dieser Analyse ist und bleibt die Kameraarbeit bei Breaking the Waves. Vor Beginn der Analyse steht noch ein kurzer Überblick über den Regisseur sowie den Kameramann. Auch diese Informationen helfen, die Ergebnisse im Gesamtkontext des Films einzuordnen. Abschließend folgt in einer Schlussbetrachtung eine kurze Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Merkmale der Kameraarbeit sowie ein generelles Fazit über den Film.
Chinese Global Infrastructure
Infrastructure is at the heart of China's presence in global development and is also central to larger debates about Chinese influence. This Element provides a comprehensive account of major, Chinese government-financed infrastructure projects in the Global South since 1949. Using new datasets, it demonstrates that Chinese global infrastructure is distinct in terms of its historical tenacity and massive contemporary scope. But this does not imply that contemporary Chinese global infrastructure or the Belt and Road Initiative should be studied in a vacuum. Historical and comparative perspectives show that contemporary projects often emerge based on similar political logics to those that shaped infrastructure investment in earlier periods of Chinese history and other international contexts. The Element then examines how infrastructure projects have created both purposeful and unintended sources of influence by serving as valuable but risky political capital for host country governments as well as the Chinese government.
