| Popis: | 103 This study focused on”318 Occupy Congress” with focus on the participants intimacy narrative. The methods of narrative and feminist research are the foundation of the study. Narrative, textual analyses and in-depth interview s are utilized to observe the public-private split which the participants have experienced in the Movement. The interpersonal boundary works and public/private split experienced in the Movement have the participants readjust the boundary works in their personal relationships. In the study, it is found that interpersonal boundary work happens often in movements. Boundary works, which are related to communities’ identity, vary among different intimacies. Interpersonal and intergroup boundary works during the Movement are embodied in participants’ narrative and the text. With a closer look at the boundary works, it is found that there are also boundary works between public and private spheres which recurred in the Movement and led to conflicts and strategies taken during the Movement. With discussions of boundary works and public/private spheres, it is found that the boundaries between the public/private spheres vary among different participants and situations. The existing boundaries, which are blurry and ever-changing, were experienced by the participants and have become a part of their life story. |
