Mayor short and the I.W.W. Agricultural workers

The following article analyzes the under-researched theme of Indian migration during indenture in British Guiana and Trinidad. It is understood that Indians were brought to the Caribbean under a series of restrictive colonial policies that stymied free movement. However, it is argued that some Indians resisted these very colonial regulations and exercised their individual right to migrate and subsequently dictate their own lives. Some independently took illegal action to acquire freedom while others waited until their contracts expired to migrate. While the number of those who migrated was consistently smaller than those who remained on the plantations, migration was a permanent feature of the plantation system that lasted as long as indenture itself. Indian migration during indenture can be conceptualized into three overlapping historical phases: (1) desertion from the plantations; (2) migration from the plantations to settlements (rural) to urban areas; and (3) intra-regional migration from one Caribbean island to the other.     

Development of interest and enjoyment in adolescence. Part II. Boredom and psychopathology

Significant changes in both the capacity and the content of attention emerge during adolescence. Part II of this two-part article argues that a central task of adolescence is to utilize increased information-processing capacities in order to develop attentional habits which shape interests, provide enjoyment, and avoid boredom. Reports of chronic boredom or of extreme efforts to escape from boredom during adolescence may signify substantial difficulty in forming the attentional habits required for developing a separate identity. When adolescents are bored, they may resort to habits of attention and enjoyment which have deleterious personal, social, and ecological consequences. Further study of attention in adolescence may help to explore preventive educational approaches to the problem of boredom and of “pathological” solutions to boredom.     

美国金融危机及其对我们的启示和防范方法

这次美国乃至世界的金融危机启示我们,制度缺陷和技术停滞是降低生产效率、阻碍经济增长的主要因素。中国党和政府针对这一问题提出了"科学发展观"的指导思想。科学发展是靠制度的改进和技术进步来提高效率的。要保持经济健康稳定发展就必须从防范国家风险的角度去防范金融衍生品市场的交易活动,使其处于可控和可承受状态,将它消灭于萌芽之时,使我们立于不败之地。
