The Nomad at Home

SUMMARY

This essay addresses issues related to leaving and recreating a home from the perspective of different kinds of movements, transformations, and diasporic ways of living. Global restructurings in the wake of neoliberal economic developments provide the main background for a discussion of contemporary global upheavals and displacements, and the concomitant mix of old and new understandings of bordercrossing, multiple or hybrid identities, and neo/colonialism. The figure of the nomad is at the center of these discussions. The nomad is described as someone who carries home as an essential psychological belonging, and who can re-create home in diverse places, anywhere.     

竹枝词中的徽商妇形象研究

徽商妇是对应徽商集团的另一个群体,是明清时期最大的区域性留守群体。徽州竹枝词真实而诗化地再现了徽州妇生活和情感的历史场景。徽商妇并非"个体"而是一个有着数十万人的群体,究竟是什么魔力能让一个大规模的群体在数百年间如此笃守所谓的封建礼教而付出巨大的牺牲?仍值得反思。

Introduction: shifting meanings of home

The studies and narratives collected in this special volume acknowledge "home" as a complex, ambiguous notion and reality. The contributors pay tribute to different ways of experiencing home, and to multiple connections to place and time. They illustrate how home is a social edifice, how it embodies different meanings and values, how it demarcates individual and social or national identities, and how a longing for home permeates experiences of homelessness as well as cultural, spatial, linguistic, and economic transitions.     

Attitudes of a community members as a function of participatory research with Oxford Houses

Citizen participation in research may include involvement in generating original ideas, planning appropriate designs, collecting data, and helping to implement interventions. Unfortunately, little is known about the attitudes of the community members who participate in such research processes. In the present exploratory study, a team of community members (4 men, 3 women; age > 30 years old) who were employed as investigator research associates to evaluate an innovative substance abuse recovery home were asked for their perspectives about their involvement in the research effort. Findings indicated that these community members felt their participation was a positive experience. Moreover, while their understanding and sense of participation in the research process increased, their identification and affiliation with their support organization was not reduced. Results imply that there is a need to better understand how citizen members of community organizations are affected by their involvement in the research process.

论需要、理性和信仰

现实生活中,人具有多方面的需要。人的需要即人的本性。人的需要之所以能成为社会发展的内驱力,主要在于人有理性。然而,理性是人的福音也是人的祸因。因为正是理性使人处于一种永恒的不可避免的不平衡状态中,导致了人与自然、人与类、人与自我的深刻矛盾。这种种矛盾在现实中无从解脱,常使人去寻求另外超越的途径。这就是信仰。对于吃饱穿暖的当代人而言,信仰是其强烈的需要,如何寻找人的精神家园正成为人类最重要的课题之一。     

反腐举措述评

人性善恶,官场是大染缸,任何人一旦进入,如果不能好好把持自己,手中权力不能受到有效的监督与制约,人性中恶的一面就会暴露。缺乏制约的权力终究会腐败,不论是民选还是“钦定”的官员,不论是中国的官员还是外国的官员,这一点已经是有目共睹。为了行贿收买,行贿者花样翻新、无孔不入,贪财的送钱,好色的送女人,盛宴豪赌、香车豪宅,无所不用其极,有的则专门走所谓“夫人路线”、“子女路线”、“情人路线”、“秘书路线”。不论采取何种路径和手段,最终都是为了达到以钱买权、弄权生钱的目的。政务不公开、财务不透明乃是当前反腐面临的最大问题。

说"宰"

宰,本义是指在奴隶主家中劳动的奴隶;引申出冢宰、宰相义,其原因是冢宰与宰相虽位在万人之上,但对于君主来说,却也还是奴仆.     

Barriers Experienced by Kinship and Non-Relative Caregivers During the Foster and Adoptive Parent Licensure and Home Study Process

The shortage of foster/adoptive parents being licensed to care for children in the public welfare system prompted an evaluation of the Licensure and Home Study Process (LHSP). Ecological systems theory framed the barriers-to-resources interplay among kinship and non-relative caregivers who withdrew or completed the LHSP. This mixed-methods study examined differences in applicant characteristics and types of barriers experienced. Results indicated that applicants responsible for other children in the home paired with welfare system barriers served as a tipping point for withdrawal. Relatives encountered the most barriers and all grandparents withdrew from the LHSP prior to licensure.     

Facing Aliens Under Globalization

SUMMARY

This paper is concerned with changing meanings of home for Taiwanese employers of foreign domestics under globalization. Shifting sense of home occurs for Taiwanese employers as well as foreign domestics in the process of labor migration. The author argues that Taiwanese employers, facing aliens at home, have adopted various rhetorical strategies to redefine their relationships with foreign domestics and deployed diverse practices of management within their households. As foreign domestics do housework at home, Taiwanese employers also do their own “homework,” struggling to understand and cope with the process of becoming and being household employers. Their “homework” is an integral part of the globalization of domestic service.

The artist inscribed the words "Viva la Vida"on the central melon wedge at the bottom of the canvas, which trans-late as "Long live life," just eight days before she died.

Longing for home: displacement, memory and identity

This article focuses on the relationship between the country of birth and the ability of the individual from that country to create a sense of home, identity and belonging in other countries and cultures.

What does longing for home mean? The author draws on theory to address these questions but her personal story plays a prominent part.
