Giving Silence a Chance: The Importance of Life Stories for Research on Refugees

In order to capture refugees’ experiences and narrativesit is necessary to create space within research to be able tonotice the untold within the interviews. This article focuseson the ways that Iranian women refugees (in the Netherlandsand the United States) narrate their experiences of the pastand the present or stay silent when the experiences are toodifficult to talk about. Including the moments of silence withinthe process of analysing the stories has helped the researcherto discover different layers within the interviews. The mainargument of this article is that the combination of the lifestories method and the comparative nature of the research haveespecially helped to find out about the different ways in whichthe past is positioned within the present narratives. The lifestories in particular have created the necessary space to listento the often untold stories of refugees. This has enabled theresearcher to go beyond the expressed words in order to understanddifferent layers of expression within the narratives.     

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。

生存理性主导下的创业实践--以广州城乡结合部的成衣社区为例

我国大规模的跨地区人口流动持续了20多年.在这庞大的流动人群内部,已开始出现社会分化,部分外出务工者开始选择异地创业来代替打工.但是,由于各种歧视性的制度限制,那些外来的小老板们时刻面临着因破产而无法在创业地生存下去的压力.他们的创业实践因而表现出特定的计算模式和经营方式,包括采用无条件压缩生活开支、使用无偿家庭劳动力、自我剥削和割喉式竞争等办法.这些实践表明,生存理性主导下的创业,具有自身的逻辑和特点,利润最大化的经济逻辑难以诠释这类经济行为.     

The ‘beyond parental control’ label in Nigeria

Recent reports in Nigeria indicate a geometric rise in incarcerated adolescents, with an overwhelming majority of this increase being attributed to adolescents being declared ‘beyond parental control’. There is a nagging suspicion that the Nigerian juvenile justice system has over criminalised adolescents by declaring them ‘beyond control’ when behavioural problems have actually resulted from child abuse/neglect and family disruption. A study was undertaken in a juvenile justice institution in Nigeria to assess the adequacy of pre-incarceration parental care among adolescents that had been declared as ‘beyond parental control’. The study included 75 adolescent boys that had been declared as ‘beyond parental control’ and a comparison group of 144 matched school going boys. It examined self-reports received from the adolescent boys regarding their pre-incarceration family life and social circumstances, as well as the behavioural problems they had experienced. The findings indicate that adolescent boys who were declared as ‘beyond parental control’ had a significantly higher lifetime history of behavioural problems than the comparison group, and they also had significantly higher indicators of pre-incarceration child abuse/neglect and problems with stability and consistency of primary support. These findings pose questions regarding the presumption of adequate parental care prior to the declaration of ‘beyond parental control’. It also raises questions about child rights protection and juvenile justice reform in Nigeria.     

中国城市社区居家养老服务模式比较研究——基于南京、大连、宁波、上海和兰州的分析

目前中国已进入老龄化社会,养老成为了一个社会问题。家庭养老和机构养老等方式已经不能满足老年人日益增长的需求,社区居家养老呈现了一定的优势。南京、大连、上海、宁波、兰州五个城市都在社区中开展了居家养老服务,但运行模式不尽相同,政府、社区、社会组织也有着不同的定位和分工。居家养老服务供给模式主要有三种:政府主办、层级联动,政府主导、中介运作,政府购买、民间组织承办。每种模式都各有利弊,只有明确参与各方的定位,动员社会力量参与,才能保证社区居家养老服务的效率和质量。     

数字化背景下老年友好社区构建策略——基于杭州市K街道N社区的调查

近年来,我国数字城市、5G运用、未来社区建设的推进,改变了老年人的社区养老环境,老年友好社区作为我国社区研究中的一个重要组成部分,亟待对其在数字城市背景下的构建内容、实践与评估、发展趋势开展深入探究。本研究通过对杭州市K街道N社区数字化背景下的老年友好社区构建的满意度调查,分析了数字化背景下的老年友好社区构建与老年人日常生活的关系、与原居养老的关系、与代际互动的关系以及融入的意愿度,认为这是老年友好社区的构建内容从单一的物质环境向多维度转变、构建主体由政府单一型向老年人参与及多主体合作型转变,探索形成良好代际互动的全龄社区的内在机制。

‘There is such a shelter in each other’: women looking for homes in Zadie Smith's White Teeth,On Beauty and NW

ABSTRACT

This paper focuses on the different ways in which home is experienced by the female characters of the diaspora in Zadie Smith's White Teeth (2000), On Beauty (2006) and NW (2013). In On Beauty, one of the characters declares: ‘There is such a shelter in each other’ (93). This implies that the sense of home may not be tied to a place, but to the intimacy of relationships. In these novels, Zadie Smith portrays women whose feelings of belonging to a place are threatened, due to their geographical displacements or to their complex transcultural identities. Using Deleuze and Guattari's concepts of territorialization and reterritorialization, I’ll explore how concepts of home and diaspora are reconfigured in Smith's novels.     

中国式养老：城市社区居家养老研究

文章探讨了托老服务“叫好不叫座”现象背后的原因，总结了“虚拟养老院”成功的经验、特点和优势，分析了专业养老社区的成败、利弊以及社区服务的类别、作用和方向。文章认为养老的服务职能社会化、服务地点社区化、服务机制市场化和服务联结网络化是打破我国养老困局的基本路向。社区养老的市场化和产业化主体属于社会企业，其发展不能离开“养老事业高于养老产业”“养老福祉高于养老利润”和“养老的社会效益高于养老的经济效益”三个前提。未富先老、未备先老的中国要探索有本土特色的“低成本-高品质-广福祉”的依托社区、整合资源的现代化养老方式，即通过社区养老、助老服务实现多数老年人的“在地老化”之梦--安养、乐活和善终。
