British Muslims: Past,Present and Future

Abstract: Around the European Union, the implication by large sections of society is that there is something intrinsically different about Islam that makes it difficult to integrate Muslims into European societies. Some of these sections of society are non‐Muslim, and are reluctant to allow such integration to take place; others are Muslim. These sentiments raise a number of issues relating to plural identities and their compatibility with modern day Europe and Islam, with such issues finding variable expressions in member‐states. The British example represents an illustrative case study, having a long history of interaction with Muslims and being the home of a large Muslim population. History bears witness that in terms of religious diversity, the U.K. was never a monolithic society based on a monoculture. From the Middle Ages until the beginning of the twentieth century, there is strong evidence to show that there was, at the least, British contact with Muslims. In Britain, just as all over Europe, Islam has a long lineage: “For British Muslims, the past does not have to be ‘another country.’”

朝鲜华侨教育的历史回顾

本文是在查阅有关文献和考察访问的基础上撰写而成的。 194 5年 8月日本投降以后 ,朝鲜华侨在中国共产党的领导和广大华侨知识分子的努力下 ,在朝鲜半岛北半部重新恢复和新建了华侨学校。这一时期 ,由于华侨教育得到了朝鲜政府的支持 ,朝鲜华侨学校发展很快。朝鲜战争的爆发使华侨教育受到严重破坏 ,但在中国政府的大力帮助下 ,大多数华侨学校仍能坚持上课。从 195 3年 7月停战到 196 6年 ,由于多方面的有利因素 ,朝鲜华侨教育进入了鼎盛时期。但其后 ,朝鲜政府按本国教育体制全面改造了华侨教育。从此 ,朝鲜华侨教育沿着“朝鲜化”发展。作者认为 ,当今的朝鲜华侨教育何去何从 ,到了应该考虑的时候了     

Decolonising Indonesia,Past and Present

ABSTRACT

In the pursuit of an “authentically Indonesian” nation-state, for decades Indonesians have denied the civil rights of fellow citizens for allegedly being less authentically Indonesian. A key to the longstanding efficacy of such exclusionary ethno-nationalism is the failure to recognise the trans-national solidarity that helped give birth to independent Indonesia. Such solidarity is best illustrated in the extraordinary case of the making in Australia of a documentary film, Indonesia Calling (1946). A starting point of this article is the proposition that Indonesia’s cultural politics of the past and its future is never free from a protracted battle over what the nation is allowed, or willing, or able to forget and remember from its past. Mere disclosure of Indonesia’s past history with its cosmopolitan features will not necessarily lead to changes for the better in contemporary Indonesia, especially if the new revelation runs counter to the interests of those in power. Nonetheless, no substantial and long-term change for the better is possible for Indonesia without serious, open, critical re-examination of the revolutionary making of the Republic, and due acknowledgment that inauthenticity, plurality and trans-national solidarity are the hallmarks of the process.

"厚今薄古":1958年历史学大跃进

1958年,随着哲学社会科学大跃进的开展,历史学大跃进兴起.不同身份的群体参与历史学大跃进,发挥着各自不同的作用.历史学大跃进的表现,主要有:"厚今薄古"成为历史学研究与教学的方针,历史学研究与教学重点转向近代现代史,制定跃进规划大搞历史科学研究,开展社会历史调查并倡导工农群众的历史书写,史学研究机构和学会掀起建设高潮.历史学大跃进过于强调史学为政治服务,过于夸大资产阶级史学的影响,看似高举马克思主义旗帜实则没有带来马克思主义史学的发展.热潮退却之后,史学界开始冷静反思并试图纠偏.当代中国马克思主义史学研究,既不要指望通过大跃进的方式来实现发展,又不能忽视马克思主义史学发展过程中的教训,而是要回到马克思主义史学研究本身,坚持马克思主义史学的学术自信,走不断创新之路.
