关于“华侨华人与国际关系”的再思考

复杂多变的国际政治生态不断地丰富和改变着＂华侨华人与国际关系＂的内涵,特别是国际关系思想的功利主义化和行政化进程,促使＂华侨华人与国际关系＂的内涵日益融入不同层次的公共政策之中。论文借用国际关系的层次分析法,从国际体系和民族国家两个层次对＂华侨华人与国际关系＂命题的内涵进行了学理性的建构,分析了华侨华人因素在当代国际关系结构中的属性,强调了设计华侨华人战略对中国外交和中国崛起的价值和意义,同时针对华侨华人未来国际化民族取向观发表了自己的看法,认为大多数华人不能也没有条件选择国际化,他们仍将生活在民族国家之中,只能选择追求平等公民政治权利的多元社会生活。     

跨国教育流动中的刻板印象与身份建构——以在美中国留学生为例

伴随在美中国留学生群体的不断扩大,中国留学生在美国社会中的体验和经历备受关注。本文主要通过深度访谈,了解在美中国留学生与美国本土社会及国内社会的互动,及互动对其塑造社会认同的影响。研究发现,来自美国社会的刻板印象一方面阻碍了该群体的深度融入,另一方面造成了中国留学生群体的“自我规训”,使该群体对于美国社会产生一定的疏离感。此外,在教育流动的过程中,留学生增强了其国家认同,中国人身份和留学生身份处于共生共荣的关系。然而,来自“群体内”的刻板印象增加了留学生群体社会认同建构的不确定性。因此,在美中国留学生群体的身份建构是一个动态的过程,并在“人一人”和“人一地”的互动不断发展和变化。     

Intergenerational Inequality? Labour,Capital, and Housing Through the Ages

This article examines the relevance of generational relations to emerging patterns of inequality in advanced capitalist societies, with a particular focus on inequalities related to housing wealth. At its heart is a critique of the increasingly prevalent argument that generational difference is a crucial axis of inequality today. It argues that while contemporary capitalist societies are certainly characterized by marked inequalities between generations and that the latter are manifested inter alia in housing ownership, understanding such inequalities principally in generational terms is problematic because they reflect deeper, more fundamental, structural inequalities and should therefore be conceptualized as such. The article suggests that the principal significance of generational relations to contemporary inequality dynamics actually concerns economic transfers rather than differences between generations. Within‐family transfers of wealth, especially housing‐related wealth, from older generations to younger ones tend to reproduce pronounced, structurally generated existing patterns of intra‐generational inequality.     

Emer Martin and multimodal family dysfunction: More Bread or I’ll Appear (1999)

Emer Martin’s More Bread or I’ll Appear (1999) revisits the discourse of the family in Ireland between the 1970s and the 1990s. This article contends that Martin intersects her work with family “issues” of the day so as to accommodate the representation of what can be termed as multimodal family dysfunction. She provides insights to the role of women, family and global female diaspora. This paper draws upon work by Diarmaid Ferriter, Alpha Connelly and the tenets of transnational feminism to account for the historical, ideological and sociocultural contexts of the time. For Martin, dysfunction is multimodal in the way in which the Irish family portrayed faces real “hidden issues” from different discourses. Her novel also focuses on the “wounds” that have been the effect of abuse, secrets, appearances, violence and lack of communication within the family. Another mode of Martin’s representation of dysfunction considers the transnational experiences of her female characters on the margins of an Ireland becoming global. Her novel invokes transnational perspectives so as to commit to dislodging nation-centric and family-centric visions of Ireland.     

“侨乡社会资本”解读：以当代福建跨境移民潮为例

本文以当代福建跨境移民潮为研究实例,提出并梳理"侨乡社会资本"命题的理论意义,力图赋予侨乡文化以新的理论视角.本文提出跨国民间网络是侨乡社会资本的基本载体,跨国互惠期望是侨乡社会资本的运作机制,跨国链接增殖是侨乡社会资本的效益特性.侨乡通过已定居移民、信息网络和人情互惠提高移民操作的成功率及获益率的能力,是一种社会资本.这种资本有望转化为经济资本、文化资本乃至政治资本,但这种转化只有在如愿跨境输出人力资源的条件下才能实现.侨乡社会资本的特殊性体现在它与发达国家劳动力市场的链接,其效益通过其投资对象--"移民"进入发达国家劳动力市场而实现转换与增值.当移民作为一种投资途径并且存在有效运作空间时,移民行为必然生生不息,而侨乡社会资本正是通过一次次诸如此类的跨国运作不断增殖.     

Is Australia a middle power? A systemic impact approach

This article examines whether Australia is a middle power. It identifies the three most popular approaches to defining a middle power: by a country's position, behaviour and identity. The article tests each definition against Australia, highlighting the strengths and weaknesses of each. Highlighting an earlier systemic approach to defining states, an alternative ‘systemic impact’ definition for middle powers is proposed. This approach, it is argued, provides a more comprehensive manner for identifying whether a country like Australia is a middle power, along with the implications for international security.     

美国加州圣地亚哥华人专业技术新移民的跨国认同调查与研究——移民跨国认同的个案分析

论文以美国加州圣地亚哥中国大陆的专业技术新移民为个案,通过问卷形式,从双语能力、认同类型、文化保持与文化适应、跨国活动和跨国倾向等方面对受访的华人群体进行了调查。通过对调查结果的梳理分析,得出三点结论:一是大部分受访者具有较强的中英双语能力,这既是其高度融入美国主流社会的基础,也是其较强文化适应程度的表现;二是在受访的华人群体中,规律性、经常性的跨国活动并不明显,但其跨国认同度较高;三是在受访的华人群体中,跨国认同是一个多层次、多类型的结合体,它既包括以中国人的族裔认同为主、美国人的国家认同为次的双重认同,也包括混杂性的中美双文化认同。     

新华侨华人与民间关系发展——以中国-新加坡民间关系为例

以新加坡的中国大陆新移民为视点,在民间关系研究的框架内,探讨和阐述了新华侨华人和跨国华人的概念特征、新华侨华人与中—新民间关系的发展、海外民间关系发展的时代价值以及民间关系的模式特征和意义。研究显示,国家关系的建立,为民间关系打开了交流和交往的正式而广泛的渠道;民间关系的良性互动,为国家关系的改善、发展和地区关系的整合,奠定了厚实的民间基础;跨国移民之于民间关系、国家关系和地区关系的多元探寻,为全球化时代的移民个人和国家关系的发展,提供了双赢互利的方向。     

关系邻近性视角下的海外华商与侨乡经济——以改革开放后广东潮汕地区为例

论文以传统侨乡潮汕地区改革开放40年来的产业经济发展进程为例,借助经济地理学中关于"邻近性"与全球化区域发展理论的前沿研究,通过比较海外华商在侨乡经济发展不同阶段扮演的角色,探究了海外华商影响侨乡经济的机制。研究发现,与海外华商建立的关系邻近性,曾经是侨乡嵌入全球生产网络的关键,为侨乡带来外资并引领了出口型经济。20世纪90年代中期以后,海外华商对潮汕地区产业发展的影响从重要到式微,反映了关系邻近性可能为其他类型的邻近性所取代。近年来,潮汕地区出现的新现象,则暗示关系邻近性有重新发挥作用的潜力。全面理解华侨华人对中国区域经济的动态影响,需要我们跳出"侨乡"的局限,从全球化以及区域发展的角度加以解读。     

日本中华总商会——以“新华侨”为主体的跨国华人经济社团

论文对日本中华总商会成立的背景、过程、组织活动、会员及其企业等方面进行了考察。认为日本中华总商会既不像传统的中华总商会那样具有帮群结构的基础,也不是华人社会的自治组织,而是具有显著的跨族群、跨地域与跨国界特征。20世纪80年代以来在日中国人社会的急剧扩大,以及同时期中日经贸关系的紧密是该团体成立和发展的直接契机。随着大批日本企业加盟、侨资和中资企业的对日收购、以及企业对市场、资金、人才与技术等资源的整合与调配,华商与非华商的界限也已不再分明。不过,华商资源和中日之间的经贸往来仍然是其跨国网络最重要的支点。     

国际资本流动研究评述

资本流动研究是90年代以来区域经济地理学前沿的研究热点之一,本文通过经济学与地理学在国际资本流动研究方面的比较,指出了目前经济地理学研究中存在的问题,并建议加强资本流入的负面影响研究,外资流入的适度规模研究,资本流动过程研究和动力机制研究。     

‘Buy and promote the national cause’: consumption,class formation and nationalism in Mandate Palestinian society1

ABSTRACT. This article deals with patterns of consumption and of advertisement, as a field for the analysis of two major processes in the Palestinian society of Mandate Palestine: the growth of an urban middle class and the consolidation of the Palestinian national movement. The advertisements, sampled from the popular daily paper Filastin, analysed in the context of political and economic events, highlight the complex interplay between nationalism and class formation, and the contradictory tensions between the two processes. A smaller sampling in al‐Difa' points to similar, though not identical, trends. This analysis also highlights new dimensions of the Jewish–Arab conflict by drawing attention to the semi‐private sphere of consumption which appears to have been less segregated than the more often studied political and economic spheres.     

清末民初留日医学生报刊传播西医活动述论

文章以留日医学生报刊为中心,对清末民初留日医学生传播西医活动进行梳理,在此基础上努力复原留日医学生＂学医＂和＂传医＂活动的真实面貌,进而管窥留日医学生及其创办的报刊在中国近代西医传播史上的重要地位。清末民初,大批爱国志士心怀医学救国之梦,东渡日本学习现代医学,标志着国人被动接受西医的终结。赴日医学生组织学会,创办报刊,致力于德日派西医体系的传播。德日派西医在中国现代医学史上虽然没有英美派西医的影响力大,但是也为中国医学的近现代转型做出重大贡献。赴日留学生报刊对开启民智,振奋民族精神发挥了不可低估的作用。
