ABSTRACTThis article explores the experiences and emotions of children in rural East Lombok, Indonesia, who stay behind with relatives or neighbours while their parents leave the country for work. The article contributes to recent scholarship of children’s experiences of transnational migration in Southeast Asia by drawing out the complex emotions of children who stay behind. Based on research conducted in four ‘sending’ villages, the article describes children’s lived experiences of their parent’s transnational migration, and their intense feelings that whether they ‘like it or don’t like it’, they have no choice but to acquiesce to their parents’ long, often indeterminate absences. The research suggests that stay-behind children are entangled in community anxieties pervading the emotional economy of transnational migration, including the embodied emotion of shame (malu) which shapes children’s responses to parental absence. By focusing on children’s own views and experiences, we contribute to growing debates about the implications of migration for children’s rights and well-being in Southeast Asia. 相似文献

This paper explores rural young people's perceptions of their local environments in relation to their experiences with physical activities through the use of visual methodologies. The main findings from map, photo and interview data from 13 rural young Australians included the importance of friends, family, and gender structures which are discussed in relation to developing a sense of place and how this shapes their experience in physical activities. The findings highlight the importance of sociocultural issues and raises questions regarding measuring physical activity prompting further qualitative research to inform sustainable and equitable physical activity promotion initiatives for rural young people. 相似文献

Stable carbon and oxygen isotope values (δ13C, δ18O) were obtained for structural carbonate in the bioapatite of archaeological bones from Guatemala and Sudan using several common analytical methods. For the Sudan samples, the different methods produced δ13C values within ±0.1‰ and δ18O values within ±0.7‰, on average. The isotopic results for the Guatemala samples were similar in reproducibility to the Sudan samples when obtained using methods that employed lower reaction temperatures and reactions in sealed vessels. However, many Guatemala samples had highly variable and extremely low δ18O values when reacted at higher temperatures in vessels that remained open to cryogenic traps. The latter arrangement caused reaction products to be removed immediately upon their production. The anomalously low δ18O values are related to the production of a contaminant gas that causes the m/z 46/44 ratio to be lowered, either by adding to the m/z 44 peak or subtracting from the m/z 46 peak. That said, potential contaminant materials were not detectable in “anomalous” bones using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction, or inductively-coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. However, subtle structural and chemical differences between “normal” and “anomalous” samples were observed, most notably in the FTIR ν2 CO3 domain. We suggest that these changes promote volatilization of an oxyphosphorus compound and oxygen isotope fractionation between PO− derived from this compound and CO2 derived from bone carbonate. Production of the contaminant gas and the related “anomalous” δ18O values is reversible if the reaction occurs within a sealed vessel for a sufficient period of time, which allows a “back-reaction” to occur. 相似文献

The ‘improvement’ of sheep (Ovis aries) in southern Britain during the post-medieval period is examined using measurements taken on the metacarpals and metatarsals from the late 18th to 19th centuries AD site of Tumbling Fields, Tiverton, Devon. This data set is a rare and important metric archive from which is derived information on the conformation (size and shape) of sheep. Comparisons are presented from other medieval and post-medieval sites, which demonstrate that Tumbling Fields is comparable to other sites of a similar period. The comparisons presented also reveal temporal variation with bones from later sites being taller and more robust on average than those from earlier sites. In addition, the abnormalities of sheep (O. aries) metapodia are examined. In particular, two different conditions are discussed: small, oval cavities in the proximal articulation of the metacarpals, and a ridge of bone on the proximal anterior shaft of the metatarsals. Comparisons are presented from other medieval and post-medieval sites, and potential aetiologies are discussed. 相似文献

A number of case studies of NGO projects have suggested that NGOs may have an important role to play in addressing environmental problems in developing countries. Drawing on research conducted in Zimbabwe, this analysis seeks to broaden and contextualize the discussion of NGO involvement in sustainable development initiatives. It reviews the theoretical basis for the current emphasis on NGOs, assesses the environmental problems in Zimbabwe within their historical and social contexts, and summarizes the findings of recent research on the characteristics of the NGO sector in the country. The purpose is not to evaluate specific NGO environment projects, but rather to assess the mechanisms through which the NGO sector as a whole might make a significant contribution to sustainable development, and the problems in doing so. It is argued that one major obstacle faced by NGOs is the demand made upon them to find simple, neat and comprehensive solutions to complex development problems. The tendency on the part of donors and NGO supporters to expect success stories is called here the ‘magic bullet syndrome’, and it is argued that this emphasis on simplicity and on success is unrealistic and counterproductive. 相似文献
