Negotiating social identities: The influence of gender,age and ethnicity on young people's ‘street careers’ in Tanzania

This paper explores the diverse ways that children and young people negotiate their social identities and construct their life course trajectories on the street, based on ethnographic research with street children in Tanzania. Drawing on the concept of a ‘street career’, I show how differences of age, gender and ethnicity intersect with the time spent on the street, to influence young people's livelihood strategies, use of public space, access to services, and adherence to cultural rites of passage. Using the notion of ‘gender performativity’, I analyse how young people actively reconfigure gender norms and the concept of ‘the family’ on the street.     

佛经文献与古代中外文化交流

佛经文献是我国历史文化宝库中的重要内容,在古代中外文化交流发展中占有独特的位置,主要体现在四个方面:佛经翻译对古代中外各民族文化的交流融合与传承发展起了极为重要的作用,丰富了中国古代文化内容;对佛经文献的需求推动了中外佛教文化的交流,通过中外僧侣往来和各种途径,使佛教文献大量流向海外,对我国与各国、各民族文化交流起到了促进作用;佛经文献经历代抄录刊刻,数量庞大,种类繁多,它为研究中国古代书籍制度的演化、文献的版本和目录的类型提供了佐证,极大地促进了中国古代图书事业的发展;佛经文献与印刷术的发明与传播有着密切关系,由于对佛经的大量需求的驱动而发明了印刷术,由于佛教的广泛传播使佛经文献与印刷术技术一起向海外流传。     

当代中国政治现代化的历程及基本经验

在中国共产党的领导下,新中国的政治现代化进程尽管发生过曲折,但的确取得了巨大进展。在经历了良好的开端、曲折发展、重大挫折、恢复与推进等发展阶段后,开创了社会主义市场经济体制下政治现代化的新局面。从这一历程可以看出中国的政治现代化进程不能脱离具体国情,而中国共产党的领导是根本的保障,必须以政治稳定为前提,正确处理西方文明成果、本国政治传统和政治现代化的关系。

Mapping geographies of Canadian colonial occupation: pathway analysis of murdered indigenous women and girls

This paper builds on scholarship within life course studies, particularly notions of pathway analysis, to demonstrate how such analysis can be combined with cartography in order to be applied to studies of missing and murdered indigenous women, as a means to better understand the geographies of violence they live and die in. In this sense, this work utilizes the theoretical underpinnings of pathways analysis but transforms it into an indigenized tool for narration and analysis, by linking the pathways studied with relationships to land, colonialism, and intergenerational violence. By telling the narratives of the women studied in this paper in this way, this paper demonstrates that the binaries that are frequently applied to missing and murdered indigenous women create popular knowledge on this violence that is not necessarily reflective of reality, and that when we look beyond or between these binaries, different patterns and sites of violence emerge.
