藏彝走廊中藏文化的影响与辐射

在文化分区的基础上,以宗教信仰为切入点,横向比较了藏文化在藏彝走廊各文化分区的具体表现和影响,并分析其影响藏彝走廊民族与文化格局的主要特点,指出藏文化在藏彝走廊具有跨民族或族群,乃至跨语支传播的总体趋向,存在着层次性和区域性的差异。不同民族或族群在将藏传佛教因素有机地融入本土宗教信仰中的同时,仍从宗教职业者构成、本土语言和宗教观念等层面坚守本土的宗教信仰。     

关于宗教、神话、风习与迷信诸问题

如何正确掌握宗教信仰自由政策韵尺度是当前宗教工作中存在的一个重要问题。有些地方,部分基层干部对迷信活动不闻不问,甚至亲自参加,认为这就是宗教信仰自由。也有些人由于不理解宗教信仰自由的政策,对一些正常的宗救活动干涉得过多。更多的则是由于分不清宗教活动与其他活动的区别,把宗教与风俗习惯、神话与迷信等混同看待,一律禁止,在国内外造或了不良影响。总之,由于弄不清它们之间的联系和区别,往往造成将宗教信仰自由政策的尺度放宽或缩小的现象,使党的政策得不到准确地贯彻执

民族地区新农村建设中必须高度重视宗教信仰问题

民族地区新农村建设必须高度重视宗教信仰问题。这主要基于民族地区多有浓郁的宗教信仰氛围与悠久的信仰历史,而现阶段民族地区农村的宗教活动现状与新农村建设的要求尚有一定的差距。另外,社会主义新农村建设必须吸收包括宗教文化在内的民族优秀传统文化,必须调动宗教人士和信教群众的力量。

百年来羌族宗教研究的回顾与反思

宗教现象是民族学者了解羌族文化的一个极重要的方面，对羌族宗教研究作回顾与反思有重要价值。二十世纪初，英国传教士、民族学者陶然士以传播论为依据，认为羌族是希伯来人的子孙后代和一神论者。三十年代，美国学者葛维汉以鲍亚斯的文化相对主义研究羌族宗教信仰，批评陶然士的观点。中国民族学家胡鉴民以功能论来论证羌族原始宗教是羌族文化的本质。从五十年代到现在，中国民族学者结合了欧美以及我国民族学的传统，对羌族宗教信仰进行研究，基本上与前辈一脉相承。不同之点，过去是筚路蓝缕，现在是日渐茁壮。胡鉴民认为宗教是“羌族文化中最可宝贵的一部分”的概念，促成了一种新形态的研究模式，其影响是深远的。学界对白石崇拜信仰研究已逐渐成为羌族研究里的显学。     

论古越民族与台湾原住民族的宗教认同

宗教认同是民族文化认同的核心内容之一,是民族认同的重要标识.民族间宗教认同的相似度越高,其民族的同源性就越强.通过比较古越民族与台湾原住民族在传说、典籍中所反映的宗教信仰,发现他们的宗教信仰非常相似,都表现为洪水神话、蛇生始祖的民族起源说和鸟神崇拜,可见古越民族与台湾原住民族在民族文化认同的根源上具有一脉相承性.     

认真贯彻执行党的宗教政策加强各民族的团结

我国是一个统一的多民族的国家,也是一个有多种宗教的国家。宗教在我国少数民族中有着很深的影响。有的宗教至今仍为某些少数民族的大多数群众所信仰,与广大少数民族群众的精神生活以及社会生活有着密切的联系。因此,正确地认识和处理宗教问题,全面贯彻执行宗教信仰自由政策,对于做好民族工作,维护祖国的统一,巩固和发展少数民族地区安定团结的政治局面,团结少数民族广大信教和不信教的群众,为建设现代化的、高度文明的、高度民主的社会主义强国而奋斗,有着重要的意义。     

Meeting / Derrida

In August 1999, Jacques Derrida gave a number of lectures and seminars in Melbourne and Sydney. The seminar of 13 August, held at Sydney's Seymour Centre Theatre, was open to the public. It consisted of a question-and-answer session with Genevieve Lloyd, David Wills, Paul Patton and Penelope Deutscher. Its title, 'Themes from Recent Work', reflected interests in the work from Specters of Marx (1994) onwards which some, including Paul Patton, have referred to as deconstruction in its affirmative phase. What follows is a by-no-means verbatim record of the event. Rather it is but one member of the audience's account of what transpired in the seminar – an account which is therefore necessarily selective and pressed through the grid of my own quasi-philosophical interests. Following this account of the seminar, I offer some marginal notes on the open discussion following the seminar, then, finally, some reflections on a particular matter discussed at the dinner which followed that – madness.     

Defining ‘real India’: representations of authenticity in independent travel

As an alternative to the stereotypical mass tourism, independent travellers – travellers who travel for extended periods on low budgets while ostensibly avoiding formalized tourist activities and locales – are invested in constructing ‘authentic’ travel experiences. Practices such as ‘off-the-beaten-track’ travel and cultural engagement provide the means by which independent travellers are able to make claims to such authenticity. Authenticity is constructed by travellers through idealizations of intimacy and non-commodification. These idealizations are tangled in narrative representations of ‘real’ India and ‘real’ Indians, their ‘real’-ness typified by an absence of other travellers, tourists and, more generally, Western contamination. In these ways, ‘authentic’ travel is dependent upon actively constructed binaries of Western travelling subjects and exotic Indian objects. Yet travellers' fantasies of the Other are fragile and subject to collapse at moments in which so-called Others articulate their subjectivity in a way that is inconsistent with travellers' expectations. Through a focus on travellers' narratives of their experience, both the requirement for an Orientalist dichotomy as well as the ruptures that continually challenge this dichotomy, will emerge.     

Oestrogen Rising 2016: Ireland’s stained and bloodied cloths

A weaver, seamstress, laundress and artist, in this essay I shall spin a yarn, tangle a web, and construct a text(ile) of the inter-weave of narrative and identity that I define as my intellectual, textual, somatic and material/visual practice obsessions. My work explores ‘the places in-between’ in the entanglements of Irish and Northern Irish gender and identity, and in the abject fabrics of death and of desire. As an Irish feminist, sense-making of the complexities, conundrums, challenges and contradictions of my land, my cloth, my body and my culture owes much to Irish women before me who fought for female suffrage, and Irish women now – north and south of the border that divides the island of Ireland – who still struggle for equality of citizenship, social justice, human rights, and full reproductive autonomy. My contention is that when we accept that Ireland herself is a many-layered cloth, a stained and bloodied cloth, a cloth marked irreversibly by history, conflict, denial and abuse, stained by its own repression, marked through denial of all its people’s rights and needs, and bloodied by its greatest export, the haemorrhage of its people, then – polemical, didactic or reflective, with more compassion, empathy, humility and heart – we just might make peace with our past.     

Refugees,migrants, neither,both: categorical fetishism and the politics of bounding in Europe’s ‘migration crisis’

The use of the categories ‘refugee’ and ‘migrant’ to differentiate between those on the move and the legitimacy, or otherwise, of their claims to international protection has featured strongly during Europe’s ‘migration crisis’ and has been used to justify policies of exclusion and containment. Drawing on interviews with 215 people who crossed the Mediterranean to Greece in 2015, our paper challenges this ‘categorical fetishism’, arguing that the dominant categories fail to capture adequately the complex relationship between political, social and economic drivers of migration or their shifting significance for individuals over time and space. As such it builds upon a substantial body of academic literature demonstrating a disjuncture between conceptual and policy categories and the lived experiences of those on the move. However, the paper is also critical of efforts to foreground or privilege ‘refugees’ over ‘migrants’ arguing that this reinforces rather than challenges the dichotomy’s faulty foundations. Rather those concerned about the use of categories to marginalise and exclude should explicitly engage with the politics of bounding, that is to say, the process by which categories are constructed, the purpose they serve and their consequences, in order to denaturalise their use as a mechanism to distinguish, divide and discriminate.

The changing configurations of self-(m)other dialogue in North Cyprus

This paper deals with issues of identity, nationalism, postcolonialism, and self-other relations with a focus on a period of transformative events in North Cyprus. It notes how nationalism has been the dominant means of identification for Cypriots in their modern history, and argues that unless weakened and supplanted by a radically pluralist democracy, nationalism imagines one's identity as an indivisible unity and has no place for different others within the nation. However, a pressing relationship with others and otherness is no stranger to Cypriots either, which makes it clear that the border that defines the ‘we’ of such nationalism is, at the same time, the line that divides the self intrinsically, indicating the otherness of the self or its alterity. Subjectivity involves subjection to the other.

Changing patterns of mobility,citizenship and conflict in Indonesia

ABSTRACT

Mobility and migration are inherent ingredients of Indonesian cultures. In an archipelago with thousands of islands of various size, character and nature, mobility is an important means to make a living and to survive by migration. The right to free movement in Indonesia is constitutionally granted. It can create mobility and give expression to equal citizenship rights at the same time as it can trigger the enforcement of borders among cultural groups and the ethnification of local and regional politics. Mobility thus always comes along with immobility. Physical mobility of one group of people might cause immobility of another group or it might create cultural and political immobility in the same group. In places such as Eastern Indonesia, people have developed reciprocal means to integrate newcomers. Whereas the immigrants are usually disadvantaged citizens with regards to land and customary rights, those living in the area for generations have nonetheless become integral parts of quite peaceful local settings, one way or the other. The advancement of decentralization, democratization and direct elections of political representatives can lead to political empowerment, the promotion of ethnicity as election capital and changing patterns of belonging. This paper illustrates these ambivalences by looking at mobility in Indonesia more generally and how changing national policies and laws lead to reinterpretations of mobility patterns and trigger changes in relations between local population groups and existing mechanisms of cultural and political inclusion and exclusion. Butonese migrants in Maluku will here serve as a case study.     

Governing multicultural Brussels: paradoxes of a multi-level,multi-cultural,multi-national urban anomaly

ABSTRACT

Updating our earlier work on Brussels as the paradigm of a multi-level, multi-cultural, multi-national city, and in the context of Brussels’s recent troubled emergence as the epicentre of violent conflict between radical political Islam and the West, this paper sets out the paradoxical intersection of national (i.e. Flemish and Francophone), non-national and ethnic minority politics in a city placed as a multi-cultural and multi-national ‘urban anomaly’ at the heart of linguistic struggle of the two dominant Belgian communities. Brussels is one of the three Regions of the Belgian federal model alongside Flanders and Wallonia. It is also an extraordinarily diverse and cosmopolitan city, in which a mixed language Belgian population lives alongside very high numbers of resident non-nationals, including European elites, other European immigrant workers, and immigrants from Africa and Asia. After laying out the complex distribution of power and competences within the Belgian federal structure, we explore whether these structures have worked over the years to include or exclude disadvantaged ethnic groups. To better understand these processes, we introduce our view of the multi-level governance perspective.
