THE WORK OF (CREATING) ART

While engaging the process of artistic creation at the Creative Growth Art Center (CGAC) in San Francisco, California, Judith Scott produced numerous enigmatic three-dimensional fiber and mixed media sculpture pieces that subsequently received international attention. Approaching Scott's life and art from the perspective of Disability Studies – understood as an expressly political project – takes us beyond the limitations of the label of Art Brut/Outsider Art and of questions of artistic communication to properly situate her activities at the CGAC as work in both a social and economic sense. Judith's story – and her representation in a recent Spanish documentary film by directors Lola Barrera and Iñaki Peñafiel – suggests that in aspiring to achieve greater social and economic inclusion for such marginalized populations we must challenge the pervasive clinical paradigm that frames disability as lack and go further by cultivating sustainable, meaningful work experiences, such as that offered by the CGAC to people with developmental disabilities. Ultimately, creating art has the potential to be such a form of meaningful work.     

Political parties' perceptions and uses of anti‐Semitic conspiracy theories in Turkey

Despite its ever‐present and at times escalating significance, conspiracy theory is an under‐researched topic in the social sciences. This paper analyses the political influence of conspiracy theories by drawing on semi‐structured interviews with the representatives of four major political parties from the Turkish parliament about widespread anti‐Semitic conspiracy theories regarding Dönmes (converts). The findings indicate that right‐wing political parties problematize the secret character of the Dönme community and use the conspiracy theories to express their own ontological insecurities emerging from the Sèvres syndrome. Left‐wing and liberal parties conversely dissociate themselves from the conspiratorial rhetoric. The research concludes that the political parties reject or accept the conspiracy theories rationally and in alignment with their own ontological insecurities; by doing so, they pragmatically confirm their individual ideological perspective.     

The use of email‐facilitated interviewing with higher functioning autistic people participating in a grounded theory study

This paper explores the inclusive potential of computer‐mediated communication (CMC) for a ‘hard to reach’ group of research participants, specifically people at the higher functioning end of the autistic spectrum. Drawing on the literature pertaining to the fields of autism, CMC and research methods, as well as the first author’s experience of using email as a means of conducting interviews, the paper will discuss the epistemological, methodological and practical issues raised by the use of this method of collecting data from higher functioning autistic people, as well as its suitability in the context of a study guided by grounded theory.     

《伤逝》文化分裂症候分析

鲁迅先生的小说《伤逝》把较早接受西方文明思想的知识分子放在那个仍然被封建传统文化冰封的社会环境中,对他们的日常生活和精神追求进行冷静的思考,并加以灵魂的拷问,从而为我们提供了一个因文化分裂而导致的审美和日常生活相悖谬的范例。

A different head? Parental agency and early intervention

This paper considers the agency and identity of parents of children with Down syndrome within early intervention. It draws upon semi‐structured, conversational interviews with nine parents and the reflections of one of the authors upon their experiences within early intervention programmes. It considers how representations of the deficit model permeate the participation of the parent in this process. It explores the multiple identities of the parents and links these to notions of parental participation within the current policy context of early intervention in England. The notion of parental agency is an implicit driver within the current early intervention programmes, yet it appears to be compromised by the nature of those programmes.     

Non-parametric Maximum-Likelihood Estimation in a Semiparametric Mixture Model for Competing-Risks Data

Abstract.  This paper describes our studies on non-parametric maximum-likelihood estimators in a semiparametric mixture model for competing-risks data, in which proportional hazards models are specified for failure time models conditional on cause and a multinomial model is specified for the marginal distribution of cause conditional on covariates. We provide a verifiable identifiability condition and, based on it, establish an asymptotic profile likelihood theory for this model. We also provide efficient algorithms for the computation of the non-parametric maximum-likelihood estimate and its asymptotic variance. The success of this method is demonstrated in simulation studies and in the analysis of Taiwan severe acute respiratory syndrome data.     

梨状肌损伤综合征的治疗与康复训练研究

目的：探讨梨状肌损伤综合征的治疗与康复方法;方法：梨状肌损伤综合征患者28例,分成对照组14例和实验组14例,对照组行患侧推拿、一般康复训练,实验组行患侧臀部推拿、静力性牵拉、Thera-Band弹性阻力带康复训练,经30天各14次的治疗与康复训练,3个月后统计结果;结果：两组之间在疼痛程度、康复训练和梨状肌紧张试验三项呈显著性差异（p〈0.05）。对照组梨状肌紧张试验阴性21.42%、总有效率64.28%;实验组梨状肌紧张试验阴性71.42%、总有效率92.85%。结论：患侧臀部推拿、静力性牵拉、Thera-Band弹性阻力带康复训练,对梨状肌损伤综合征有显著疗效。     

翻译伦理观下的中国特色词汇翻译

翻译是一项积极的伦理交往活动。作为对翻译研究的文化转向,翻译伦理站在对翻译进行价值评判的角度,探寻差异性文化交流的最佳切合点,以达到文化交流中最大限度的沟通与理解。中国特色词汇承载着中国特定的历史与民族文化。文章结合切斯特曼的基本翻译伦理模式从四个方面探讨了中国特色词汇翻译中译者应遵循的伦理模式,为差异文化对话、互渗、共生道路的寻求做些尝试。
