Just Like in Their Home Country? A Multinational Perspective on Living Arrangements of Older Immigrants in the United States

Older immigrants are more likely to share residence with their adult children and other family members than are U.S.-born older adults. Because socioeconomic factors only partially explain these differences and direct measures of cultural preferences are seldom available, the persistently high rates of intergenerational coresidence among the older foreign-born are often interpreted as driven by cultural preferences and/or a lack of assimilation. To challenge this interpretation, this study investigates the extent to which older immigrants’ living arrangements deviate from those of older adults in their home countries. The analysis combines data on immigrants from the 2008–2012 American Community Survey (ACS) with census data from three major immigrant-sending countries: Mexico, the Dominican Republic, and Vietnam. Despite persistent differences from U.S.-born whites, coresidence in later life is significantly less common than in the sending countries among the older foreign-born who migrated as young adults, and especially among those who migrated as children. The older foreign-born who migrated after age 50, however, are more likely to coreside and less likely to live independently than the older adults in their home countries. The similarity of these patterns across the three immigrant subgroups suggests that the unusually high coresidence among late-life immigrants is driven by U.S. family reunification policy and not simply by cultural influences.     

The classing gaze and its gendering effects: (dis)‐respectability,emotional (in)‐competency,and the counselling experiences of domestically violent Taiwanese men

Research on domestically violent men typically takes an oppositional logic of gender. While the significance of class in researching domestically violent men is identified, class and gender are often treated as separate entities that do not complicate each other. Drawing upon group observations and in‐depth interviews, this paper identifies how intersections of class and gender manifest in the counselling experiences of domestically violent Taiwanese men. From a Bourdieusian feminist analysis, the authors analyse (1) how class distinctions serve to (re)produce gendered hierarchy; (2) how contradictory experiences of gender reveal a relational understanding of class; and (3) how the gendered nature of domestically violent men is inscribed with a meaning of (working) class specificity for maintaining middle‐class ‘purity’. In analysing men's multiple and conflicting experiences, this paper contributes to research on domestically violent men by showing how class and gender are actively constructed and not produced in a monolithic/invariant way.     

人才聚集过程中知识粘性消减策略研究

人才聚集的关键是知识转移,在人才聚集过程中,知识粘性是影响知识转移绩效的重要变量。从人才聚集和知识转移的联系出发,人才聚集主体、知识特性和聚集环境是知识粘性形成的主要因素。为此,组织可以通过建立有效的激励机制,建立促进知识转移的信息体系,运用知识挖掘和反求工程及技术共享平台降低知识粘度,营造便捷的人才流动机制和组织学习环境,促进知识流动,实现知识有效管理。     

高校开展港澳区情教育的价值体认及策略

加强内地高校大学生对港澳区情教育消弭两地文化壁垒,舒缓心理认知偏见,促进两地高校交流与合作,理应成为我国国情教育的题中之义。截至目前,内地高校尚未系统将港澳区情教育纳入我国国情教育范畴,这不仅反映出我国国情教育的滞后性,并由此带来一系列问题。该文就此问题对高校开展港澳区情教育的价值体认和策略进行了探讨。     

试论“猺”、民、汉的演变——地方和家族历史中的族群标签

广西大藤峡地区在明代以猺乱频繁而闻名。明中期,桂西土司狼兵进入当地平乱,明政府安插教化,形成了猺、獞、狼、民等族类共存的格局。清朝,隨着国家正统文化秩序确立,土著通过创建宗族等方式建构祖先的士大夫形象。现今该地区被称为猺、獞、狼者已踪影难觅,取而代之者是被认定为汉族的人群,大多族谱也称祖先来自广东。族群标签及族谱编撰的背后,呈现的是地方社会变迁与国家秩序建立的复杂历史过程。本文以大藤峡地区崇姜里人群的身份变化为个案来揭示此过程。     

明末至清中叶白山派发展述略

本文首先考察了玛哈图木·阿杂木其人其事与白山派的关系,其次着重探讨白山派的早期沿革史,重点放在阿帕克和卓以前的历史活动上.因这段历史比较模糊,易产生混乱,而阿帕克和卓以后的历史发展较清晰,且学术界作过不少研究,所以就这段历史略加叙述.     

民族自治地方政策制定过程中的族际政治互动分析

在利益分化渐趋深入特别是各民族间的利益差异越发明显的情况下,以利益竞争为核心的族际政治互动在民族自治地方的政策制定过程中日益凸显出来,并产生了广泛而深刻的影响.同时,族际政治互动过程是存在着诸多问题的,随着族际政治互动的常态化发展,这些问题逐渐暴露出来.治理族际政治互动,就是要着力解决这些问题.相应地,能否最大限度地发挥族际政治互动的积极作用,消除其负面影响,也取决于这些问题的解决程度.     

School–work systems in postindustrial societies: Evidence from Japan

The Japanese system of school–work has been widely admired for the strong communication and recruitment relationships that exist between high schools and employers. We develop a framework for understanding the macro-level conditions that fostered the effectiveness of the system up until the early 1990s. These conditions included a stratified secondary educational system, a large supply of high-quality high school graduates, and high demand for young workers to fill entry-level positions in the internal labor markets of large firms. We use original data from a sample of urban high schools to analyze how Japanese employers’ recruitment patterns changed in the 1990s and beyond. The results of that analysis and a counterfactual analysis suggest that recent changes, especially in Japanese employment institutions, have significantly weakened high school–employer relationships. We suggest implications of the Japanese case for school–work processes in other postindustrial societies.     

信任缺失:新生代农民工身份建构与政治认同

新生代农民工城市融入的本质是新生代农民工与城市市民、城市社会组织及政治的互动与认同,这种互动与认同以信任为基础。其中人际信任、组织信任与政治信任分别构成新生代农民工身份建构的基础、融入城市的社会资本与政治认同的基础。由于当前社会人际信任缺失、组织信任匮乏与政治信任偏低,导致新生代农民工陷入身份建构与政治认同困境。因此只有通过修复新生代农民工的人际信任、增进其组织信任、重构政治信任方能构建起积极的身份认同。     

论民族习惯法的生活伦理特性

民族习惯法作为民族地区适用的民间法具有丰富的生活意蕴和伦理内涵,并表现出鲜明的生活伦理特性.主要体现在:与习惯法主体的民族性相对应,民族善恶观念表现出生活化多元性;与民族法渊源的习惯性相吻合,习惯法规范作用模式呈现出相对的封闭性;与民族习惯的法律化相联系,民族习惯法体现了丰富的道德生活属性.
