Self as enterprise: digital disability practices of entrepreneurship and employment in the wave of ‘Internet + disability’ in China

ABSTRACT

Situated in China’s neoliberal context and its rapid development of information communication technologies (ICTs), this study aimed to examine how disabled people in China transformed themselves into new self-enterprising subjects in the wave of ‘Internet?+?Disability.’ In order to answer this question, this study tried to develop an analytical framework to illustrate the disability practices that situated in the ICTs and neoliberal context, underpinned by the discourse of ‘self as enterprise,’ and demonstrated by the practices of entrepreneurship and employment. Based on the research design of case studies and methods that included ethnographic participant observation and in-depth interviews, this study explained how a disabled entrepreneur, Mr. Yuan, took advantage of the wave of ‘Internet?+?Disability’ to realize his dream of entrepreneurship and face the uncertainties of a precarious entrepreneurship. It also explained how Mr. Yuan’s employees achieved their dreams of employment but suffered the precariousness of enterprising subjects.     

Values and happiness among Asian adolescents: a cross-national study

Despite policy efforts to increase adolescent happiness, their impact has been unsatisfactory. Their limited impact may be rooted from a discrepancy between values that adolescents pursued and those that the policies were based on. To provide policy implications, our study aims to identify prevailing values for South Korean, Japanese, and Chinese adolescents and to examine the relationship between the values and self-rated happiness (SRH). A cross-sectional study was conducted using survey data collected on approximately 2000 middle and high school students (7th to 12th school grade) from each country in 2008. Firstly, an explanatory factor analysis was conducted to identify salient adolescent values from each country. Subsequently, a multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted for each population group to examine the relationship between the identified values and adolescent SRH after controlling for sociodemographic characteristics. We found that benevolence and altruism were positively associated with adolescent SRH in all three population groups. Patriarchy was associated with SRH positively in Chinese yet inversely in Japanese. Success pursuit was inversely associated with SRH in Korean. Policy efforts based on values of communities or social harmony may benefit adolescents’ SRH in these three countries.

影响中国化马克思主义吸引力的若干维度

中国化马克思主义吸引力,是指由中国化马克思主义呈现出的科学性、价值性和时代性以及在指导实践中产生的效用对广大人民群众产生的一种能够使其认同并自觉地遵循和实践的力量。但在深刻社会变革的当下,理论与现实实践的偏离,西方意识形态的渗透,社会转型中突出问题的挤压等状况的出现,弱化了中国化马克思主义的吸引力。深入分析这些因素,对增强理论吸引力、坚定理论自信、实现理论掌握群众,有重要意义。

杜文秀大理政权与刘道衡出使英国——兼对刘道衡《上英皇表》辨伪

刘道衡没有杜文秀大理政权授予的出使英国使节的正式委任状及大理政权正式授予的官员职衔,他不具有杜文秀大理政权委派的"使臣"的合法身份.划道衡所带交英国印度事务部的<上英皇表>不是从大理带出的,而是在缅甸形成的.其他说明献"大理所管之地"的图、"献土称臣"及要求出兵援助的信件,都是离开大理以后形成的,不具有杜文秀大理政权直接授权处理的合法依据.这些离开大理以后在云南以外形成的<上英皇表>及信件本身,不能证明刘道衡具有大理政权"使臣"的合法身份.诸种史实表明,刘道衡不是杜文秀派出的"使巨",他以杜文秀"义子"的身份充当杜文秀派往英国"使臣"的身份是假的,是他脱离柳映苍派出的以马似龙为首的使团后自封的.
