蒙藏关系下的文化变迁和民族认同——以青海省河南蒙古族为例

青海省河南蒙古族与藏族交错而居,两个民族长期相互接触,由于族体规模上的差异和自然条件的原因,在文化传播中主要表现为蒙古族对藏族文化的采借和适应,以致从外部特征似难将当地蒙古族从藏族中分辨出来。但细加考察,蒙古族的客观认同和主观心理归属感仍然清晰可见。在融洽的民族关系中,蒙藏之间仍然保持着融而未合、和而未同的特点。

云南回族的他称--"潘塞"、"潘西"和"帕西"辨析

历史上云南回族马帮商人在云南境内外各条商道上不绝于途,不少人还定居缅甸和泰国.缅族称云南回族为"潘塞"(旧译"潘泰"),掸族称之为"潘西".在国内,西双版纳傣族称回族为"帕西".海外学者对缅语"潘塞"一词的语源争议不休,众说纷纭.本文论述提出(一)"潘塞"、"潘西"和"帕西"原为印度、缅甸一带民间对穆斯林的泛称,尔后用以称呼云南回族,三者系同一名词,仅读音有微小差异;(二)三者均由中世纪以来印度民间称呼波斯人的"帕尔西"(Patsi)一词演变而来.     

郑和航海与穆斯林文化

15世纪,中国明代的郑和七下西洋是政府行为,影响广远。郑和与其从官马欢系穆斯林出身,遂使郑和航海得益于穆斯林文化。由于马欢通晓阿拉伯语、波斯语等穆斯林国家的语言,因此,郑和一行同中国南海与印度洋沿岸上的各国穆斯林进行了较为广泛的交流,对明代中国认识了解当地的民族及其迁徙、宗教生活与民俗、物产与经济提供了真实的情况。这对中国与不同文化底蕴的其他国家日后和平交往,奠定了良好的基础。本文拟借纪念郑和航海600周年之机,讲一下穆斯林文化与郑和航海的密切关系,兼及郑和航海史料的研究、整理。

Leveraging the common and outsourcing the distinct: institutional difference and multinational company identity in emerging economies

ABSTRACT

This paper explores the challenges of outsidership faced by multinational companies (MNCs) accessing emerging economies. The paper departs from popular conceptualisations of culture drawing instead on social identity theory as part of an institutions-based view, to explain how employing a singularities approach can allow the identification of commonalities of Indianness and Australianness that can be leveraged to ameliorate negative socially embedded business norms that pose a challenge to MNC success in emerging economies. This study shows that despite recognised formal (regulatory) and informal (cultural) differences, managers of Australian MNCs operating in India were able to innovatively identify and exploit cultural commonalties/singularities to ease cultural adjustment and mitigate intergroup conflict, allowing them to achieve an innovative institutional fit. The paper discusses how, using this approach, sole-venture MNCs can access many of the benefits provided by collaborative entry modes while preserving MNC identity. We further propose that the singularities approach can provide a valuable starting point to develop culturally appropriate competence training initiatives.     

Education,identity, and ideology: the Islamic movement and Moslem religious education in Israel

The Islamic Movement, which is called in Arabic Al-harakaat al-islamiyya or Al-haraka al-islamiyya, has, since its foundation in the 1970s, placed emphasis on education, especially the dissemination of the Islamic message. After the movement scored significant successes in local authority elections, its influence increased on the ideological guidelines according to which some of the Arab education system is partially or fully shaped. The article discusses the split in the movement within the State of Israel, and the differences between the southern and northern faction. It also compares Islamic education and Arab education within Israel and abroad in Europe, in countries which have large immigrant Moslem populations.

The education system that the Islamic Movement tries to develop symbolizes the complexity of the relations between it and the state authorities. They are aware that the authorities will not help in differentiation and separation and will not cease from the constant supervision of the movement's educational institutions. Therefore, their choice of a synthesis between formal and informal education or of a partition between pedagogic state education and moral study classes, is a rational, calculated choice, taking into consideration the reality of a cultural – ethnic – national minority.
