“阶层固化”现象下大学生的生命诉求

大学生对于"阶层固化"现象尤为关注。因为"阶层固化"使一些没有家庭背景和社会关系的大学生拼不过权力,拼不过资本,拼不过"关系",容易使其产生消极、无奈、绝望的生命困惑。所以,呼吁科学合理的制度构建,期待以人为本的生命教育,打造德才兼备的全新自我是"阶层固化"现象下大学生的生命诉求。     

CDIO模式下C语言教学项目专业化研究

社会的不断发展对研究生的综合素质提出了更高的要求,高层次复合型人才已经成为研究生培养必须实现的目标,但是我国大多数理工科院校的研究生英语课堂教学重理论、轻实践、重讲授、轻参与、重知识、轻创新的情况严重影响了学生的学习热情及教学效果,迫切需要改革。CDIO工程教育理念以项目训练为载体设置课程和教学模式,强调以学生为中心,符合现代工程技术人才培养的一般规律,文章论述了在CDIO工程教育理念的指导下,在研究生英语课堂教学模式上的一次尝试,为工科院校研究生英语课堂教学新模式的探索提供新的思路。     

文化自觉：照亮中国基础教育理性化阴影之灯

中国传统基础教育以私塾为形式,人文性的四书五经为其内容。清末民初,私塾为理性化的班级授课制所取代,这是理性在教育领域的第一次胜利;近十年来,基础教育集中于乡镇以上学校,村小学被拆并,乡镇初中日渐缩减,农村教育资源被抽空,这是理性在教育领域的进一步扩张。理性化带有形式合理而实质不合理的悖论特质。基础教育之理性化带来高效益的同时,也导致文化意识与价值观念越来越淡漠。目前,较为富强的中国社会也越发意识到,文化归宿之于中国人安身立命以及社会的可持续发展的价值所在。克服教育理性化阴影,在于文化的再植入。故而,面对教育理性化,亟待嵌入文化意识,须将本土文化嵌入基础教育之中以避免教育的无根性。     

Class, gender and time poverty: a time-use analysis of British workers' free time resources

Free time, that is, the time that remains at one's own discretion after conducting daily work and personal care activities, has been previously recognized as a 'primary good' and an important welfare resource that provides opportunities for participation in social life and leisure. However, recent years have witnessed an increasing preoccupation with the phenomenon of time poverty, drawing attention to the distribution of free time and its relationship to structural and family circumstances. In this article we propose a novel approach to the measurement of time poverty and document its occurrence amongst British workers. In line with previous literature, a conceptualization of time poverty as a relative lack of free time resources vis-à-vis other members of the community is adopted. However, unlike previous empirical studies, we investigate the differential configuration of time poverty on weekdays and weekend days, alongside indicators of the quality of free time, taking into account insights from theoretical and empirical work within the field of the sociology of time. Our analysis of the 2000 UK Time Use Survey highlights class and gender inequalities that have been missed by previous measurement approaches and demonstrates that, overall, working women experience multiple and more severe free time constraints, which may constitute an additional barrier for their leisure and social participation.     

Repelling the “Rutter”: Social Differentiation Among Rural Teenagers

This paper examines low‐income white rural teenagers' management of race and class‐based inequality. It analyzes how these teenagers constructed boundaries to distinguish themselves from outsiders, but also to distinguish themselves from the local abject category of “rutter.” The findings reveal hidden interconnections between race and class in interactional practice, and highlight local processes of differentiation through which actors attempt to deflect stigma and attain credibility. The paper discusses how interactional mechanisms such as “internal othering” and “stigma‐theory” bolster race and class credibility, but reproduce inequality.     

Yearning for faraway places: the construction of migration desires among young and educated Bangladeshis in Dhaka

These days, the imagined destinations of ever more people, particularly in the ‘global South’, are not where they were born but elsewhere. Using a case study of educated (lower) middle-class youth in Dhaka, this paper attempts to demonstrate that for many ‘aspiring migrants’, the yearning for leaving is a metaphor for disappointment and disengagement rather than the first step towards transnational migration. Economic growth, rapid urbanisation and the increasing investment in education infest the emerging urban (lower) middle-class youth with new ‘modern’ lifestyle desires that cannot be fulfilled in their home country and generate a sense of disengagement with Bangladesh. The paper focuses in particular on how the – culturally embedded – imaginations of foreign places link up to personal (re-)evaluations of local lives. Nearly all informants explained how local socio-economic, political and existential insecurities made them yearn for ‘safe’ places where their dreams could be fulfilled.     

Looking for homogeneous groups of respondents and nonrespondents using latent class analysis

Concerns about decreasing response rates have led to many nonresponse studies. Unfortunately, usually only a limited amount of data is available on nonrespondents. Linking administrative data makes information available on all the sampled units including nonrespondents. Statistics Netherlands has constructed a database in which several administrative records and several surveys are connected. In this explorative study we use this dataset to look for homogenous groups of respondents and nonrespondents in survey research using latent class cluster analysis. Latent class techniques can provide insight into the problem of selective nonresponse and currently under-represented societal groups. We identify four different latent classes in a recent Dutch survey and replicate the findings for the same survey conducted 4 years later. Two of the types of sampled units have above-average response rates and the other two have below-average response rates. We also evaluate various latent class models with other response outcomes to gain insight into the contact and cooperation process.

Being a desirable migrant: perception and racialisation of Icelandic migrants in Norway

In the aftermath of the financial crisis that hit Iceland in October 2008, increased numbers of Icelanders migrated to Norway to seek employment due to difficult economic circumstances in Iceland. Using critical perspectives from postcolonial studies and critical whiteness studies, the paper explores how these Icelandic migrants in Norway make sense of their new position as economic migrants within a global economy characterised by a growing sense of precariousness, while past inequalities and racism continue to matter. We also examine how these migrants are perceived in Norwegian media, and how social discourses of Icelandic migrants reflect larger Norwegian debates on racism, desirability and cultural belonging. Media discourses in Norway and interviews with Icelandic migrants reveal a hierarchy of acceptability of migrants. Icelanders are positioned as highly desirable compared to other migrant groups due to the intersection of perceived racial belonging, nationality and class. Our discussion contributes, furthermore, towards a critical analysis of the category migrant, by exploring how the term immigrant (innvandrer/innflytjandi) is used in narratives of Icelandic migrants in Norway and in Norwegian media discussions, showing the negative and racialised connotations of the term immigrant and how its understanding is linked with vulnerable positions and discrimination.
