昆明穆斯林社群:1274～2000

元代时,昆明已形成较大的穆斯林社群。在13世纪到19世纪的近六百年时间里,这一社群在昆明一直和平发展,最终形成"五坊"穆斯林社群的传统格局。然而,在19世纪中叶的"咸同事变"中,昆明穆斯林社群被完全摧毁。经历近一个世纪的发展,到20世纪50年代时,昆明穆斯林又重新恢复了传统的"五坊"格局。半个世纪之后,在各种现代性因素的作用下,昆明穆斯林社群传统格局最终解体。

Parental Expectations and Educational Outcomes for Young African American Adults: Do Household Assets Matter?

African American children are more likely to be poor and live in households that are “asset poor,” with no or very little net worth. Using the Panel Study of Income Dynamics and its Child Development Supplement, this article explores whether living in a household with net worth above the sample median seems to promote educational success and the development of human capital over time, irrespective of income. Controlling for parental income and education, as well as gender, household wealth in the form of net worth was the best predictor of parental expectations, high school completion, and college enrollment for young African American adults. A brief discussion of possible asset-building policy options follows.

Socioeconomic success of Asian immigrants in the United States

It was the aim of this study to explore the effects of social, cultural, and transnational factors on the socioeconomic success (SES) of Asian immigrants in the United States. The participants in this study were 1371 Chinese, Vietnamese, Filipinos, and other Asian immigrants who were interviewed with computer-assisted software in Mandarin, Cantonese, Tagalog, Vietnamese, and English. The subcategory ‘other Asians’ consisted of Koreans, Japanese, Asian Indians, and individuals of other Asian backgrounds. Results showed that Chinese had a 56% higher probability of SES than other Asians. Men had an approximately 49% higher probability of SES than women due to gender hierarchies and disparities. SES increases for every unit increase in English language proficiency, native language proficiency, social networks, and parental education. Asians who migrated to the United States between the ages of 18 and 34 have an approximately 102% higher chance of SES than a person who migrated after the age of 35.     

The ‘isolated ethnics’ and ‘everyday ethnics’: region,identity, and the second-generation Midwest Asian American experience

While studies have documented the Asian American experience in the past two decades, a dearth of research exists on those who grew up in the Midwest. How do Midwest Asian Americans experience their co-ethnic community, culture and pan-ethnic identity? Drawing from in-depth interviews of second-generation Midwest Asian Americans, an analysis of the data reveals two patterns of experiences, including: isolated ethnics and everyday ethnics. The findings are framed around issue of ‘access points’ to the co-ethnic community, and its influence on ethnic identity formation. This research highlights the importance of geographic community context on acculturation of Midwest Asian Americans.

国情、心态与政策——对唐宋元明清伊斯兰政策的若干思考

唐宋两朝政权与穆斯林群体基本上相互视为可在商业贸易和文化交流方面合作的“伙伴”与“朋友”,和平相处;元明两朝政权以半信半疑的心态对待穆斯林,双方很难将对方视为“伙伴”或“朋友”,至多互相认知为“对手”,在共同的社会环境中共存;清朝政权对伊斯兰教和穆斯林的态度前期与中后期不同,政策上也发生了明显的转变。中后期统治者对穆斯林充满疑虑,处处以防范的心态对待穆斯林。只要不明确对方的意图,双方都将对方视为难以和平相处的“敌人”,作出最坏的考虑。
