Between business and morality: cultural politics in independent bookshops in China     

Zheng Liu 《Journal of Cultural Economy》2020,13(4):461-474

ABSTRACT

This article investigates how cultural businesses may facilitate contentious political activity in authoritarian contexts. Existing research in Western liberal democracies has shown the widespread political activism of actors in the cultural and creative industries. Whether such activism exists in authoritarian society, how it may differ in character and form, and what implications this will have for our understanding of relations between business, politics, and culture in authoritarian countries remain to be addressed. Drawing on data collected from 55 ‘independent bookshops’ in China, I illustrate how these organisations perform ‘cultural politics,’ a type of political participation in which actors employ mainly symbolic means to express social and political concerns. The organisations’ economic relations and conditions facilitate their efforts to create spaces in which contentious questions can be raised, sensitive topics explored, and alternative ideas expressed, despite the Chinese state’s political regulation of the cultural sphere. The finding of the economic embeddedness of cultural politics sheds new light on our understanding of the political economy of cultural businesses in contemporary China.  相似文献   

Professional mobilities in the creative industries: The role of “place” for young people aspiring for a creative career     

Caitriona Noonan 《Cultural Trends》2015,24(4):299-309

Within creative industries policy, two themes have been situated as central to the needs of the creative economy: the economic importance of place and the role of education in delivering a better-equipped workforce. However, these themes have rarely overlapped in either policy thinking or academic research, and so this article focuses on the relationship between place, education and professional aspirations for young people. Using the findings from qualitative interviews with media studies students within higher education (HE), this article analyses how the perceived attributes of some locations may provide industry credibility and the promise of enhanced professional mobility. It examines the tangible and symbolic value of place within young people's career development in the creative industries. The findings highlight how the links between place and education can influence the professional process, and how place shapes young people's perceptions of and opportunities for work in the creative industries. Finally, this research emphasises how current theories on creative industries policy and HE provision need to be extended to take greater account of the ways in which the attributes of localities can be used as a catalyst for individual professionalism amongst young people, and the ways in which certain places (mainly rural) may be disadvantaged in the current policy trajectory.  相似文献

曹大伟  曹连众 《沈阳体育学院学报》2020,(1):118-124

对我国校园足球文化建设中若干问题进行深入分析和探讨,揭示我国校园足球文化建设的内在逻辑关系,研究发现:1)我国校园足球文化建设与其所具有的游戏本质、教育属性和社会属性密不可分。2)育人目标窄化、育人主体导向偏失、人文精神缺乏导致了校园足球实施中教育本原的漠视;足球生存场域发生变化、工具化足球的演进、足球发展理念不定导致了校园畸形足球形态的盛行。研究认为我国校园足球发展应把握与社会发展协调一致原则,强调顶层设计与实际需求相互适应的指导思想,以及打造生活化的校园足球实践活动行动方案。  相似文献

English Proficiency,Identity, Anxiety,and Intergroup Attitudes: US Americans’ Perceptions of Chinese     

Makiko Imamura  Racheal A. Ruble  Yan Bing Zhang 《Journal of Intercultural Communication Research》2016,45(6):526-539

Guided by the Common Ingroup Identity Model and Berry’s acculturation framework, this study examined the roles that perceptions of language proficiency, cultural identity, and communication anxiety had on intergroup attitudes and stereotypes in the American–Chinese contact context. Serial mediation analyses with 10,000 bootstrap samples revealed that perceived English proficiency of a Chinese contact had significant indirect effects on affective and behavioral attitudes toward Chinese through American participants’ perceptions of their contact’s host and home culture identification and communication anxiety. Perceived English proficiency had an indirect effect only on positive stereotypes through the Chinese contact’s perceived identification with home culture.  相似文献

王晓亮  王帅  成盼攀 《北京体育大学学报》2017,40(11):16-21

摘要：“互联网+”成为新时期体育文化建构和产业延伸关键词，“互联网+体育”逐渐形成。冬奥会申办的成功给我国冬季运动发展带来契机，但冬季项目尤其是冰球运动的文化根基和发展现状而言，我国与北美传统优势强国之间存在较大差距。基于上述背景和发展要求，主要采用文献资料法、例证比较法等研究方法，运用胡塞尔“视域”概念及《冰雪运动发展规划（2016—2025年）》，借鉴北美冰球运动泛文化发展现状，提出适于我国“互联网+”和冬奥项目自身发展要求的拓延策略，最终提出3点建议，即群众参与的前提是政策助力，希望有关冬季项目政策能够出台更多有利于泛文化发展和全民普及的相关内容；媒体报道需更进一步加强，目前新闻类内容较多，文化类内容仍有待挖掘；借助产业链发展形态，促进冰雪产业与其他产业、国际合作等交流接轨，实现全球化的文化传播样态和理念。  相似文献

论镖局文化与中国武术文化的融合     

周义义  王智慧 《北京体育大学学报》2016,39(2):29-34

摘要：镖局文化是中国武术文化的重要组成部分，也是武术强势价值与功能的集中展现。采用文献资料法、对比研究和逻辑分析等方法，对镖局文化对中国武术文化的影响进行研究。认为：镖局是特殊社会环境和历史背景的催生以及经济演化的结果，武术搏击护卫价值的强势显现是镖局的基本入世态势；镖局的产生具有地缘、尚武和诚信三个方面的社会文化属性，在运作模式上主要体现为宗族属性和关系属性；镖局与镖局文化的出现促使习武者职业选择的多元化，在一定程度上促进了武术文化的扩布；促使崇尚强者、尚武精神与社会软性控制的文化元素在武术文化中进一步融入；在传统的道德伦理约束之下尚武、谦和、隐忍、诚信、无畏、正义、助人的镖局文化精神与武术文化精神相互融通；诚信教化、关系互动的社会属性与武术文化深入融合。  相似文献
