Being tolerated and minority well-being: The role of group identifications     

《Int J Intercult Relat》2020

In recent decades, a norm of tolerating group differences has been promoted by laypeople and leaders as a way to manage cultural and religious diversity. But whether such a policy is beneficial for the targets’ sense of group belonging and well-being is unknown. This research investigates how being tolerated differs from being discriminated against and being accepted in its associations with affective well-being and ethnic and national identification of ethnic minorities. We test whether being tolerated is related to well-being through its association with both group identifications. With a sample of ethnic minority group members in the Netherlands (N = 518) we found that being tolerated is related to higher well-being through increased national identification, but not as strongly as being accepted. Being tolerated is different from experiencing discrimination against and being accepted, and its relations to well-being and group belonging often fall between those of discrimination and acceptance. Toleration is associated with higher well-being, but only to the extent that its targets feel included in the overarching national category.  相似文献   

Rethinking participation in the Aarhus as European Capital of Culture 2017 project     

Leila Jancovich  Louise Ejgod Hansen 《Cultural Trends》2018,27(3):173-186

This paper examines the relationship between cultural participation and regional development with reference to the European Capital of Culture in 2017. From the bidding stage, Aarhus 2017 claimed it put “participation” at the heart of its strategic plans, through consultation at roadshows and exhibitions. In addition, it aspired to use culture as a catalyst for development not only in the city of Aarhus but across the region of Central Denmark. This paper, therefore, examines how participation is defined and implemented to address regional development in the Aarhus 2017 process through textual analysis of documentation from Aarhus 2017 and delivery partners as well as over 20 interviews with managers and participants involved in a range of 2017 projects. The paper argues against the common prioritisation of urban and professional cultural institutions and makes the case for decentralised cultural provision that supports both amateurs and professionals through a regional networked structure.  相似文献

Intercultural contacts and acculturation resources among International students in Australia: A mixed-methods study     

《Int J Intercult Relat》2020

This paper explores the impact of acculturation conditions, orientations and outcomes on international students in Australia’s tertiary education sector. Specifically, we investigate the factors that facilitate or hinder acculturation of international students within a multidimensional acculturation context (Arends-Tóth & van de Vijver, 2006). We used a sequential exploratory mixed-methods design in two studies to investigate acculturation of international students at an Australian university and test how these factors are related to psychological and sociocultural outcomes. In Study 1, we conducted a generic qualitative study using semi-structured interviews with a conventional content analyses approach,which compared the experiences of international students who on average had high numbers of positive experiences versus those who had high numbers of negative experiences. We found that a support network of mixed-nationals, and especially host locals, facilitates positive psychological and sociocultural adjustment, and buffers acculturative stress. Study 2 quantitatively tested the association of factors found in Study 1 (perceived stereotypes, intercultural and ethnic network/resources) with psychological and sociocultural acculturation outcomes. Study 2, shows that perceived negative stereotypes loosen ties with the dominant (host) culture and reinforces ties with the ethnic (non-host) culture. The social resources associated with either culture was found to be useful for acculturation, with both independently contributing to participant well-being. Contact with host locals played a particularly crucial role in developing these resources. Our findings provide foundations for pragmatic policy implications, suggesting value in the development of formally organized contact programs in the early sojourn experience of international students.  相似文献   

Bridging (Identification) divides: Ethnic minority endorsement of new diversity ideologies     

《Int J Intercult Relat》2021

In culturally diverse societies, ethnic minorities are faced with the challenge of negotiating between their national and ethnic identification. Diversity ideologies address this challenge in different ways, by prioritizing national identification in the case of assimilation, and ethnic identification in the case of multiculturalism. However, existing research has highlighted the risks and drawbacks of both ideologies, presenting polyculturalism and interculturalism as new alternatives which construe identities as more complex, dynamic, and interconnected between groups. Given that little is known about these ideologies from the minority perspective, the present study investigated their endorsement among ethnic minorities, as well as associations with their ethnic and national identification in the USA. Results show that, in general, pro-diversity ideologies (multiculturalism, interculturalism, and polyculturalism) are all supported by ethnic minorities, in contrast to assimilation. Moreover, ethnic identification is associated with support for multiculturalism, national identification is associated with support for assimilation, and both are associated with polyculturalism. For interculturalism, associations with ethnic and national identification depend on its subcomponents, which seem to address and bring together the other three ideologies. Interculturalism may therefore be a promising way forward to minimize the risks of assimilation, multiculturalism, and polyculturalism, while also maximizing their benefits to minorities and societies at large.  相似文献

桂拉旦 《科学．经济．社会》2006,24(2):12-15,20

随着社会主义市场经济体制的基本建立和全球经济一体化的加速发展,西部地区在工业化过程中依托的资源、劳动力等比较优势在地区经济增长中的作用明显减弱,因此竞争优势的培育显得越来越重要。本文认为,西部地区在推进新型工业化进程中增强区域竞争优势的有效途径是依托比较优势、特色经济,发展产业集群,培育竞争优势,提升区域产业竞争力,推动西部地区经济结构的战略性调整和优化升级,基本实现工业化。  相似文献   

贫困地区农村教育发展面临的主要矛盾及其基本对策--来自一个国家级贫困县的调查   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

刘纯阳 《中国软科学》2005,(10):8-13,20

在贫困地区,农村小学处于欲罢不能、欲办还休的两难境地,办学成本高昂。高中招生市场上则出现境遇两重天的局面,少数重点学校对优秀教育资源形成垄断之势,结果以一校之兴换来的却是一县教育之衰。教育收费水平远远超出了农户的支付能力,农户对现有教育投资成本形成高水平预期,因而降低了教育投资的热情。“以县为主”的教育投资体制不适合贫困县的实际情况,在县级财政能力严重不足而向上级政府寻求转移支付的渠道又不宽敞的现实条件下,降低教育这种公共品的质量或者增加农民教育负担就势成必然了。  相似文献
