The rhetorical force of “global archival memory”: (Re)Situating archives along the global memoryscape     

Matthew Houdek 《Journal of International and Intercultural Communication》2016,9(3):204-221

ABSTRACT

This essay engages the possibilities and pitfalls of UNESCO’s Memory of the World program for fostering “global archival memory.” Archives function as rhetorical weapons for both political control and social justice within national and regional contexts. The constitution of global archival memory shifts archives’ borders beyond nation-bound contexts, creating space for contention, deliberation, and debate within a presentist transnational arena. Approaching archives as symbols capable of marshaling cross-cultural identifications furthers memory scholars’ conceptions of transnational memories and communities. It responds to rhetorical scholars’ calls to further engage archives, while drawing on archival studies, memory studies, and rhetorical theories of memory.  相似文献   

When postcolonial studies meets media studies     

Raka Shome 《Critical Studies in Media Communication》2016,33(3):245-263

This essay addresses (1) how postcolonial studies might inform and enrich media studies, especially as the latter is situated in the Communication discipline, and (2) how media studies may productively expand the terrain postcolonial studies, that thus far has been dominated by the fields of Literature and Comparative Literature. Focusing on, and challenging, issues such as the North Atlantic temporal logics that inform the received history of media studies, as well as contesting the narrow boundaries of literary studies for engaging in contemporary postcolonial media/ted cultures, this essay attempts to argue for the importance of postcolonial media studies.  相似文献   

South African contributions to LGBTI education issues     

Tiffany Jones 《Sex education》2019,19(4):455-471

ABSTRACT

South Africa stands out in the African region for its protection of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) rights. This article examines South Africa’s contributions to local policy for LGBTIs and to work on LGBTI issues in education policy and education rights progress internationally. It also considers broader South African contributions to the theorisation of gender and sexuality. Data derive from an analysis of 102 interviews with key informants participating in high-level global networking for LGBTI students’ rights, and documentary analysis showing how stakeholders characterise South African contributions to transnational LGBTI education work. Informants identified how such contributions have a strong human rights emphasis, furthering post-colonial resistance to simplistic gender and sexuality classification schema imposed via imperial colonising dynamics. While South African work in this area has also promoted and facilitated research, it has at times been limited by ambivalence from its leadership. The nation’s early adoption of constitutional rights, relationship rights and educational equity provisions as acts of decolonisation contribute valuable African LGBTI work examples to the region. Their success encourages further funding for South-South transnational LGBTI education work.  相似文献

WTO过渡期后，中国零售市场全面开放，外资进入速度加快，给本土零售企业带来了前所未有的压力，跨国经营对中国零售业就显得非常必要；从所有权优势、区位优势和内部化优势分析，中国零售业已具备从事跨国经营的条件；中国零售企业要取得跨国经营的成功，需要借鉴国外成功经验，结合本国实际，制定并选择有利的经营战略．  相似文献   

Constructing a theory of individual space: understanding transnational migration through the experience of return Chinese immigrants from Canada in Beijing     

Yueya Ding 《Globalisation, Societies & Education》2015,13(2):260-275

Drawing on life history research, this study critically examines the transnational experiences of return Chinese immigrants from Canada in Beijing. Through the accounts of their experiences, it explores different integration and reintegration strategies, including self-adjustment, lifelong learning and flexible citizenship. A native concept of ‘space’ is examined and a theory of individual space (IS) is constructed. The study demonstrates that immigrants' integration is a process of constant construction and reconstruction of their expected IS in various societies. This space defines the self and its relationship to others and the outside world. By spatial transformation, migrants break spatial limitations to seek a better future. The tension between IS and the society the migrant enters determines the ongoing characteristics of contemporary transnational migration.  相似文献   

Analysing Creative Design Process: A Set of Tools to Understand Activity in its Socio-cultural and Historic Context     

Brenda Saris  Stephanie Doyle  Judith Loveridge 《The International Journal of Art & Design Education》2023,42(3):439-453

Previous theoretical frameworks used to research and explain creative design processes tend to privilege individual expression and not address the context in which the process occurs. This is problematic due to the ways in which creative activities are embedded in and shaped by socio-cultural and historic contexts. In this article we focus on the ways in which cultural historic activity theory (CHAT) and its analytical activity systems can be used to reveal creative processes in context. We draw on the tools and concepts of CHAT and data from a study of visual communication design (VCD) students and lecturers situated within a transnational higher education (TNHE) context at a university in China. An analytical framework was constructed to research practices used in creative design process learning. The dynamic nature of CHAT offers design process research methods a set of analytical tools to capture the powerful parts played by artifacts and interactions within specific sociocultural and historic learning contexts.  相似文献   

跨国技术并购中吸收能力与技术绩效关系研究——基于演化博弈论     

王诗翔  魏江  路瑶 《科学学研究》2014,32(12)

中国企业的跨国技术并购能否提升技术绩效尚无定论,文章旨在提出并验证并购后企业技术绩效提升的关键在于吸收能力。首先建立了国内并购企业和国外目标企业隐性知识共享的演化博弈模型,其动态进化稳定策略是"贡献-贡献"和"不贡献-不贡献"。知识流动动力机制分析表明,吸收能力对该演化博弈的均衡有关键影响,基于此提出如下假说:企业吸收能力是知识整合、技术提升的关键,企业吸收能力越强,并购后的技术绩效越好。然后以2004-2009年国内A股上市公司跨国技术并购的事件为样本建立了泊松回归模型,实证结果证实了如上假说。这一结果刻画了并购后的知识共享机制,证明了吸收能力是中国企业通过跨国技术并购提升技术绩效的关键。  相似文献   

运动员跨国流动的国家边界问题：在荣誉外包与民族情绪之间     

黄璐 《成都体育学院学报》2014,(11)

以欧洲足球五大联赛外籍球员的全球招募为标志的人力资源外包服务,不仅推动了当地体育赛事经济的发展,同时在人的主体性层面上具有更多的文化表征涵义。运动员跨国流动中荣誉外包行为引发了广泛的社会争议,民族情绪从中扮演了重要的角色。荣誉外包与民族情绪问题的化解取决于国家边界意识能动性所能发挥的作用,或者更具体地说是一个国家、一个民族、一个机构、一个群体、一个人如何理解这样一种全球变革的背景和趋势。  相似文献   

跨国破产法的统一化趋势研究     

祝阳 《贵阳金筑大学学报》2005,(3):31-33

在经济全球化的今天，国际贸易和国际投资的迅速发展促进了资金的跨国流动，跨国破产案件随之产生并日益增多。在这种背景之下，严格的破产地域主义正逐渐失去其存在的环境，跨国破产领域内的统一化趋势日渐明显，且已在一些国际组织和国家的法律文件中得以体现。我国破产法长期以来忽视了跨国破产问题，在新的形势下，应当深入研究当前跨国破产的统一化趋势，并在此基础上结合我国的实际情况进一步促进我国跨国破产法律的完善与改进。  相似文献
