Commemorative places,political spaces: Virginia Indians,the Jamestown Quadricentennial,and the quest for sovereignty

ABSTRACT

This essay examines the cross-cultural communication strategies deployed by a coalition of indigenous tribes in Virginia to leverage the Quadricentennial commemoration of the founding at Jamestown in support of their sovereignty campaign. The tensions between Jamestown’s mythos as the “birthplace of democracy” and the natives’ historical and contemporary lived experiences, combined with the national and international attention focused on the events, constructed the 400th anniversary “celebrations” as a compelling location for social action. The coalition employed intercultural communicative practices—particularly cross-cultural dialogue and negotiation—as means of mobilizing these tensions to renegotiate their relationship with the federal government, illustrating the intersection of intercultural communication, memory, and identity.

以"霍尔模式"解读跨文化交际中的传播与接受

通过斯图尔特.霍尔所提出的3种假设解码立场,即著名的"霍尔模式",将研究从原来的大众传媒"电视文本"研究主题推移至跨文化交际过程中广义文本的信息传递与接受,来解读跨文化交际中外来文化习俗传播与接受状况。文章通过选取有代表性的案例进行调查,得出样本信息并加以分析,从而破解跨文化交际中的意义传递在传送者"制码"与接受者"解码"之间的非直线关系。

论跨文化非语言交际中的空间因素

隶尾于非语言交际中的人的空间观念是后天习得的。因此，人们的领地要求和空间关系在每种文化中都有其特有规则和程序。文化不同，人们对空间的需求与空间有关的交际规则也不同，极易造成跨文化非语言交际障碍。研究跨文化非语言交际中的空间因素，有助于跨文化非语言交际顺利进行，从而推动文化间的交流与合作。     

试析清政府"新政"时期教育政策的调整

清末“新政”时期 ,清政府为挽救统治危机 ,不得不对旧有的教育政策进行大幅度地调整 :废除科举制度 ,建立新式教育系统 ;优先发展师范教育 ;初步向国民普及教育迈进等。由于有相对独立的教育行政机构的保障 ,加以较为积极的社会捐助教育资金政策的施行 ,这种调整在一定程度上得以实现 ,为中国教育由传统向近代的转型奠定了初步基础。但因其政策调整的指导思想仍未跳出“中体西用”的窠臼 ,加之当时财政状况的衰敝 ,其实际成效则大为逊色     

Identity policies of education: struggles for inclusion and exclusion in Peru and Colombia

ABSTRACT

Policy initiatives that seek to account for ethno-cultural differences in education and schooling have become increasingly popular over the past few decades. These include affirmative action measures and bilingual education models. The rationale for the implementation of these policies focuses on their potential to rectify historical discrimination by both levelling horizontal inequalities and granting equal value to different cultures and languages in the schooling process. In this framework, however, ethnic communities are often treated as discrete and static social aggregates, and social heterogeneity and spillover effects between groups are disregarded. This paper draws on empirical case studies from Colombia and Peru to show how identity policies of education can increase inter-ethnic competition, leading to protracted social conflicts. These outcomes, beyond negatively impacting local communities, raise important dilemmas surrounding the theoretical and operational foundations of these popular policy measures.
