Wartime imaginings of an archipelagic community: Fajar Asia and the quest for peninsula Malayan and Indonesian unity

During a brief period in the Japanese occupation of Southeast Asia, Malaya, including Singapore, was administratively placed with Sumatra under Japan’s 25th Army. From 28 March 1942 to April 1943, the two territories that had been separated by British and Dutch colonial rule since the mid-nineteenth century were considered one territory. This article explores how Malay intellectuals, through articles written in the magazine Fajar Asia, took advantage of this unprecedented opportunity to strive for a Malaya-Sumatra and Malaya-Indonesia community. This article will analyse the various wartime imaginings of a joint archipelagic community within the pages of Fajar Asia and highlight tensions within this project which resulted in an impasse as to how such a unity should or could be achieved.     

Rethinking the Rural Idyll

ABSTRACT

This article traces the profound social repercussions that resulted from the mass enlistment of British office workers into the armed forces during the First World War. Drawing heavily upon fictionalized autobiographies of the period, my study examines the various stages of the clerk's experience of the conflict and argues that the confidence gained during warfare by surviving office workers fundamentally shaped a more democratic postwar society. This change is evidenced, I argue, in the profile of the fictional clerk that emerges in British literature after 1918.     

Politics,Pauperism and Power in Late Nineteenth Century Ireland. By Virginia Crossman.

ABSTRACT

Food and military identity were inextricably linked in the British Army: rations were a thrice daily indicator of the men's separation from their civilian selves. The soldiers were what they ate, but they were also where and how they ate; the grubby rapacity of the barrack dining hall, the absence of civilizing cutlery and the unfamiliar food delineated their new role as clearly as any uniform. Institutional feeding facilitated the erasure of self, an unhelpful attribute in the military world. Men's accounts indicate the conflict between their appetites and what they all too often regarded as oppression in a dietary form.     

第40 届世界体操锦标赛中国女子高低杠的优势与差距

采用文献资料法、录像观察法及数理统计与比较法,系统分析中国女子高低杠的优势与不足。发现：中国顶尖选手成套A分动作的难度和完成质量与世界优秀选手相当,但多数选手整体技术实力不及外国选手,在杠间换握动作的实力连接、个性化特色动作的编排以及专项素质和能力等方面,存有一定差距;而比赛动作完成拘谨、缺乏表现欲及个别动作完成规格低等因素,是致使中国高低杠未能获得更好成绩的主要原因;强化提高专项素质和能力,进一步提高成套动作的难度和完成质量,并促使两杠换握动作的连接在完成上更加紧凑、流畅和颇具观赏性,是中国女子高低杠努力的方向。     

世界银行治理结构改革与中国的应对策略?

世界银行在全球经济治理中发挥着重要作用,但随着新兴经济体的崛起和近年来金融危机、债务危机频发,世界银行治理结构所存在的制度性缺陷显露无遗,相应改革势在必行。但是,由于世界银行具有公共组织与股份公司的双重属性,使得改革方向出现分歧,改革进程推进缓慢。从根本上说,世界银行改革中发达国家与发展中国家并不存在不可调和的利益冲突,在减贫等问题上双方存在着合作的基础。中国应积极推进世界银行治理结构改革：首先,必须明确“负责任、有作为的大国”定位,表现出推动改革的积极态度;其次,要紧密围绕“发展”主题,注重长远利益;再次,要加强对世界银行人事安排的参与;最后,要积极构建世界银行框架下发展中国家沟通与合作的正式协调机制。     

第40届世界体操锦标赛男子跳马比赛技术的研究

通过对第40届世界体操锦标赛男子跳马决赛比赛动作的研究,分析新规则下世界男子跳马运动的发展趋势。结果表明：男子跳马动作类型选择集中于前手翻类和侧手翻转体90°类;决赛两跳动作难度A分均达到7．00分;动作加难的重点在第二腾空阶段;动作难度与动作质量是制约跳马运动发展的关键。     

影响竞技健美操最后得分因素探究——以第10届世界健美操锦标赛六人操决赛为例

运用图像分析、文献资料调研、数理统计等研究方法,对第10届世界健美操集体六人决赛前8名运动员名次与难度、艺术、完成得分进行了系统分析。研究显示,提高难度动作的质量才是关键所在,难度、艺术和完成是相辅助相成、相互影响的,仅仅孤立地追求某一方面的得分,只会得不偿失。     

上海体育与世博同行的战略构想

第5届女足世界杯形成射门过程的进攻模型研究

通过对第5届女足世界杯32场比赛的962次射门统计,结果表明：本届世界杯射门次数增多,但是进球率显著下降;总射门的97．3％在E、B区完成,超过28的射门是由中前场发动进攻形成;定位球和抢断球发动进攻形成的射门最多;总射门的47．8％在完成前只有2次以下的传球,29．0％的射门形成时间在4s以下等等;形成射门的进攻战术模型有中后场发动逐步进攻射门模型,前场定位球进攻射门模型苘场发动阵地进攻射门模型,底传中、边路长传中进攻射门模型,中后场定位球、长传快攻进攻射门模型,边路射门、门前补射进攻射门模型。     

2019年篮联世界杯广州赛区小组赛对中国队的启示

2019年国际篮联篮球世界杯在中国圆满举行,广州作为分赛场,承接了西班牙、波多黎各、突尼斯以及伊朗四支代表队的小组比赛6场。通过对广州赛区四支队伍在小组赛中的表现技术进行分析,并对比中国队在本次赛事中的表现,发现中国男篮在备赛与参赛阶段,存在大赛目标不清晰,心理训练与细节训练不足,教练团队执教水平不稳定,篮球基本功不扎实等一系列问题,反映出我国篮球的发展正处于困境。系统地分析广州小组赛中四支队伍的赛况,并与中国队做出对比,有针对性地提出建议,为中国篮球的发展提供参考。
