Black Koreans in Korean children���s literature : A study of Won You Soon���s book ���Please find Chartlon Sunja Kim���

The purpose of this study is to depict and examine the perception of black Koreans in South Korean children���s literature. This study examines my research questions through four theoretical frameworks: ���culture and identity���, ���post-colonialism, nationalism and racism���, ���blackness and black Koreans��� portrayal in Korean media��� and ���multiculturalism in Korea���. My study raises the question how multicultural literature can help or not promote a new perception of otherness in South Korea. The method used for this study is qualitative text analysis. The primary source of information is a close-reading of Won You Soon���s book ���Please find Charlton Sunja Kim��� and interviews with the author of this book. The findings show that there are still some stereotypes about black Koreans and blackness that prevail in South Korean society and can still be found in recent literary works.

Sublima ristningar : S��kandet efter brons��ldersideologi i h��llristningsomr��den kring Enk��ping, Norrk��ping och Sk��ne

The aim of this study has been to revaluate Bronze Age society using rock art as an archaeological material. It has also sought to question certain prevailing interpretative trends within the research of rock art; ascribing it as ritual practices, expression of a social elite and the adoption of symbols from cultures along the Mediterranean Sea. This has chiefly been made possible through the application of Slavoj ��i��eks ideas about the ideological fantasy and the sublime object of ideology. The thesis proposes a connection between art and ideology. A selected sampling of rock carvings from three areas in Sweden has been made in order to further investigate the relationship between different figurative motives both at a regional level, as well as a local. This study claims that rather than having been under the control of an elite, rock art has been accessible for the majority of the population both to produce and view. The depiction of human representation as rock carving does not depict a clear social stratification. It is also argued that the idea of images displayed on the rocks having roots in the imagery of Mediterranean civilizations is a construct of current western ideology, as the symbolic connection between the cultures is tenable at best, according to this study.��

Whistleblower protection: Is Africa ready?

The article critically examines propositions driving the exportation of western whistleblower concepts into the developing world.(1) Specifically it attacks the prevailing view that public interest disclosure is somehow a culture-free, or at least a culture-muted phenomenon, governed by a set of rules and conventions detached from local histories and practices. The article concludes that this exportation is in the spirit of neo-colonialism and issues a note of warning about the dangers of dispersing western conceived forms of corruption reporting to Africa.

Moving and dancing towards decolonisation in education: An example from an Indigenous Australian performance classroom

This paper explores the special type of thinking, moving and dancing place which is opened up for decolonisaton when students engage in an embodied pedagogical practice in Indigenous education. The author examines what decolonisation means in this context by describing the ways in which the curriculum, the students and teacher, and more generally the discipline of ethnomusicology itself, undergo a process to question, critique, and move aside the pedagogical script of colonialism in order to allow Indigenous ways of understanding music and dance to be presented, privileged and empowered. Key questions are: What is the relationship between embodiment and disembodiment and decolonisation and colonisation? In what ways is embodiment more than, or other than, the presence of moving bodies? In what ways is performativity an aspect of power/knowledge/subject formations? How can it be theorised? What could the pedagogical scripts of decolonisation look like?

CONHECER PARA CONVERTER OU ALGO MAIS?: LEITURA CR��TICA DAS ETNOGRAFIAS MISSION��RIAS DE HENRI-ALEXANDRE JUNOD E CARLOS ESTERMANN

Resumo: O colonialismo produziu diversos discursos sobre as culturas locais, sendo que o discurso dos mission��rios �� uma de suas variantes e, por sua vez, neste discurso est��o inclusas as etnografias mission��rias. Apresentamos uma leitura cr��tica de duas etnografias mission��rias produzidas nas at�� ent��o col��nias portuguesas, os territ��rios de Angola e Mo��ambique. A primeira, intitulada Usos e costumes dos bantos: a vida duma tribo sulafricana, cujo autor �� o mission��rio Henri-Alexandre Junod (1863-1934); a segunda, intitulada Etnografia do sudoeste de Angola, cujo autor �� o mission��rio Carlos Estermann (1896- 1976). Problematizamos a rela����o entre a a����o mission��ria, o colonialismo portugu��s e as culturas locais dos territ��rios de Angola e Mo��ambique, atrav��s da an��lise destas etnografias mission��rias. Destacamos que estas etnografias, al��m de apresentarem a riqueza das formas de vida das sociedades nativas, sinalizam como se efetivaram as negocia����es entre estes mission��rios em suas pr��ticas de missiona����o e seus interlocutores nativos.
