Aquino and beyond: Philippine Communist Strategies
Creators: name: Van Der Kroef, Justus M.
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: The decision of the Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) to boycott the Presidential election of February 7, 1986 produced a major leadership crisis and tactical change in the Party. The accession to power of Mrs. Corazon Aquino on a wave of popular support and enthusiasm was perceived as a major leadership miscalculation by the CPP Central Committee and Politburo during their meetings in April and May, 1986. The original decision to boycott the election had been based on the view that Mrs. Aquino and the forces behind her did not represent any major difference or potential for fundamental change from the policies of President Ferdinand Marcos. It was apparent, however, from the role of the Philippine Armed Forces, the influential Catholic Church, the business community and other social strata that Mrs. Aquino had managed to become a symbol of much desired reforms in the political and economic system. By ignoring Aquino and her election, the sweep of "people’s power" that had brought Marcos down seemed to be bypassing the CPP. As a result, Rodolfo Salas and Rafael Baylosis, principal CPP leaders since the late 1970s, and architects of an uncompromising "hardline" policy of confrontation - including terrorism - against the government, lost much influence. Salas was replaced as CPP chairman by Benito Tiamzon, the Eastem Visayas regional party leader and trade union activist. At the same time, the CPP appointed Saturnino Ocampo and Antonio Zumel as party representatives in forthcoming peace talks and amnesty discussions with the Aquino government. Clearly, the leadership crisis remains unresolved (both Salas and Baylosis remain Central Committee members), but the CPP appears committed indefinitely to a policy of "negotiating while fighting", a not unfamiliar Communist tactic. Clashes between Communist guerillas and Philippine military, meanwhile, appear to be slackening somewhat.

description: Needham’s Recursive Shell Model: A First-Principles Approach to Particle MassThis paper introduces a novel theoretical framework in which elementary particles arise from a hierarchy of recursively nested “shells.” By applying quantization rules to successive radial zones, Needham’s model derives particle masses, interaction signatures, and classification directly from first principles—offering a unified scheme for both known and predicted particles across shell indices 0–100. All particles are predicted and a reproducible CSV file will be produced by the python script. 

Included in this Zenodo upload:

fixed-particle-identification.py

Scans shell indices 0–100 using Needham’s recursion rules

Outputs Universal_Particle_Table.csv with columns: shell_index, zone, sector, particle_name, mass, unit, detection_signature, theoretical

description: In-car interfaces are the primary medium for communication be- tween the occupants and the increasingly agentic vehicle systems. Although many universities teach automotive user experience and design courses, there is no consensus on what topics to cover. Some schools may choose to focus on the interior design of the cabin, including, but not limited to, physical controls and ergonomics, while other schools may just focus on the usability of what is shown to the driver and passengers. Participants in our workshop will discuss various topics for teaching Automotive UX and UI at both undergraduate and graduate levels, participating in interactive activities such as panels, breakout discussions, and syllabus design. Participants will then combine and form their findings into a course outline based on themes (ex., UI, Human Factors, etc.). This work- shop is expected to achieve general consensus on a Automotive UX curriculum drawing from diverse stakeholders, including academia, industry, and government.

Funerary Masks and the Geopolitical Use of Classical Archaeology in Nationalist Disputes
Creators: name: Clementi, Jessica
Publisher: name: THERSITES. Journal for Transcultural Presences & Diachronic Identities from Antiquity to Date
Year: 2020

description: Funerary masks are a trans-cultural phenomenon that involves, in different ways and times, the whole ancient Mediterranean due to their particular power to showcase individuality, as concentrated in the face and head. The discussion on the origin of this custom in Ancient Macedonia during the Archaic Period has been strongly influenced by the identity narratives based on different national archaeologies. Previous and current interpretations are, indeed, deeply influenced by the quest for identifying the ethnicity of ancient Macedonians and their relationship to present nation states. Transformed into material evidence of ethnic identity, masks are involved in complex exegeses. On the one hand, Greek archaeology emphasizes an approach based on continuity theses, which can be summarized in the formula “memories of Mycenaean funerary customs” to emphasize a direct link between the Archaic and Mycenaean periods. On the other hand, masks played a key role in the construction of the modern Macedonian national myth and narrative, as proofs for Macedonian identity descended from the most distant past.

Following Hegel’s Sovereign Beast: An Excursus on the Right of Heroes
Creators: name: Nichols, Joshua Ben David
Publisher: name: Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute
Year: 2019

description: In The Beast and the Sovereign, Derrida addresses an association that is as paradoxical as it is common. On the one hand, it seems as if the sovereign is, or at least should be, the furthest from the beast. And yet, as soon as we consult the various archives of political mythology––myth, theology, philosophy, art, etc.––we find them together, inseparable despite their distance. The seminar itself is a continuation of his previous explorations of the host concepts and figures that populate the political and philosophical history of sovereignty. The course takes him through a series of texts that stretches from Plato, Machiavelli, Hobbes and Rousseau, to Freud, Heidegger, Lacan and Schmitt, among others, but his engagement with Hegel is limited. The few times that Hegel’s name does appear, it is almost exclusively a reference or aside within other more substantial engagements (Lacan and Heidegger, in particular). This absence is at least somewhat curious given the extent of Derrida’s previous engagements with Hegel’s corpus. I am not suggesting that this absence constitutes some essential oversight; rather, it is an opportunity to set out on an excursion from the course of The Beast and the Sovereign without leaving its territory. After all, Hegel also has an account of the origins of law. He, too, has a character that is set apart by his (almost) animal quality. This figure arrives on stage before history begins. His role––and indeed his “right”––is to found the most basic elements of the state. We are told that his “right” is absolute. He is no Lord. He is not driven by a desire for the recognition of the other. However, who confers this “absolute” right? If his actions are not bound by any measure or proportion, how do we distinguish between the hero and the criminal?

 COMMENTS: The Hunstein Mountains and a Wagu are within the April Salome Forest Management Area of East Sepik Province. The historically recognized “Black River” does not pass through East Sepik Province, but the name “black river” has been generally applied to many different sections of small offshoots of main rivers where the waters are particularly dark. Thus, it must be presumed that the “Black River” referred to in the above localities is some local reference and not to be confused with the historical usage of Black River for the tributary to the Wok Luap River (= Palmer River) that joins at McGregor Junction and is otherwise west of the Strickland River and south of the Kaban Range (e.g., Karius, 1929).
 Since the male of H. keyensis has not been previously figured, pertinent images are included herein (Figs. 24–28). Unfortunately, the available male is not in good condition and had been dissected at some point in the past, with the terminalia glued to a card pinned beneath the specimen. A heavy dose of glue was used such that it overlays portions of structures and in the case of the eighth sternum has rendered it exceedingly difficult to interpret. One gonostylus is broken apically, and the apodemes and proximal border of the seventh sternum are distorted and partially damaged (Figs. 27, 28).

Political actor or policy instrument? Governance challenges in Australian local government
Creators: name: Brackertz, Nicola
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This article examines the governance challenges facing Australian local government, which include lack of constitutional standing, intergovernmental dependencies, financial constraints and weak democratic standing. The historical context has shaped the nature and place of local government in the Australian federal polity and has contributed to the tensions created by an expansion of the roles and responsibilities of local government, especially in the provision of services, which is not matched by concomitant increases in financial capacity and local autonomy. These governance challenges are discussed with a view to establishing local government's capacity for autonomous self-governance in the face of intergovernmental and fiscal dependencies, and the implications of this for local government reform trajectories.

description: Problème La diversification des cultures implique d’introduire une ou plusieurs nouvelles espèces au sein d’un système de culture. Ceci nécessite d'expérimenter, d'investir et de prendre des risques. De même, la transformation et la commercialisation de nouveaux produits issus de la diversification obligent les acteurs en aval à innover, ce qui nécessite là aussi des ressources supplémentaires. Si les agriculteurs et les acteurs des filières ne perçoivent pas de valeur supplémentaire pour ces nouvelles productions par rapport aux cultures plus courantes, cela peut les décourager d’entreprendre une diversification et d'investir dans de nouvelles chaînes de valeur. Solution Dans la perspective d’encourager une diversification des systèmes de culture, le prix des nouvelles productions devrait donc fournir aux agriculteurs une valeur supplémentaire en comparaison aux cultures plus courantes. Les chaînes de valeur doivent également assurer une répartition équitable des bénéfices entre les acteurs, en cohérence avec les niveaux de risque et l'investissement qu’ils mettent en œuvre. Une liste de 14 critères permettant de définir un prix juste pour les nouvelles cultures et chaînes de valeur a été élaborée. Un questionnaire connexe aide les acteurs à discuter du niveau des prix et de questions telles que la répartition de la valeur, la transparence, etc.

 COMMENTS: Included are images from a paratype of H. lamingtonia (Figs. 13, 14, 21), as well as of workers collected from a nearby locality to the north of Mount Lamington, perhaps no more than 25 km from where the type series was collected. These individuals are less faded and agree in all details with the type series except in more extensive lighter coloration on the head, pleura, and wing venation (cf. Figs. 13, 14, 21 vs. 29–33). Both of these color forms have identical structural details and both possess the erect to suberect black setae on the apical metasomal terga that help to distinguish this species from H. keyensis.

The use of built environments in the formation and change of national identities: the case of Macedonia and 'Skopje 2014'
Creators: name: Muratovski, Gjoko
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: The aim of this paper is to examine the process of national identity formation and change. In order to do so, theories of 'narrative identity' [Ricoeur 1991] and 'invented traditions' [Hobsbawm and Ranger 1983] are used to address issues related to emerging national causes [Castells 1997], transitional countries [Szondi 2007] and EU integration [Pieterse 1991]. The main focus of this paper is the use of built environments as a signifier of national identity, alongside other signifiers such as the language, flag, emblem or anthem. While the expressive power of built environments as a signifier of social, economic or political authority during times of prosperity is widely recognised in the literature [Castoriadis 1987; Zizek 1989; Mayo 1996; Sudjic 2006; Sklair 2010], their role during times of political crisis (such as during times of critical national restructuring) has not been fully studied or theorised [Diamond 2003; Kaika 2010]. This paper contributes to this discussion and argues that built environments (e.g. urban planning and design, architecture, and monuments), when used as a form of national propaganda, can help a nation to define its identity and can project the nation's vision for the future. A particular case that will be examined includes Macedonia and the controversial 'Skopje 2014' government-funded project for the redevelopment of the Skopje city centre. The argument will be presented through qualitative theory that incorporates hermeneutic and semiotic analysis of gathered information. This means that I will be (a) interpreting information from a historical and theoretical perspective, and (b) analysing the examples referred to, by assessing the connections between and complexities that arise from the interplay of architecture and politics. Furthermore, I will adopt an interpretative/positivist methodological approach that builds systematic and explanatory theory with concepts grounded in data generated from qualitative studies.

I film peplum e la fine del mito fascista della romanità
Creators: name: Avalli, Andrea
Publisher: name: THERSITES. Journal for Transcultural Presences & Diachronic Identities from Antiquity to Date
Year: 2020

description: As both classicist and historians have shown, the myth of romanità was one of the key elements at the core of Italian nationalism and Fascist ideology, that in 1937 found its most famous cinematographic expression through the film Scipione l’Africano. After the fall of the Fascist regime and the end of the war, and during the 1950s, new peplum films produced new Italian representations of ancient Rome. These new movies reversed the old, Fascist exaltation of Roman imperial power into a Catholic condemnation of it as a violent and anti-Christian dictatorship. An historical analysis of post-war Italian films on ancient Rome can therefore enlighten the change in perception of totalitarianism and national identity in Italian society. It can moreover study the post-Fascist transition by showing changes and continuities in culture after the fall of the regime. Among the Fascist continuities, the analysis of post-war historical films clearly shows the persistence of a colonialist, racially white national identity as well as a Catholic and Italian self-representation as peaceful and innocent victims of Fascism. The condemnation of totalitarianism coexists therefore with the lack of a public admission of guilt in regards of Fascism, colonialism, racism and war.

description: Enduring Stalingrad: The Sixth Army consisting of about 250,000 men was trapped in the pocket of Stalingrad for more than 70 days in 1942/43. Based on conclusive source material this paper will discuss how German soldiers of different age and rank tried to cope with this extreme battle experience. Specific mental strategies employed are being analyzed, i.e. classical references to Greco-Roman literature, language, and history. For some (educated) soldiers, antiquity played a vital role in keeping up morale, in enduring, if not surviving Stalingrad.

Hegel entseelt: Probleme der chinesischen Hegel-Rezeption
Creators: name: Lackner, Michael
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: Apart from the Marxist Fathers of the Cliurch, Hegel remains the Western philosopher who holds the most lasting attraction on modern mainland Chinese thought. By examining the translation of his "Vorlesungen über die Ästhetik" (recently completed by the famous scholar Zhu Guangqian), we gain an insight into an important standard text serving as a basis for the Chinese preoccupation with the German philosopher and his contemporaries. Moreover, the hermeneutic tradition of aesthetics in some currents of the German classical period, and the Chinese need for an unpolitical focus of several different, yet interrelated discussions as reflected in the present debate on aesthetics, both Chinese and Western, seem to be partly convergent. For a detailed analysis of the translation's quality, two questions have to be asked: 1. Does the translation enable the Chinese reader to follow precisely the train of Hegel's thought? 2. Is there any attempt at rendering the terminological and syntactical complexity of Hegel's language by congenial expressions comparing the original - Hegel's introductory section on natural beauty - with the Chinese translation (the latter is throughout followed by a re-translation into German), both questions can only partly be answered in the affirmative. There is a strong Marxist bias towards reducing the multidimensional Hegelian thought process to simplifications or even misinterpretations in a "materialist" way. Some terminological renderings do match the original quite aptly, but there are few consistencies in using them. Furthermore, the translation tends to replace verbal constructions expressing movement in the association of ideas by fixed noun constructions, so that "Being" takes the place of "Becoming". Several misleading interpretations may also be due to a traditional intellectual bias towards the Marxist impact in some cases. In conclusion, it must be said that the present translation does not entirely do justice to the original. So the Chinese reader may well get some abstract idea of the Hegelian system, but it will still remain difficult to grasp the spiritual intensity of his thinking.

The Origins and Evolution of Ancient Spartan Identity in the Mani Peninsula, Greece

Publisher: name: THERSITES. Journal for Transcultural Presences & Diachronic Identities from Antiquity to Date
Year: 2020

description: Through a careful analysis of the historical records of travels to the Mani peninsula from the 16th century onward, I argue that the commonly-ascribed identity of the Maniots, as descended directly from the Spartans of Classical Antiquity, is a modern construction that was: a) externally imposed; and b) created largely in the 18th century. In this article, I provide a timeline of Spartan identification in Mani, discuss the historical, military, and political circumstances that led to the formation of this identification, and conclude with a brief examination of the modern re-appropriation of ancient Spartan identity in recent years within the far-right fascist political group, Golden Dawn, whose leading members identified strongly both with Mani and ancient Sparta. Ultimately, in this work I provide context for the progression and evolution of Spartan identity in this small corner of the Greek world.

The Present Stage of State Building in China and the 1979 Electoral Law
Creators: name: Cheng, Joseph Y. S.
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: Since the mid-1960s Eastem Europe has realized that the achievement of secularized goals in a modern society requires decentralization of decision-making power and that political stability and economic progress demand in stitutional opportunities for interest articulation. Such considerations emerged in China after the Cultural Revolution when Deng Xiaoping introduced the Four Modemizations as the guiding ideology. To improve the people’s living standards and eliminate bureaucratism and cadre privileges, the Chinese reformers appreciated the significance of socialist democracy and restored local elections. A revised Electoral Law was adopted in 1979. But its implementation encountered resistance from conservative cadres and a backward political culture. Elections in China today only play a limited role in mobilization, political education and socialization, integration, legitimation and influence on public policy. Direct elections at the county level and below, however, provide better interest articulation and aggregation and supervision of local governments. The expansion of enterprise autonomy and the division of labour between the Party and state will, hopefully, establish a more direct relationship between elections in basic production units and the people's immediate material interests. This will cultivate a more advanced participatory political culture, and its development will be closely related to reforms of the economic system.

Burma - Economic Problems and Prospects
Creators: name: Sell, Axel
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: After a period of inward-looking policy Burma started in the mid-seventies to open its doors to foreign trade. The perspective of the long-term plan to transform the country’s economy from an agricultural economy into first an agro-based industrializing country and then into an industrialized one could be undermined by the decline in the unit prices of traditional export products. This danger highlights the importance of outside financing. However, in order not to get involved in debt problems it is essential that in project evaluation and selection the foreign exchange impact gets a proper weight. In the long run the economic progress of Burma may strongly depend on how the ethnic conflicts can be settled, on the quality of the socialist economic planning system, and on the role the private sector will be conceded.

Alatri in the Sky with Diamonds

description: This article focuses on the Cyclopean masonry walls of the city of Alatri, in the Latium Vetus, and on their role in the present identity-building process. Traditional chronology for these structures — now also supported by data from stratigraphic excavations — places them in the 4th century BC, in the context of the Samnite Wars, in which this city of Hernician origin fought as an ally of Rome. Alternative theories, with deep roots in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and widespread among the inhabitants of Alatri, date these imposing walls many centuries earlier, and ascribe their construction to a group of Hittites who were fleeing from their capital Hattusa in Asia Minor and settled in central Italy. Dealing with pseudo-archaeologists and amateur scholars and their relationship to scientific archaeology, the case study addressed in this paper deals with the widespread problem of the relationship between mainstream archaeology and pseudo-archaeology, and their role in the identity-building process based on archaeological discourses. The complex problem of the relationship between the adoption of a multivocal approach and the dissemination of scientific results among society will also be analysed, also through a comparison with the case of Sardinia.

The Tamil "Tigers" in Northern Sri Lanka: Origins, Factions, Programmes
Creators: name: Hellmann-Rajanayagam, Dagmar
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: Since 1983, the 'Tamil problem' in Sri Lanka has captured the headlines of the intemational press and the attention of the world public. The origins of the Tamil movement can, however, be traced back to the communal organizations of the Tamils from before Independence. When it became clear in the early 70s that the Tamils' efforts to gain a measure of security and special rights as a minority would be of no avail, a younger generation took to violent means to achieve their objectives. There are mainly two guerilla groups who command the situation in Jaffna at the moment: the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Ealam (LTTE) and the People's Liberation Organization of Tamil Ealam (PLOT). The LTTE has, for the purpose of the peace talks in Thimpu, allied itself with three smaller groups in the ENLF (Ealam National Liberation Front), while the PLOT inclines to the TULF (Tamil United Liberation Front). All groups, however, profess to pursue Marxist-Leninist goals in their fight for liberation, but there exist decisive differences over strategy and tactics. At the same time, all groups have a strong ethnic-nationalist bias and stress the significance of Tamil culture, language and tradition. The guerilla groups will remain a decisive factor in the attempts to reach a peaceful solution to the ethnic crisis in Sri Lanka for some time to come.

Chester Bowles as U.S. Ambassador in India: 1951-1953
Creators: name: Gupta, Surendra K.
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: Chester Bowles, who served as U. S. Ambassador in India during the last two years of the Truman Administration, conducted his diplomacy on the premise that rather than forcing India to side with the U.S., Washington should accept New Delhi's non-aligned policy and help its democratic experiment by participating in its economic development. This, in the long run, would persuade India to move closer to the West. He and his family also conducted a highly visible public diplomacy by mingling with the Indian people at different levels. Indian leaders, including Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, responded warmly to his overtures. India also decided to accept the provisions of the U.S. Mutual Security Pact. It, however, reacted coolly to Russia's support of Kashmir in January 1952, and spurned Soviet offers of aid made at the International Economic Conference in Moscow in April 1952. If the Bowles approach had continued under the new Eisenhower Administration, it is unlikely that Nehru wouldhave responded as warmly as he did to Moscow's moves after 1953, but Washington decided to replace Bowles and soon devised an Asian military alliance which India opposed and Pakistan eagerly joined. Thus, the abandonment of the highly successful Bowles approach paved the way for Soviet-Indian rapprochement.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Do Women Work in India? A Review of Women's Studies on Women's Work
Creators: name: Scheu, Hildegard
Publisher: name: Internationales Asienforum
Year: 2017

description: This review of Women's Studies in India provides a brief synopsis of the major issues and findings of research undertaken in the last ten years on women's economic participation. Special attention has been paid to several conceptual and methodological problems and biases in the estimation and recording of women's work. Recent data provides strong evidence that the economic contribution of women is not marginal; on the contrary, it is essential for the survival of their families, thereby playing a crucial role in the maintenance of the prevalent subsistence economy in India. The bulk of subsistence labour is done by women, who work as a rule many more hours than men. The characteristics of women's work, i .e. that a good deal of it is carried out at home, that strictly economic activity is integrated with household work, and that their subsistence work is normally unpaid, conceal their economic contribution - it tends to be "invisible", unrecorded and unrewarded. Analyses of the increasing participation of women in agricultural wage labour within the context of their low and declining participation in the labour force support the hypothesis of an increasing impoverishment of a considerable part of the rural population, thus forcing women into wage labour. Studies on the impact of agricultural development on women have revealed that current development strategies have exacerbated the discrimination against women as regards access to land and other means of production, skilled jobs, employment training and income.
