Decoding the Sino-North Korean Borderlands
Since the 1990s, the Chinese-North Korean border region has undergone a gradual transformation into a site of intensified cooperation, competition, and intrigue. These changes have prompted a significant volume of critical scholarship and media commentary across multiple languages and disciplines. Drawing on existing studies and new data, Decoding the Sino-North Korean Borderlands brings much of this literature into concert by pulling together a …
Dietary intakes, food behaviours and health indicators among Métis youth in Manitoba, Canada
Objective: Poor diets and food insecurity during adolescence can have long-lasting effects, and Métis youth may be at higher risk. This study, as part of the Food and Nutrition Security for Manitoba Youth study, examines dietary intakes, food behaviours and health indicators of Métis compared with non-Métis youth. Design: This observational cross-sectional study involved a cohort of adolescents who completed a self-administered web-based survey o…
Public Support for Migrant Entrepreneurship
Migrant entrepreneurship is viewed as a pathway to substantive social integration, one that makes host countries more prosperous in the process. Accordingly, scholars have studied the social context in which migrant entrepreneurs operate, and considered at length the range of policy options that governments can use to support their activities. Conversely, the issue of public attitudes to policies that support migrant entrepreneurship has been lar…
Why do democratic societies tolerate undemocratic laws? Sorting public support for the National Security Act in South Korea
This study investigates why anti-democratic laws persist in democratic societies, focusing on South Korea's National Security Act (NSA). Enacted in 1948, the NSA restricts freedom of expression and movement to deter pro-North Korea behaviour. Despite being at odds with the tenets of liberal democracy, the act remains in place. Existing public opinion data indicates modest to strong support for the law, but measurement concerns leave much to be de…
Public attitudes towards co-ethnic migrant integration
What can public attitudes towards the integration of co-ethnic migrants teach us about social integration in newly diverse societies? Research finds that South Koreans prefer co-ethnic migrants from culturally similar or desirable origins, but it says little about the integration of migrant groups. Existing data and qualitative studies suggest considerable barriers to fully incorporating otherwise preferred migrants. Focusing on integrating North…
The limits of ethnic capital
A substantial body of research has found that social desirability motivates respondents to overstate support for immigration when asked directly, but when provided an unobtrusive means of expressing preferences, support declines. In this paper, we ask whether South Koreans follow this pattern, especially with regards to co-ethnic migrants from North Korea and China. We use list experiments to determine whether observed levels of support for gener…
Decoding the Sino-North Korean Borderlands
Safety and efficacy of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine (AZD1222) against Sars-CoV-2
Background A safe and efficacious vaccine against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), if deployed with high coverage, could contribute to the control of the COVID-19 pandemic. We evaluated the safety and efficacy of the ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 vaccine in a pooled interim analysis of four trials. Methods This analysis includes data from four ongoing blinded, randomised, controlled trials done across the UK, Brazil, and South Afri…
Consequences of neoliberal traits in curriculum design; English influences and the implementation of moral education in schools in the United Arab Emirates
Testing explanations of ‘neoliberalism in education’, this article explores whether neoliberal policy facilitates curricula that include moral development for the ‘common good’, or whether unintended consequences actually eviscerate the very nature of moral education. England’s contribution to curriculum design in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has set planning within broadly accepted ‘market’ philosophies drawn from the ‘reforms’ of the 1980s. R…
Who should be admitted? Conjoint analysis of South Korean attitudes toward immigrants
South Korea is slowly but steadily becoming a country of immigrants. In 1998, there were barely 300,000 foreign residents in South Korea. As of 2018, there were more than 2.3 million. The immigrant population has yet to reach 5% of the total population, but it is predicted to rise significantly in the years to come. Despite the increase in newcomers, it is not well understood who native South Koreans prefer as immigrants and why. Are immigrant at…

Crash Landing on You and North Korea
Crash Landing on You (Sarang-ui bulsichak), a 16-episode drama on South Korean cable channel tvN in 2019-20 that was also released on Netflix, has drawn broad attention for its storyline featuring a South Korean heiress stranded in North Korea who falls in love with an elite military officer. Though the show invokes many formulae of South Korean dramas, it also offers a detailed portrait of North Korea, and, as such, is a crucial text for evaluat…
A Stage Set for Assimilation
This article analyzes the US Bureau of Indian Affairs model Indian school exhibit at the Chicago World’s Columbian Exposition as an artifact of spatial and social relations. It uses architectural drawings to examine how assimilationist ideals were spatialized and displayed in a functioning industrial school that structured education, race, and morality. At the same time, it considers the decorations of indigenous material culture and the resistan…

Equal Citizenship, Civil Rights, and the Constitution
The Privileges or Immunities Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment is arguably the most historically important clause of the most significant part of the US Constitution. Designed to be a central guarantor of civil rights and civil liberties following Reconstruction, this clause could have been at the center of most of the country's constitutional controversies, not only during Reconstruction, but in the modern period as well; yet for a variety of h…
West Country Households, 1500-1700
Essays on the development of the post-medieval house, its contents and decoration. During the last forty years, South-West England has been the focus of some of the most significant work on the early modern house and household in Britain. Its remarkable wealth of vernacular buildings has been the object of muchattention, while the area has also seen productive excavations of early modern household goods, shedding new light on domestic history. Th…
A ‘fair and ambitious’ climate agreement is not nearly enough
Peters et al (2015 Environ. Res. Lett. 10 105004) find that the INDCs submitted prior to the upcoming UNFCCC meetings in Paris are not nearly 'fair and ambitious' enough to achieve the goal of limiting global warming to <2 °C and that much greater attention needs to be paid to advanced energy technologies, without which climate goals are unattainable
How Authoritarian Regimes Maintain Domain Consensus
The North Korean government of Kim Jong-un is experiencing multiple simultaneous challenges to its legitimacy, but few could be more serious than the inflow and circulation of information in society. This paper uses three case studies to specifically examine how the North Korean state is responding to this danger by actively projecting narratives of transformation: “re-defectors,” sports, and Kim Jong-un’s court orchestra, the Moranbong Band. In …

Coarse and Fine Culturable Fungal Air Concentrations in Urban and Rural Homes in Egypt
The main objective of the present study was to assess culturable airborne fungal concentrations, and types in different seasons. Two-stage viable impactor samplers were used with malt extract agar medium as the collection media. Culturable airborne fungal concentrations were collected indoors and outdoors of 43 homes in urban and rural environments from November 2008 to October 2009 in Egypt. Fungal concentrations were significantly higher in the…
Now On My Way to Meet Who? South Korean Television, North Korean Refugees, and the Dilemmas of Representation
In 2011, the recently established South Korean broadcasting network Channel-A launched Ije mannareo gamnida (Now on My Way to Meet You), a program whose format brings together a group of a dozen or more female talbukja (North Korean refugees) on a weekly basis. These women interact with host Nam Hui-seok, an additional female co-host (or, in the earlier episodes, two), and a panel composed of four male South Korean entertainers. Episodes typicall…

The Use of English by Chinese Professionals in post-1997 Hong Kong
This paper presents the findings of a large-scale empirical study of the use of English by Chinese professionals in post-1997 Hong Kong. The study used three data collection methods: a questionnaire survey of 1475 professionals working at different levels in five key occupational fields in the public and private sectors, focus-group discussions, and case studies. The findings indicate that writing and (particularly) reading in English play an imp…

The findings are derived from a questionnaire survey of 1 475 professionals, focus-group interviews and case studies. The study found that English continues to function as the unmarked language of internal and external written communication in both the public and private sectors. Chinese professionals who work for f…

Recent Inflation
The paper investigates the causes of the recent inflation. It argues that money growth is not the 'cause' and that the factors which force the monetary authorities to 'accommodate' make the money supply an essentially endogenous variable. The 'underlying causes' of the recent inflation are divided into 'immediate' and 'secular' categories, the latter reflecting changes over time in economic structure which have an inflationary bias. The paper arg…

Labour Market Performance from an Employment Perspective
The paper evaluates labour market performance and Canada's commitment to high employment from two different perspectives. Evidence from the unemployment rate is compared with that provided by the 'employment ratio' the ratio of employment to the 'working age' population. Comparisons are made with us experience. Until the late I960's the two performance indicators tell roughly the same story. In the 1970's the picture changes as both Canada and th…

A cross‐section analysis of food insecurity in developing countries
Short‐term instability in food supplies continues to be a severe problem for many developing countries. From the viewpoint of an individual country, this problem arises primarily from fluctuations in domestic food production and in foreign exchange availability. The present paper aims to establish the magnitude and seriousness of the problem in a sample of 50 food deficit countries. It also aims to broaden the scope of discussion of the food secu…

On the Political Economy of Social Democracy
Weldon's writings address many of the themes that have preoccupied Canadian political economists over the last thirty years: unemployment, wage controls, inflation, pensions, privatization and social ownership, economic planning, social policy, the means and extent of state intervention, and the rise of neo-conservatism. On the Political Economy of Social Democracy stresses Weldon's recognition of the vital connection between social democracy and…
