Men's Marriage Trends in Asia
Focusing on men's negotiation of traditional norms and new gender dynamics amidst rapid social changes, the current study reveals nuanced trends and inter-regional heterogeneity in marriage behavior of men during the past decades in Asian societies. Since the 1970s, marriage age for men across Asia has risen and the slope of change is especially sharp in East Asia; while men in East and Southeast Asia increasingly remain single in their 30s and e…

Vicissitudes of Happiness”
You are a recognized scholar in the field of literary studies, with a predilection for 19 th century American authors.Your work has notably focused on the notion of failure, which at first sight appears rather contrapuntal to that of happiness.How can these two essential ideas connect?GAVIN JONES -A good example of a work of 19 th century American literature that entwines apparently antagonistic ideas of failure and happiness is Herman Melville's…
The Cambridge Companion to the Literature of the American Renaissance
The American Renaissance has been a foundational concept in American literary history for nearly a century. The phrase connotes a period, as well as an event, an iconic turning point in the growth of a national literature and a canon of texts that would shape American fiction, poetry, and oratory for generations. F. O. Matthiessen coined the term in 1941 to describe the years 1850–1855, which saw the publications of major writings by Hawthorne, M…

International marriage in East and Southeast Asia
This paper gives an overview on international marriage in East and Southeast Asia. It first reviews the available data on the incidence and trends of transnational marriage. It then discusses the factors generally cited as contributing to the rising incidence of international marriage in the region: the increased mobility of population, particularly with respect to tourism, business travel, short-term employment and international study; and marri…
An economic survey of northern Sulawesi
The separation of North Sulawesi and Gorontalo into two provinces in 2001 complicated the issue of making regional autonomy work for northern Sulawesi, a region far removed from Indonesia's centre of power. Although the region had come through the economic crisis relatively well, the over-reliance on coconuts and the lack of a focus for dynamic development remained a challenge. Tourism, mining and services were the most dynamic sectors but, for d…
Poverty, gender and literary criticism Reassessing Edith Wharton's The House of Mirth
Attention to the neglected theme of poverty in The House of Mirth offers a perspective on Edith Wharton that contravenes the leisure-class ethos in which critics tend to place her. Wharton's novel refigures a turn-of-the-century sociological discourse of poverty and dependence to undermine the absolute class ideologies pervading contemporary philanthropic writing about poor and working women. By defining poverty as a psychological condition that …

Asia's Family Planning Programs as Low Fertility Is Attained
The dramatic demographic changes in Asia during the three decades from 1970 to the end of the twentieth century were matched by major changes in government population policies and programs, fertility declines occurred in widely different economic, sociocultural, and political settings. The extent to which they were attributable to family planning programs, established in most countries of the region by 1970, is hotly debated. The 1970s were the h…

Relativamente, pocos intentas se han hecho para investigar el efecta de diferentes tendencias de la fecundidad sobre el subsiguiente crecimiento, la composición por edades y el cambio en la fuerza de trabajo en los paises subdesarrollados. Aún menor atención se le ha prestado a la interrelación entre tendencias alternativas de fecundidad y trayectorias alternativas de avance educacional, en la determinación de la “calidad” y cambio de la fuerza d…
