  • Originally, the Descendants of Hua Xia Were Not the Descendants of Yan Huang
    E-Leader Brno 2019 Originally, the Descendants of Hua Xia were not the Descendants of Yan Huang Soleilmavis Liu, Activist Peacepink, Yantai, Shandong, China Many Chinese people claimed that they are descendants of Yan Huang, while claiming that they are descendants of Hua Xia. (Yan refers to Yan Di, Huang refers to Huang Di and Xia refers to the Xia Dynasty). Are these true or false? We will find out from Shanhaijing ’s records and modern archaeological discoveries. Abstract Shanhaijing (Classic of Mountains and Seas ) records many ancient groups of people in Neolithic China. The five biggest were: Yan Di, Huang Di, Zhuan Xu, Di Jun and Shao Hao. These were not only the names of groups, but also the names of individuals, who were regarded by many groups as common male ancestors. These groups first lived in the Pamirs Plateau, soon gathered in the north of the Tibetan Plateau and west of the Qinghai Lake and learned from each other advanced sciences and technologies, later spread out to other places of China and built their unique ancient cultures during the Neolithic Age. The Yan Di’s offspring spread out to the west of the Taklamakan Desert;The Huang Di’s offspring spread out to the north of the Chishui River, Tianshan Mountains and further northern and northeastern areas;The Di Jun’s and Shao Hao’s offspring spread out to the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, where the Di Jun’s offspring lived in the west of the Shao Hao’s territories, which were near the sea or in the Shandong Peninsula.Modern archaeological discoveries have revealed the authenticity of Shanhaijing ’s records.

Their making usually reflects a determination on the part of the director or star to see the artist as an alter-ego. Many of them were adaptations of successful literary works, which tempted financial backers by having a ready-made audience based on a pre-established reputation. The sub-genre’s development is explored via the grouping of films with associated themes and the use of case studies.

    On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E Minna Wu Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMIBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 @2013 Minna Wu All rights reserved ABSTRACT On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze-Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E. Minna Wu The Shandong region has been of considerable interest to the study of ancient China due to its location in the eastern periphery of the central culture. For the Western Zhou state, Shandong was the “Far East” and it was a vast region of diverse landscape and complex cultural traditions during the Late Bronze-Age (1000-500 BCE). In this research, the developmental trajectories of three different types of secondary states are examined. The first type is the regional states established by the Zhou court; the second type is the indigenous Non-Zhou states with Dong Yi origins; the third type is the states that may have been formerly Shang polities and accepted Zhou rule after the Zhou conquest of Shang. On the one hand, this dissertation examines the dynamic social and cultural process in the eastern periphery in relation to the expansion and colonization of the Western Zhou state; on the other hand, it emphasizes the agency of the periphery during the formation of secondary states by examining how the polities in the periphery responded to the advances of the Western Zhou state and how local traditions impacted the composition of the local material assemblage which lay the foundation for the future prosperity of the regional culture.

  • A Framework for Quality in International Higher Education: Policy and Practice in Chile As a Case Study
    A FRAMEWORK FOR QUALITY IN INTERNATIONAL HIGHER EDUCATION: POLICY AND PRACTICE IN CHILE AS A CASE STUDY Emeline Jerez orcid.org/0000-0001-6697-0745 Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2018 Melbourne Centre for the Study of Higher Education Melbourne Graduate School of Education The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT In a globalised environment, internationalisation has become increasingly important to the higher education sector, with varying rationales and intensities. Even though higher education has long had an international dimension, the elevation of internationalisation to one of its primary functions is evolving its character in many countries. An increased inflow of international students and greater academic collaborations, alongside intense competition, now characterise an international higher education arena where national boundaries become blurred. These blurred boundaries raise questions about protection of consumers and reputation for the quality of national systems. Like internationalisation, a focus on quality has become increasingly embedded in the higher education culture since the 1990s. Despite being contemporary processes, there are relatively few studies concerned with their convergence, particularly, the examination of the factors or variables explaining quality in international higher education. This study explores the main elements that contribute to success in international higher education at the system level. The study adopts a national, case study approach. Qualitative data is collected through document analysis, questionnaires to international experts and semi-structured interviews with stakeholders in Chile, the context of the case study. Based on an adaptive theory approach, the study constructs a framework for quality in international higher education following an iterative process that brings together the previous management theory of quality as continuous improvement and a novel theory emerging from the empirical data.

  • Socio-Territorial Conflicts in Chile: Configuration and Politicization (2005-2014)
    European Review of Latin American and Caribbean Studies Revista Europea de Estudios Latinoamericanos y del Caribe No. 104 (2017): July-December, pp. 23-46 www.erlacs.org Socio-Territorial Conflicts in Chile: Configuration and Politicization (2005-2014) Gonzalo Delamaza Universidad de Los Lagos Antoine Maillet Universidad de Chile Christian Martínez Neira Universidad de Los Lagos Abstract Within a context of intensifying socio-territorial conflicts in several countries, this paper analyses a database of 101 conflicts occurring in Chile between 2005 and 2014. These con- flicts emerged from specific territorial problems, were scattered throughout the country, and did not involve urban centres. The evidence examined here shows significant contentious activity in non-metropolitan territories during this period. These conflicts occur in different places, arise from local problems and articulate new actors into the political game. They have had an impact on the modification of public and private investment projects and can also bring broader political consequences. The paper widens the argument that extractivism is the source of these conflicts, and suggests that politicization processes have modified what was once a Chilean historical pattern of relatively centralized conflict articulated by traditional political actors. It also identifies some venues for future research to more accu- rately determine the political consequences of such conflicts. Keywords: socio-territorial conflicts, extractivism, social movements, impact, Chile. Resumen: Los conflictos socio-territoriales en Chile: Configuración y politización (2005- 2014) En el contexto de la intensificación de los conflictos socio-territoriales en diversos países de América Latina, se analiza un conjunto de 101 conflictos ocurridos en Chile entre 2005 y 2014.
