I am deeply thankful for all the support each person has given me through the years in the doctoral program. This is a journey I will never, ever forget. iii ABSTRACT Catalla, Pat Lindsay Carijutan, Kuwento/Stories: A narrative inquiry of Filipino American Community College students. Doctor of Education (Education), May, 2019, Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, Texas. The core of this narrative inquiry is the kuwento, story, of eight Filipino American community college students (FACCS) in the southern part of the United States. Clandinin and Connelly’s (2000) three-dimension inquiry space—inwards, outwards, backwards, and forwards—provided a space for the characters, Bunny, Geralt, Jay, Justin, Ramona, Rosalinda, Steve, and Vivienne, to reflect upon their educational, career, and life experiences as a Filipino American. The character’s stories are delivered in a long, uninterrupted kuwento, encouraging critical discourse around their Filipino American identity development and educational struggles as a minoritized student in higher education.

  • The State, Labor Import/Export, and Economic Restructuring in Taiwan
    THE STATE, LABOR IMPORT/EXPORT, AND ECONOMIC RESTRUCTURING IN TAIWAN by JOHNATHAN WALKER (Under the direction of Andrew J. Herod) ABSTRACT Taiwan has welcomed laborers from Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Malaysia since 1991, and has since added Vietnam. “Imported” foreign laborers are employed in a variety of contexts from construction and domestic service to factory work, at multiple skill levels. This study employs population, political economic, globalization, and state theory in combination with survey questionnaires, interviews, and official data to decipher the movements of laborers from “exporting”states to Taiwan. Major foci include the creation of a labor import policy, the role of the state in both labor supply and demand contexts, the evolution of the policy with special consideration for economic restructuring, social constructions of workers, and forms of resistance. Findings indicate a strong role for the state through the identification of seven points of importance in which the state is involved and creates a geography of international labor migration. An additional conclusion identifies the purpose for promotion of overseas employment: the de facto development of extraterritorial income-generating space. Key Words: International labor migration, role of the state, labor policy, economic restructuring.

  • Darren Emerson
    Darren Emerson El éxito de Darren Emerson le llegó pronto, ya a los 16 años era DJ en clubes. Le pilló la fiebre del vinilo desde el principio, obligándole a bajar desde su nativo Romford a las tiendas de discos londinenses. Inspirado por los primeros DJs de techno como Jazzy M y Colin Faver, a Darren no le importaba hacer el viaje de dos horas en tren para nutrir su interés en todo lo relacionado con el house y el techno. Su dedicación a ser DJ no tardó en dar sus frutos. Pronto era DJ residente en los clubs locales de Romford y a medida que corría la voz sobre su talento le empezaron a salir otras ofertas más jugosas: Limelights, The Milk Bar (ahora The Project), Venus... todos tuvieron el privilegio de tener al Emerson adolescente a los platos. Una ola de atención mediática prosiguió estas apariciones. Como es natural, a la prensa le interesaba la historia de un DJ tan joven causando tanto revuelo en el mundo de la dance music. Y durante todo este tiempo siguió con su trabajo diurno de runner en la Bolsa de Londres. Fue DJ del Mes tanto en i-D como The Face en un momento cuando la última era realmente puntera en lo que estaba ocurriendo en la cultura club inglesa y su influencia llegaba muy lejos. Así que no es de extrañar que después del retrato luminoso que le dieron en la revista Darren se viera inundado por ofertas.
