Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 SUMMARY In the literature on Somali grammar the exponents of gender and number have been given much attention, while the declensional system has passed almost entirely unnoticed* There are two main reasons for this gap: the use of the inadequate traditional techniques of description and the failure to examine the whole range of accentual patterns in Somali nouns* The aim of this thesis, which is a result of over twelve years of research into the language, is to fill the gap in the present knowledge of Somali by providing formulations concerning the nature of Somali declensions, and by describing their exponents and distribution* Moreover, the use of a special descriptive framework is demonstrated in the handling of the data* Although this framework has been developed ad hoc to suit the descriptive needs of the language and has been used here for the first time, the methodological approach is not entirely new and has been used by Kenneth L* Pike, Charles C* Pries and the three authors of the Oxford Advanced.

  • Imposing Nationalism on Diaspora Peoples: Korean Chinese in the Master Narrative of Chinese Nationalism
    Imposing Nationalism on Diaspora Peoples | 56 Imposing Nationalism on Diaspora Peoples: Korean Chinese in the Master Narrative of Chinese Nationalism Peng Hai, UCLA ABSTRACT One of the most challenging aspects of the historiography of modern nation states is how to write diaspora peoples of an immigrant past into the national history, especially when the diaspora settlement pre-dates the birth of the modern nation state itself. The Korean Chinese as a minority nationality in today’s People’s Republic of China exemplify the myriad issues that occur when nationalistic historiography seeks to override and sanitize an uneven past. By looking at the impulse of Chinese nationalistic historiography in appropriating the subaltern past of Korean Chinese, this paper exposes and problematizes the master narrative of nationalism in history writing. Master narratives, by imposing "nationalism," a prototype modern set of values, retrospectively on a chaotic and contingent past render diaspora peoples particularly vulnerable to the sways of nationalism. Historians of diaspora peoples should therefore be critically aware that the past is full of contingencies that must be contextualized. Keywords: Diaspora Nationality; Tacit Taboos; Nationalistic Historiography; Chinese Nationalism; Chinese Ethnic Minorities; Korean Chinese; Master Narratives INTRODUCTION Typing the characters for “Yanbian independence” (yanbian duli) into China’s main search engine Baidu.com produces results that hint at the debate over whether or not Korean Chinese in the Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture want independence. The so-called Yanbian Independence Incident referred to in numerous blogs and Bulletin Board System (BBS) discussion forums is hard to pin down. As a matter of fact, one can easily get so lost in these pseudo-positions either accusing the Korean Chinese of their secessionist inclinations or coming to their defense that the alleged independence incident itself is ultimately subsumed if not simply non-existent.

  • Social Media Effects on Diaspora Tourism: a Case Study on Second Generation of Iranian
    Social media effects on diaspora tourism: A case study on second generation of Iranian immigrants in Stockholm By: Paria Izadi Supervisor: Saeid Abbasian Master’s Thesis in Tourism Studies, 15 Credits Södertörn University, School of Natural Sciences, Technology and Environmental Studies August 2020 Abstract The impact of social media in tourism industry is significant. This study examines the role, impact, and relationship of social media platforms among second generation Iranian Swedish in Stockholm as a segment of tourism market when travelling to Iran. In addition, the purpose of this study is to explore if social media has a motivational role for diaspora tourism on second generation of immigrants’ trip to their origin country. The study uses content analysis and online questionnaire to collect data of 22 second generation Iranian diaspora who have traveled to Iran at least once during their lifetime. Three themes were identified from the collected qualitative answers based on the objectives of the research: Iranian diaspora motivations to visit homeland, feelings, and traveler experience by social media. Findings demonstrate the social media platforms are working as a motivation-pull factor influencing second generation immigrants to visit Iran, in much the same as other pull factors do. Also, the results show the User Generated Contents (UGC) such as travelers generated reliable travel information and introduction of new destinations can persuade second generation of diaspora immigrants to go back to their origin country for another visit. Finally, the findings of this research have revealed that two outcomes of trip to Iran by second generation of Iranian immigrants are Visiting Friends and Relatives (VFR) and visiting tourism attractions.

Additionally, queries span relatively few—usually tens to massive growth in recent years. OLAP is a well-suited solution for at most a hundred—dimensions. These queries, and consequently, mining and analyzing this data. Providing insights derived from the cubes, can be sharded across a primary dimension. For WVMP, this analysis has become crucial for these websites to give members we can shard the cube by member id, as the product does not allow greater value. For example, LinkedIn, the largest professional social analyzing profile views of anyone other than the member currently network, provides its professional members rich analytics features logged in. Similarly, for WVTJ, the cube can be sharded by the job like “Who’s Viewed My Profile?” and “Who’s Viewed This Job?” itself because queries do not span across jobs. Each shard contains The data behind these features form cubes that must be efficiently a relatively small amount of data (a few megabytes, up to tens of served at scale, and can be neatly sharded to do so. To serve our megabytes), though there are many shards (160 million, one for growing 160 million member base, we built a scalable and fast each LinkedIn member, for WVMP).

  • Cyberspace and Gay Rights in a Digital China: Queer Documentary Filmmaking Under State Censorship
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Nottingham ePrints Cyberspace and gay rights in a digital China: Queer documentary filmmaking under state censorship Gareth Shaw and Xiaoling Zhang Correspondence Address: Gareth Shaw, School of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham NG7 2RD [email protected] Abstract Owing to China’s austere censorship regulations on film media, directors of films and documentaries engaging with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender themes have struggled to bring their work to domestic attention. Working outside of the state-funded Chinese film industry has become necessary for these directors to commit their narratives to film, but without approval of China’s State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, these artists have had little chance of achieving widespread domestic distribution of their work. However, advancements in new media technology and Web 2.0, ranging from digital video formats to Internet-based distribution via social media networks and video-hosting platforms, provide opportunities for Chinese audiences to access films and documentaries dealing with LGBT themes. This empirical study assesses how production, promotion and consumption of queer documentary films are influenced by the development of social media within Chinese cyberspace. Through close readings of microblogs from Sina Weibo this study combines analysis of contemporary research with digital social rights activism to illustrate contemporary discourse regarding film-based LGBT representation in China. Finally, the study comments on the role that documentary filmmaking plays in China’s gay rights movement, and discusses the rewards (and challenges) associated with increased levels of visibility within society.

  • Physical Activity and Social Network Use of Adolescents in Overweight and Obesity Treatment
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Physical Activity and Social Network Use of Adolescents in Overweight and Obesity Treatment Hagen Wulff 1,* , Yanping Duan 2 and Petra Wagner 1 1 Institute of Exercise and Public Health, University of Leipzig, 04109 Leipzig, Germany; [email protected] 2 Department of Sport Physical Education and Health, Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-(0)-341-97-316-23 Abstract: Tackling obesity among adolescents requires the optimization of existing obesity treatment strategies. For this purpose, social and personal circumstances, individual needs and behavior of therapy participants need to be analyzed to tailor aims, content and methods of therapy interventions to the target groups. A total of 432 obesity therapy participants between 11 and 17 years completed a written survey in a national multi-center study conducted in 2015. The data collection on behavior, in terms of physical activity, media use and sociodemographic variables, was based on questionnaires from the KiGGS, HBSC and JIM studies. The results show that participants were found to be physically active together with friends (75.5%), alone (41.4%) and in sports clubs (34.9%). Girls (OR 1.55) were less likely to participate in sports clubs. Social networks, especially YouTube, WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook, were widely used. However, differences emerged among sociodemographic groups (e.g., boys vs. girls) regarding the use of social network features. A third of participants Citation: Wulff, H.; Duan, Y.; reported that smartphone apps regularly encouraged them to exercise.
