  • In Pursuit of Happiness, Bhutan Opens to Globalization and Business
    In Pursuit of Happiness, Bhutan Opens to Globalization and Business Kimberly A. Freeman, Ph.D. Mercer University Katherine C. Jackson Mercer University ABSTRACT The Kingdom of Bhutan, a small country situated on the border between China and India, has in recent years become a constitutional democratic monarchy. As part of its 2008 constitution, Bhutan committed to promote conditions that would enable the pursuit of Gross National Happiness. The country thus initiated an effort to improve the quality of life and happiness for its citizens and has embraced globalization far more than previously through attracting business, tourism, and communications. The author’s herein address some of the initiatives provide the context within which these efforts have arisen. Keywords: Bhutan; Gross National Happiness (GNH); Globalization; Constitutional democratic monarchy 1. Introduction In 2006, the 4th King of Bhutan, Jigme Singye Wangchuck, decided he wanted to open Bhutan up to the world and usher in modernization. Forty years ago, in 1972, Bhutan’s fourth king stated that “Bhutan should pursue Gross National Happiness (GNH) rather than Gross National Product (GNP)…with an emphasis not only on economic growth, but also on culture, mental health, social values, compassion, and community” (Sachs, 2011, p. 2) He chose to abdicate the throne to his eldest son and announced Bhutan would hold its first general elections in 2008. His son, King Jigme Khesar Namgyal Wangchuck, took the throne of the new democratic Bhutan on December 14, 2006. Jigme Yoser Thinley was elected prime minister in the election, and Bhutan’s constitution was ratified on July 18, 2008. The concept of GNH has a very long history in Bhutan.

  • Chapter 5 Culture and Tradition in Opposition to Westernisation
    Chapter 5: Culture and Tradition in Opposition to Westernisation This chapter aims to understand the different discourses about modernisation, culture and tradition which exist among young people in Bhutan. Following Bourdieu’s framework, the chapter will examine the universe of discourse and the universe of the undiscussed by deconstructing both “modernisation”, and “culture and tradition”. In order to provide the setting of the multiple discourse in Bhutan this chapter firstly describes the background to the different kinds of education system which operate within the society. There are three kinds of education in Bhutan, namely English medium education, Dzongkha medium education and monastic education. The social context of each educational system will be discussed in terms of their influence on an individual’s career scope. The first part of this chapter also examines this social context in relation to Bourdieu’s idea of “mode of domination”, a perspective which provides several historical and theoretical insights. Secondly, I will introduce discourses on modernisation, culture and tradition. By deconstructing perceptions of “modernisation” and “Bhutanese culture and tradition”, the different opinions of young people will be examined. The ways in which young people criticise other people’s opinions and defend their own point of view will be investigated and the background/motivation of each discourse will be examined using Bourdieu’s framework. The last part of the chapter will investigate the universe of the undiscussed, the doxa, and its background. 5.1 Contexts of multiple discourse Modern English medium education is the dominant mode of education today and encompasses the largest number of schools and students of the three types of system.

S: I wear my school uniform, of course. T: Yes, of course you do. Look at the pie chart on page 36. As you know, most Japanese high schools have school uniforms. ②How many senior high schools have a school uniform? S: 81% have school uniforms. T: Correct. Actually, most Japanese high schools and junior high schools have school uniforms. ②What percent of Japanese people wore school uniforms during their school days? S: More than 95% of them did. T: That’s right. In Japan, most Japanese people wore school uniforms when they were students. T:【Advanced】Look at these two numbers. Why are these two numbers different? Why do you think the second one is higher than the first one? S: Because the first one is about high schools, but the second one shows junior and high schools. I think wearing a school uniform is more popular in junior high schools. T: Good notice! Sometimes you have a choice to wear private clothes even when your school has a school uniform.

  • Wallace's Help: the Many People Who Aided A. R. Wallace in the Malay Archipelago
    JMBRAS, JUNE 2018 VOL 91 PART W 1, ALNULACEMBER’ S314 H,E pp.LP 41–68| 41 Wallace’s Help: The Many People Who Aided A. R. Wallace in the Malay Archipelago John van Wyhe Abstract Alfred Russel Wallace was a quintessential Victorian collector-naturalist, remembered for his eight years of collecting throughout the Malay Archipelago, today’s Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and East Timor. Written accounts almost always note that Wallace collected 125,660 natural history specimens, but almost no one mentions that he had a great deal of help in assembling this vast collection. His published and unpublished writings contain references to an array of hired assistants, boatmen, porters, cooks and guides. Along with the well-known assistants usually mentioned, Charles Allen and Ali, hundreds of local people helped Wallace by showing him where local animals lived and explaining how they behaved, and they procured the vast majority of the vertebrates in his collection. This article suggests that at least 1,200 individuals helped Wallace in one way or another, and the number could easily have been twice as large. The Author John van Wyhe (BA, MA, PhD (Cantab), FLS) is a historian of science at the Department of Biological Sciences, a Fellow of Tembusu College at the National University of Singapore, and a Professorial Fellow at Charles Darwin University, Australia. E-mail: [email protected] Keywords Victorian collecting, native assistants, colonial Indonesia, Netherlands Indies, A. R.

Breuker ThE FAILINGS OF SUCCESS: THE PROBLEM OF RELIGIOUS MEANING 60 IN MODERN KOREAN HISTORIOGRAPHY – Kenneth Wells HISTORY AS COLONIAL STORYTELLING: YI KWANGSU’S HISTORICAL 81 NOVELS ON FIFTEENTH-CENTURY CHOSON˘ HISTORY – Jung-Shim Lee LiST OF CONTRIBUTORS 106 ISSUING THE FIRST VOLUME OF KOREAN HISTORIES The reasoning behind the creation of this new, biannual peer-reviewed journal, Korean Histories, has proceeded from a simple idea: that the creation of history in the sense of rep- resentations of the past is a social activity that involves many more individuals and groups than the community (or rather communities) of professional historians and, of course, long predates the nineteenth-century appearance of historiography as an academic specialism in the context of the rise of modern nation-states. The involvement of other actors becomes even more obvious if one considers the many ways history actually functions in human societies. Because representations of the past in some form or another are judged to be socially relevant, historical representations are not the exclusive preserve of professional historians; in fact, historical representations are also produced by novelists, film makers, painters, sculptors, journalists, politicians and members of the general public, and are part and parcel of the discourse of many social and political debates. It is probably as difficult to imagine a society that does not in some way represent its past(s) as it is to imagine a society without any form of religion, even if one may doubt the reality of what is represented or of the objects of worship.
