  • Ethnic Diversity, National Unity and Multicultural Education in China*
    US-China Education Review A 5 (2011) 726-739 Earlier title: US-China Education Review, ISSN 1548-6613 Ethnic Diversity, National Unity and Multicultural Education in China* Samuel Hinton Eastern Kentucky University, Richmond, USA The purpose of this paper is to review ethnic diversity, national unity and multicultural education in China with graduate students in a multicultural education course and pose some questions for discussion. China is a rapidly developing multiethnic country facing several challenges, including pollution, growing income inequality and low political participation of ordinary citizens. These can threaten social stability. In addition, China must address ethnic conflict, particularly in urban, autonomous and border regions. The Chinese government is advocating national unity education in the school and college curriculum to help address these some of these issues. Multicultural education could provide a framework for addressing social, economic, political and educational inequalities in China. Excerpts from different sources provide information on relevant issues. The instructor could distribute this material to students to read before the lesson, and/or, use his/her own material. Teachers in China and other countries should: (1) avoid teaching a hidden curriculum; (2) understand the characteristics of a culturally assaultive classroom; (3) learn how to prepare a multicultural curriculum; (4) set objectives while using a multicultural education model; (5) involve parents in the education of children; and (6) work on changing their attitudes. Some ideas for teaching multi-culturally are listed in seven Tables. Keywords: ethnic diversity, national unity, multicultural education, China Introduction The purpose of this paper is to discuss topical and pedagogical perspectives on ethnic diversity, cultural sustainability, national unity education and multicultural education respectively in the Peoples Republic of China (hereafter referred to as China).

  • ENTREPRENEURIAL WAY to COOL the EARTH I. Introduction
    Hitotsubashi Journal of Commerce and Management 44 (2010), pp.1-11. Ⓒ Hitotsubashi University ENTREPRENEURIAL WAY TO COOL THE EARTH ＊ TAKEO KIKKAWA I. Introduction This paper examines how we can tackle global climate change problems. There are two main approaches, one is based on government regulations and the other is based on innovations by the private sector. The G8 Summit and the Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP) regularly discuss the regulatory approach. This paper, however, discusses the importance of the entrepreneurial approach. On July 8-10, 2009, the 35th G8 Summit held in LʼAquila, Italy, agreed to an 80% reduction of greenhouse gas in advanced countries by 2050. This “advanced nations 80% reduction plan” is closely connected with the “global 50% cut concept” called the “Cool Earth 50” Plan. On May 24, 2007, then Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced the “Cool Earth 50 Plan” at an international conference titled “Asian Future.” The plan presented a long-term strategy to cope with global warming issues, and upheld the following two purposes: (1) Cutting global greenhouse gas emissions to half the current level by 2050, and (2) Presenting a long-term vision for developing innovative technologies and building a low-carbon society. The Cool Earth 50 Plan also proposed three principles for establishing a post-2013 (i.e. post Kyoto Protocol) framework, as follows. (a) All major emitters must participate, thus moving beyond the Kyoto Protocol, to achieve a global reduction of emissions; (b) The frameworkmust be flexible and diverse, taking into consideration the circum- stances of each country; and (c) The frameworkmust achieve compatibility between environmental protection and economic growth by utilizing energy conservation and other technologies.

(Photo: Shinichi Kuno/JICA) Japan’s Official Development Assistance White Paper 2009 Published by Ministry of Foreign Affairs 2-2-1 Kasumigaseki Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100-8919 JAPAN Tel: +81-3-3580-3311 Printed in Japan on recycled paper March 2010 Foreword Since I assumed the office of Minister for Foreign Affairs in September 2009, I have been thinking about how Japan, in pursuing its foreign policy based on the understanding and trust of the Japanese people, should promote international cooperation to achieve peace and affluence for the people of the world and to allow the people of Japan to fully appreci- ate peace and affluence. In the present international community, a number of issues remain unsettled. While the global economy appears to have emerged from the worst stage of the crisis, it is still struggling on the path to recovery. It is also the harsh reality that many people around the world suffer from hunger and disease, conflict, climate change, and natural disasters such as earthquakes, and live hard lives in which they can hardly maintain their dignity as human beings. For example, in January 2010, many people lost their lives in the large-scale earthquake in Haiti. Japan, as an earthquake-prone country, will contribute actively to Haiti’s reconstruction, making good use of its knowledge and experience.

Recent progress regarding the production of alternative liquid fuels is described with a focus on catalyst development. Fuels for spark ignition engines as well as diesel fuels are considered and their potentials regarding the reduction of harm- ful emissions are addressed. Two main strategies are described. The first implies production of synthesis gas from renew- ables or CO2 and subsequent synthesis of methanol or dimethyl ether. Both can be further converted to a series of valuable fuels, e.g., high-quality gasoline or oxymethylene ethers. The second strategy comprises the production of ethanol and its conversion to gasoline.
