A great number of new inventions and technologies are introduced to people around the world. The ways they live, communicate, learn, and practice also change according to the exposure to those new things. For scholars in the area of Humanities and Social Sciences, it is essential to understand those transformations and at the same time promote the understanding and knowledge about the root and heritage of the society, as the new concepts and phenomena have to co-exist with the root and the heritage. Therefore, one of our major responsibilities has to do with the promotion of research, especially on language, culture, and society which are cores of Humanities and Social Sciences. The body of knowledge derived from research will immensely foster self-understanding and understanding of the relation between language, culture, society, and people in the 21st Century. The International Conference on Researching Language, Culture, and Society will serve as a channel through which these agenda are transmitted from scholars to scholars and from scholars to the community. The international conference on Researching Language, Culture, and Society aims to promote research in the area of Humanities and Social Sciences and to create academic networks between scholars from different institutions. We believe that this conference will help us to better understand the transformations as mentioned above and to adjust ourselves to the changing world in both academic and social aspects.

  • Study Report on Situation of Home-Based Workers' Groups In
    Study Report on Situation of Home-based Workers’ Groups in Urban Areas and Target Groups under the Inclusive Urban Planning Project Submitted to Homenet South Asia Compiled by Foundation for Labour and Employment Promotion October 2010 Study Report on Home-based Workers’ Groups in Urban Areas October 2010 1 1. Background Home-based workers (HBWs)1 are generally poor, receiving low wages or income and working long hours, thus earning inadequate income to support their household expenses. These workers live in slum communities2 scattered in urban or suburban areas. As a result, it is difficult for them to organize. Their presence is virtually non-existent, not known or socially recognized, and not economically valued as a group of workers that contribute to the urban and national economy. Thus these HBWs have no participatory role in their local or community development planning. The Inclusive Urban Planning (IUP) Project is developed to build up and strengthen the capacity of HBW’s groups by supporting their organization in the form of membership- based organizations (MBOs)3. MBOs will act as representatives of the HBWs in presenting their problems and needs to government agencies so that these workers will be given a chance to participate in the urban planning process, which is suitable for their needs. This five-year Project (2009-2013) is carried out by Homenet Thailand and its collaborating non-governmental organizations. Homenet Thailand (HNT) was established in 1992 and registered as the Foundation for Labor and Employment Promotion in 2003. The Project’s major operation areas are Bangkok, Chiang Rai and Khon Kaen provinces.

  • An Integrated Land Use and Water Plan for Mahasarakham Province, Thailand
    An Integrated Land Use and Water Plan for Mahasarakham Province, Thailand A thesis submitted to the School of Planning of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Community Planning in the School of Planning of the School of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning 2013 by Yuwadee Ongkosit B.A. Geography, Chulalongkorn University, Thailand Committee Chair: David Edelman, Ph.D. Committee Member: Christopher Auffrey, Ph.D. Abstract This thesis identifies water-related problems that Mahasarakham Province, Thailand faces and the correlation between water and land use. Natural hazards are inevitable, and they ruin properties and cause changes to natural features. Two ways that the Thai government acts to mitigate their impact is to create or implement both structural and non-structural plans, but it heavily focuses on the first. The structural measures do not always relieve water-related problems. However, the non-structural measures can at least mitigate the effects posed on water resources. Land use and water resources are interconnected. One cannot separate one from another. Thus, this thesis also proposes an integrated water and land use plan that regulates the patterns of land use and prohibit certain uses at the national and local level. The proposed plan will help people better understand the interaction of land use and water resources. บทคัดย่อ วิทยานิพนธ์ฉบับนี้ ระบุปัญหาเกี่ยวกบนํั ้า ซึ่งจังหวัดมหาสารคาม ประเทศไทยประสบ รวมทั้งความสัมพันธ์ระหวางนํ่ ้าและการใช้ที่ดิน ภัยพิบัติทาง

  • Aslian: Mon-Khmer of the Malay Peninsula
    1 Aslian: Mon-Khmer of the Malay Peninsula. James A. Matisoff University of California, Berkeley Depending from the Southeast Asian mainland like “a long-necked bottle or an Indian club,”1 the Malay Peninsula lies in tropical splendor, separated from the island of Sumatra by the peaceful tidal waters of the Strait of Malacca. In the geological past, before the sinking of the Sunda Shelf, the west (‘Selangor’) coast of Malaya and the east coast of Sumatra were in fact connected by land—and at an even earlier period the two coastlines must have fit neatly together like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle (see Map 1). * This monograph was originally written in 1982-83, almost twenty years ago now, with the intention of incorporating it into the Mon-Khmer chapter of my long-suffering book, Languages of Mainland Southeast Asia. This book, to be published eventually in the Language Surveys series (familiarly know as the “green books”) by Cambridge University Press, is still far from completion, but will hopefully appear sometime during the 21st century. Meanwhile it has become clear that this study of the Aslian branch of Mon-Khmer is far too long and detailed to serve merely as part of a single chapter of a general book on Southeast Asian languages. However, in view of the fact that no other overall treatment of the Aslian languages has appeared in the past 20 years, perhaps the time has come to publish it separately. Since I am certainly no specialist in Mon-Khmer, I have obviously had to rely on the true masters of the field, especially the works of the two preeminent Aslianists, Gérard Diffloth and Geoffrey Benjamin, both of whom have been kind enough to approve of my attempts to summarize their research.
