Purpose: To share common interests in Ocean Sciences and to explore cooperative ways in supporting future research and education activities among GU8 members The means: (1) Ocean sciences cooperation and networking. (2) Research in marine biology & biotechnology. Meeting Date: September 10, 2012 Meeting venue: Xiamen University • Hosts: Dr. Minhan Dai Professor of Chemical Oceanography Director, State Key Lab of Marine Environmental Science Dean, College of Ocean & Earth Sciences Ms. Sissi Ren - Secretary for Foreign Affairs College of Ocean & Earth Sciences • Attendees: • Xiamen University: Dr. Kejian Wang, Dr. Xinhong Wang, Dr. Weiwei You, Dr. Rui Zhang, Dr. Nianzhi Jiao, Dr. Huasheng Hong, and others • University of Haifa: Dr. Dror Angel, Dr. Michael Krom • Inha University: Dr. Choul-Gyun Lee • University of Le Havre: Dr. Christophe Minier GU8 Marine Sciences Research: Challenges • Identify themes & frames for partnerships • Define research schemes: Funding & Synergy • Building Bottom-Up ties • Continuity & Sustainability: Initiatives Collaborative Research • The following areas of mutual interest were identified during discussions among the group: – Marine ecotoxicology - (GU8 leader Christophe Minier, Le Havre Univ) – Marine biotechnology (emphasis on microalgae) - (GU8 leader Choul-Gyun Lee (CG), INHA) – From watershed to coastal ocean (GU8 leaders Dror Angel & Mike Krom, Haifa Univ) – Marine biogeochemistry and microbial loop (GU8 leader Nianzhi Jiao, Xiamen Univ) Research schemes - Funds • National Research Programs • Bi-national research programs: China-Israel, China-Korea, France-Israel etc. Foundations for seed money supporting initial research links among partners; if successful, these could be expanded to larger projects with more partners MOST- ISRAEL – KOREA SCIENTIFIC RESEARCH COOPERATION ISF- Israel Science Foundation - Joint research Project with NSFC • Consortium collaborations: EU funding has become more flexible and some programs, e.g. ENVIRONMENT enables “third (non-EU) countries”, e.g. China, Korea, USA to participate as fully-funded partners.

Arab and Jewish Attitude: Toward a Palestinian State Abstract This article deals with the attitudes of Arabs and Jews in Israel regarding a Palestinian state. These include their images of such a state, the costs and benefits perceived if a Palestinian state were established, and the fears and desires involved, including the desire to keep contact with the Palestinian population in the various life domains. The article will attempt to analyze the extent to which the attitudes toward the establishment of a Palestinian state and its likely character derive from a rational calculus of expected costs and benefits ot one's own group.

Purpose: To investigate the association between long-term exposure to ambient air pollution and lung cancer incidence in Koreans. Materials and Methods: This was a population-based case-control study covering 908 lung cancer patients and 908 controls se- lected from a random sample of people within each Korean province and matched according to age, sex, and smoking status. We developed land-use regression models to estimate annual residential exposure to particulate matter (PM10) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) over a 20-year exposure period. Logistic regression was used to estimate odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI). Results: Increases in lung cancer incidence (expressed as adjusted OR) were 1.09 (95% CI: 0.96−1.23) with a ten-unit increase in 3 PM10 (μg/m ) and 1.10 (95% CI: 1.00−1.22) with a ten-unit increase in NO2 (ppb).

  • Religion and Politics in Contemporary Society
    _____________________________________________________________________________________ Program International Conference Religion and Politics in Contemporary Society University of Haifa Wednesday, October 17 and Thursday, October 18, 2018 Venue: Ofer Obseravatory and Senat (Eshkol Tower) Contemporary societies all over the world are currently witnessing a reemergence of religious actors, claims and slogans into the political and social sphere. Although long proclaimed dead in the wake of secularization theory, religion and religious self-identification seem to be on the rise in contemporary societies again. Individualization, political and social conflict as much as socio- economic stratification and crises of political legitimation all over the globe have made religion attractive as a tool of collective and individual empowerment, but also as a source of othering and political and social exclusion. From a sociological perspective, religion can be seen as a mode of identification, a way of social organization and a way to frame political claims. As such, it might be a way of identifying oneself and others and of construing sameness and difference and a way of positioning oneself in relation to others. Understood as a mode of social organization, religion can also be seen as a way of framing, channeling and organizing social relations in societies, also across national borders. Thus, religion can acquire transnational meaning and become a powerful resource to construct global communities in the name of religion. In contemporary societies all over the world, religion and politics seem to coexist, coproduce each other and collide in different contexts. Further, the role of the state and its means of self-narration play a crucial role of creating a national identity, using religion and religious repertoires (narrative, symbols) to legitimate and justify state power and specific forms of inclusion and exclusion.

  • Hyphenated Identity Development of Arab and Jewish Teachers: Within the Conflict Ridden Multicultural Setting of the University of Haifa
    Creative Education 2012. Vol.3, Special Issue, 1063-1069 Published Online October 2012 in SciRes (http://www.SciRP.org/journal/ce) http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ce.2012.326160 Hyphenated Identity Development of Arab and Jewish Teachers: Within the Conflict Ridden Multicultural Setting of the University of Haifa Rachel Hertz Lazarowitz1, Abeer Farah2, Moran Yosef-Meitav3 1Faculty of Education, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel 2School of Social Work, University of Haifa, Haifa, Israel 3City without Violence, Haifa, Israel Email: [email protected] Received July 9th, 2012; revised August 10th, 2012; accepted August 22nd, 2012 The theory of “hyphenated identity” (HI) argues that people living in complex political-social contexts construct HIs with various sub-identities. The University of Haifa (UH) is a meeting space and experience for people of different nationalities and religious backgrounds. Thus they live “on the hyphen”, between identities found in contrast vs. harmony. This study was initiated and carried out as part of a Cooperative Participatory Action Research (CPAR). Nineteen graduate students, all teachers in a multicultural society ridden with conflicts, were interviewed about their life stories, their family background and the develop- ment of their identity as shaping their personal and professional lives. At the end of the interview, they were asked to draw an Identity Drawing Map (IDM) and add an explanatory text. Finding indicated that many women transferred their complex identity in order to create a balanced and a challenge in their life; they became leaders in their communities and empower other women to follow them toward self actuali- zation.
