ACADEMIA SINICA (ZHONGYANG YANJIUYUAN)

On the same day in April 1927 that the Guomindang (GMD Nationalist Party;) established its new government, it also decided to construct a new, centralized research academy, Academia Sinica, which was subsequently founded in June 1928. Its creators, the most prominent of whom was Cai Yuanpei (1867–1940), envisioned the new academy as an organization that would oversee and coordinate scientific as well as social scientific and humanistic research conducted in all of the Republic of China’s state-sponsored research institutes and universities, in addition to conducting research in its own institutes, to which the best and brightest of China’s academicians and independent researchers would be recruited. The intent of the new Nanjing government was to harness China’s intellectual power and put it to work whenever possible in the service of the sstructure tate.

1. China: Latecomer or late bloomer?

china1

China’s rise since the 1980s has shown contemporary and modern China in a new light. The reforms implemented after the passing of Mao Zedong have produced dramatic results. It is still too early to fully evaluate the overall impact of these reforms, but an economy with a sustained double-digit growth rate for some two decades cannot be brushed aside as an accident. Nor can China’s rise be viewed narrowly as an economic phenomenon, for without the aggregate energy and ingenuity of the people, the leadership of the country, or even the structure of the political system, China would not be where it is today. To be sure, there is much to be desired in China’s leadership and political system. Who can say that the nation would not have attained even greater achievements, or that the quality of life for its citizens would not have improved even more, had the mix of ingredients been somehow different?

Furthermore, we must also factor in the historical and cultural contexts. There is much to describe, analyze, and understand about modern China. We had a project – to write about this extraordinary country from 1800 to the present; topics range from the daily life of common folks to the ever-changing structure of the banking system that is part of the engine of China’s recent transformation.

O Dia Mundial da Terra

“Many people call Earth the “water planet” because about 70 percent of Earth’s surface is covered by water. But, only a small portion is available for human use. Of the world’s total water supply, 97 percent is located in the oceans and is salt water. Only about three percent is freshwater. More than three-quarters of Earth’s freshwater is frozen in glaciers. Of the less than one percent of Earth’s total water supply that is available for human use, much of it lies beneath Earth’s surface.”

Glencoe Science: The Water Planet

Ralph M. Feather Jr.

O “Dia Mundial da Terra” é comemorado pela 42.ª vez, no próximo dia 22, e dedicado ao tema da “Água”. O mundo foi alterado profundamente, pela ciência, desde o início da Revolução Industrial. Podemos lamentar o acontecido, mas não temos qualquer possibilidade prática de invertermos o sentido dos ponteiros do relógio e regrarmos a 1800. Se tal capacidade houvesse, não seriam muitas as pessoas que desejariam voltar a esse passado, que desconhecem. Ainda que, não possamos retroceder no tempo, e tendo apenas o futuro pela frente, todos os componentes da sociedade global, enquanto membros da espécie humana, tem de pensar seriamente na forma como iremos caminhar daqui em diante.

Estamos perante graves problemas que não se restringem ao domínio económico-financeiro, mas que vão mais além, e que contendem com a explosão demográfica e aquecimento do planeta, que teremos de minimizar, na impossibilidade de encontrar uma fórmula mágica que os solucione. São demasiado preocupantes os avanços da ciência que ameaçam cada vez mais a sobrevivência da espécie humana. Anteriormente tal ameaça, provinha da possibilidade de uma guerra nuclear generalizada. A hipótese de deflagração de uma guerra com essas características diminuiu, senão mesmo foi eliminada, desde o colapso da União Soviética.

Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools

Recomendo a leitura. Um dos melhores livros que li sobre o tema.
 
Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools"
Author: Maria Pallotta-Chiarolli
 
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield Publishers
Edition: (June 16, 2010) 
ISBN-10: 0742510360
Pages: 290
 
Synopses:

The first book of its kind internationally, Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools explores the experiences of bisexual students, mixed sexual orientation families, and polyamorous families in schools. For the first time, a book foregrounds the voices and experiences of these students and families who are 'falling into the gaps' or on the borders of a school's gay/straight divide in anti-homophobia policies and programs, and schools recognizing families as meaning either heterosexual couples, or, increasingly, homosexual couples.
