Research on Cultural Dimension of Natural Disaster:A Literature Review

Culture provides an important perspective to understand society. It is one of the key factors that impact how people behave themselves, interact with one another, view the world; what they believe and value. Therefore, a good understanding of public disaster awareness and disaster coping is impossible without taking their culture context into consideration. Since the 1960s, cultural dimension in disaster issues and/or disaster reduction practices has been attracting increasingly attention; many empirical or theoretical explorations have been reported. This review aims to give an overview of research progresses on how culture impacts public awareness and coping of disasters, and analyze the corresponding implications for disaster research and disaster reduction practice. This review summarizes that: ①There is unanimous consensus on public awareness and coping of disaster, which are affected by their culture context. While the knowledge about the ways and degree of impact is still limited, further research is warranted. In addition, more systematic and in-depth studies conducted from cross-cultural perspectives are needed to design to further explore the origins of variance in public disaster awareness and coping, and to what extent from cultural differences. ②Research on public awareness of disaster, emergency response and recovery indicated that culture might have double-side impacts on disaster management—sometimes cultural factors such as value, norm, custom and belief might lead to people more vulnerable than the others, even could be the root causes, but they could also be the source of people’s resilience to disaster in some cases. How to identify those positive and negative impacts, then develop cultural-oriented disaster management policy is a challenge issue, which need special attention. ③There is an increasing acknowledgement that local knowledge and disaster subculture could play an important role in public disaster coping, while the lacking of the awareness of the value of local knowledge, the change of lifestyle, and the impact from external culture pose a threat to the inheritance of some local, traditional disaster coping strategies. So exploring how to conserve, protect, identify, document them, then combine them with modern science and technology should and will be the focus of relevant studies. On the bases of these summarizations, in terms of cultural dimension of natural disaster research in China, systematic and in-depth studies are needed to explore how Chinese culture affects public disaster awareness and coping, what cultural resources can be used in disaster (risk) reduction and for building and enhancing disaster resilience, and how to use them.

亚心形扁藻培养基的筛选与优化

在500mL三角瓶中对亚心形扁藻培养基的筛选与优化结果表明,原“海洋三号”培养基中需添加0.8 g/L的NaHCO_3,且 K_2HPO_4的浓度需由原来的 0.01g/L调整为 0.06 g/L。10 L全自动封闭式光生物反应器分批培养结果表明,优化后的“海洋三号”培养基不仅可加快亚心形扁藻的生长速率而且可延长生长时间,培养 4 d时最高藻细胞密度可达 426×10~4细胞/mL,比原“海洋三号”培养基的最高培养密度提高42％。优化后的“海洋三号”培养基为亚心形扁藻的最适培养基。     

Programming beauty and the absence of Na Lao: popular Thai TV and identity formation among youth in Northeast Thailand

People living in the northeast of Thailand interchangeably label themselves and are labelled by others as Isan, Thai Isan, Lao Isan, Thai or Lao, depending on the ethnic, political, social or familial nuances of any given situation. I use the term Lao Isan to refer specifically to Isan people of Lao origin or ethnicity. Lao Isan are subject to complex and often competing notions of Isan-ness, Lao-ness and Thai-ness by insiders and outsiders. Using data derived from an ethnographic study of popular Thai television and Lao Isan youth (aged 17–25) living in the city of Khon Kaen and the town of Mahasarakham in northeast Thailand in 2002, this paper explores contemporary and co-existing interpretations of Isan identity or Khwampenisan among Lao Isan youth in relation to self-image and connections with national understandings of physical beauty as they are perpetuated in Thai-produced television programs.

刀郎文化旅游区开发构想——以喀什经济特区为背景

随着我国文化旅游的快速发展及喀什经济特区设立,地处喀什和阿克苏等地区的刀郎文化逐渐成为关注的重要内容。刀郎文化在其形成过程中不断融合蒙古族等其他民族的文化因子,逐步发展成为维吾尔民族独特的地域文化,在我国目前大力发展文化旅游的背景下,建立刀郎文化旅游区具有重要的现实意义。在对刀郎文化旅游区建立的必要性进行分析的基础上,从机遇、知名度和基础3个角度探讨了刀郎文化旅游区建立的可行性。在喀什经济特区背景下建立刀郎文化旅游区,需要打破行政区划限制,运用前台-帷幕-后台理论,设立三级支撑系统,彰显刀郎文化特色,突出民族和谐,并使刀郎文化旅游区与喀什经济特区进行整合式发展。
