Meanings of Identity of the Post-2000s Inland Tibet Class : An Interview with Jinyan Zeng

What identity does the post-2000s Inland Tibet Class (ITC) generation mean? How do Sinophone-Tibetan films articulate the expression of such identity? How does affective visuality mediate the cultural, political, and gender identity formation of female artists of the post-2000s ITC generation?Jinyan Zeng, a researcher at the Centre for East and South-East Asian Studies, Lund University, Sweden, in

Resolving or intensifying crisis? Examining public perceptions of crisis public diplomacy in foreign and domestic contexts

This paper focuses on public diplomacy efforts during crises that involve multiple, transboundary, and often hostile publics. Traditionally, public diplomacy is employed to resolve crises (Zaharna, 2004) and bring about understanding from foreign publics (Pamment, 2012). Recently, some studies point to a new style of public diplomacy that intentionally causes and intensifies crises for the purpose

A Revolt of Memory - Debating China’s Great Famine in the age of social media

Discussion on social media and their contribution to democratisation is dominated by scholarship on the use of social media in mobilizing and coordinating grassroots opposition in contentious movements (e.g., the Arab Spring). Such approach, however, fails to recognize the power dynamics underlying everyday uses of social media. To fill this gap, this article provides one of the first studies on t

Framskjutna militärbaser eller semesterparadis? - En undersökning av huruvida militariserandet av artificiella öar utgör ett hot om våld

Kina har de senaste åren uppfört artificiella öar i ett område i det Sydkinesiska havet där flera stater hävdar suveräna anspråk. Öarna har utrustats med bland annat landningsbanor, stridsplanshangarer, kommunikationsanläggningar, hangarer för krigsskepp, vissa fasta vapen och annan militär utrustning. Den fråga som ska utredas genom uppsatsen är huruvida Kinas militariserande utgör ett hot om vål

Minerals and Magic Machines: A critical approach to modern agricultural technology and its connection to world-system flows of rare earth elements

This thesis connects agricultural technology (ag-tech) within a Danish context to a world system of production in which rare earth elements (REs) play a crucial role. These elements are essential for modern technology. By applying the concept of machine fetishism this thesis investigates how ag-tech in Denmark is fetishized through political discourse. The concept of fetishism here signifies that

An automated fluorescent single strand conformation polymorphism technique for high throughput mutation screening

OBJECTIVE: To develop a high throughput mutational detection method by multiple fluorescence-labeled polymerase chain reaction (PCR) products. METHODS: A total of 27 known mutations including 22 substitutions, 3 insertions (1, 2 and 7 bp) and 2 deletions (1 and 2 bp) in the hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-4 alpha, glucokinase and HNF-1 alpha genes were tested. During nested PCR, amplified fragment

Charge state evolution of uranium in electron beam ion trap

We present a calculation scheme with significant modifications and improvements for determining the ionization balance and the ion temperature evolution in an electron beam ion trap (EBIT). The scheme is applied to uranium and nitrogen ions using a specific set of EBIT operating parameters. The calculation results are compared to the experimental data. Rates for the individual atomic processes in

Photon angular distribution and polarization of radiative recombination

A systematic study is carried out on the angular distribution and polarization of photons emitted following radiative-recombination of bare and He-like ions of Ne, Ar, Ni and Mo with a unidirectional electron beam. In order to incorporate the screening effect due to inner-shell electrons, a distorted wave method is used. Scaling rules for polarization of the photon following radiative recombinatio
