Yet, little was known about how individual identities shaped student interns’ interactions with people from other cultures. The study examines how five college students from Taiwan, who worked as interns in Singapore and Thailand prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, navigated cultural similarities and differences while personally and socially constructing their identities in relation to others. This study explored the way in which interculturality is constructed in international internships and how that can be problematic because of interns’ limited awareness of hierarchical power dynamics, cultural gender role differences, and their roles as foreigners, and interns. Additionally, findings suggest that universities that engage their students in international internships must offer a preparatory curriculum for students to explore and prepare for the cross-cultural issues that may occur in an international internship programs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"52 1","pages":"Pages 1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1568484923000394/pdfft?md5=1b576a6cc313c1a3c090ef143e8e34be&pid=1-s2.0-S1568484923000394-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134917377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study divided prejudice and discrimination in Japan into specific situations from the perspective of foreign migrants. Focus group interviews (FGI) were conducted with high-skilled migrants living in Japan. The thematic analysis produced examples of direct and indirect prejudice. Direct prejudice describes explicit and conscious exclusion. The codes identified in this study were institutional exclusion, social exclusion, and psychological exclusion. Indirect prejudice refers to an unpleasant feeling during communication, the cause of which cannot be instantaneously ascertained. The codes identified were distinction from the Japanese, forcing Japanese-style communication, and lack of understanding of other cultures. To clarify these ambiguities, this study was organized around the axes of direct and indirect prejudice against foreigners.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"52 1","pages":"Pages 17-26"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2024-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1568484924000030/pdfft?md5=1bbf26aebc97f68e128a891ed076c247&pid=1-s2.0-S1568484924000030-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140645898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Urban Muslim youth's spiritual unease is at an all-time high due to their scepticism of mainstream Islamic organisations, most of which are becoming more politically oriented. As a result, Salafism has become more popular as an alternative. Salafism has been successful in recent years in massifying Islamic discourse on social media platforms such YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, and even podcast sites. Furthermore, it has defined Islamic narratives in strategic urban locations such as the Central Business District, malls, and wealthier neighbourhoods to conjure the spirit of a new piety which urban Muslims are adopting more widely. With the ability to blend the pop culture of urban youth groups with the Islamic tradition of Arabism, urban Salafis are able to campaign for specific Islamic narratives and cultures in a hybrid style. Salafism was once thought of as an ideologically and culturally conservative movement, but it has now become a digital and modern native. Their ability to enlist urban celebrities, artists, content producers, filmmakers, and businesspeople who continue to engage in popular culture in a devout Salafi manner is evidence of all this. Based on the description provided above, this research will use a socio-anthropological method to further investigate the Urban Salafism issue in Indonesia.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 4","pages":"Pages 252-259"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42697931","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on the analytical framework of Hoffman and the experience of River City in Guangdong Province-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, we analyse the ontological, epistemological, and applicative knowledge practices of both industry and academia. Both parties acknowledge the inherent uncertainties in knowledge production. Risk discourse for knowledge practices reflects influences of market/market-like logic on industry-academia collaboration. Around the three dimensions, the contradictions revealed in their interactions are multiple. Accordingly, both parties seek consensus on knowledge outcomes by suspending ontological discussions of knowledge, conceding epistemological issues, and imagining applied consensus. Nonetheless, these acts hardly achieve the desired goal of knowledge advancement and create obstacles to the knowledge circuit.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 4","pages":"Pages 227-236"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1568484923000345/pdfft?md5=c303eb3ec491bede42b3b6e7d203c433&pid=1-s2.0-S1568484923000345-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46720960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
