The once popular “ethnic group” connotation of “nation” has been dropped, while the “state-nation” connotation has become increasingly prominent. The change can be attributed to the efforts of Chinese intellectuals who wished to redefine the word—an endeavor which began nearly 100 years ago. The dynamics behind this redefinition has arisen from a nationalist desire to eliminate the threat to the territorial unity of China brought about by the idea of “national self-determination.” By manipulating the politics of meaning, that is, redefining “nation” as “state-nation,” Chinese intellectuals have eventually converted the original separatist slogan into a slogan of maintaining national unity.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 2","pages":"Pages 100-106"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49303765","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}

Professionalized training courses have started up and bio-medical doctors and nurses are the largest group of trainees enrolled in various programs. They are also the largest group of service providers cum trainers in the formal and private healthcare system. Based on a qualitative study approach, this study conducted face-to-face interviews with a questionnaire among trainees and practitioner cum trainers at the Ateneo de Manila University, the SMIC Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the St. Luke Medical Center- Quezon City, and the St. Luke Medical Center-Global City. This study finds that biomedical doctors and nurses from various ethnic groups have switched to practice acupuncture not only because of their fascination with Chinese medicine but also to respond to the market demand. Their entry is driven by a range of factors including, but not limited to: financial incentives, the limitations of biomedicine and the advantages of acupuncture, family tradition, and the idea of holism that is attached to Chinese medicine. The advantages to becoming an acupuncturist appear to be professional, economic and personal despite the challenges regarding the social and political circumstances. This paper concludes that biomedical professionals are in control of Chinese medicine specialties, which are being professionalized in the Philippines, and are making the industry a private multicultural and urban middle-class phenomenon, thus fulfilling the demand created by the market economy.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 1","pages":"Pages 1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45220561","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}

This article illustrates ways in which children construct and embed their gender identities through play and within playground spaces. The findings of this study speak the geography and spatial organizations of the public playgrounds in Jakarta that nourish male hegemonic practices, which impacted girls’ participation in play. Interestingly, this hegemonic culture was also reinforced by both the physical features and social structures of the playgrounds. We argue it is time to design and inject gender-sensitive policy into public playgrounds, wherein all children can equally participate in play and access their playground spaces.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 1","pages":"Pages 32-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43306278","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}

Korea has one of the highest suicide rates in the world, especially among the student-aged bracket. More specifically, I contend that the Korean education system creates a fatalistic social environment for many Korean students. I argue that fatalistic suicide is the most appropriate suicide-type to theoretically classify these suicides when juxtaposed with the other three types. Moreover, this paper discusses fatalism in Korea in relation to its possible socio-emotional and psychological effects on Korean students, making for an approach that attempts to address the gap between social forces and individual behavior.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":45675,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Social Science","volume":"51 1","pages":"Pages 43-53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49433982","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}

Across India, the fertility of women is celebrated through rites and rituals that commence at menarche and find reiteration at festivals and wedding ceremonies.
