 | | | | Rediscovering an Old Relationship: Taiwan and Southeast Asia's Long, Shared History Contemporary impressions of Taiwan's relations with Southeast Asia tend to focus on flows of labor, capital, tourism, and marriage. Countries like Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Thailand carry the impression that they are the origins of cheap, sometimes easily exploitable, migrant labor for employers in Taiwan. Many people in Taiwan also see the former two countries as sources of brides for lower-income men. These same countries, along with Cambodia and, to a lesser degree, Malaysia, are locations where Taiwanese capital is invested in factories for low-cost labor, proximity to... |

| The Degeneration of Contemporary Mindfulness.doc The exponential growth of mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) in recent years has resulted in a marketisation and commodification of practice – popularly labeled 'McMindfulness' – which divorces mindfulness from its ethical origins in Buddhist traditions.

In Mexico being a woman (all that are identified as such, and not based on a biologist notion) is... |

In this sense, I aim to investigate how social construction of gender is related to blurred boundaries. In this sense, I focus on Judith Butler's idea of... |
