"Hiyas At Haraya:” Ang Dinamika ng Kapital Mula sa Karanasan ng mga Mag-Aalahas sa Meycauayan, Bulacan
Full text link Ang pag-aalahas sa Meycauayan, Bulacan ay nagsilbing isa sa mga industriyang pangkabuhayan bukod pa sa mga produktong yari sa katad (balat), mga gawang-kamay, at pagpapanday. Layunin ng papel na siyasatin ang pag-aalahas sa pamamagitan ng dinamika ng kapital ni Pierre Bourdieu at balangkasin ang sistema ng industriya sa pamamagitan ng value-chain process ni Michael Porter. Natuklasan sa pag-aaral na ito ang mga dominanteng naratibo ng kultural kapital gaya ng paglinang sa kaalaman at kasanayang pampag-aalahas, naratibo ng panlipunang kapital mula sa mga kamag-anak, kakilala, at kaibigan, at naratibo ng ekonomikal na kapital na nagsilbing kukunang-yaman ng mga kalahok sa pagsisimula at pagtataguyod ng industriya. Napag-alaman din ang mga naratibo sa link ng operasyon na kumakatawan sa kasanayang pamplatero at mananara. Ipinapakita sa pag-aaral na ito ang ugnayang kliyente-mag-aalahas at naratibo ng katanyagan na nakapagpapatibay ng ugnayan na ito. Sinusuri rin ang mga naratibo ng pagawa, remedyo, at pasadya na pangunahing bentahe ng mga kalahok sa kapanatilihan ng buhay na industriya ng makasaysayang pag-aalahas. Nagsilbing mahalagang kultural na praktika at ideolohiya ang mga ito tungo sa mas makabuluhang kalinangang pambayan at lokal na industriyang kaakibat ng isang makasaysayang lugar
“Talaga ba? Sa ganda kong ‘to? Sir?”: Paniniyasat sa Pananaw at Karanasan ng mga piling Trans sa Deadnaming at Misgendering
No full textLayunin ng pag-aaral na masuri ang mga stressor na nararanasan ng piling trans women hinggil sa deadnaming at misgendering, mga epekto nito sa seksuwal na identidad, at pag-aanyo nito bilang microaggression. Bilang kuwalitatibo ang kalikasan ng pag-aaral, nagsagawa ang mga mananaliksik ng semi-structured interview sa limang trans women. Sinuri ang mga nakalap na datos sa pamamagitan ng tematikong analisis. Nasuri sa mga natuklasan ang kompleks na interaksiyon sa pagitan ng distal at proximal stressors. Lumutang ang deadnaming bilang makahulugang anyo ng diskriminasyon. Inilarawan ito ng ilang mga impormante bilang emosyonal at sikolohikong pasanin. May mga impormanteng tinatanaw ang deadnaming bilang isang impormasyonal na hadlang, bagaman lumutang din ito bilang direktang anyo ng imbalidasyon. Lalong pinapalalim ng kakulangan ng mga legal na proteksiyon ang mga hámong dulot ng deadnaming at misgendering. Ipinakikita ng pag-aaral na mahalagang palakasin ang edukasyon tungkol sa SOGIE, pagtibayin ang mga legalidad na makapagbibigay-proteksiyon sa lahat, at ipatupad ang mas ingklusibong mga patakaran upang labanan ang diskriminasyon, partikular sa mga trans woman.
(This study that focuses on deadnaming and misgendering aims to shed light on the effects of these forms of microaggressions as stressors that affect the sexual identity of select trans women. Given that the study is qualitative in nature, the researchers conducted semi-structured interviews to five trans women. The results and data gathered from the interviews were analyzed using thematic analysis. The complex interaction between distal and proximal stressors were uncovered from the analysis.Deadnaming was discovered as the prevalent and significant form of discrimination. This was described as an emotional and psychological burden by the informants. Other informants cited deadnaming as an informational hurdle although there were those who also cited it as a direct form of invalidation of their chosen identity. The lack of legislation and laws that protect and uphold the safety of trans women in the Philippines intensifies the challenges posed by misgendering and deadnaming. The study shows and echoes the need for a comprehensive and relevant need for SOGIE awareness and education, laws that protect everyone from SOGIE-related microaggressions, and more inclusive social environments that prevent discrimination, especially towards trans women.
Trade Unions in the Philippines: Struggle for Relevance Amidst Globalization and Technology
No full textPhilippine unionism and organized labor have been at the forefront of validating the cause of workers and advancing their rights and welfare. In addition to legitimizing the cause of labor, it has also led in the struggle for justice, equity and the improvement of working conditions for its members for more than a century now. But recently, a sharp weakening of unionism has been observed in the Philippines and in many parts of the world. This weakening is engendered by the integration of markets for globalization and the rapid advance of technology. These factors have irreversibly altered the work environment where unions operate and have threatened their relevance. This paper, therefore, examines how globalization and the advance of modernity and technology have further weakened trade unions and shaped its politics. Moreover, it examines an actual example of how pressures brought about by globalization and modernity manifesting in the establishment of labor control regimes in economic and export processing zones in the country, have weakened labor unions and undercut the bargaining power of organized labor
Taking Global Citizenship Education (GCED) Beyond the Classroom: Analyzing the Advocacy Projects of GCED-Trained Educators in the Philippines
No full textGlobal Citizenship Education (GCED) has recently become an emerging movement in the field of international education. In the Philippines, while there is a lack of policy documents from the Department of Education (DepEd) mandating its implementation, GCED is already gaining momentum on the ground. Many school heads and teachers have been involved in GCED training programs organized by international and domestic institutions. Moreover, they have not only been busy integrating GCED into their teaching practices, but they have also initiated advocacy projects that bring GCED outside the classroom. Given this context, it is interesting to examine how Filipino GCED-trained teachers take on their roles not only as global citizenship educators but also as global citizens. Utilizing phenomenological research design with data collected from artifacts analysis and interviews of GCED-trained basic education teachers and leaders, this study addressed these research questions: (1) What advocacy projects have been implemented by GCED-trained teachers in the Philippines outside the confines of their classroom?; (2) What factors motivated them?, (3) What challenges did they face in the implementation?; and (4) Employing Franch’s (2020) GCED typology, what GCED discourse is dominant among the teachers based on these projects? Results showed that teachers implemented a diverse array of activities such as Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) awareness raising, community service projects, development of GCED instructional materials, capacity building for teachers, youth empowerment programs, environmental projects, and cultural experience/intercultural exchange. They were motivated by different factors such as personal experience, issues with GCED implementation, influence of teacher training, and personal skills, interest, and passion, while they were challenged by lack of support from higher-ups, mindset of fellow educators, and lack of funding and resources. With the diversity of advocacy projects, the most dominant typology is cosmopolitan humanism. This can be attributed to the influence of teacher training programs, which played a huge role from the conceptualization to the evaluation of the projects. Given the dearth of literature on GCED teacher-led advocacy projects beyond the classroom, the given findings are valuable in understanding the role of teachers not only as global citizenship educators but also as proactive global citizens. Moreover, recommendations such as enacting a policy that mandates the teaching of GCED, adopting best practices of leading training institutions, and conducting more studies on GCED in the context of the Philippines were forwarded by the study
Examining Cuyonon Motion Events in “Frog, Where Are You?”
No full textA dominant theme in the children’s story book Frog, Where Are You? (Mayer, 1969) is the expression of motions (Slobin, 2004), whose patterns vary depending on the language. Talmy (2000) proposed that the world’s languages are generally divided into a two-category typology based on whether the core schema is expressed by the main verb (V languages) or by the satellite (S-languages). In V-languages, the frame event (path) is in the verb itself, whereas in S languages, the manner is typically conveyed by the verb and the information about the path follows it in a satellite (Rau et al., 2012). Previous research has shown that Tagalog and Cebuano belong to the class of path-salient V languages along with several other Austronesian languages (Huang & Tanangkingsing, 2005). This paper conducted a preliminary investigation of motion events in Cuyonon through the following steps taken from Rau et al.’s (2012) study on Yami: (a) recognize path and manner verbs (prototypical and non-prototypical alike) used by the Cuyonon language consultant in his elicitation of the Frog Story; and (b) determine how motion events are represented in serial verb constructions. After having analyzed the given narrative data, it can be argued that Cuyonon as good as follows Tagalog and Cebuano in being a path-salient V-language, as it also gives greater attention to path information as opposed to manner. However, categorizing it as a “pure V-language” has yet to be determined. Future studies recommend gathering more Frog narratives from other Cuyonon speakers, and to also take into consideration other elicited data containing motion events beyond the children’s book
