Retraining displaced workers : what can developing countries learn from OECD nations?
No full textThe governments of most industrial countries provide financial support for adult training programs intended to retrain displaced workers. The author draws lessons from the experience of six industrial countries (Australia, Britain, Canada, Japan, Sweden, and the United States) on how to design and implement such retraining programs in low-income developing nations and middle-income countries. By retraining, the author means both improving job skills and remediating deficiencies in basic education. These are the lessons he emphasizes: Training programs should be independent of the educational system, with its rigid ties to degree requirements and academic schedules; links to employers must be developed and maintained so that trainees have marketable skills on completing the program. Training programs should be designed to minimize trainees'foregone earnings; basic education should be relevant to the jobs the trainees might seek. External providers of education must be made accountable - but with care; the system of accountability should also ensure that the needs of displaced workers most likely to suffer long-term unemployment are met. Not all displaced workers require relatively expansive retraining; some may need only inexpensive job-search assistance services. A permanent, institutionalized training system is preferable to short-term intervention.Labor Standards,Tertiary Education,ICT Policy and Strategies,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Teaching and Learning
New considerations about Duane's syndrome Novas considerações sobre a síndrome de Duane
No full textThe author presents his arguments to state that the Duane's syndrome type III of the Huber's classification does not exist. He takes the chance of those arguments to show why the medial rectus muscle recession in Duane's syndrome with esotropia cripples the adduction more that it does in esotropias of other origins. He shows also why one must recess also the sound eye's medial rectus in Duane's syndrome with esotropia.O autor expõe argumentos para afirmar que não existe a síndrome de Duane tipo III da classificação de Huber. Aproveitando esses argumentos, mostra por que o retrocesso do músculo reto medial em síndrome de Duane com esotropia prejudica a adução mais do que o faz em esotropias de outras origens. Mostra, também, por que se deve retroceder também o músculo reto medial do olho não afetado em síndrome de Duane com esotropia
Displacements of gender: Research on alcohol, violence and the night-time economy
No full text'Alcohol-related violence', especially among young people participating in the night-time economy (NTE), has been the subject of intense public and policy debate in Australia. Previous sociological work has highlighted the relationship between men, masculinities and violence, but this relationship has received little attention in the research that tends to garner policy attention. In this article, we focus on the treatment of gender in Australian quantitative research on alcohol and violence in the NTE. We identify four 'gendering practices' through which such research genders alcohol and violence: de-gendering alcohol and violence through obscuring gender differences; displacing men and masculinities via a focus on environmental, geographical and temporal factors; rendering gender invisible via methodological considerations; and addressing gender in limited ways. We argue that these research practices and the policy recommendations that flow from them reproduce normative understandings of alcohol effects and lend support to gendered forms of power.The research was conducted with the support of an Australian Research Council Discovery Grant: Analysing Gender in Research and Policy on Alcohol-Related Violence among Young People: A Comparative Study of Australia, Canada and Sweden (DP18010036). Chief investigators on the project are David Moore and Helen Keane. Partner investigators are Kathryn Graham and Mats Ekendahl. Research staff working on the project are Duane Duncan and Emily Lenton. The project has been based in two institutions over time: the National Drug Research Institute, Curtin University, and the Australian Research Centre in Sex, Health and Society, La Trobe University
“Like a Motherless Child”: Racial Education at the New York African Free School and in <i>My Bondage and My Freedom</i>
No full textIn this essay, Duane argues that reading two disparate texts together—the largely unknown school records chronicling the work of antebellum black children and a text by the most prominent African American author in the canon—allows a powerful model to emerge for reading the mediated voices of children, slaves, and other marginalized people. Duane recovers and analyzes the records of the New York African Free School in the 1810s and 1820s, an archive that features the work of the first generation of black children to inherit freedom in New York City. She argues that the scripted performances of the NYAFS students offer insight into a set of overlapping cultural metaphors that structured black-white relations throughout the nineteenth century and beyond. The interaction between black students and white teachers anticipates the treatment that many early black abolitionists received from white abolitionists—of which the famous clash between Frederick Douglass and William Lloyd Garrison is the most prominent example. By untangling the assumptions that underlie these performances, Duane suggests that we can better understand and analyze other interactions scripted by the overarching and intertwined beliefs that African Americans were children, and that children's subjectivities could be shaped according to the will of their educators.</jats:p

Duane Elgin’s Concept of the Living Universe from the Perspective of Neo-Romanticization
No full textThe article is aimed at analysing Duane Elgin’s concept of the living universe from the standpoint
of neo-Romanticization. The analysis is based on an understanding of Romanticism as an epoch of
reinterpretation of the Western esoteric tradition. The author notices in Elgin’s works the presence
of ideas that were popularized in the Romantic period, thus emphasizing the motif of esoteric inspirations
in his oeuvre. By turning against the idea of a non-living universe, understood as a mechanism,
Elgin continues the esoteric tradition, the major ideas of which are organicism, holism and
evolutionism. His works (and activity) discussed in this study are treated as factors of social change
