Improving 'Consumer Protection' With Buddhist Ethics: Necessity, Possibility, Challenge, Suntharee T. Chaisumritchoke
Improving 'Consumer Protection' With Buddhist Ethics: Necessity, Possibility, Challenge, Suntharee T. Chaisumritchoke
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This article primarily aims to draw attention to the concept of consumer protection in health care and the drug regulatory system. Consumer protection originated in the Western tradition and later it became a consumer protection model adopted by countries all over the world. However, it has been challenged when consumers have encountered the various unethical drug marketing strategies of the pharmaceutical industry. Modern advertising and aggressive drug marketing have considerably contributed to and stimulated mixed feelings of greed, fear and delusion so that consumers? minds have become weak and vulnerable. Meanwhile, the minds of physicians and the drug regulators have …
Mon Nationalism And The Invention Of Traditions: The Case Of The Mons In Thier Diasporic Communities, Juajan Wongpolganan
Mon Nationalism And The Invention Of Traditions: The Case Of The Mons In Thier Diasporic Communities, Juajan Wongpolganan
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This essay is aimed to describe and analyze the invention of Mon traditions by applying Eric Hobsbawm and Terence Ranger's concept of invented traditions. As I found in my observations in the field and in archival research, the Mons in their homeland and their diasporic communities overseas have invented a number of traditions in order to show solidarity. These include national costumes, a national flag, a national anthem, and a national day.
King Mongkut's Political And Religious Ideologies Through Architecture At Phra Nakorn Kiri, Somphong Amnuay-Ngerntra
King Mongkut's Political And Religious Ideologies Through Architecture At Phra Nakorn Kiri, Somphong Amnuay-Ngerntra
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This research investigates King Mongkut?s vision of modernity as expressed through the medium of Phra Nakhon Kiri in Phetchaburi. King Mongkut used hierarchically traditional architecture as a means of bolstering national pride and legitimising claims to the right of kingship. Simultaneously, a political position of Siam as a modern state was manifested through European-Sino-Siamese hybrid architectural styles in the mid-nineteenth century. In addition, the bell-shaped pagoda style within the site complex reflected his religious reform directed at upgrading monastic practices and purifying the canon. His reformed Buddhist sect, Thammayut, is characterised as rational, intellectual, and humanistic. Such religious reform was …

Muslim Communities During The Ayutthaya Period, Julispong Chularatana
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The Muslims in Ayutthaya were divided into distinct groups. The first, the Indo-Malay Muslims, and the second, the Sunni Muslims from the countries to the west of Siam, were the groups outside the city wall, while the third resided inside the city wall. This third group consisted mainly of Indo-Iranian Muslims of the Shiite sect, different from the first and the second groups, who were primarily of Sunni sect of the Shaf'is group. The differences in their religion, race, society, and culture caused these Muslims to separate into different communities in the city of Ayutthaya.
A Comparative Study Of Chinese Musical Activities And Thai Cultural Contexts, Jintana T. Barton
A Comparative Study Of Chinese Musical Activities And Thai Cultural Contexts, Jintana T. Barton
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This research explores the influence of Chinese music as it is reflected in cultural activities in China and Thailand. In China, music has been used since long before the time of Confucius (551-479 BC) as a learning tool, and the Chinese who migrated into Southeast Asia and ultimately Thailand brought their music with them. In Thai society, Chinese music has been used in traditional ways. Although the music remains closer to what was brought with the immigrants, it has been adopted into Thai society in ways that go far beyond the original Chinese use. This research found that some Chinese …
The Decline Of Socialist Realism In Post-1975 Vietnamese Literature, Montira Rato
The Decline Of Socialist Realism In Post-1975 Vietnamese Literature, Montira Rato
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
In Vietnam, Socialist Realism served as a tool for the party and the state to control art and literature. Its emphasis on the utilitarian function of literature and collectivism is a good explanation for why it flourished in Socialist countries, including Vietnam. However, Socialist Realism was found unsuitable for the development of Vietnamese literature in the post-1975 period. This study tries to examine how Socialist Realism was adopted and adapted in Vietnam, and why it was challenged in the post-war period.
Iinteractions Between Viewpoint Aspect And Situational Aspect: A Case Study Of Alternating Intransitive Constructions In Thai, Kachen Tansiri
Iinteractions Between Viewpoint Aspect And Situational Aspect: A Case Study Of Alternating Intransitive Constructions In Thai, Kachen Tansiri
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This paper aims at analyzing an internal temporal constituency of situations denoted by alternating intransitive constructions (AIC) in Thai in order to subclassify them, and investigating interactions between two viewpoint-aspect markers, namely kamlang and yuu, and each subtype of AICs. According to the scope of a profile on the causal chain, the AICs in Thai are arranged into two main groups, i.e., the AICs denoting a simplex causal situation and the AICs denoting a complex causal situation. In each group, they are further subclassified according to the situation aspect of the denoted situations. In analyzing the interactions between viewpoint aspect …
Nathalie Sarraute: Tropisms And The Drama Of Logos, Nipaporn Tirasait
Nathalie Sarraute: Tropisms And The Drama Of Logos, Nipaporn Tirasait
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
Nathalie Sarraute created a new style of writing, renouncing the accepted literary forms by discarding conventional ideas about plot, chronology, and characterization. Research in this area has consistently shown that, in Sarraute, language is at the heart of her drama. However, this essay emphasizes that she played with the power of words and silences to make us hear far beyond the social surface of discourse and grasp what is really going on in the minds of the interlocutors. Against the structural linguistics of her time, Sarraute concentrated on every phoneme, every syllable of a word or an expression, testing and …
Areal Typology Of Mainland Southeast Asia: What We Learn From The Wals Maps, Bernard Comrie
Areal Typology Of Mainland Southeast Asia: What We Learn From The Wals Maps, Bernard Comrie
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
Mainland Southeast Asia has long been recognized as a classic example of a linguistic area, but earlier characterizations of this language area have typically been intuitive, for instance providing seemingly impressive lists of features known to be shared by Mainland Southeast Asian languages but without considering a list of features on which these languages differ, without explicitly considering the extent to which the features in question are common or rare across the world as a whole. By using the maps in the World Atlas of Language Structures, it is possible to build up a more structured assessment of the extent …

"Because Mother Isn't At Home": Evidentiality And Metapragmatic Knowladge, Krisadawan Hongladarom
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This article reports a result of an experiment in investigating Tibetan children's comprehension and metapragmatic knowledge of evidentials. The experiment was conducted in a Tibetan school in Nepal with three groups of children: 9-year-olds, 11-year-olds, and 14-year-olds. Four questions were asked based on a story. These questions solicit answers that reflect children's understanding and awareness of evidential contrasts, namely direct versus indirect experience. Most children seem to understand that when one has eyewitness knowledge of an event, s/he needs to use the direct evidential. In contrast, if one does not see what happens, s/he needs to resort to the indirect …
Another Look At Aspect In Thai, Pranee Kullavanijaya, Walter Bisang
Another Look At Aspect In Thai, Pranee Kullavanijaya, Walter Bisang
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
The aim of the paper is twofold. The first aim is to analyse aspect in Thai in the framework of the selection-theory approach developed by Breu and Sasse (1991). The second aim is to study all possible co-occurrences of each of the three aspect markers: lέєw, kamlaŋ, yùu with the four classes of verbs and with the verbs occurring with other strategies within the five classes of states of affairs. It was found that the selectional approach chosen helped explaining the inceptive-stative state of affairs in Thai clearly. It also pointed out that the Thai aspectuality focused on the initial …
Final Frictives*-S And *-H In Proto T'In Lexicon, Theraphan L-Thongkum
Final Frictives*-S And *-H In Proto T'In Lexicon, Theraphan L-Thongkum
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
Final /-s/ does not exist in modern T ʾ in; however, *-s in Proto-T ʾ in can be reconstructed. The distinction between *-s and *-h in Proto-T ʾ in phonology is suggested by two types of final correspondences, i.e., *-s has become /-yh/ in Mal but /-t/ in Pray, and *-h has been kept as /-h/ in both Mal and Pray. This fact was pointed out by Filbeck in 1978; however, no Proto-T ʾ in forms were reconstructed by him. To show a clearer picture of the phonological history of T ʾ in, 68 Proto-T ʾ in forms were reconstructed, …
Eunuchs, Concubines, And The Islamic History Of Southeast Asia, William Gervase Clarence-Smith
Eunuchs, Concubines, And The Islamic History Of Southeast Asia, William Gervase Clarence-Smith
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
In the early 17th century, male servant eunuchs were common, notably at the Persianised Acehnese court of Iskandar Muda. By the mid-eighteenth century, the castration of male slaves mysteriously disappeared. Concubinage, however, lasted much longer. While there were sporadic attempts to stamp out abuses, for example sexual relations with pre-pubescent slave girls, and possibly, clitoridectomy, a reasoned rejection of the institution of concubinage on religious grounds failed to emerge. This paper discusses the sexual treatment of slaves across Islamic Southeast Asia, a subject which sheds important light on historical specificities pertaining to both Islam and sexuality in the region, yet …
Rizal, Sex, And Civilization, Raquel Reyes
Rizal, Sex, And Civilization, Raquel Reyes
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
This essay focuses on the work of the Filipino ilustrado, Jose Rizal, and his interest in the prevailing debate over whether the sexual behaviour of a culture reflects its level of civilisation. Spanish apologists for colonial rule had persistently argued that the Filipinos remained in many ways a backward and primitive people and delighted in alleging in support of their case that lasciviousness and promiscuity were widespread in the Philippines. These allegations caused deep offence to Rizal and his fellow propagandistas, who wanted, as a matter of patriotic honour, to repudiate such colonialist slurs. Through an examination of a selected …
Filial Piety And Chastity In Du's The Tale Of Kieu: A Challenge To Confucianism In Vietnam, Montira Rato
Filial Piety And Chastity In Du's The Tale Of Kieu: A Challenge To Confucianism In Vietnam, Montira Rato
Manusya, Journal of Humanities
he early 19th century Vietnamese masterpiece, The Tale of Kieu by Nguyen Du, is a story that famously highlights the conflict between the Confucian concepts of filial piety and female chastity, and between personal obligations and personal morality. This paper explores how issues of love and sexual relationships, as portrayed in the Tale of Kieu, influenced the thinking of Vietnamese intellectuals in the early 20th century. Drawing on parallels to Kieu???s plight, it is argued that the Vietnamese, who collaborated with the French, often made sense of their actions in terms of sexual submission and sacrifice as well as being …

At a business meeting at that conference, a steering committee was appointed with the task of strengthening ICCTE. That committee has been functioning, and it is our hope that a progress report will be published in next summer’s issue of the Journal. The Journal also launched a series of live webcasts …
Multicultural Considerations For Building Learning Communities, Cher N. Edwards, Scott Edwards
Multicultural Considerations For Building Learning Communities, Cher N. Edwards, Scott Edwards
International Christian Community of Teacher Educators Journal
Educational policies call for inclusion and attention to cultural differences in our schools. Administrators, classroom educators, counselors, and other support staff attempt to attend to students through a cooperative effort of connecting with the community beyond the school building, as well as the families represented within it. As Christians, there is a higher calling to truly embrace those often underserved in our learning communities. This paper will address multicultural issues important for United States and United Kingdom school system staff to be mindful of when focusing on students and their families.

Preparing Teachers For Their Prophetic Role To Serve With Heart, Head, And Hands, Cindy Harvel, Martine Audeoud
International Christian Community of Teacher Educators Journal
As teacher preparation programs seek to diversify their pre-service teachers’ exposure to teaching situations, Mount Vernon Nazarene University’s Education Department has discovered how to maximize its freshman’s educational technology field experiences through meaningful cross-cultural community service. A plan has been implemented since the spring of 2004 where candidates taking educational technology classes are required to give 8 hours of technology tutoring as a community service to populations in cross-cultural situations. Based on the Spring 2004 successes, the cross-cultural tutoring opportunities have been expanded, leading to renewed vision in candidates’ perspectives on education and job placements. At a freshman level, this …
Head And Heart And Hands: Necessary Elements Of Inclusive Praxis, Ken Pudlas
Head And Heart And Hands: Necessary Elements Of Inclusive Praxis, Ken Pudlas
International Christian Community of Teacher Educators Journal
When David called for the physically disabled grandson of Saul, Mephibosheth, to dine at the king’s table, he was demonstrating an extraordinary level of inclusion. This paper reports data gathered as part of a programme of inquiry into the efficacy of the Full Inclusion model of special education; discusses how educators might progress from a mere head-knowledge of what is right, to a heart conviction of what should be done; and then explores a hands-on approach of how educators might more effectively do the right thing. Additional phenomenological data are reported from practicing teachers regarding their experience with the inclusion …
