Research Approach Exploring Integrating Employment And Family Policy: Review Of Policy Objectives For The Population Policy White Paper In Taiwan, Chih-Lung Huang
Chih-lung Huang
One of the main purposes of the Population Policy White Paper in Taiwan is to seek solutions to the baby bust trend. Through strengthening family policy, the Population Policy White Paper in Taiwan tries to satisfy the need for a balance between work and family for women. However, the need is not only concerned with the baby bust problem, but also about the institutional and structural problems on culture and welfare systems under the conventional male breadwinner model. This article will explain the reason why the issue of work and family life balance should consider gender equality. Through the dual …

Integrating Breadwinning And Childcare In The Family Policy Formation In Taiwan, Chih-Lung Huang
Chih-lung Huang
The baby bust problem in Taiwan is not only related to the question of the undertaking of breadwinning between man and woman in the household, but also the allocation of child care responsibility. The integration of breadwinning and child care through family policy formation is expected to resolve baby bust problem and gender equality at the same time in Taiwan. This article analyzes the policy idea and instruments of child care policies and its planning. We try to understand the reshape pattern of the breadwinner model and the goal of gender equality behind policy development. The research results showed that …

Designing An Information-Experience Using Creativity Science & Tools, Stephanie Belhomme
Stephanie Belhomme
An “information-experience” encapsulated by a technological/digital audio-visual tool presents data and potentially meaningful information to prompt actionable knowledge concerning: “unspoken creative process elements;” their profound impacts on both how well our “physiology of creativity” functions but also; how well foundational creative thinking and behavioral prerequisites (energy, motivation, imagination, and ownership) are leveraged.
The product: 1) introduces the user to one component of the CPS (Creative Problem Solving) Facilitation Process - Exploring the Challenge; 2) features a content specific component which prompts exploration of the many correlations between societal, organizational / community, human physiological / behavioral data, and the direct relationships …
Role Of Mothers In The Family, Church And Society, Chinedu Chibueze Ihenetu-Geoffrey
Role Of Mothers In The Family, Church And Society, Chinedu Chibueze Ihenetu-Geoffrey
Chinedu Chibueze Ihenetu-Geoffrey
Much of the confusion and misunderstanding with regard to the role of women in the church, family and in society, has to do with the failure of recognizing that the family, like any other institution in society, is influenced by changes taking place in society. The family, like individuals, does not operate in a social vacuum, but in a socio-cultural-historical environment, which changes with time. The role of mothers in today’s world has grown past the traditional and African role of motherhood exemplified by being ‘perpetual housewives’. Their roles now transcend into the society, the church and most importantly, the …

Naming A New Self: Identity Elasticity And Self-Definition In Voluntary Name Changes, Celia Emmelhainz
Celia Emmelhainz
This article considers how personal name changes are situated within their sociological context in the United States. Reviewing both popular and scholarly texts on names and name changes, I draw on recent work on identity and narrative by Oriana Bernasconi (2011) to argue that voluntary personal name changes are made in relation to a sense of narrative elasticity or identity elasticity, and act symbolically to make a shifting identity or self-narrative manifest in the social context. Drawing out these themes through an exploration of name changes for ethnic self-definition or religious purposes, I conclude with a reflection on the unstable …
