AbstrakPenelitian sandur, kesenian rakyat berupa drama tari di Desa Ledok Kulon, Kecamatan Bojonegoro, Kabupaten Bojonegoro sudah banyak, tetapi yang membicarakan tentang kekerasan budaya dan tembang sandur dalam kerangka arkeologi dan genealogi pengetahuan belum ditemukan. Hal itu karena kekerasan budaya menimpa seni tersebut karena imbas stigmatisasi sepihak pascatahun 1965—1966 yang menganggap sebagai kesenian rakyat yang berafiliasi ke PKI, dan pada masa puritanisme Islam menguat pada tahun 1990-an yang menganggap sandur tidak sesuai dengan nilai-nilai Islam, padahal isi tembang-tembang sandur kontradiksi dengan stigma tersebut. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini menguak aspek kekerasan budaya dengan menelusuri tembang sandur dari perspektif genealogi dan arkeologi pengetahuan dalam bingkai cultural studies. Teori yang digunakan adalah triangulasi teori, yaitu folklor, arkeo-genealogi pengetahuan, dan kesejarahan. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa (1) tembang-tembang sandur memiliki metrum puitika Jawa yang mengarah pada nyanyian anak-anak, dengan media bahasa Jawa lokal, dan menyimpan jejak kearifan lokal, etika, dan spiritual, (2) nilai-nilai Islam-Jawa menjadi ruh tembang-tembang sandur. Di dalamnya terdapat sinkretisme nilai-nilai Jawa dan Islam, (3) stigmatisasi sepihak pada Sandur Bojonegoro, baik oleh kalangan anti-komunis maupun puritanisme Islam, hanya melihat pada konteks kesejarahan Indonesia pada Orde Lama ketika politik menjadi panglima dan hanya melihat penampang permukaan semata tanpa mendalami unsur-unsur pembentuknya, ideologi, ajaran luhur, dan tradisi yang melahirkan seni sandur.    Kata kunci:Sandur Bojonegoro, kekerasan budaya, arkeologi, genealogi pengetahuan  AbstractThere are many researches on sandur, folk art in the form of dance dramas in Ledok Kulon Village, Bojonegoro District, Bojonegoro Regency, but those that talk about cultural violence and tembang sandurin the archaeological framework and genealogy of knowledge have not been found. This is because cultural violence befell the art because of the impact of unilateral stigmatization after 1965-1966 which considered it a folk art affiliated to the PKI, and during the period of strong Islamic puritanism in the 1990s, which considered sandur not in accordance with Islamic values, even though the contents tembang sandurcontradict this stigma. Therefore, this study uncovers aspects of cultural violence by tracing tembang sandurfrom the perspective of genealogy and knowledge archeology within the framework of cultural studies. The theory used is triangulation of folklore theory, archeology-genealogy of knowledge, and history. As a result, (1) the sandursongs have a Javanese poetic metre that leads to children's singing, with local Javanese language media, and keeps traces of local wisdom, ethics, and spirituality, (2) Javanese-Islamic values become the spirit of the tembang sandur. In it there is a syncretism of Javanese and Islamic values, (3) the unilateral stigmatization of SandurBojonegoro, both by anti-communists and Islamic puritans, only looks at the historical context of Indonesia in the Orde Lamawhen politics was the commander and only sees the surface without explore its constituent elements, ideology, noble teachings, and traditions that gave birth to the art of sandur. Keywords:SandurBojonegoro, cultural violence, archeology, genealogy of knowledge

Through my own narrative about my relationship with my fictive father in Zanzibar and the impact of this relationship on my research, in this autoethnographic essay I explore three themes: fictiveness, fatherhood, and the field. These themes tie together different aspects of the term “patriography,” linking them to ethnography and its subgenre autoethnography. Drawing on the term “patriography” as the science or study of fathers, I use the concept of “the field” to examine the impact of narratives about fathers on not only the field as a site of ethnographic research but also on the field of African cultural studies.

It goes on to consider the nature and origins of western materialist philosophy and contrasts the belief structure of Islam with the West. The paper also ex.amines the historical context in which western values became adopted in Muslim societies and discusses the policy issues that confront Islamic accounting standard setters.

African American scholarship on Revelation makes fruitful use of cultural studies as a discipline. This approach draws on the field of sociology, social history, literature, anthropology, linguistics, and other cultural markers. As a method for biblical interpretation it values both the ancient context and the current cultural contexts of readers, and is open to multiple interpretations. This essay considers the various ways Revelation has functioned in African American congregations, the impact of Liberation theology, womanist and postcolonial perspectives, and the notion that Revelation is subversive or resistance literature. Attention is given to similarities and differences between African American scholars concerning Revelation’s political perspective, its approach to identity construction, and the way in which the book might engage current readers.

AbstractThis article discusses the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Black Lives Matter movement on the arts and cultural sector in the United States, placing the 2020 crises in the context of the United States’s historically decentralized approach to supporting the arts and culture. After providing an overview of the United States’s private, locally focused history of arts funding, we use this historical lens to analyze the combined effects of the pandemic and Black Lives Matter movement on a single metropolitan area – Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We trace a timeline of key events in the national and local pandemic response and the reaction of the arts community to the Black Lives Matter movement, arguing that the nature of these intersecting responses, and their fallout for the arts and cultural sector, stem directly from weaknesses in the United States’s historical approach to administering the arts. We suggest that, in the context of widespread organizational vulnerability caused by the pandemic, the United States’s decentralized approach to funding culture also undermines cultural organizations’ abilities to respond to issues of public relevance and demonstrate their civic value, threatening these organizations’ legitimacy.

This work draws on a combination of three theories, dependency (economics theory), the inner plantation as a socio-psychological construct, and plantation pedagogy (education theory) to develop its own educational theory called edutocracy, as a partial explanation of the failure of the West Indian education system in Barbados. It employs document analysis as its primary method of data collection and analysis and culminates in the construction of a model of edutocracy. Edutocracy reveals how the current West Indian debate surrounding educational reform of the Secondary School Entrance Exam in Barbados and neighboring islands will, like most previous reforms, net little meaningful change if legislators and educators continue to negate the impact of the socio-historical context on education in this region, specifically the deleterious colonial ideologies which continue to shape education for the Afro-West Indian/Barbadian with the interests of the Euro-American metropole as paramount.

AbstractInternational investment law, particularly the global backlash against investment treaties, has evolved recently. This article aims to clarify how international investment law evolved over history, from the early Arab traders in the 7th century to the Ottoman Empire, to understand its hidden aims. It investigates the practice of signing investment treaties, which appear first during the Fatimid Caliphate2 and Mamluk Sultanate3 periods. It then explains when control over foreign investment started to diminish during the Ottoman Empire period.4 Further, it explains the links between the USA Friendship, Commerce and Navigation treaties (FCNs), and current investment treaties, explaining the impact of colonization and imperialism on drafting treaty provisions. Within this historical context, this article illustrates the need to understand the roots of international investment law in order to urge Arab countries to terminate or renegotiate current bilateral investment treaties (BITs) as a number of developing and developed countries have done.

Abstract Cross-cultural exchanges between India and China during the first millennium are often understood through a Buddhist lens; by investigating the impact of Indian Buddhist sources, be they literary, doctrinal, or artistic, to receiving Chinese communities. In these cultural transactions, instigated by traveling pilgrim-monks and enacted by imperial power players in China, India emerges as a remote, idealized, and perhaps “hollow” center. Imagined or real, the importance of images of India in medieval Chinese Buddhist landscape has been established beyond doubt. What seems to be missing in this unidirectional looking is the impact of these cultural communications in India. What were the Indian responses to Chinese Buddhists' demands and their physical presence? How was China imagined and translated in medieval India? This essay proposes to locate the activities of Chinese monks in India and the iconographies of China-inspired Indian Buddhist images within the larger historical context of shifting cultural and political geography of the medieval Buddhist world. By exploring different types of evidence from borderlands, vis-à-vis the monolithic concepts of China and India, the essay also complicates the China–India studies' comparative model.

I look at the impact of Zen Buddhism on western painters during the 1950s and 1960s, focusing on the monochrome in particular, in order to create a historical context for the consideration of transcultural dialogue in relation to contemporary painting. I argue that a consideration of Zen can offer a ‘middle way’ between conceptions of the monochrome (and art in general) often hobbled by models of interpretation that function within a binary opposition between ‘literalist/sensory’ on the one hand, and ‘intellectual/non-sensory’ readings on the other.

The recognition that ensuring the welfare of children is not possible without addressing the welfare of their female caregivers is notably missing from the child welfare literature. This article seeks to correct this omission by analyzing the welfare of children in the context of societal structures for caregiving. The author places the gender analysis of child welfare in historical context, discusses current themes of gender bias, and analyzes the impact of child welfare policy and practice on several categories of women. Policy implications and practice guidelines for improving the well-being of children are discussed.
