Chapter Three reveals the tendency for Xinjiang Class graduates to seek opportunities abroad or in inner China instead of returning to Xinjiang. Considering the pressures China’s Ministry of Education and Xinjiang’s provincial-level government place on these Uyghurs to return to Xinjiang after their formal education, this chapter interprets these students’ decisions to not return as a tacit expression of ethno-national identity, which takes the form of resistance to political culture.

AbstractCulture sector, which was transferred into the Ministry of Culture and Tourism since2001, was back to the Ministry of Education and Culture in October 2011. The changes oforganizational structure in ministerial level should be followed by changes of organizationalstructure in officials in provincial level. But in reality, the majority of provincial governmentsretain the culture sector together with tourism sector. This case provokes a question why thechange of organizational structure in the ministerial level is not followed by most of the officialsin provincial level. The method of this study is literature study of some articles and essays frombooks and internets, which contain history of culture sector in ministerial level, role of culturefor tourism, role of culture for education, as well as examples of official that manages culturesector in three provinces (West Kalimantan, West Sumatra, and Yogyakarta Special Region). Theresults shows that many officials merge culture sector together with tourism sector because themeaning of culture sector is considered to have a stronger synergy with tourism than education.The provincial government considers that culture sector needs to be empowered for the benefitof tourism sector. Conversely, tourism development will strengthen people’s culture in theirprovinces. Culture-based tourism development will also increase local income for the province AbstrakBidang kebudayaan yang sejak tahun 2001 bergabung dalam Kementerian Kebudayaandan Pariwisata, mulai Oktober 2011 beralih kembali ke Kementerian Pendidikan danKebudayaan. Perubahan struktur organisasi di tingkat kementerian tersebut semestinya diikutidengan perubahan struktur organisasi kedinasan di tingkat pemerintahan provinsi. Namundalam kenyataannya sebagian besar dinas di tingkat provinsi tetap mempertahankan bidangkebudayaan disatukan dengan bidang pariwisata. Hal ini menimbulkan pertanyaan, mengapaperubahan struktur organisasi di tingkat kementerian tersebut tidak diikuti oleh sebagian besardinas di tingkat provinsi? Metode yang digunakan dalam kajian ini adalah dengan melakukanstudi pustaka terhadap tulisan-tulisan dan laman-laman, yang memuat tentang sejarah bidangkebudayaan di tingkat kementerian, peran kebudayaan terhadap pariwista, peran kebudayaanterhadap pendidikan, serta contoh-contoh dinas yang menangani bidang kebudayaan di tigaprovinsi (Kalimantan Barat, Sumatera Barat, dan D.I. Yogyakarta). Hasil kajian menunjukkanbahwa hal tersebut disebabkan pemaknaan bidang kebudayaan yang dianggap lebih bersinergidengan pariwisata daripada pendidikan. Pemerintah provinsi memandang bidang kebudayaandapat diberdayakan untuk kepentingan bidang pariwisata. Sebaliknya, pengembangan pariwisataakan memperkokoh kebudayaan masyarakat di provinsi tersebut. Perkembangan pariwisatayang berbasis kebudayaan juga akan meningkatkan Pendapatan Asli Daerah (PAD) bagi provinsitersebut.

It is apparent from various labour force surveys that during the past 20 years Pakistan’s employed labour force has become more “educated”. For instance, according to the Labour Force Survey 1982-83, 28 percent of the employed labour force had attained formal education.12 In comparison, the literate employed labour force in 1999- 2000 is estimated at 46 percent, while the formally educated is 43 percent. However, the pattern of growth in educated labour force is not uniform in all four provinces of the country. A closer look at disaggregated provincial level data reflects the disparity in employed labour force in the four provinces: Punjab, Sind, NWFP, and Baluchistan.

This chapter shows how anti-polygamy legislation emerged from a particular imagining of the meaning of America. The Edmunds and Edmunds-Tucker Acts of 1882 and 1887, respectively, mobilized a particular vision of the nation to drive into submission Mormonism's challenge to American political culture. Anti-Mormonism had therefore accomplished its cultural work by constituting Mormons as an un-American threat to the nation and its legal work by taking aim at the citizenship rights of Mormons. Ultimately, the controversy over polygamy helped formulate the multiple meanings of citizenship and national identity as the Mormon question became a location at which the gendered, marital, and religious limits of the body politic were tried.

Due to historical reasons, the process of acquiring national identity by the peasants began relatively late. This process, for various reasons, was based on three models of education: formal, informal and non-formal. Schools emerging in the Polish territories were usually associated with the activities of the partitioner, moreover, it often met with distrust of a village quite closed in this respect. The People’s Movement complemented this formal education with performative activities, such as celebrating national holidays, which would give illiterate peasants the opportunity to participate in the acquisition of national identity. Another important part of this process was spontaneous non-formal education, i.e., peasant activity expressed in the acquisition of reading skills, which became the basis for building a national identity. In my text I discuss the process of acquiring national identity by peasants on the example of three models of education: formal, informal and non-formal.

From a cultural and historical-sociological perspective, the Danish nationstate of today represents a rare situation of virtual identity between state, nation, and society, which is a more recent phenomenon than normally assumed in Denmark and abroad. Though one of the oldest European monarchies, whose flag came ‘tumbling down from heaven in 1219’—ironically enough an event that happened in present-day Estonia—Denmark's present national identity is of recent vintage. Until 1814 the word, Denmark, denominated a typical European, plurinational or multinational, absolutist state, second only to such powers as France, Great Britain, Austria, Russia, and perhaps Prussia. The state had succeeded in reforming itself in a revolution from above in the late eighteenth century and ended as one of the few really “enlightened absolutisms” of the day (Horstbøll and østergård 1990; østergård 1990). It consisted of four main parts and several subsidiaries in the North Atlantic Ocean, plus some colonies in Western Africa, India, and the West Indies. The main parts were the kingdoms of Denmark proper and Norway, plus the duchies of Schleswig and Holstein. How this particular state came about need not bother us here.

According to a British researcher of nation phenomenon A.D. Smith, national identity is a main form of collective identity, a dominant criteria of culture and identity. That’s way the aim of the article is a clarification of two notions: national identity and historical memory.National identity has relations with national self-consciousness. National self-consciousness consists of knowledge and presentations of national community, its historical past and present, spiritual and material culture, language and national character.There are three conceptions of roots of Ukrainian national identity. The first is a chauvinistic conception. According to this conception Ukrainian nation never existed. It’s only a dialect group of Russian nation. The second is unity of three nations – Russian, Ukrainian, Belorussian and the senior brother is Russian nation and Ukrainian and Belorussian are juniors. The third conception is the autochthonous-autonomic conception (the author is M. Grushevs’ky).The autochthonic-autonomic conception has two poles of origins of Ukrainian nation. The first pole – Tripoli culture, Ukrainian nation was born in 7–2 millennium B.C. The second pole – 10–11 centuries A.C. The Illarion’s ‘Word about Law and Grace’, ‘Kyiv-Pechersky Patericum’ etc. are the basics of Ukrainian nation.In contemporary Europe we can observe reformation of the problem of national identity and rising of an ethnical factor and a historical memory. A historical memory is a complex of installations, stereotypes, habits, traditions, constant aspects of national character, national senses, their mark by social consciousness.National senses are ground of installations and stereotypes. They are emotional-psychological background of actions of a national character. National senses are a part of a political self-consciousness, a personal political culture.

The Holy doors are a completely complete separate element, but they also carry their semantic load as a part of a larger unified whole, such as the church iconostasis. The article focuses on questions related to the characteristic and symbolism of the plastic decoration of the Holy doors, the characteristic stylistic features and features of the era, the masters and individual schools. In the course of the exhibition, brief attention is paid and their use and importance of the worship services is presented.

Abstract Indonesian education system, beside the fact that it has a single system with a single educational law, accommodates two different official curricula administered by two different ministries, i.e. The Ministry of Education and The Ministry of Religious Affairs. This kind of dual system was officially initiated by the New Order Government in 1970s.  Using the social constructionism as a perspective, this study tries to re-construct the debates on educational policies during the New Order Era. While the Era has passed, the policy of having dual system remains relevant.The study is conducted using a qualitative-historical method, meaning that data are gathered from various resources using the qualitative approach combined with the historical perspective. Data are collected from various written documents as well as interviews with some resource persons. General conclusion of the paper is that the dual curriculum system has existed before the New Order government took the power. The different is that the New Order Government made the dual system official, while the previous system did not recognize religious school as parts of formal education system. Abstrak Meskipun Indonesia memiliki satu sistem pendidikan nasional dan satu Undang-undang pendidikan yang berlaku, namun ada dua kementerian yang mengelola pendidikan, yaitu Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kementerian Agama. Inilah yang dimaksud dengan dualisme sistem pendidikan Indonesia. Awalnya, pendidikan Islam berada di luar system, sehingga dualism itu tidak begitu Nampak. Namun sejak tahun 1970an dualisme ini mulai mewujud seiring dengan diakuinya pendidikan Islam sebagai bagian dari sistem pendidikan nasional oleh Pemerintah Orde Baru. Tulisan ini mencoba merekonstruksi dualisme sistem pendidikan di Era Orde Baru dengan menggunakan metode kualitatif-hsitoris. Tulisan ini membuktikan bahwa sebenarnya dualisme pendidikan telah ada sebelum masa Orde Baru. Namun, di masa Orde Baru-lah dualisme itu muncul secara aksplisit, ketika pendidikan Islam diakui sebagai institusi resmi yang berbeda dengan pendidikan sekuler. How to Cite:  Zuhdi, M. (2015).
