Understanding Communication and Identity Strategy of Indonesian Diaspora Women as YouTuber

<em><span>Nowadays the presence of internet provides virtual spaces for diaspora women who are living outside Indonesia. Living within different cultures are challenging and social media platform can be as self-actualization medium to representing identities and expressing their emotional bonding with homeland. There are only several research which have revealed on how Indonesia women diaspora from mixed family especially in maintaining YouTube platforms. The aim of this study is tried to portray how Indonesian diaspora women revealing their national identity within video YouTube content. This research method was descriptive qualitative. Data were collected from ten videos of two Indonesian diasporas YouTuber who have mixed family, living abroad, and have more than 1 (one) million subscribers. We tried to explore from some categories such as video's location, moment or time background, target viewer, and on how delivering the messages within videos. Research finding showed that the video’s contents indicated kind of negotiation construction for showing love and caring between homeland and recent locations, also acceptance with local identities. Elements of Indonesian are attached in their everyday life. In addition, they were still depicted as being related to domestic role and being responsible for taking care of the family.</span></em>

Parentage Analysis in Giant Grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus) Using Microsatellite and SNP Markers from Genotyping-by-Sequencing Data

Pedigree information is necessary for the maintenance of diversity for wild and captive populations. Accurate pedigree is determined by molecular marker-based parentage analysis, which may be influenced by the polymorphism and number of markers, integrity of samples, relatedness of parents, or different analysis programs. Here, we described the first development of 208 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and 11 microsatellites for giant grouper (Epinephelus lanceolatus) taking advantage of Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS), and compared the power of SNPs and microsatellites for parentage and relatedness analysis, based on a mixed family composed of 4 candidate females, 4 candidate males and 289 offspring. CERVUS, PAPA and COLONY were used for mutually verification. We found that SNPs had a better potential for relatedness estimation, exclusion of non-parentage and individual identification than microsatellites, and > 98% accuracy of parentage assignment could be achieved by 100 polymorphic SNPs (MAF cut-off < 0.4) or 10 polymorphic microsatellites (mean Ho = 0.821, mean PIC = 0.651). This study provides a reference for the development of molecular markers for parentage analysis taking advantage of next-generation sequencing, and contributes to the molecular breeding, fishery management and population conservation.

Population Genetic Structure and Breeding Pattern of Higher Group Termite Globitermes sulphureus (Haviland) (Blattodea:Termitidae)

The subterranean termite Globitermes sulphureus (Blattodea: Termitidae) can be found in tropical regions. We chose seven novel species-specific microsatellite markers to infer the breeding pattern of G. sulphureus based on its colony and population genetic structure in eight selected populations (natural-n = 4 and metropolitan-n = 4) in Kedah and Penang, Malaysia. A strong correlation with their geographical location is shown by the acquired genetic gap for all studied populations from this study. The breeding pattern of family structure and comparisons of estimated F-statistics among G. sulphureus workers suggests 60% of all colonies are mixed families, whereas the remaining are simple families. Average relatedness values within simple and mixed family colonies are similar (r = 0.121). Positive fixation index FST values (FST = 0.086) indicate all eight populations (>500 m apart) have a significantly moderate genetic differentiation and low levels of inbreeding based on the low overall inbreeding coefficient FIT value of 0.391. Furthermore, four populations; Palapes USM (PU), Tmn Astana (TA), Kg Teluk (KT), and Penang National Park (NP), deviate from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE, all p = 0.000) and five studied polymorphic loci (GS1, GS10, GS15, GS27 and GS29) are possibly under selection. The findings also reveal signs of a bottleneck effect in two populations: Tikam Batu (TB) and Penang National Park (NP), indicating genetic drift.

The Jewish Identity of the “Unexpected Generation” in the Context of the Upbringing Model in a Mixed Family

The Jewish Identity of the “Unexpected Generation” in the Context of the Upbringing Model in a Mixed FamilyThe goal of the article is to introduce one of the youngest Jewish generations in Poland, known as the “unexpected generation”, based on my own research and the findings of other researchers. At the same time, I consider the essence of upbringing in a mixed family and its consequences for the socio-cultural identity of this generation. I look at ways of constructing patterns of Jewish family life and possible forms and content of intergenerational family transmission. I also highlight challenges and potential threats faced by Jewish families living in Poland today. Consequently, I try to outline possible further research directions related to issues of cultural content transmission in a family and the transmission of Jewish religious and linguistic heritage. Tożsamość żydowska „nieoczekiwanego pokolenia” w kontekście modelu wychowania w rodzinie mieszanej W swoim artykule chciałabym przybliżyć jedno z najmłodszych pokoleń żydowskich w Polsce, zwane „nieoczekiwaną generacją”, na podstawie badań własnych oraz ustaleń innych badaczy. Jednocześnie uwzględniam istotę wychowania w rodzinie mieszanej i to, jakie niesie za sobą konsekwencje dla tożsamości społeczno-kulturowej tegoż pokolenia. Przyjrzę się sposobom konstruowania wzorów żydowskiego życia rodzinnego oraz możliwym formom i treściom rodzinnej transmisji międzypokoleniowej. Wskażę także na wyzwania i potencjalne zagrożenia, przed którymi stają dziś żydowskie rodziny mieszkające w Polsce. W efekcie postaram się wytyczyć możliwe dalsze kierunki badawcze podejmujące kwestie transmisji treści kulturowych w rodzinie, przekazu żydowskiego dziedzictwa religijnego i językowego.

Wartime Ideology and the Integration of Korean-Japanese Mixed Families, 1930s

This chapter concentrates on colonial kinship and narratives of adoption that were intended to highlight the mixed family as a harmonious unit. It looks at Yi Kwangsu's novels Kokoro aifurete koso (When hearts truly meet) and KŬdŬl Ŭi sarang (Their love). It also shows how the wartime imperialization policy and assimilation played out in domestic everyday life through a story of Korean–Japanese family adoption. It further explains the colonial kinship discussion by analyzing the films that centers on the development of mixed families Rinjin'ai no reikyaku (Beautiful guest of neighborly love) and Ai to chikai (Love and the vow). The chapter recounts the “cultural rule” of the 1920s that brought a proliferation of print culture in Korea and ushered in a censorship-oriented state of war as the Japanese Empire reached North China in the following decade.

“Lucky Little Guy”: Unpacking Mixed-Family Privilege and Marginality through Critical Narrative

This paper examines the role of narrative as an avenue for critically unpacking family history. In this case, the narrative grows out of the preparation and performance of a one-person play, “A Conversation with Alana: One Boy’s Multicultural Rite of Passage.” Through continuously rethinking family history during the rehearsal and performance process, the intersection of marginality and privilege within a single life trajectory is analyzed.
