Luk Thung - James Leonard Mitchell - Bog - Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP - Plusbog.dk

Luk Thung - James Leonard Mitchell - Bog - Silkworm Books / Trasvin Publications LP - Plusbog.dk

Since the 1960s, the hybrid popular music called luk thung has embodied the aspirations, frustrations, and sorrows of Thailand's working class. Global scholarship, however, has been slow in examining this seminal genre. In this pioneering book, ethnomusicologist James Mitchell explores the many facets of luk thung through ethnographic research with singers, songwriters, fans, and other professionals. The groundbreaking final chapter refutes the widespread opinion that luk thung is an apolitical genre by examining its role in recent political turmoil and tracing currents of protest and sociopolitical commentary back to the music's origins. The book includes links to many songs online so that readers can hear for themselves the music that came to express the triumphs and hardships of everyday working Thais.

Luk Van Soom: Into View - Luk Van Soom - Bog - Stichting Kunstboek BVBA - Plusbog.dk

Luk Van Soom: Into View - Luk Van Soom - Bog - Stichting Kunstboek BVBA - Plusbog.dk

With an impressive career of over 40 years that has resulted in the installation of large-scale art projects in numerous public spaces, artist/sculptor Luk Van Soom needs no further introduction in Belgium and the Netherlands. This beautifully designed art book is a first retrospective on his life and career. In a series of discussions and interviews with the artist, author Johan Pas sheds some light on the influences, philosophy, thinking and themes that have been vital for Van Soom''s artistic development: the relation between life and passion, travel and art, etc. Together, these texts present a kaleidoscopic image of Luk Van Soom''s life and work that is just as multifaceted and compelling as his art. At the age of seventeen Van Soom took his first tentative steps as an artist. Now 40 years later, he has an impressive curriculum including many exhibitions, commissions and projects both in his home country and abroad. Moreover, he created more than 50 monumental works for the public space in Belgium and the Netherlands, among which some very well know sights, such as Walhalla (1993, Antwerp), The Man from Atlantis (2003, Brussels), The Wharfinger (2005, Zwolle) and Walking to Magdalena (2012, Ostend).Text in English and Dutch.

The Life of Paper - Sharon Luk - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Life of Paper - Sharon Luk - Bog - University of California Press - Plusbog.dk

The Life of Paper offers a wholly original and inspiring analysis of how people facing systematic social dismantling have engaged in letter correspondence to remake themselves, from bodily integrity to subjectivity to collective and spiritual being. Exploring the evolution of racism and confinement in California history, this ambitious investigation disrupts common understandings of the early detention of Chinese migrants (1880s-1920s), the internment of Japanese Americans (1930s-1940s), and the mass incarceration of African Americans (1960s-present) in its meditation on modern development and imprisonment as a way of life. Situating letters within global capitalist movements, racial logics, and overlapping modes of social control, Luk demonstrates how correspondence among the incarcerated becomes a poetic act of reinvention and a means for living.

Building Regions - Luk Van Langenhove - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Building Regions - Luk Van Langenhove - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Regions. How they emerge and how they are dramatically changing the appearance of the present ''world of states'' and its related forms of governance from local to global levels is analysed in this monograph. But what are regions? Regions can be small or huge. They can be part of a single state, be composed out of different states or stretched out across borders. They can be important recognized economic, social or cultural entities or they can be largely ignored by the people who live on a region''s territory. They can be well-defined with clear cut boundaries as is the case in so-called ''constitutional regions'' or they can be fuzzy as for instance in cross-border regions. In sum, they are not a natural kind and defining regions is not a simple task. Luk Van Langenhove advances the concept of region building as an alternative to the construction of regions with three issues of region building being explored: - Why are regions built in a world of states? - How do region building processes take place? - How are regions transforming the present world order? Crossing disciplinary boundaries, this book is an exercise in theorizing regions and brings together under one conceptual framework, different processes and concepts such as regional integration, devolution, federalism, and separatism and refines the social constructionist view on regions

Go with Your Talent - Luk Dewulf - Bog - Lannoo Publishers - Plusbog.dk

The drastic decisions you make, to do the things that you are good at, is the best way to self-realisation and authenticity. It also forms the gateway to contributing to society. By developing both your skills and talent, you automatically become more precious and beneficial to your surrounding environment. Doing the things that you are good at is almost like a life insurance, it guarantees that as you get older you are more likely to enjoy your work and generally, your life. Within the pages of Go with Your Talent Luk Dewulf investigates several different theories, including: how a person''s background could be the key to his ''manual''; how to focus on talent, and how to deal with your weaknesses or those things that do not hold an interest for you. He describes how a certain job and a continuous use of your skills, can lead a person in two different directions: success or burn-out. This book contains practical tools that a person can utilise to their benefit and is based on insights from positive psychology.Contents: Acknowledgments and thanks; Foreword; Introduction; Sustainability and the use of your talent; Knowing what you are good at: talent in action; Go with your talent!; The ''manual'' hypothesis; When it is difficult to see talent in yourself - and in others; You can lead a horse to water, but you can''t make it drink: going with your talent at school and work; Epilogue: the beauty of ''ordinary'' talent.

Go With Your Talent - Luk Dewulf - Bog - Lannoo Publishers - Plusbog.dk

We all have talents, but we don''t always know what they are.

Luk op for den 3. alder - Else Borch - Bog - Muusmann Forlag - Plusbog.dk

Luk op for den 3. alder - Else Borch - Bog - Muusmann Forlag - Plusbog.dk

Opfatter du den 3. alder som en gave? Livsfasen, hvor vi ikke længere behøver at arbejde, giver stor frihed og overvældende mange muligheder. Denne bog giver seniorer inspiration til at se nye muligheder og finde sig godt til rette med den store forandring, som arbejdslivets ophør er. Det er et privilegium, at vi i dag kan tale om den 3. alder. Tænk blot på sangen om Jens Vejmand, som tabte ham'ren brat – han måtte arbejde for føden, indtil han døde. I Danmark har efterlønnere eller pensionister mulighed for at nyde en periode i livet uden at være tvunget til at arbejde. Om den 3. alder opleves positivt afhænger i høj grad af den enkelte seniors forberedelse og indstilling. Det gælder om at udnytte mulighederne, før man eventuelt kommer i den 4. alder, hvor man er afhængig af andres hjælp. Mange seniorer på vej til at forlade arbejdsmarkedet stiller sig spørgsmålene: Hvordan vil det gå mig, når jeg ikke skal arbejde? Hvad skal jeg foretage mig i min 3. alder? Nogle frygter at forlade arbejdsmarkedet, andre glæder sig og har store forventninger. Seniorer er lige så forskellige som alle andre aldersgrupper. Bogen giver derfor ikke nogen standardsvar, men en mangfoldighed af eksempler og ideer, så læseren kan vælge sin egen vej. Bogen er en introduktion til emnet den 3. alder med sin uformelle blanding af fakta, erfaringer og synspunkter. Der er interviews med udvalgte seniorer, der inspirerer med deres personlige valg og engagement, samt referencer til litteratur, undersøgelser m.v. om den 3. alder, hvor læseren kan finde mere information. Om forfatteren Else Borch er startet som selvstændig i sin 3. alder, hvor hun tilbyder foredrag, workshops og coaching af seniorer. Efter at have lagt en lang it-konsulent-karriere bag sig, har hun taget coach-uddannelser og interesserer sig nu for emnet livskvalitet med fokus på den 3. alder. Hun er desuden engageret i frivilligt socialt arbejde for forskellige grupper: ensomme voksne, ældre, sårbare unge kvinder.

Health Insurance Reforms in Asia - Sabrina Luk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Health Insurance Reforms in Asia - Sabrina Luk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book empirically examines health care financing reforms and popular responses in three major cities in East Asia: Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. It adopts a new revised version of the theory of historical institutionalism to compare and explain the divergent reform paths in these three places over the past three decades. It also examines forces that propel institutional change. The book provides three detailed case studies on the development of health care financing reforms and the politics of implementing them. It shows that health care systems in Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong were the products of Western presence in the nineteenth century. It illustrates how greater attention is paid to the roles played by ideas, actors, and environmental triggers without abandoning the core assumptions that political institutions and policy feedback remain central to impact health care financing reforms. It shows that health care financing reform is shaped by a complex interplay of forces over time. It also provides the most updated material about health care financing reforms in Shanghai, Singapore, and Hong Kong. The central argument of this book is that health care financing reform is both an evolving process responding to changing circumstances and a political process revealing an intricate interplay of power relationships and diverse interests. It shows that institutional changes in health care financing system can be incremental but transformative in nature. It argues that social policies will continue to develop and welfare states will continue to adapt and evolve in order to cope with new risks and needs. This book sheds new lights on understanding the politics of health care financing reform and sources and modes of institutional change.

Financing Healthcare in China - Sabrina Ching Yuen Luk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Financing Healthcare in China - Sabrina Ching Yuen Luk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

China’s current social medical insurance system has nominally covered more than 95 per cent of 1.4 billion population in China and is moving towards the ambitious goal of universal health insurance coverage. Challenges posed by a rapidly ageing population, an inherently discriminatory design of the health insurance system, the disorder of drug distribution system and an immature legal system constrain the Chinese government from realizing its goal of universal health insurance coverage in the long run. This book uses a refined version of historical institutionalism to critically examine China''s pathway to universal health insurance coverage since the mid-1980s. It pays crucial attention to the processes of transforming China''s healthcare financing system into the basic social medical insurance system alongside rapid socio-economic changes. Financing Healthcare in China will interest researchers and government and think-tank officials interested in the state of healthcare reforms in China. Healthcare specialists outside of East Asia may also be interested in its general study of healthcare in developing countries. Scholars and students interested in the healthcare field will also find this useful.

Ageing, Long-term Care Insurance and Healthcare Finance in Asia - Sabrina Ching Yuen Luk - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book uses a revised version of Kingdon’s multiple-streams framework to examine health financing reforms in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and the Republic of Korea (ROK) as well as long-term care insurance (LTCI) reforms in Japan and Singapore. It shows that the explanatory power of the multiple-streams framework can be strengthened through enriching the concepts of policy entrepreneurs, ideas, and windows of opportunity in the original framework as well as bringing the theoretical lens of historical institutionalism into the framework.
