최근 들어 미국의 대도시 지역은 새로운 이민집단이 계속적으로 증가하여 기존의 소수 집단인 흑인과 더불면 소수집단이 몇몇 대규모 도시에서는 백인보다 수적으로 우월하게 나타나고 있다. 이러한 변화는 일반적으로 이들 다수를 형성하게 된 소수 인종. 민족 집단들이 미국 사회에서 백인에 비하여 낮은 사회. 경제적인 지위를 공유하기에 협력자의 관계를 통하여 상승을 꾀할 것이라 기대된다. 그러나 이러한 기대와는 달리 소수 집단간의 관계는 기존에 존재하지 않던 집단간의 경계를 뚜렷이 하며 융화보다는 대립적인 갈등 관계를 보이고 있다. 본 논문은 기존의 민족집단간의 관계에 대한 연구가 백인과 흑인, 즉 다수 대 소수집단의 관계에만 지나치게 집중되어 그다지 연구되지 않은 주제인 흑인과 남미집단간의 갈등을 남미인의 민족성 등장에 초점을 맞추어 살펴보았다. 우선 민족집단의 구분을 신체적 특성을 강조하는 선천적이고 고정적인 구분과, 효과적으로 이익을 추구하기 위하여 결집하는 상황적인 구분으로 구별지어 살펴보고, 남미인의 민족성 등장을 지존에 존재하지 않던 새로운 집단정체성이 이익을 추구하기 위하여 등장한 것으로 보았다. 남미집단의 민족성 등장의 배경으로 민족집단의 경계를 규정하는 정부의 역할-1970년도 인구조사에 새로이 등장한 남미출신 범주와 인종차별수정계획에의 포함-과 내부적인 결속력을 강화하려는 조직의 등장-1960년대 후반이후의 이민을 통한 남미계의 급속한 성장과 더분 조직들의 등장-을 서로 영향을 미치며 정체성을 강화하는 것으로 고려하고, 이러한 성향이 최근의 침체된 경제상황과 복지혜택의 축소 상황아래에서 더욱 심화된다고 살펴보았다. 마지막으로 이러한 남미집단의 정체성 등장에 대하여 흑인집단은 자신들이 역사적으로 경험하여온 차별에 대한 보상으로 획득한 인종차별수정계획의 보호대상으로 인정되어 무임승차하는 것으로 간주하여 반발적인 반응을 보이고 있음에서 소수민족집단간 갈등의 근본적인 원인을 찾아보았다. 흑인과 남미인간의 갈등은 새로운 소수집단간의 현실로 심화되어, 기존에는 그다지 중요하지 않았던 집단간의 경계를 뚜렷이 하는 새로운 현상으로 일컬어진다. 증가일로에 있는 이들 간의 긴장과 갈등은 남미인들이 민족성을 고양하며 기존의 소수집단인 흑인과 경쟁하며 새로운 집단간의 전선을 형성하는 양상으로 이해할 수 있다. 이들 소수집단간 갈등은 도시지역별 각 집단의 인구규모와 전체인구에서 차지하는 비중으로 나타날 최소요구치 그리고 지역경제상황에 따라 그 빈도와 강도가 다양하게 나타날 것이다.

This paper investigates the determinants of students' success in Vietnam through conducting online interviews and surveys with 2,500 Vietnamese students at eight famous universities in Vietnam. By applying both SPSS 22 and STATA software, the study is to evaluate the impact of four driver factors, which affect GPA, language efficacy, and personal achievement. These factors are psychological perspective, home environmental, student demographic, and school environmental. The research results emphasize a positive effect of psychological and home-environmental determinants, but the negative effect of school environmental factors on the students' success. Besides, the relationship between demographics and student success was tested and indicated that male students have a better language learning ability, but a low level of academic achievement than female students. The results also point out the impact of religious affiliation and ethnicity on personal achievement. Non-religious students are better achievers than those having a religion or those in minority ethnicity. Moreover, accumulated schooling years are negatively associated with students' success. The more working experience students accrued, the higher possibility they are successful. Finally, the finding provides an insight into students' success that might be useful to government authorities and other universities in designing policies for enhancing the quality of education.

본 연구에서는 공동체에서의 문화 다양성에 대한 억압을 탐구했다. 먼저 그동안 수행한 연구와 최근의 변화를 토대로 중국 정부와 소수민족 사이에 존재하는 억압을 고찰했다. 보이는 억압에서는 한어 교육의 확대, 소수민족 언어의 제재를 비롯하여 소수민족의 정체성이 배제된 고등교육의 확대를 언급했다. 보이지 않는 억압에서는 도시화, 현대화를 앞세운 도시개발, 중앙정부의 교육을 받은 소수민족 출신 간부의 활용 등을 거론했다. 이어서 유럽에 맞선 라틴아메리카의 억압과 저항에 주목했다. 왜냐하면 라틴아메리카는 문화 다양성의 억압을 중국 소수민족 보다 먼저 경험하고, 이를 이론으로 성숙시켰기 때문이다. 그러므로 라틴아메리카 지식인들의 고민과 경험은 중국 소수민족의 미래와 자신을 변호할 이론으로 가공되는 데 참고할 점이 많다. 물론 중국 소수민족 공동체의 문제에는 특수성이 있다. 그러나 라틴아메리카에서의 경험과 자아 비판적 연구는 중국 소수민족 공동체의 특수성을 확장시켜 생각할 단초이다. 특히 유럽에 의해 문화적으로 잠식되어 스스로 창조할 수 없는 지경에 이른 라틴 아메리카의 상황과 점차 닮아가기 때문이다. 궁극적으로 본 연구를 통해 우리 공동체는 어떠한지 그리고 바람직한 공동체는 어떠해야 하는지 되돌아보고 싶었다. 중국 소수민족의 실태와 라틴아메리카의 억압과 저항을 통해 우리의 민낯을 되돌아보고, 바람직한 공동체가 추구할 현실적 방안을 찾고자 했다. 라틴아메리카 학자들의 주장처럼 인식의 전환은 필요하다. 더하여 다양성과 자유에 대한 성찰, 상호 존중의 마음, 중국의 상황에 기초한 화이부동의 자세도 중요하다. 결국 공동체에서의 문화 다양성과 억압의 문제는 중국 소수민족 공동체와 라틴아메리카의 선주민뿐만 아니라 미국의 아시아인, 한국에서의 외국인 문제로 확장되어, 다양한 구성원으로 만들어진 공동체 모두의 문제가 된다.

Also enable the use of Arabic in France with regard to trends of Maghreb countries and other Arab countries, is being led by noted. In the second part, we put on the importance about the situation of Arabic in the France's educational institution. And we have analysed the reasons why Arabic became the most important reason for learning the target language: - in order to faciliate the children of immigrants living in Maghreb able to speak French - Due to differences in culture and language experience to relieve the psychological insecurity above sea - By using the Arabic language at home among family members, strengthen solidarity and resolve heterogeneity In the third part, we have recognized that the French education system was looked at in the Journal of Arabic teaching elementary, middle and high school courses, separated by a learning Arabic as the target language. Finally, we have tried to find a way to revitalize Arabic in France in connection with Sabhan Rabina Al-Baldhawe concrete example of the paper were based on a survey. France and the Arab countries' relationship has been long enough to prove the historic aspects and economic cooperation have maintained a relationship even tighter. Arabic, many of the French people also need education and children to learn Arabic in the French educational institution that has shown a positive stance. French students learning Arabic as a future career in choosing the width of the wider benefits it helps to have. Learning Arabic in the course need to be addressed is also true that a lot of points. But the Arabic and various aspects of internal organization is considered a minority in the popular Arabic language training in France has become more competitive in research and analysis to be active stance is required externally, such as the increase of trade agreements and economic systems side at the level of cultural exchange and international co-operation system, strengthening its position as the Arabic language in France.

The purpose of this study was to create letters for of nonliterary Pulang tribe in Thailand those who immigrant from China. illiterate Pulang tribe hand down their tradition by primary oral culture therefore their tradition can't initiate and keep, moreover, it may disappear throughout history. So it is expected to crusade against unlettered people. The scheme of research adopted in this study was a minority race who habitate at the northern Machan, Chiangrai in Thailand. It is not only analysis of language but also the eradication of literacy and the research based on linguistic, ethnolinguistic, and primary oral culture. Five Pulang people who live in that area were chosen for creating letters. By using the I. P. A., after each word was listen to their pronunciation one by one it was described and repeated this process several times; the material words and humanbody were pointed in front of them while other words were described by gesture. For final description, number of people were in the lineup for listening the sound of words and phrases to sentences. In the first stage, it was an analysis segmental of Pulang: vocoid, contoid and diphthong were described with each sample syllables and words. The suprasegmental were studied with intonation and juncture of the words in the second stage. Two words were compared and different meanings within their intonation and juncture were shown. At the end of this part, each case of phonemic or morphophonemics representation described the juncture in the words. In the third stage, minimal pairs were analyzed with vowels and consonants and described in free variation based on words. In the last stage, syllable structure in open syllable and closed syllable was studied and then each syllable of its structure was analyzed with samples. There were thirty-two phonemes in apong Pulang as follows: seven vocoids; a, i, e, o, u, ${\ae}$, and $\wedge$, one diphthong; wu, 24 contoids; b, c, d, f, g, h, j, k, k, 1, m, n, ${\eta}, {\;}p^{h}$, p, p, r, s, s, sh, t, t, w, and y. Their pronunciations of p, s, d, $p^{h}$, j, and t are frequently used in speech and are unique in triphthong. Moreover, most of the words used initial and final consonant cluster.

Arif Dirlik in Postmodernity's Histories sees the issue of re-ethnicization in the case of John Huang, China's alleged attempt at lobbying the Clinton administration. In this view, Americans with Chinese surnames were suspected by the US Justice Department to be possible spies working for Beijing. Reethnicization here seems to serve the mainstream society in reducing an ethnic minority to a group of aliens operating for their countries of origin. However, re-ethnicization is not necessarily a one-way oppressive operation; it is often made use of by the ethnic minorities in their efforts to adapt to their country of arrival. Haroon and Karim, the protagonists of Hanif Kureishi's The Buddha of Suburbia, are cases in point. They are portrayed as winning social recognition and securing a place of their own within the hostile host society through a strategic use of re-ethnicization, that is, masquerading as 'genuine Orientals.' This study brings to light possible fallacies or misguided expectations concerning the political position of first- and second-generation immigrants. One of the fallacies is found in the racist metropolis, which regards the ethnic minorities as a sort of resident aliens, no matter what immigrant generation the latter belongs to. Another fallacy is found in the kind of postcolonial criticism that automatically regards an anti-racist critique advanced by people like Kureishi as something motivated by a confrontational tactic, that is, an attempt at subverting the colonial power relations. The conclusion of this study is that Kureishi's agenda, as presented in The Buddha of Suburbia, is neither the preservation of an ethnic identity nor the subversion of colonial power relations but survival in the metropolis. On this account Kureish's agenda can be called a micro-politics.

Even though Paule Marshall and Ishmael Reed have differences of gender, generation, and literary techniques, they share common points in dealing with cultural conflicts and racial discrimination in the United States as Afro-American Writers. As black minority writers, Marshall and Reed write out of a perspective of forced immigrant/fragmentary native consciousness. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the protagonist's reaction to racial prejudice, different cultures and their attempts to reconcile and to coexist with other races and their culture in these writers' representative works. Marshall's uniqueness as a contemporary black female artist stems from her ability to write from the three levels, that is, African American and Caribbean black. So, Marshall's Brown Girl, Brownstones represents an attempt to identify, analyze, and resolve the conflict between cultural loss/displacement and cultural domination/hegemony. Reed's Japanes by Spring offers a blistering attack upon the various cultural and racial factions of the academy and the bankrupt value systems in America. Reed's depiction of Jack London College's existing racial problems-later compounded by the cultural dilemmas that accompany the Japanese occupation of the institution-reveals his interest in highlighting the ways in which any monoculturalist ideology ultimately results in racist and culturally exclusive policies. Marshall's and Reed's novels provide opportunities for reader to explore various manifestations of intercultual and interethnic dynamics. They present the possibility of reconciliation and coexistence between different race and ethnic cultures through asserting a cultural hybridity and multiculturalism.

Abnormally located liver tissue has been described in the vicinity of the liver proper, near anatomical structures such as the gallbladder, the umbilical fossa, the adrenal gland, the pancreas, and the spleen. Supradiaphragmatic ectopic liver is a rare finding, but has been reported to have been found in the intrathoracic cavity and in the pericardium. In the majority of supradiaphragmatic ectopic liver cases, there was an accompanying transdiaphragmatic pedicle of the main liver body into the abdominal cavity. In a minority of supradiaphramatic ectopic liver cases, the liver was completely separated from the abdominal cavity without a connection between the thorax and the abdomen, with accompanying diaphragmatic anomalies. We describe one case of intrathoracic ectopic liver in a patient with a previous history of lower chest wall trauma, and a brief review of the English-language medical literature on this topic.

This paper explored the academic socialization of a group of Mongolian college students, learning Korean as their L3 (Third Language), by focusing on their uses of an electronic communication channel. From a perspective of the continua of bi-literacy, this case study investigated how Mongolian students who had limited exposure to a Korean learning community overcame academic challenges through the use of a written communication channel as a tool in the socialization process. Data were collected mainly through three methods: written products, interviews, and questionnaires. The results from this study were as follows. Interactional opportunities for these minority students were seriously constrained during the classroom practices in a Korean-speaking classroom. They also described the lack of communicative competence in Korean and the limited roles played by L2 (English) communication as key barriers to classroom practices. However, students' ways of engaging in electronic interactions differed widely in that they were able to broaden interactional circles by communicating their expertise and difficulties with their Korean peers through the electronic channel. More importantly, the communication pattern of "L2-L2/L3-L3" (on a L2-L3 continuum) emerging from data demonstrated how these students used a written channel as a socialization tool to mediate their learning process in a new community of learning. This study argues that a written communication channel should be taken as an essential part of teaching practices especially for foreign students who cannot speak Korean fluently in multi-cultural classes.
