Policies on migrant workers are characterised by competing frameworks of governance that do not necessarily protect migrants. Despite their vulnerability, however, migrant workers also possess agential capacities. Guided by the concept of “fugitive witnessing”, I discuss excerpts from the book “Bantay-Salakay: Anthology of Short Stories by Domestic Workers in Singapore, Hongkong and Taiwan” (Mga Bantay-Salakay: Antolohiya ng Maiikling Kuwento ng mga Indonesian Domestic Worker sa Singapore, Hongkong, at Taiwan), a collection of stories originally in Bahasa Indonesia and translated into Filipino. Specifically, I problematise how stories written by Indonesian domestic helpers reveal and negotiate varied aspects of migration. The paper concludes that stories of subaltern groups within the diaspora may serve as complex and discursive means to assess, interrogate and reform the contemporary phenomenon of labour mobility.
有关移徙工人的政策以相互竞争的治理框架为特征,这些框架不一定保护移徙者。然而,尽管移徙工人很脆弱,但他们也具有代理能力。在“逃亡的见证”概念的指导下,我讨论了《班泰-萨拉卡:新加坡、香港和台湾家庭佣工短篇小说集》(Mga bantayi - salakay: Antolohiya ng Maiikling Kuwento ng Mga印度尼西亚家庭佣工sa Singapore, Hongkong, at Taiwan)一书的节选,这本小说集最初用印内文写成,后来被翻译成菲律宾语。具体来说,我对印尼家庭佣工所写的故事如何揭示和谈判移民的各个方面提出了质疑。本文的结论是,散居海外的次等群体的故事可以作为评估、询问和改革当代劳动力流动现象的复杂和话语手段。

The main purpose of this article is to trace the destiny of the homoerotic narrative genres of BL (Boy Love) and GL (Girl Love) in the South Korean context and, more precisely, to determine the impact of this family of genres on South Korean gendered reality. The paper presents an overview and a small selection of ethnographic voices related to the genres while trying to understand the specific local conditions of the production and consumption that have ensured BL and GL have had a lasting influence in South Korea among pop-cultural audiences and female creators.

This study is focused on a small village in Tuscany and explores how citizens evaluate the actions and communication strategies applied by the local government during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study adopted a combination of qualitative and quantitative methods: semi-structured interviews with local administrators, and a survey with a representative sample of the local population. The findings show a limitedly articulated yet meaningful relationship between the central administration and the local one, a positive evaluation by citizens of the local government’s management of the emergency and, generally, good social cohesion, albeit not fully supported by the engagement of civic cultures that were heavily restricted by the socially restrictive measures imposed during the pandemic.

This paper examines the concept of banal nationalism as often unconscious, routine processes that nations reproduce on a daily basis. Banal nationalism is recognisable in the use of national symbols but also in language and culture. The purpose of this paper is to determine whether Slovenian folk-pop music is one of these processes, and in which ways and strategies we can detect its reproductive role in banal nationalism that on a daily basis reminds its listeners of their national identities. Methodologically, the article is based on the content and a textual analysis of compositions by three of the most often listened to folk-pop ensembles, demonstrating that the national narrative can be identified in a smaller proportion of all analysed compositions in three sections: the idea of nation as an imaginary community or home(land), national (auto)stereotypes, and patriotic feelings.

V prispevku pokažemo, zakaj je analitično zmotno reducirati religijo na verovanje. Sprva na podlagi pregleda relevantnih virov pokažemo na obstoj družbenega konsenza, ki pravi, da je religija stvar verovanja. Nadalje pokažemo, da si ta isti konsenz deli eden izmed prevladujočih raziskovalnih programov sociologije religije – teorija racionalne izbire. V drugem delu prispevka pokažemo, da bi s konsenzom morali prelomiti na podlagi dveh primerov: utelešene religije in karizmatičnega krščanstva. Raziskave utelešene religije učijo, da delovanja človeške kognicije ni mogoče ločiti od telesa. Hkrati primer karizmatičnega krščanstva predstavlja globalno popularno religijo, za katero je značilno, da je izrazito telesna. Na podlagi primerov besedilo sklenemo s pozivom k epistemološkemu prelomu v luči aktualnih in napovedanih sprememb religijske demografije.

Članek povzema glavne ugotovitve sistematičnega pregleda literature o seksualnem delu v Sloveniji, objavljene med letoma 1990 in 2020. Glavni namen je bil zagotoviti sistematičen pregled ugotovitev predhodnih študij o poklicnih tveganjih v seksualnem delu ter strategijah in politikah za njihovo zmanjševanje. Rezultati kažejo, da se seksualne_i delavke_ci srečujejo s specifičnimi poklicnimi tveganji, povezanimi s stigmo, varnostjo, politikami, zdravjem, poslom, dostopom do storitev in zasebnim življenjem. Za njihovo zmanjševanje uporabljajo številne strategije, zlasti je pomembno postavljanje mej strankam. Študije za izboljšanje delovnih razmer priporočajo spremembo regulacije, informiranje različnih ciljnih skupin ter vzpostavitev dostopnih in nestigmatizirajočih podpornih in zagovorniških programov za seksualne delavke_ce. Naš pregled poleg tega izpostavlja potrebo po omogočanju in spodbujanju profesionalizacije seksualnega dela.
