Handbook of Essential Keywords for Understanding Rural China
Based on sociolinguistic analysis methods, theoretical analysis or empirical research was conducted on 39 keywords related to rural reform, peasant behaviour and peasant politics in China since the founding of the People's Republic of China. The research content covers the period from 1949 to the first decade of the twenty-first century. The research content includes changes in the rural policies of the People's Republic of China, changes in rural systems, organisations and behaviour in the era of collectivisation, and peasants' reactions and behaviour in the face of national policies.This book focuses on four aspects: the meaning of words themselves in Chinese, their meaning in contemporary Chinese political life, how peasants understand and practice the elements and connotations contained in words, and how words themselves change, transform or even disappear.This book will appeal to scholars of peasant politics, Chinese affairs, and contemporary Chinese history; undergraduate and postgraduate students of history, sociology, and political science; and the general reader interested in Chinese rural areas and Chinese politics. Chinese political societies in English-speaking countries, Chinese or East Asian research centres, universities or libraries may also be interested in this book.
Journey to Adulthood
Young people in East Asia are increasingly experiencing a prolonged transition to adulthood. They are spending longer in school, entering the labour market later, and getting married later still. This protracted young adulthood interacts with forces of both tradition and modernization, as social and economic changes generate profound effects on the transition from school to work, on family formation, on personal relationships, and on subjective well-being. Journey to Adulthood explores the special characteristics of young adulthood in East Asia. It uses Taiwan as illustrative example, with comparative findings from its East Asian neighbours Japan, Korea and Hong Kong. It describes the particular growth context of a millennial generation, and the challenges they face as they attempt to balance family formation, personal development and entry into a market economy. Edited by Chin-Chun Yi and Ming-Chang Tsai, this collection helps us to understand the structural configurations East Asian young adults collectively represent. Taking a cross-cultural and comparative perspective, it enables meaningful policy suggestions on family dynamics, educational strategy, and health and well-being across the globe. Dr Chin-Chun Yi and Dr Ming-Chang Tsai both work within the Institute of Sociology, Research Center for Humanities and Social Sciences, Academia Sinica, Taiwan

The book covers different types of psychological treatments along with their importance, robust scientific evidence and cost-effectiveness. While referring to established texts in the field, the current work provides coverage on different modes of counselling and psychotherapy which are essential for the students. The concepts of classical psychoanalysis, individual psychotherapy, object relations, and brief dynamic therapy have been presented from the psychodynamic school of thought. Treatments rooted in classical and operant conditioning, classical concepts of CBT and REBT, as well as DBT and ACT provide understanding of important concepts from the Cognitive and Behavioral schools. Humanistic and existential approaches of client centered therapy and logotherapy orients the reader to the view of innate positivity of human beings and how therapists might help clients achieve their true potential. Recent developments of positive psychology interventions are touched upon. How Indian concept of Karma Yoga can be useful in clinical practice has been deliberated upon. A chapter is also dedicated on how clinicians might work with families. All the chapters aim to help the reader understand not only the theoretical concepts but also the process which guides practice. Case examples are rooted in the Indian cultural context and therefore help students get further clarity. The aim is to orient the students to the world of logically guided, evidence based, ethical, clinical practice in current times. While students might find it useful for their learning of clinical practice, experienced clinicians might also benefit from this brief work as an important reference point in teaching, practice, and research.
