Abstract:
Today, who we are (by birth) and where we are (by choice) is not as relevant as it once was. More persons than ever before are pursuing lives that link the local and the global. They are becoming increasingly transcultural —physically or electronically connected with diverse peoples, and involved in decision-making that is influenced by, and in turn influences, the affairs of a global society. Transcultural persons may be sustained through transnational corporations, grassroots organizations, professional societies, and advocacy groups. But they are also identified at the level of simple, cross-cultural friendships made with residents of local communities.

Abstract:
‘Build Memories’ is a collage series that explores the layered historic and geographic landscape of Istanbul and Thessaloniki. The work focuses on the shared Byzantine and Ottoman past of the two cities, which is interlinked with the multicultural lives and transcultural memories of their inhabitants. The collaging of images of popular culture sourced from tourist catalogues of Greece and Turkey becomes in the work a strategy for the transformation of collective memories into a composite landscape. The collages literally build memory as a transcultural space deposited in the urban fabric.

Abstract:
Despite the stylish blend of multimedia and live performance in Robert Lepage's The Blue Dragon, touring in 2010 and 2011, critics are surprised by the reappearance of the archetypal love story in the space of contemporary intermedial performance. This article argues that the performance, set in contemporary Shanghai, explores the lived experience of transience and mobility through a narrative in which individual lives are implicated in a transnational, transcultural and transgenerational romance. Drawing on Zygmunt Bauman's work on liquid modernity and liquid love, we argue that the performance grapples with the experience of being unbound and disconnected in a liquid world.

Abstract:
The Dominican American community in New York is perhaps one of the best examples of how processes of transculturation are affecting traditional definitions of ethnic identification. Given the intense economic, social and cultural transnational exchanges between the island and the USA from the 1960s, Dominicanyorks have been challenging the illusion of homogeneity in the definition of Americanness for decades, creating transnational social networks that transcend traditional national and ethnographic boundaries. The theatrical works of Josefina Báez, a Dominican American performer living in New York, and Sherezada (Chiqui) Vicioso, a Dominican poet and playwright who lived and worked in the US metropolis for decades before moving back to the Dominican Republic, lyrically explore issues of diaspora, identity and migration and the impact these phenomena might have in the lives of migrant Dominican women. Presenting diasporic experiences from two differing but interconnected locales – New York and the Dominican Republic – these plays offer two complementary views on the ways in which ethnicity, race, social class, age and geopolitical location interact in the formation of transcultural identities, thus contributing to develop a hemispheric approach to the study of identity formation in the Americas.

Abstract:
This study aims to determine the influence of siri'na pacce culture on women's self-esteem with HIV/AIDS and the factors that influence the level of self-esteem of women with HIV/AIDS in the city of Makassar. This research method is mixed-method research using a transcultural nursing approach. The study results found that all respondents still adhere to the siri'na pacce culture in their families. Based on the questionnaire data analysis, most of the respondents had moderate levels of self-esteem in their families. In conclusion, the factors that influence this are the siri'na pacce culture which is still adhered to by the Bugis Makassar community, the level of education, and the moral support obtained from the family so that women living with HIV can live everyday daily lives even though they only reveal their HIV status to their families.

Abstract:
Portugal’s introduction of the Inquisition to India in 1560 placed the lives of Jews, New Christians, and selected others labelled ‘heretics’, in peril. Two such victims were Garcia da Orta, a Portuguese New Christian with a thriving medical practice in Goa, and Gabriel Dellon, a French merchant and physician. In scholarship, Garcia da Orta and Gabriel Dellon’s texts are often examined separately within the contexts of Portuguese and French literature respectively and in terms of medicine and religion in the early modern period. Despite the similarities of their training and experiences, da Orta and Dellon have not previously been studied jointly, as is attempted in this article, which expands upon da Orta and Dellon’s roles in Portuguese India’s international commerce, especially the trade in spices, and the collaborations between Indian and European physicians. Thus, the connection between religion and food is not limited to food’s religious and religio-cultural roles. Food in terms of spices has been at the foundations of power for ethno-religious groups in India, and when agents became detached from the spice trade, their downfalls were imminent, as seen in the histories of Garcia da Orta and Gabriel Dellon.

Abstract:

Transcultural migration is a growing phenomenon, yet research on the lived experience of individuals who willfully leave the security and comfort of their home nation and socio-cultural support to migrate alone as adults to a foreign nation where they do not have citizenship, do not look like the locals, and do not share the local mother tongue had not been previously researched. Marcia’s (2002) work on identity exploration and May’s existential psychological works (e.g., 1953), particularly his notion of “the stages in consciousness of self” (p. 100), served as major theoretical foundations of this research. Giorgi’s (2009a) descriptive phenomenological psychological method was used, as it aligns with the qualitative and existential nature of this topic. I interviewed three transcultural migrants and analyzed the data sets with imaginative variations to yield an essential psychological structure that describes the phenomenon. Fourteen constituents were identified: the presence of a call to adventure, an urge to defy the sense of confinement or frustration, an appetite to develop one’s potential for action in the world, indefinite and flexible migration plans, an imagined or desired horizon as the destination, commitment depending on the passion for and pursuit of growth and challenges, identity reflections on being different, a sense of extra effort or work, constant revival of earlier psycho-social crises, questioning traditional cultural boundaries, integrating cultural experiences into cultural identity and orientation, rebellion against cultural judgment-based interactions, cultural flexibility through experiential understanding, and heightened awareness of global, local, and identity politics. These findings support the existing literature emphasizing migrants’ openness to experience and interest in developing personal potential (Madison, 2009), their sense of extra effort (Moreau et al., 2009), and a pluralistic sense of political and socio-cultural identity (e.g., Ortega, 2016). In addition, the present findings challenge preconceived notions of culture, suggesting that concepts of cultural orientation, rather than racial/ethnic identity, and cultural humility in place of cultural competency have greater functional applications to the transcultural phenomenon. Some clinical, educational, socio-cultural, and political implications are presented. Future studies are encouraged to examine various transcultural possibilities.

Full text
Abstract:
Background: An estimated 125 million women live with Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) worldwide. Despite it being internationally recognized as a human rights violation. FGM is still practiced in approximately 29 countries, most of them in Africa and the Middle East. FGM has no health benefits, whereas there are short and long terms negative consequences that can cause physical and psychological problems. Aim: To describe the experiences of women who live with FGM and their subsequent interactions with healthcare providers in countries where FGM is not a tradition. Method: A literature study based on ten studies with a qualitative research design. Results: Five main themes were found; Knowledge of FGM, Language Barriers, The Gender of Healthcare Provider, Interactions with Healthcare Provider and On Display. Conclusion: Patients had difficulties due to the language barriers. There was a preference for female healthcare providers. Patients were affected by interactions with healthcare providers as well as lack of knowledge. Patients also had their genitals put on display for others. Clinical significance: With increasing migration, it is important that healthcare providers do not judge, but instead treat and care for these women with respect and empathy.
Bakgrund: Runt 125 miljoner kvinnor i världen idag är könsstympade, även fast det är internationellt erkänt som ett brott mot de mänskliga rättigheterna. Trots detta praktiseras könstympning fortfarande i cirka 29 länder, mestadels i Afrika och i Mellanöstern. Det finns inga hälsovinster för kvinnor som är könsstympade, däremot medför det kort- och långsiktiga negativa konsekvenser som kan leda till fysiska och psykiska problem. Syfte: Att beskriva könsstympade kvinnors erfarenheter av vårdpersonal i länder där det inte finns någon tradition av könsstympning. Metod: En litteraturstudie baserad på tio studier med kvalitativ ansats. Resultat: Fem huvudteman framkom och beskrevs; Kunskap om könstympning, Språksvårigheter, genus av personal, samspelet med vårdgivare och att den könsstympade kvinnan kände sig uttittad av vårdpersonalen. Slutsats: Patienterna hade svårt att kommunicera med sjukvårdspersonalen. Patienterna föredrog kvinnlig sjukvårdspersonal. Interaktionen med sjukvårdspersonalen påverkade patientens relation till vården. Patienterna kände sig uttittade av sjukvårdpersonalen. Patienterna upplevde att vårdpersonalen hade kunskapsbrister om FGM. Klinisk betydelse: Med ökad migration är det nödvändigt att vårdpersonalen ger en respektfull vård och visar empati för de könstympade kvinnorna.

Abstract:
Dagens mångkulturella samhälle avspeglas inom vården där vårdpersonal dagligen möter patienter från olika kulturer. Kommunikationssvårigheter relaterade till språkbrister kan uppkomma i mötet med patienter som inte förstår och talar svenska. I omvårdnadsarbetet ställs detta på sin spets, i synnerhet när det gäller vård vid livets slutskede. Denna studie syftade till att kartlägga och tolka vårdpersonalens upplevelser av möjligheter och svårigheter i omvårdnaden av denna patientgrupp. I studien har en kvalitativ metod med en hermeneutisk forskningsansats använts. Totalt åtta semistrukturerade djupintervjuer genomfördes med undersköterskor och sjuksköterskor som arbetade på en hospiceavdelning i södra Sverige. Studien resulterade i tio deltolkningar som sedan bildade tre nya deltolkningar på en högre nivå. Slutligen gjordes en huvudtolkning: att en individanpassad vård kan ses som en möjlighet för att överbygga svårigheter och problem som uppkommer i mötet med patientgruppen. Möjligheterna och svårigheterna för att åstadkomma en individanpassad vård återfanns i yttre faktorer, hos patienten och hos personalen. Culture Care teorin användes för att skapa en djupare förståelse för delar av studiens resultat. Vidare multidisciplinär forskning och utbildning krävs för att vården ska kunna leva upp till hälso- och sjukvårdslagens krav om vård på lika villkor.
Today’s multicultural society is reflected in healthcare as professionals encounter patients from different cultures on a daily basis. Communication problems related to language deficiencies consequently occur in interactions with these patients. This can lead to inadequate care delivery at the end stage of life. The aim of this study was to identify and interpret health care professionals’ experiences of opportunities and challenges in delivery of nursing care to this patient group. A qualitative method was used with a hermeneutic approach. Eight semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals working at a hospice in Southern Sweden. The results identified ten sub-interpretations which were distilled into three over-arching interpretations which lead to the following singular conceptual interpretation: Individualized care is viewed as an opportunity to overcome problems that arise when meeting this group of patients. The possibilities and challenges to achieve individualized care came from a combination of external, patient and staff factors. Cultural Care Theory was applied to parts of the study results to achieve greater understanding of the subject. Furthermore, multi-disciplinary research and education is necessary to ensure that health care providers can live up to The Act of Health Care requirements for care delivery on equal terms.

Nesse estudo objetivou-se realizar a tradução para o português e a adaptação cultural do instrumento Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire (CLDQ) para uso no Brasil. O instrumento foi traduzido da versão original (Inglês) para a língua portuguesa pelos autores e, posteriormente, revisado e avaliado quanto ao grau de dificuldade das traduções e equivalência por tradutores bilíngües. O instrumento foi, então, aplicado em 20 pacientes com hepatopatia crônica selecionados aleatoriamente. Não houve dificuldade na compreensão do instrumento, todas as questões foram consideradas aplicáveis pelos pacientes, e a equivalência cultural do CLDQ foi demonstrada sem que mudanças na tradução original precisassem ser feitas. A tradução e a adaptação cultural do CLDQ para o português, no Brasil, foram realizadas, tendo sido cumprida esta importante etapa para sua validação e utilização em nosso meio.
The aim of this study was to carry out the translation from English into Portuguese and the transcultural adaptation of the Chronic Liver Disease Questionnaire to use in Brazil. The instrument was translated from the original version (English) into Portuguese language by the authors and then, it was revised. The degree of difficulty of the translations and equivalence for bilingual translators were evaluated. The instrument was, then, applied in 20 patients with chronic liver disease randomly selected. It was easy to the patients understand the instrument, all the questions had been considered applicable by the patients, and the cultural equivalence of the CLDQ was demonstrated without changes in the original translation. The translation and the transcultural adaptation of CLDQ into Portuguese, in Brazil, had been carried out, having been fulfilled to this important stage for its validation and use in our way.

Abstract:
Nesta Dissertação exponho reflexões de mais de trinta anos de experimentação de processos de ensino e aprendizagem de ritmos populares. Utilizo o recurso da autoetnografia (Benetti 2017), e o conceito de \"participante analítico\". Ao estudar o samba como exemplo, proponho abordagens da rítmica dos seus instrumentos de percussão em sala de aula - ambiente novo para a transmissão dos conhecimentos ancestrais das expressões culturais populares. E transponho práticas dos contextos populares para o ambiente acadêmico, tais como a oralidade, a corporalidade e o entendimento das funções exercidas pelos padrões na estrutura rítmica do samba. O foco inicial do trabalho é a ludicidade (Huizinga 1938) como geradora da motivação para a abordagem de conteúdos musicais e corporais. Como estratégia de aprendizagem do samba, o texto propõe o uso de processos para a memorização dos padrões rítmicos (Kubik 1979b) e apresenta proposta de representação vocal dos instrumentos de percussão do samba. Os sons da voz e, depois, dos instrumentos de percussão, deverão gerar movimento no corpo do aprendiz, acessando assim a música-dança de modo transdisciplinar, importante para a apreensão integradora dos ritmos populares, onde o som é \"escrito\" nos corpos (Lühning 2001). Outra reflexão apresentada é de análise da estrutura de funções dos padrões rítmicos (\"levadas\") e suas influências em percepções verticais (pulsos corporais), e horizontais (fraseados). Emprego conceitos de Nketia (1975), Kubik (1979b), Pinto (2001), Sandroni (2001), Mukuna (2006), Fonseca (2017) e Leite (2017). O trabalho propõe a inclusão de visão transcultural dos ritmos populares (Ikeda 2016) em sua abordagem educacional, abrindo-se o foco para a amplitude da ocorrência do samba nos contextos. De ambientes matriciais da cultura brasileira, representados pelas religiões de matriz africana, e das versões rurais e praieiras do samba de roda, até as vertentes urbanas do samba, cujos praticantes referenciais \"beberam\" das fontes tradicionais. Para atestar as semelhanças e especificidades, inclui-se grades rítmicas desses três contextos culturais do ritmo.
By using an autoetnography resource (Benetti 2017), and the concept of \"analytic participant\", I organize reflections after more than thirty years of experimentation of the learning processes of popular rhythms. With samba music as focus, this work approaches rhythmic details from its percussion instruments in the classroom - a new environment for the transmission - transposing some fundamentals of popular culture. First comes the ludic impulse generating motivation (Huizinga 1938) and I propose mnemonic processes to vocalize sounds (Kubik 1979b) and generate movements in the body of apprentices. There is a wide meaning for a popular rhythm as music and dance, where sounds \"write\" even before accessing percussion instruments (Lühning 2001). Then, another fundamental is understanding the structure of the rhythm with patterns (\"levadas\') and their influence in vertical perceptions (body pulses), and horizontal perceptions (phrasing). I bring concepts from Nketia (1975), Kubik (1979b), Pinto (2001), Sandroni (2001), Mukuna (2006), Fonseca (2017) and Leite (2017). Finally, I work with apprentices a transcultural view for popular rhythms (Ikeda 2016), from three different samba contexts. Starting from Afro-Brazilian religious example and rural and beach Afro-Brazilian branches in samba-de-roda, up to the urban branch of samba, with participants who drank from that traditional fountain. Rhythmic grids of the three cultural contexts of the rhythm are included, to attest to the similarities and differences.

Gil, Guerrero Eva María. "Out of the Mainstream: Spanish Migration to Colonial Australia." Thesis, 2020. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/41282/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis analyses the group of Spaniards who migrated to the Australian colonies in the nineteenth century. Southern-European migration to colonial Australia has been broadly researched in the case of Greeks and Italians mainly because their modest numbers in the 1800s dramatically increased in the following century. Spaniards, however, did not migrate to the antipodes as often as Greeks and Italians in the twentieth century. Still, in the previous century, their numbers were quite similar. This fact is noteworthy because nineteenth-century Spain still maintained some colonies in the Caribbean and in the Pacific, where migration was encouraged by authorities, and had historical and economic ties with its Latin American ex-colonies, which were preferred by Spanish migrants. Therefore, what were the motivations of the group of Spaniards who headed to the Australian colonies? The purpose of this research is then two-pronged: to investigate these motivations together with their migration experiences and to fill the gap in current research. The main focus of this research is to provide a wide-ranging account of the Spaniards who migrated to Australia in the colonial period, identifying their motivations and type of migration and analysing their occupations, social behaviour and degree of assimilation. Therefore, family reconstruction and prosopography methodologies were used to construct a database of the key life events of this population. This data was analysed using both a quantitative approach and a qualitative approach which has allowed the identification of patterns and connections. As a result of this research, some significant conclusions can be drawn: the first Spanish settlers to colonial Australia were convicts who established themselves in the colonies after serving their terms. Although migration to the Australian colonies was discouraged by the Spanish authorities, the strength of some pull factors, such as the gold rushes, attracted the first Spaniards to Australia. The lack of official incentives was overcome by some private initiatives, including the establishment of a Catholic religious mission in Western Australia and the chain migration in Victoria. In these two private initiatives, the combination of charismatic and reliable pioneers who offered financial support, and job opportunities were pivotal to their success. This investigation also examines and analyses valuable information on assimilation and transregionalism. In conclusion, this research on Spanish migration to colonial Australia will shed some light on Spanish migration, settlement and transcultural lives in colonial Australia.

Vaccinations are an important step in preventing childhood illnesses and disease outbreaks in the community. Complete immunizations before school assure eligibility for enrollment and protect children against severe illness. The fact that foreign-born children of Latino immigrants face health disparities in receiving vaccinations is well documented. However, there is little information in the literature about the actual experience of immigrants facing the complexities of the health system, and through their eyes, which factors ultimately affect vaccination rates of immigrant Latino children. The purpose of this study is to give voice to Latino immigrant families who have recently immigrated to the United States, in terms of the issues they encountered when engaging the health care system for vaccinations.

Abstract:
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
Nurse-physician collaboration has received much attention over the past decade in the USA. The release of three reports from the Institute of Medicine implicated poor communication and collaboration among nurses and physicians as a major contributing factor to the incidence of sentinel events and medical errors. Despite the growing awareness of the imperative related to collaboration between nurses and physicians to ensure patient safety, the problem of poor nurse-physician collaboration remains endemic throughout the country. Indian nurses, along with many other internationally educated nurses, comprise 12-15.2% of the nursing workforce in the USA. Little is known about how Indian nurses culture potentially influences their ability to effectively collaborate with physicians to ensure patient safety. The purpose of this study is to understand Indian nurses’ attitudes and perceptions about nurse-physician collaboration. Hermeneutic interpretive phenomenology as influenced by the work of Martin Heidegger guided this study through the use of interviews via Skype. The overall experience of the Indian nurses was of one experiencing a dramatic positive change in nurse-physician collaboration in the USA as compared to India. Four themes emerged describing this phenomenon: Respect/feeling heard, Being Trusted, Assurance of Accountability, and Finding Freedom. Indian nurses practicing in the USA find a freedom that empowers them to collaborate with physicians for patient safety. They, as all nurses may, benefit from continuing educational opportunities that demonstrate ways to collaborate more fully.

Queer Representations in Chinese-language Film and the Cultural Landscape provides a cultural history of queer representations in Chinese-language film and media, negotiated by locally produced knowledge, local cultural agency, and lived histories. Incorporating a wide range of materials in both English and Chinese, this interdisciplinary project investigates the processes through which Chinese tongzhi/queer imaginaries are articulated, focusing on four main themes: the Chinese familial system, Chinese opera, camp aesthetic, and documentary impulse. Chao’s discursive analysis is rooted in and advances genealogical inquiries: a non-essentialist intervention into the "Chinese" idea of filial piety, a transcultural perspective on the contested genre of film melodrama, a historical investigation of the local articulations of mass camp and gay camp, and a transnational inquiry into the different formats of documentary. This book is a must for anyone exploring the cultural history of Chinese tongzhi/queer through the lens of transcultural media.

Abstract:
In social science research, the demographic categories of ethnicity are linked to what the census bureau considers as a person’s ethnic heritage. However, these categories are based on the societal assumption that members of a given category share the same characteristics and life experiences, even though the heterogeneity between members within a category may be as diverse as between categories. The paper examines the 15 interview subjects of a research study drawn from 10 minority migrant groups, where seven of them indicated significant transcultural experiences before migrating to Australia. It argues that their lived experiences and subjectivity vary from others who migrated directly from their native countries. The formers’ diaspora consciousness and transcultural mixtures may introduce an artifact to a research study’s design, affecting the validity of the data collected. The paper examines other situations where this anomaly can occur and proposes precautions to minimize its negative effects.
