The past decade has witnessed the rapid growth in the number of mobile phone users in China. According to a survey conducted
amongst migrant workers and reported in this study, mobile phones have become sufficiently affordable for an overwhelming
majority of migrants. Drawing on examples from Beijing, this article discusses the implications of mobile phone usage among
migrant workers in China. Through an analysis of their stories about their daily lives, this paper attempts to explicate migrant
workers’ mobile phone usage against a background of their alienated situation in Beijing. The author explores the responses
of the migrants to their situation in relation to the social usage of mobile phone and specifically introduces and discusses
four concepts for understanding patterns of migrant mobile phone use: feigned presence, concern in absence, jianghu relations, and romantic relations. The paper ends with the conclusion that the patterns of mobile phone usage contribute to changes in migrant workers’ way
of life. Residual problems and avenues of future research that arise from this study are also discussed in the conclusion.

In this paper, we analyze the data collected through in-depth interviews of migrant workers in Southern China about their
mobile cultures. In particular, we focus on understanding the role that mobile cultures play in female workers’ negotiation
of their social and romantic relations and leisure space and how these negotiations are directly or indirectly facilitated
by development of informal literacies through their frequent short message service communicative practices. These will help
us understand the lifestyle aspirations and life trajectories of the new young working women in China who are experiencing
the most rapid socioeconomic changes in society and negotiating their ways of life amidst much tension between old and new
values governing lifestyle aspirations, familial, and gender relations.

Raymond Williams’ work on television as a cultural form offers a theoretical basis for overcoming technological determinism
in the study of the Internet. The Internet in China exerts social and political influences through the cultural forms it enables
and then only when these forms respond to the human condition. Chinese Internet culture consists of new cultural forms that
emerge out of the interactions between Internet and society and that are the products of both cultural tradition and innovation.

With the rapid growth of the number of netizens in China, the Internet has become one of the most important parts in the lives
of people who not only can get more information on the Internet, but can also express their own views. In other words, the
Internet has also become a part of real-world events. Drawing on a case study about ‘The Boycott of Carrefour’ in China during
the spring of 2008, the paper first discusses the role and functions of new media during the incident. Through analyses of
a story about the culture of labeling others and a conflict between burning a wrong flag in this case, the paper then explores
the capriciousness of Chinese cyberspace. The author proposes an explanation on how the illusion of truth is generated on
the Internet and then influences the events in the real world. The paper concludes that the Internet is not just a simple
technological tool, but it is intertwined with the sociocultural contexts in which it is rooted.

The paper discusses issues related to the use of faceted classifications in an online environment. The author argues that
knowledge organization systems can be fully utilized in information retrieval only if they are exposed and made available
for machine processing. The experience with classification automation to date may be used to speed up and ease the conversion
of existing faceted schemes or the creation of management tools for new systems. The author suggests that it is possible to
agree on a set of functional requirements for supporting faceted classifications online that are equally relevant for the
maintenance of classifications, the creation of classification indexing tools, or the management of classifications in an
authority file. It is suggested that a set of requirements for analytico-synthetic classifications may be put forward to improve
standards for the use and exchange of knowledge organization systems.

In this introduction we discuss the motivation behind the workshop “Towards a New Epistemology of Mathematics” of which this
special issue constitutes the proceedings. We elaborate on historical and empirical aspects of the desired new epistemology,
connect it to the public image of mathematics, and give a summary and an introduction to the contributions to this issue.

Zusammenfassung Die Außendarstellung im Internet ist wichtig und in der Zukunft unverzichtbar. Jedoch hat die Liberalisierung des Werberechts der freien Berufe keineswegs zur absoluten Schrankenlosigkeit geführt. Vielmehr sind die zu beachtenden Regeln auf verschiedene Gesetze und Rechtsgebiete verstreut, so dass ohne fachkundige Hilfe—etwa durch die Kammern oder durch juristische Beratung—die Selbstdarstellung im Internet schnell zu einem bösen Erwachen führen kann.

The characteristics of Internet communication enable political, social, and cultural participation from the grassroots not
only because the platforms provided by the Internet are open to all and inherently interactive but also because users are
able to maintain their anonymity. Although, in theory, Internet communication is well-suited to the purposes of non-profit
organization(s) (NPO(s)), in practice, Chinese NPOs do not to take full advantages of the Internet because of their bureaucratic
and elitist approach. However, many Chinese who were once passive observers have been transformed into active participants
as a result of Internet communication. This is significant because a civil society in China can only be achieved by the efforts
of agents, not observers. Internet users have been actively learning the goals of civil society and participating in civil
and political activities on the Internet, while Chinese NPOs rarely use the medium for advocacy.

Relatively little is known about the factor structure of disruptive behavior among preadolescent girls. The present study
reports on exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses of disruptive girl behavior over four successive data waves as rated
by parents and teachers in a large, representative community sample of girls (N = 2,451). Five factors were identified from parent ratings (oppositional behavior/conduct problems, inattention, hyperactivity/impulsivity,
relational aggression, and callous-unemotional behaviors), and four factors were identified derived from teacher ratings (oppositional
behavior/conduct problems/callous-unemotional behaviors, inattention, hyperactivityimpulsivity, and relational aggression).
There was a high degree of consistency of items loading on equivalent factors across parent and teacher ratings. Year-to-year
stability of factors between ages five and 12 was high for parent ratings (ICC = 0.70 to 0.88), and slightly lower for teacher
ratings (ICC = 0.56 to 0.83). These findings are discussed in terms of possible adjustment to the criteria for children's
disruptive behavior disorders found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual for Mental Disorders.

In this paper we discuss visualizations in mathematics from a historical and didactical perspective. We consider historical
debates from the 17th and 19th centuries regarding the role of intuition and visualizations in mathematics. We also consider
the problem of what a visualization in mathematical learning can achieve. In an empirical study we investigate what mathematical
conclusions university students made on the basis of a visualization. We emphasize that a visualization in mathematics should
always be considered in its proper context.

This paper presents an new epistemicist account of vagueness, one that avoids standard arbitrariness worries by exploiting

This article compares two projects designed to train groups of rural Rajasthani women as community health workers. Through
ethnographic research conducted during the training periods of each project I highlight stark differences in the management
and structural approaches. The successful project recognised the importance of rituals, specifically puja, in the daily lives
of participants. Both the NGO management and the trainees performed daily rituals that helped foster a supportive network.
Sensitivity combined with a wider insight into the practical realities and constraints facing women in rural Rajasthan contributed
to the long-term success of the second project. The first project has folded. I argue a lack of open dialogue and real connection
with participants meant the project’s management were unable to adapt /tailor the program to the needs and experiences of
the women involved.

By focusing on Internet application initiatives in four places in rural China, this study examines how the Internet is diffused
and used in rural settings and what potential it has in helping rural people improve economic conditions and education. The
results of this study show that the diffusion and usage of the Internet in rural areas are conditioned by the interplay of
structural factors and individual differences. The change agencies have played a dominant role in introducing the Internet
to the rural people. One of the major findings of this study is that Internet adoption and usage tend to be closely associated
with local farming and business activities. The information needs, conditioned by the modes of production, influence farmers’
information seeking behaviours, which in turn affect adoption inclination and intensive usage.

The approach that philosophers have taken to history has too often been one-dimensional. It is my aim in this paper to map
out a future multi-dimensional philosophy of history, by invoking the notion of a relation with the past, and by arguing for
the philosophical relevance of multiple such relations.
