Minding the Metaphor: Vietnamese State-Run Press Coverage of Social Movements Abroad / Cari An Coe. // Journal of Vietnamese Studies 2014, Vol. 9, No. 1.
2014
p. 1-35

This paper analyzes Vietnamese online media coverage of recent social movements in Egypt, Thailand and Burma to examine how the communist party-state’s media covers events abroad that could be seen as having metaphorical significance or potential for political change in Vietnam. It shows that different social movements receive varying levels of coverage with different emphases in terms of content. While commercialization of the state-run press in Vietnam has perhaps opened a neoliberal space for alternative representations of information, resulting in press coverage of international social movements that largely mirrors Western coverage, the Vietnamese media still carefully steers clear of any metaphorical meanings that these events may evoke for the party-state.

Resilience linguistics orthography and the Gong / David Bradley // Language and education 2011, Vol25, N.3
2011
p. 349-360

The Gong are minority group of western Thailand whose language has been in decline for over a century, In the 1920s, the first report of the language predicted its imminent demine, Since then, it has contacted to two villages outside its traditional territory. The language there Is under threat, particularly since the 1970s with roads, schools, electrisity, Buddhist temples and immovement of Thai speakers. We have been working with Ihe Gong since 1977. In 1982, we devised an orthography based on Thai. Since the mid-1980s, with support from the Thailand Research Fund and assistance from a Thai univernlly, villager have been trained and assisted to document their traditional activities, both nonlinguistic and linguistic. However, no children have learned the language In the home tor nearly 40 years. The youngest fully fluent speakers are now In their 60s, with semispeakers of varying degrees of fluency down to the age of 40 and somewhat younger people with limited active or passive knowledge. Language revitalization is difficult, even with an orthography, teaching materials and community goodwill. This is a test for resiliece linguistics, a new paradigm based on resilience thinking that attempts to empower and assist communities in their language and culture maintenance
