China’s Africa Policy: Business Now, Politics Later
Michal Meidan 경남대학교 극동문제연구소 2006 ASIAN PERSPECTIVE Vol.30 No.4
For the last decade, and increasingly in the last three years, Chinese politicians and businessmen have been taking the African continent by storm. China’s growing demand for raw materials has led it to closer involvement in the continent, balancing its growing trade deficit with exports of commodities and labor. But China has not neglected the ideological component of its African policy and is stressing South-South cooperation and promotion of a new world order; it is turning much of its investment aid to Africa, and unlike the West, investment aid from China comes with no political strings attached. The question that this article addresses is China’s interest in and goals for its ties with Africa. Is China trying to consolidate a new world order, based on different moral values, conflicting with the current world order; or is China still a pragmatic actor, exploiting African resources in order to satisfy its growing demand for raw materials?

This paper offers selected remarks regarding the implications for the spread of the title khan, khagan and khatun in the languages of Inner Asia.1) After the introduction in the first part of the article, the questions of the typology of the syllable and ethnolinguistic ambiguity are mentioned in the second part. The third part follows with a brief chronology of the spread and basic forms of the title in Inner Asian languages (Old Turkic and Indo-European, Mongolic and Tungusic; Chinese transcriptions are planned for a separate paper). The next fourth part discusses examples of semantical changes appearing in the process of borrowing to differing cultural contexts. The fifth part focuses on possible sources of the word and its early use in Koguryo and Sino-Korean. It is followed by an interpretation based on past climate change and extensive migration patterns in the final sixth section. A preliminary conclusion points out that the relocation of Koguryo and other people contributed to the spread of possible source-words in north Inner Asia and created conditions for the use of this title by a different (in fact multiethnic) nobility. The second part of the disyllabic title might be partly related to a diminutive marker or marker of deification.
Health-Related Quality of Life in Parkinson’s disease patients and their caregivers

PD patients reported significantly decreased physical and mental HRQoL compared to their caregivers (both p < 0.001). Unemployment, the need for social support services, rehabilitation use, REM sleep behavior disorder, impulse control disorders and features suggestive of increasing disease severity hallmarked by increasing PD duration, higher MDS UPDRS-III (Movement Disorder Society–Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale–Part III) scores, higher daily levodopa equivalence dose and motor fluctuations were consistent with a lower HRQoL in our PD cohort. Furthermore, decreased physical activity, chronic pain, depression, constipation and upper gastrointestinal dysfunction (particularly indigestion, excess fullness and bloating) suggested vulnerability to reduced HRQoL. Overall, PD patients perceived their health to decline by 12% more than their caregivers did over a 1-year period.
