The Influence of Asian Immigration on the Architectural Culture of Canada: A Study on the Preservation of Asian Culture and Identity in Architecture in Canada

Henry Hing-Yip Tsang(Henry Hing-Yip Tsang ) 한국캐나다학회 2017 Asia-Pacific Journal of Canadian Studies (APJCS) Vol.23 No.2

Immigrants from Asian countries to Canada has a history dating back to the 18th Century, and Asian-Canadians today make up an increasingly significant part of the Canadian population. As these communities grow over generations, they become an integral part of the culture and heritage of Canada’s own culture of multiculturalism. Originating from Asia and reestablishing themselves in Canada, immigrants carry with them culture, customs and away of life to their new home, ranging from new food, fashion, customs, language and even the way to construct buildings. This paper studies the relationship of Asian immigrant communities with the spaces and buildings they occupy, and how they inhabit and adapted spaces, buildings and cities to represent the culture and identity of their country of origin. In particular, the paper will focus on three major Asian ethnic groups: Chinese, Japanese and Korean, trace their paths and identify major tendencies in how each have attempted to preserve culture and express identity in the design of significant buildings in their communities. The research methodology consists firstly of literature review on the subject of Asian immigration and the mapping of major architectural style trends in Canada. Secondly, a selection of buildings were identified from each community for further analysis, including site visits, study of architectural drawings, plans, photographs, as well as interviews with building occupants to better understand the significance of these buildings and how they were conceived to represent their ethnic communities. Preliminary results indicate that the Chinese community, with along history of immigration to Canada, expresses identity mainly in the exterior appearance of the buildings. The Japanese community has a scattered history of immigration to Canada and the expression of identity is rather subdued and the expression is present mainly in the building’s interior. The Korean community is relatively young in Canada, and has a tendency to adapt existing spaces and buildings, while expressing culture and identity through signage and decoration.

A Brief Review of the Traditional Indigenous Architecture of Canada

Henry Hing-Yip Tsang(Henry Hing-Yip Tsang ) 한국캐나다학회 2020 Asia-Pacific Journal of Canadian Studies (APJCS) Vol.25 No.2

The identity of Canadian architecture is hard to define. Many waves of immigration of all contributed in sculpting the built environment in Canadian cities. Identity has much to do with origins, therefore tracing Canadian architecture should start by studying the architecture of our First Nations and indigenous people. This paper briefly explores the roots of Canadian architecture tracing back to the various indigenous tribes of Canada and outlines the main characteristics of the vernacular architecture built by these people. This paper review seven major typologies of indigenous architecture found in Canada: the Wigwam, the Longhouse, the Tipi, the Pit House, the Thule Winter House, the Plank House and the Igloo. Different indigenous tribes construct different styles of architecture as shelters that respond to their particular abodes and lifestyle. For instance, tribes living in colder climates construct narrow entrance tunnels for preventing cold wind drifts, whiles other tribes dig earth and construct their shelters protected by tree bark and soil. Further, living styles also influence the different types of shelters. Nomadic tribes carry thin long logs and animal hide with them and construct Pit Houses in places where they spend days chasing bison herds. Other tribes, engaged in agriculture therefore need a more permanent residence, such as the Iroquois who build Longhouses with wood bark and mats. Although this paper is brief, it lays the foundation for those who wish to understand and pursue further research into the different typologies of indigenous architecture of Canada.

The dentist-scientist career pathway in Africa

Henry Ademola Adeola,Anthonio Adefuye,Olujide Soyele,Azeez Butali 한국의학교육학회 2018 Korean journal of medical education Vol.30 No.3

The future of evidence-based dentistry in developing Africa heavily depends on a sustainable establishment of a vibrant dentist-scientist workforce. A dentist scientist is saddled with the responsibility of carrying out robust cutting edge research projects that are inspired by clinical experience. Currently, there are no pipelines in place to systematically train such dentists, neither are there programs in place to allow trained African dentists choose such a career pathway. A dentist-scientist is a person who studied oral, dental, maxillofacial (or craniofacial) diseases, prevention, and population sciences (obtaining a medical degrees such as bachelor of dental surgery [BDS] or BChD) alone; or in combination with other advanced degrees such as doctor of dental surgery (DDS)/doctor of philosophy (PhD) or BDS/PhD. This situation has resulted in overdependence of African clinical practice on research findings from technologically advanced Western countries and a decline in clinical research capacity building. The career path of a dentist-scientist should involve research along the spectrum of basic biomedical sciences, translational, clinical and public health sciences. There are several factors responsible for the ultra-low count of dentist-scientist in the heterogeneous African communities such as: poor biomedical research infrastructure; lack of funding; absence of structured dentist scientist career pathways; lack of personnel, inter alia. Hence, this review hopes to discuss the opportunities of setting up a dentist-scientist training pathway in Africa (as obtains in most developed world settings), identify opportunities and prospects of developing an African dentist-scientist workforce, and finally discuss the challenges involved.

이민의 이야기를 가진 사람들을 통합하기

Henry von Bose,이범성 한국교회사회사업학회 2009 교회와 사회복지 Vol.10 No.-

이주민의 통합은 인종적, 문화적 다양성을 가진 모든 인류가 하나의 사회에서 평화롭고 미래가 있는 공존을 하려는 목적을 갖고 있다. 인종적 그리고 문화적 다양성이 한 사회의 부가가치를 말해준다는 것은 오늘날 독일에서의 일반적인 인식이다. 교회는 그 동안 이주를 통해서 얻어지는 사회 구성원의 다양화가 우리 모두를 위한 이득이라고 주장해 온 대표적 집단이다. 1989년에 독일 통일의 어려운 과정이 시작되자마자, 독일사회는 늘어나는 망명신청자들의 숫자 때문에 논쟁을 시작하게 되었다. 동서독에서의 주장들은 거세게 망명자들을 거부하는 것으로 나타났는데, 그 이유는 먼저 노동이민자들과 그들의 가족들의 통합이 그 동안 제대로 이루어지지 않았던 사실에서 비롯된다. 통합을 위해 결정적인 것으로서 수용과 가치를 인정하는 분위기가 중요한데, 교회공동체의 가능성과 과제들은 이와 관련하여, 지역에서 이주민들과 공생하는 과제에 대해 도전받는다. 여기에서는 동종의 문화에‘타인들’이 통합되는 것이 문제가 아니라, 다양화된 사회 안에 모두가 참여하는 것을 촉진하는 것이 문제가 된다. 교회는 지금 처음으로 이방인을 사랑하라는 성서적 계명의 진실을 유효하게 만들 수 있는 기회를 맞이했다. 그들은 우리나라에서 모든 인간들의 상호인정의 문화를 만드는 일에 기여할 수 있다. 부담과 부요해짐은 우리 사회의 다채로운 공존 안에서 항상 다시금 세워질 수 있다. 부담에서 벗어 날 수는 없지만 풍요로워지는 것에 대해서는 기뻐할 수 있다. 그래서 희망하기는, 우리 앞에 좋은 길이 놓여 있다는 것이다. Die Integration von Menschen mit Migrationsgeschichte zielt auf ein friedliches und zukunftsgerichtetes Zusammenleben aller Menschen mit ihrer ethnischen und kulturellen Vielfalt in einer Gesellschaft. Dass ethnische und kulturelle Vielfalt einen gesellschaftlichen Mehrwert darstellen, gilt als politische Einsicht heute allgemein in Deutschland. Natuerlich gibt es Kraefte in der Gesellschaft und dazu gehoeren besonders die Kirchen, die schon seit Jahrzehnten vertreten: Die Vielfalt der Bevoelkerung durch die Einwanderung ist ein Gewinn fuer uns alle. Kaum begann 1989 der schwierige Prozess der deutsch-deutschen Vereinigung, hatte sich die gesamtdeutsch werdende Gesellschaft mit einer zunehmenden Zahl von Asylsuchenden auseinanderzusetzen. Die Stimmung in Ost und West richtete sich vehement gegen Fluechtlinge, weil die Integration der Arbeitsmigranten und ihrer Familien nicht gelungen, mehr noch: nicht gewollt war. Da es fuer die Integration entscheidend um ein Klima der Akzeptanz und Wertschaetzung geht, sind die Moeglichkeiten und Aufgaben der Kirchengemeinden damit deutlich angesprochen. Von dieser Glaubensverantwortung geleitet sehen sich Kirchengemeinden von den Aufgaben des Zusammenlebens mit Eingewanderten in ihrem Ort herausgefordert. Es geht nicht um die Integration der "eAnderen"fin eine homogene Gesellschaft, sondern um die Foerderung von Teilhabe in der vielfaeltiger gewordenen Gesellschaft."fDie Kirchen haben jetzt erst recht die Gelegenheit, die Wahrheit der biblischen Gebote der Fremdenliebe zur Geltung zu bringen sie koennen zu einer Kultur der gegenseitigen Anerkennung aller Menschen in unserem Land beitragen. Belastung und Bereicherung werden sich immer wieder einstellen im bunten Zusammenleben unserer Gesellschaft. Vor Belastungen nicht ausweichen, sich an Bereicherung freuen: so werden hoffentlich gute Wege vor uns liegen.

Governmentality in Late Colonial Korea?

Henry Em 고려대학교 민족문화연구원 2012 Cross-Currents Vol.- No.5

In South Korea, more so than in most other postcolonial countries, the issue of sovereignty and the colonial past remains a central feature of politics. Most recently, during a televised presidential debate on December 4, 2012, Lee Jung-hee of the Unified Progressive Party said something that likely had never been said on South Korean television: “Takaki Masao signed an oath of loyalty [to the Emperor of Japan], in his own blood, to become an officer in the Japanese [Imperial] Army. You know who he is. His Korean name is Park Chung Hee.” Lee Jung-hee then made the connection between that colonial past and the willingness to sell out the nation’s sovereignty in the present. The conservative candidate Park Geun-hye, the daughter of the late President Park Chung Hee who ruled South Korea from 1961 through 1979, and members of Park’s Saenuri Party, remain true to their “roots”: these “descendants of pro-Japanese collaborators and dictators” (again) sold out South Korea’s sovereignty (on November 22, 2011) when they rammed the US-ROK Free Trade Agreement through the National Assembly. . .
