Storytelling and the National Security of America: Korean War Stories from the Cold War to Post-9/11 EraJingyi Liu (7901657) 21 November 2019 (has links)
<p>My dissertation
is an interdisciplinary study of the Korean War stories in America in relation
to the history of the national security state of America from the Cold War to
post-911 era. Categorizing the Korean War stories in three phases in parallel
with three dramatic episodes in the national security of America, including the
institutionalization of national security in the early Cold War, the collapse
of the Soviet Union and the bipolar Cold War system in the 1990s, and the
institutionalization of homeland security after the 9/11 attacks, I argue that
storytelling of the Korean War morphs with the changes of national security
politics in America. Reading James Michener’s Korean War stories, <i>Invasion of the Body Snatchers</i> (1956),
and <i>The Manchurian Candidate</i> (1962)
in the 1950s and early 1960s, I argue that the first-phase Korean War stories
cooperated with the state, translating and popularizing key themes in the
national security policies through racial and gender tropes. Focusing on Helie
Lee’s <i>Still Life with Rice</i> (1996),
Susan Choi’s <i>The Foreign Student</i>
(1998), and Heinz Insu Fenkl’s <i>Memories
of My Ghost Brother</i> (1996) in the 1990s, I maintain that the second-phase
Korean War stories by Korean American writers form a narrative resistance
against the ideology of national security and provide alternative histories of
racial and gender violence in America’s national security programs. Further
reading post-911 Korean War novels such as Toni Morrison’s <i>Home</i> (2012), Ha Jin’s <i>War
Trash</i> (2005), and Chang-Rae Lee’s <i>The
Surrendered</i> (2010), I contend that in the third-phase Korean War stories,
the Korean War is deployed as a historical analogy to understand the War on
Terror and diverse writers’ revisiting the war offers alternative perspectives
on healing and understanding “homeland” for a traumatized American society.
Taken together, these Korean War stories exemplify the politics of storytelling
that engages with the national security state and the complex ways individual
narratives interact with national narratives. Moreover, the continued morphing
of the Korean War in literary representation demonstrates the vitality of the
“forgotten war” and constantly reminds us the war’s legacy.</p>

Previous issue date: 2014-10-21 / The Permanent Education in Health (Educação Permanente em Saúde - EPS) is a pedagogical strategy recognized by the Pan American Health Organization in Latin America as a method to consolidate public healthcare systems around the world since regular educational activities in health alone are not capable of fulfill the needs of the population and increase the quality of the service. This study discuss the Permanent Education in Health in the city of São Carlos SP and aims to identify and problematize the limitations and potentialities pointed by the local healthcare workers and managers in other to contribute to the development of the strategy in the city. The study uses a qualitative research method through semi-structured interviews of nine actors directly related to the local EPS activities. The results show that the EPS in the city is weakened by different factors such as: fragmented actions in education; lack of knowledge or misunderstanding of the concept of EPS by the workers and mainly by the managers; and above all, rupture of project and political policies due to changes in the government political party. Despite the obstacles, the study also revels positive aspects of the EPS implementation in the city, like: good partnership between healthcare network and educational institutions; investment in activities of education in health; and involvement in governmental forums of EPS discussions and planning. The study conclude that EPS can evolve by increasing the articulation between the players involved in the public health system SUS (teaching, management, care, and social control), to guarantee the continuous consolidation the National Policy of Permanent Education in Health. / A Educação Permanente em Saúde (EPS) é uma estratégia pedagógica de educação em saúde reconhecida pela Organização Pan-Americana de Saúde (OPAS) em toda América Latina para solidificar os sistemas públicos de saúde, visto que as atividades educativas em saúde não têm sido efetivas para atender as necessidades de saúde da população e realizar mudanças na qualidade dos serviços de saúde. Este estudo busca analisar o processo da Educação Permanente em Saúde de acordo com as políticas e diretrizes no município de São Carlos, além de ponderar os impasses que dificultam o processo de Educação Permanente em Saúde e suas condições de realização e contribuir para o desenvolvimento e articulação do processo de EPS no município. A discussão está subsidiada na técnica qualitativa de pesquisa, especificamente, por meio de entrevista semiestruturada realizada com nove sujeitos que estão diretamente ligados à EPS nesse município. Os resultados demonstram que a EPS no município encontra-se fragilizada por diversos fatores como: ações de educação em saúde ocorrem de modo fragmentado, pela falta de conhecimento ou diferentes concepções dos sujeitos e principalmente pelos gestores acerca da EPS, e, sobretudo, pela ruptura de projetos e políticas devido à alternância de governos e de partidos, como ocorrido com a implementação da EPS no município de São Carlos. Apesar disso, a pesquisa evidenciou que o município possui também potenciais para a estruturação e efetivação da EPS, tal como a parceria rede-escola, recursos investidos em atividades de educação em saúde e representatividade nos colegiados de discussão e planejamento de EPS. Assim sendo, concluise que apesar de fragilizada, a EPS possui possibilidade de ascensão. Sugere-se, a partir dos resultados deste estudo, que a articulação dos atores que formam o quadrilátero do SUS (ensino, gestão, atenção e controle social) seja fortalecida de modo a garantir a continuidade e a consolidação da Política Nacional de Educação Permanente em Saúde.
