Caregiving Experiences of Community-Based Caregivers for the Elderly in China

Honglin Chen, Fudan University

Tuesday, April 19, 2016
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall Room 10383

An important part of long-term care system in China are the services provided by community caregivers associated with older peoples’ quality of life. In order to understand the nature of caregiving experiences among community-based caregivers for the elderly and to identify critical factors that affect those experiences; we employed a qualitative approach to study community-based caregivers in a selected community in Pudong, Shanghai, in southeastern China. Semi-structured in-depth interviews and focus group interviews were conducted among 20 community-based caregivers in the spring of 2015.
This study found that：（1）The community-based caregivers for the elderly that we interviewed were mainly middle-aged or older and mostly female, and they tended to live close to the elderly in order to maintain a convenient and pleasant caregiving service for both parties. They were in the bottom tier of the income system, and they were pessimistic about their future careers. Their jobs involved a great deal of multitasking, which was quite informal.（2）The community-based caregivers had positive experiences in terms of direct caregiving activities, characterized by a sense of achievement and satisfaction with their relationship with the care recipient, their social role, and their personal growth. They felt somehow a sense of felt competent at their job.（3）However, they had had some negative experiences, mainly resulting from "dealing with" the elderly and "battling" with the elderly’s families. They also complained about their workloads and worried about their futures.（4）Based on analysis of the interviews, the main factors influencing caregiving experiences were categorized as personal factors, work factors, or social factors. Suggestions to improve the community caregivers’ caregiving experiences are discussed, and some suggestions to improve the long-term care system for the elderly in China are presented.

Honglin Chen is an associate professor and the vice chair at the Department of Social Work, Fudan university. She has been working in the research area on family, aging, social capital, and social services for the past few years and has published more than 20 papers internationally.

Water Festival as Spectacle：Sino-Burmese Identities, Ethnic Politics and Public Performances in Macau

UCLA：2016 Wilbur Woo Greater China Business Conference 4/22

Thursday, April 28, 2016
4:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Bunche Hall 10383
In the decades after Ne Win’s military regime seized power in 1962 and anti-Chinese riots occurred in 1967, many Sino-Burmese people chose to flee Burma and immigrate to Macau. Today, they number over 40,000, making up 8% of Macau’s total population. They also constitute 60% of what the Macanese government officially calls gui qiao（“returning overseas Chinese”）, and are thus recognized as Macau’s largest gui qiao community. To claim their ethnic subjectivity, this group has successfully created a unique Sino-Burmese Water Festival（derived from the Burmese Theravada Buddhist thingyan festival）. When it was first held in 1995, it was simply a community initiative to commemorate their nostalgia towards their second homeland, Burma. Soon after Macau’s sovereignty was transferred from Portugal to China in 1999, the Macanese government transformed this festival from a one-day community gathering into a three-day grand Water Festival Carnival. The transformation has not only helped the group form a notable ethnic identity, mian hua（Burmese Chinese）, but also boosted Macau’s city tourism, which, along with its gambling enterprises, facilitates an economic boom enjoyed by all residents.

Based on an ethnographic study conducted in 2015 and 2016, this talk examines how music and dance are crucial to the making of the Sino-Burmese water festival, and to its articulation of identity. The festival can be said to draw on collective understanding of space and agency, and to operate within a rhetoric of multiculturalism, nostalgic sentiments, community networks and bureaucratic logic. However, whilst presenting this cultural production as spectacular, the festival has obscured the continuous unbalanced power dynamics amongst subgroups. A “twin festival” phenomenon reveals the tensions sparked between the Sino-Burmese inhabitants and ethnic Burmese migrant workers occurring in recent years. This speaks to the idea of “festival reclamation,” where subaltern groups reclaim representations of a festival constructed by the dominant culture.

Tasaw Hsin-chun LU （Ph.D. UCLA in Ethnomusicology, 2007）is an associate research fellow at the Institute of Ethnology in Academia Sinica, Taiwan. With a geocultural focus on Burma and its diasporas, her research interests are the everyday politics, identity shifts, soundscape formation, and embodiment as exemplified in music performances. Her ongoing project is a comparative ethnographic study concerning the Sino-Burmese musical practices in Yangon, as well as those in Taiwan and Macau. She is the author ofUnfaded Splendor：Representation and Modernity of the Burmese Classical Music Tradition（National Taiwan University Press, 2012）, and co-producer, with a filmmaker Chuan-Chiang YU, of a documentary film “Musical Sojourn：Circle of the Losing Drum”（2015）on a legendary Burmese drummer in exile.
