Zu keiner Zeit in ihrer 25jährigen Geschichte ist die revolutionäre Bewegung derart heimtückisch aus ihren eigenen Reihen angegriffen und ihre Einheit und ihr Überleben so ernsthaft bedroht worden. Es ist der Führung der Partei, von der überwältigenden Mehrheit der revolutionären Kräfte unterstützt, zu verdanken, daß die Kommunistische Partei der Philippinen (CPP), die Neue Volksarmee (NPA), die Nationale Demokratische Front (NDF) und die revolutionären Massen im großen und ganzen intakt und fest geblieben sind.

AbstractWe analyse data from the Programme for the International Assessment of Adult Competencies to reveal that immigrants in Canada and the United States make over $200 less per month than native‐born workers. In the United States, immigrants disproportionately work in low‐wage occupations, leading to large mean national differences between immigrants and native workers. The wage differential disappears after accounting for education and cognitive skills, indicating policies must focus on reducing education and skill gaps in the United States. In Canada, an immigrant wage gap persists in nearly all occupational fields, suggesting that the better skilled and educated immigrants in Canada are not receiving the same wage premium as native workers. We close with implications for policy and future research.

Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) educators have a unique opportunity to prepare voters who are knowledgeable about science-related policy issues that inevitably become election issues (Rudolph & Horibe, 2016). A substantial body of higher education literature indicates that college students learn civic values and commit to civic engagement through their curricular and co-curricular experiences (Bowman, 2011; Hurtado et al., 2012). Within STEM education, in particular, we study whether, and to what extent, students' curricular, co-curricular, and classroom experiences—as well as background characteristics—relate to political engagement. We analyze data from the 2017 Student Experience in the Research University survey, using self-reported measures of voting in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and self-assessed political efficacy for 5,838 STEM students at six research universities. We use regression analyses to examine relationships among curricular, co-curricular, and classroom experiences with STEM undergraduates' political engagement. Instead of simply examining whether STEM majors are less politically engaged than their non-STEM peers, our analyses and results provide insights about how STEM academic departments and faculty members can support students' political engagement. We offer implications for education policy and practice for supporting STEM students' political engagement through undergraduate experiences. ; Los profesores de ciencia, tecnología, ingeniería y matemáticas (STEM, por sus siglas en inglés) tienen la oportunidad singular de preparar a votantes potenciales en temas relacionados a políticas de la ciencia, que inevitablemente se convierten en temas a considerar para las elecciones (Rudolph & Horibe, 2016). Una cantidad considerable de literatura de educación superior indica que los universitarios aprenden valores cívicos y se comprometen a la participación cívica a través de sus experiencias curriculares y cocurrriculares (Bowman, 2011; Hurtado et al., ...
