Essays on Middle East

Introduction

One of the most significant topics of the Middle East history that is considered to be Arab cultural awakening is undoubtedly Arab nationalism.

A lot of scholars may even get into a mess in defining Arabs, as well as determining what is meant by Arab nationalism. However, taking into consideration the fact that the twenty-first century is characterized by a considerable political activeness, much attention should be paid to Arabs ...

However, this study is going to focus on effects of Turkey’s government involvement in ...

Peter the Great is considered to be the tsar, who has dragged Russia out of the medieval circumstances to such a degree, that by his passing in 1725, Russia was viewed as a main eastern European state.

While the concept of race is today clearly recognized as fictitious, the term itself has taken an altogether new reality as a cultural denotation. More specifically, the culture of racism is largely influenced by geopolitical imagination and socio-political antagonism. The new political order referred to as “Empire” is a social frame work that posits “the inferiority of an “Other” based not in biology but in cultural differences and their insurmountability” (Semati, 257). Semati argues that ‘Brown’, once signified exoticism, but refers to menacing ‘Other’ today. The Brown in this case (in Semati’s article) refers to the Muslims of ...

Thesis

The historians and politicians present different reasons for the invasion of Kuwait by Iraq and the development of a global coalition to expel Saddam’s forces from Kuwait. Among the reasons for the First Persian Gulf War, historians claim that the war was caused by Iraq’s historical claim on Kuwaiti region; Kuwait consistently failed to control their production quotas; Kuwait rejected Iraq’s request to lease bordering oil fields; Kuwait offered only $ 9 billion as damages for slant drilling; and Kuwait failed to respect the oil rates decided by the OPEC. The combination of these factors was hurting ...

The purpose of this paper is to argue that the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians cannot be solved. This paper will use elements of persuasion to establish a case to prove that America must stay away from imposing its will on ...

In addressing the issue of religious values, the authors of two books, Confucius Lives Next Door: What Living in the East Teaches Us about Living in the West and Children of Dust: A Portrait of a Muslim as a ...

The Assassination of Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey

As I look at the photograph of the assassination of Russia’s ambassador to Turkey, Andrey Karlov, I am able to enter the same gallery that elicits an aroma of a freshly cleaned place where I witness the anguish of the assassin, hear the loud voice of his conviction, and experience the bitter taste of death that sends chills down my spine. In the photograph, we can see the subjects in a place that is entirely painted in white. Three photographs can be seen hanging on the wall, and it can be assumed that other photographs are ...

Literature Review

Literature Review

Methodology: Scholarly articles/ journals. Literature Review It is worth mentioning that most critics have blamed the Islam religion for the rise of terrorism and other insecurities across the world. The West has been especially critical of anybody that has an Islam background because most terrorists cite the Islamic ideologies to kill others. The religious intolerance has led to misunderstandings between mostly the West and the Islamic countries. The perspective has come to be popularly known as the Islam-West divide by most scholars. While explaining the Islam-West divide, Nader Hashemi (2014) states that religion and politics have been ...

Introduction

The broad issue of gender equality and empowerment of women has been discussed in length and depth by various stakeholders in society. In fact, the topic stands out as one of the most highly debated issues through the years. The continued occurrence of incidences of gender discrimination clearly points out that the debates are yet to yield their ultimate objectives. The primary contention in all such arguments is the continuous portrayal of women as a lesser gender and thus belittling the morality and feminine’s obligations in society. Male chauvinists, who consider themselves superior and more potent have continuously ...

The three countries chosen for this paper are Jordan, Japan, and Germany. These three countries were chosen because they are among the most developed in their own specific regions. Geert Hofstede’s cultural dimensions helped establish a positive framework for cross-cultural communications; in fact, part of his theories are implemented in every major international business course in the world. Hofstede’s model is based on six dimensions: the power-distance index, individualism vs collectivism, the uncertainty avoidance index, masculinity vs femininity, long-term orientation vs short-term orientation, and indulgence vs restraint. Each country and each culture has very different levels of ...

It is well known, 90% of Saudi Arabia’s exports are energy products, but the increased exports from other nations will lead to the reduction in the Saudi’s dominant market share (Howells, 2016). This will make other economic issues for the country even worse. This paper will discuss the main economic issue facing Saudi Arabia, which is the poor educational infrastructure. The poor educational infrastructure of Saudi Arabia is a serious problem that will play out for generations to come. When the population has limited educational skills, it becomes difficult to fill skilled employment positions. As of 2013, ...

At the beginning of Ismaël Ferroukhi’s first feature film, “Le Grand Voyage”, the relationship between father and son is very tense, due to the generational gap which stops them from forming a truly close relationship. The beginning of the pilgrimage to Mecca finds Reda and his father very different. They seem to have nothing in common. The aged Moroccan immigrant cannot communicate effectively with his French son, and this is emphasized by the fact that they do not even speak the same language for most of the film. Even more important than the generational gap is the ...

Glassmaking Technologies in the Late 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, 1351-1323 BCE

Description of Project The XVIII Dynasty of ancient Egypt is likely the most familiar period of Egyptian history for people today. This is due to the major news event of 1923, when Howard Carter opened the sealed tomb of Tutankhamun, a teenage pharaoh who ruled from 1332 to 1323 BCE (Schultz 2010). King Tut, as he was nicknamed by the press, was laid to rest in the Valley of the Kings in a tomb full of precious objects, with rich drawings on its walls that illustrated the young king’s life.

In regards to the father and son and their commitment to Islam is that the father is entirely committed to Islam, but the son is not. This has resulted into them not being too close to each other despite being related as father and son. For example, at the beginning of the movie when his father goes to pray the son does not show any sign of interest or concern. At the beginning of their pilgrimage to Mecca, the father and the son relationship is not good, and it is evident when they start their journey the son barely ...

1 Wagner starts his argument with referring to generally acknowledged dislike for Jews, noticed among people worldwide. The author defines it as “a rooted dislike of the Jewish nature” (Wagner 79). At the beginning of the article, the author claims this dislike to be almost completely irrespective of Arts, and Music as the particular art form. Nevertheless, he emphasizes the meaning of Hebrew, which influences Jews’ speech in the most direct way, and its effect in Music. Wagner believes that the ancient language, spoken by the representatives of this ethnicity, is one of the main reasons why Jews are ...

Introduction

Before the formation of states, the areas were always divided into realms. These were mainly vast lands that would always be formed primarily through the acts of acquisition. In the process of acquiring these new pieces of lands under their control, the emperors would always require that the inhabitants of these areas would always have to conform to their rules and ways of life. These may include issues such as religion, culture and even economic activities. The rise of Islamic empires throughout the world played a significant role when it came to matters of the spread of Islam throughout ...

Introduction

Nowadays, unfortunately, terrorism has become an issue number on the universal agenda, since its outcomes affect the global security and undermine human rights values. After the 9/11 Susan Rice, assistant secretary of state for Africa in Clinton administration, described Africa as world’s “underbelly for global terrorism”, meaning numerous physical, legal and financial safe havens (ungoverned spaces) in Africa as space for those, who are interested in training, mobilizing and operating terrorists (Solomon n.p.). Therefore, as African terrorism is to threaten the security of the whole continent as well as to erode the peace of the whole world, it ...

Since the dawn of human civilization annihilation of millions of people has been occurring. After the two World Wars, this annihilation took place through many civil wars fought within the nations all over the world. The Genocide or the mass killing of a particular ethnic group has been a common phenomenon in civil wars. In 1990s, the Kashmiri Hindus were expelled by Muslim terrorists through severe massacre. The question is whether mass massacre is the answer to any problem. There is a universal agreement that genocide is immoral and unethical (Jones, 1999). Still even after the horrified consequences of ...

1. How do you characterize the relationship between the father and his son from the perspective of commitment or-non-commitment to Islam? How does this relationship change during the pilgrimage? Reda and his father have nothing in common because he is liberal while his father is rigid and very committed to Islam. Reda and his father clash a couple of times because of their differences in commitment to Islam. Reda is more of a secular person and shows no commitment to Islam. His father, on the other hand, is very religious and committed to the Islamic way of life. First ...

Age has been considered the biggest achievement one has to attain a lot of respect in the society.

Nowadays, it is extremely hard to imagine the world where there is no war, no blood and no struggle for power and influence. We get upset when we turn on the TV. However, it is important to remember that people were at war with each other from the very beginning of civilizations. People were militant because they wanted to conquer new lands and prove their strength to their neighbors. Many wars, including the legendary Trojan War, were fought for women. The entire nations were brought up prepared to go to war with other empires, including Spartans, Persians and Romans, ...

The terror threat has existed for many decades in many nations. One of the primary cause of past, present, and future of terror threats is the political interest with the aim of violating democratic values of people in a country and violate the right and freedoms of people in a country. The causes have been the same over the years. However, a current cause of terror threats is the attempt of the counter terror attack by other groups thus leading to terrorist activities. However, in future, causes would be the conflict of interest among groups claiming other nations discriminate ...

Digital image analysis is a method of extraction of useful information from digital images by using various digital image processing techniques. A digital image is a two-dimensional matrix that consists of great number of smallest addressable elements – pixels. Each pixel has its own digital characteristics, such as address and color representation. Digital image characteristics have two main measures: spatial resolution that is focused on capturing details and tonal resolution that is used to measure color, dynamic range and bit-depth. Higher tonal, spatial, and color values mean larger sizes of digital image file. (Peterson, 2005, pp. 1-2) The appropriate method ...

Insurance for Arab women migrants v their counterparts in their homelands

In the United States, Arab migrant women are part of an immigrant population from the Middle Eastern and North African (MENA) regions.

This group majorly comprises of current U.S citizens of Arab origin (Amer & Awad, 2015). However, non-citizen Arab women migrants fall under the 21 percent uninsured residents.

In my everyday life we often face to face with the real problem with hypocrisy. By this reason scientists started to study this phenomenon. Among different articles about hypocrisy I have found an interesting correlational survey, which was done by group of scientists. They asked people to judge speaker`s degree of hypocrisy in case when they admit contradiction between their words and deeds. For example: “In my opinion it’s wrong idea to waste water, but I sometimes can do it.” It has been discovered that people think this case is not demonstration of hypocrisy. I suppose that ...

Introduction

The word culture has been commonly used in the current society. However, it is worth noting its true definition. Biagetti & Lugli (2014) asserts that if one made an inquiry of its meaning from anthropologists whose sole responsibility is studying culture, then it is common knowledge that he would receive a variety of answers from them. Despite the different definitions, most of them put emphasis on same aspects. For this discussion, therefore, the definition of culture will be given. Also, the article will provide its five primary characteristics, and the overview of the physical geography, military conflict and its impact ...

In the research, the broader question that will be the foundation of the study is “Why did the U.S. invade Iraq in 2003?” However, the narrower question that was derived from the broad topic concerns the role of geopolitics in the Iraq invasion. For this reason, the question that the research topic will seek to answer regards geopolitics in the U.S. and how this political concept contributed to the attack. The research question will first define geopolitics. Collin described geopolitics as the concepts of space, scale, network, territory, region, and place that influence international politics (17).

AUSTRALIA AND SOUTH KOREA

Comparison of the Religion’s Significance in Australia and South Korea Religion is undeniably one of the most important parts of the humanity. It has always been there, first as a form of fear before the unknown and misunderstood forces of nature, and then as a form of moral guidance and help. People have been showing a necessity to believe in something above them for a very long time, and even though the times have changed, this necessity still remains intact in many. However, religions do differ greatly depending on many factors: nationality, geography, climate, historical evolution, political situation ...
