Balfour Declaration in 1917 and the British Mandate of 1920, had raised the tension between Arabs and Jews. One of the most significant changes was the establishment of the Jewish State of Israel. “On 29 November 1947, thousands of people jumped out of their beds and rushed out onto the streets when the reports were broadcasted on the radio.” It was the day the UN proposed the partition of Palestine, between Arabs and Jews. On 14 May 1948, the British high commissioner for Palestine left with…

Later, in college, when she is ready to expose her Arab background, she invites her friends and cooks Arabic food to introduce them to her Arabic side. Moreover, Abinader refers to the different term that Americans use to denominate the typical Arabic bread. ―[…] as it cools, the bread flattens to what…

Arab Spring: riots, bloodshed, chaos. If you follow current events you’ll know that all over the middle east and northern Africa there is devastating turmoil. But, Northern Africa is far away from here, it has nothing to do with us right? Unfortunately this is not true. The initial cause of the revolts was food prices. The people were enraged in the sudden spike in the prices of food, and this is not an isolated incident. For instance, Syria experienced a destructive drought, and that same year…

people have written papers who are considered by them as the key Arab authors in Arabic, French or English literature using their readings, skills and convictions as well as the literature review they made about the issue (Allen, 1988; Brisley, 2016). However, no one has tried to know who are recognized by all the scientific community as the main Arab writers. That is why I decided to retrieve the list of these widely recognized Arab authors for Arabic, French and English literature in this work…

The Arab-Israeli conflict originated in a fight for land that transformed into a political and religious clash. Throughout the years, Jews and Palestinians fail to peacefully coexist in a land they both believe they are entitled to reside in. The territory, which is only 10,000 square miles, encompasses a wide range of people with different cultures and religious backgrounds. The Palestinians are defined as the Arabs who are of mainly members of a Christian, Muslim, or Druze religion and whose…

create stereotypes whether we realize it or not. Before I watched the video Reel Bad Arabs, I had hardly noticed how much Hollywood affected how I viewed different ethnic and religious groups, especially Arabs and Muslims. Dr. Jack Shaheen, the film’s narrator and expert, showed snippets from multiple movies to prove that Hollywood has vilified these people. By creating the characters of the evil, lustful, violent Arab men and the either scantily dressed or completely covered and…

(2012) claims that the historical connection of the Arab monarchies give them their strength and legitimacy. He explains how the monarchy is often sustained by religious belief, and this gives them more legitimacy than any self-appointed strongmen (Abrams, 2012). The rationality paradigm does not appear as an independent category as often as the two others (structural and cultural) in explaining the divergent outcomes and trajectories of the Arab Spring. Rational choice theory is used by a…

"There is nothing permanent in life except change. - Heraclitus" Nowadays, the Arab world in the Middle East is undergoing enormous change. Those changes, known as the Arab Spring, have resulted in a new outlook in many countries, like Egypt, Syria, Tunisia, and Libya. Recently, people living in Egypt, for example, made it their life’s goal to speak up against the corruption of their government or die trying. In fact, according to an Amnesty International report, during the protests of 2012…

Presentation The Gulf social orders have been experiencing radical changes since the finish of the 1970s. The Arab Gulf family is going through a quick progress that influences its capacities, parts, specialist, and structure. One must begin with an essential speculation that surveys the Arab Gulf family as a fundamental unit that broadens its social segments from Arab Islamic sources; and as a monetary unit that plays out various financial parts to the advantage of its own individuals and of…

events as stated by elcoushistory were Saudi Arabia’s embargo on oil called the “Arab Oil Embargo” as well as The Vietnam War. Both events crippled America’s economic growth substantially, although it was still experiencing a growth rate of 2.16% of gdp growth per year from 1950-2007 as shown by C.I. Jones in his Stanford research labeled The Facts of Economic Growth (6). According to the…
