Our findings suggest that quality both countries contains autonomous-artistic alongside heteronomous-capitalist ideological elements, apparently under influence quality. also elements contribute to cultural legitimation series though capitalist plays more evident role among than critics.

Revolutionary movements, like Salafi-jihadis, often capture public attention. However, as scholars of Salafism have long argued, quietist Salafis are the largest sub-group within, and in many ways true heart of, southern Mediterranean beyond. This article has two aims. First, it provides scholarship on Salafi groups Libya Algeria not tied to jihadi milieus. Second, contributes new understandings developments less-studied countries, namely Libya. Via a comparative study one prominent type Salafism, known Madkhalism, post-2011 contexts political transition civil war (Libya) limited liberalization (Algeria), we show that whilst some Libyan Madkhalis partially constrained their rejection taking up arms or alliances with ideological competitors, Algerian counterparts did not. We build existing by explaining this divergence at level discrete opportunity structures, both since prior events 2011, together intra-Salafi framing competition core convictions. Overall, argue Madkhalism seen bottom-up-driven shift over last years is likely continue, further reshape movement, impact countries which its acolytes embedded.

‘Reading’ through the body in early Egypt
Kathryn E. Piquette (https://openalex.org/A5059751712)

Abstract This chapter examines the earliest writing and related marking practices from Egypt (c.3300 / c.3100–c.2750 BCE), namely graphical marks on ceramic jars small labels of bone, ivory wood. In contrast to research focusing production, this material is examined here perspective consumption. Whether through ‘reading’ or other forms semantic meaning-making, author argues that such acts were never neutral, but rather situated within a web embodied multisensory processes. These are two recursively levels: firstly, micro-relations, including intersections between perception technique, size, shape, colour format signs; secondly, macro-relations text-objects practitioner particular cultural spaces. Although early evidence presents many interpretive challenges, attempts demonstrate value developing more context-sensitive reconstructions written culture as part lived experience – for which body was fundamental vehicle mediator.

In 2017, the porn film Refugee’s Welcome was released, directed by Canadian pornographer Bruce LaBruce. Using ‘Refugees Welcome’ slogan popularized in Germany following arrival of a growing number refugees, LaBruce individualizes narrative through fictional story Moonif, young gay Syrian refugee who explores his sexuality upon Berlin. Indeed, broader genre has emerged involving depiction refugees. this article, I argue that perpetuates trope queer refugees having sexual awakening migration, whereby West is positioned as liberating from alleged homophobic Global South. Not only does allow to directly focus on saviourism, but becomes imagined inherently vulnerable contrasting them hypermasculinity heterosexual Arab men. This article thus obscenity demanding becoming intelligible narratives liberation.

Abstract This article explores Namibian state formation and citizenship through the case of ex-combatant ‘reintegration’, particularly its focus on government employment provision since mid-1990s. It examines discourses that have motivated targeting ex-combatants, practical measures taken towards ex-combatants' own initiatives responses. Analytically it focuses implications ‘reintegration’ for relations between population or citizens, drawing lines inclusion exclusion, tension appears personalised bureaucratic tendencies rule.

This article explores the emergent public sphere in Egypt early 1990s by analysing debates about ‘repentant’ artists. Many artists, mostly women but also a few men, stepped down from art for religious reasons. Some of them even started to preach against because they considered their former profession haram. The ‘repentance’ so many famous performers led fierce contestations media.

This paper focuses on seemingly ‘silly’ talk, whispered by Greek-Cypriot students during Turkish-language classes. Taking into account the history of violent conflict between and Turkish-Cypriot communities, learners’ silly-talk emerges as an interactional space that refracts larger discourses ideologies, is therefore analysed in relation to historico-political institutional processes occurring different timescales. Playful youth-talk has attracted interest sociolinguistic research, providing insights how adolescents’ practices orient issues such ‘boundaries’, ‘discrimination’. Here, playful talk process learning language ‘The Other’ provides insight ways which nationalist ideologies leave little for renegotiation interethnic animosity classroom. The analysis reveals that, although students’ ‘silly-talk’ appeared sometimes seriously transgressive, still recognised power dominant ideology colluded with teacher repressing any deviating discourse.

‘Revenge of the jobniks’? Soldier representation and resistance in contemporary Israeli popular culture
Daphne Inbar (https://openalex.org/A5091102350)|Oren Barak (https://openalex.org/A5003276914)
2,020
For many decades, cultural representations of the military and service in Israel, particularly films television series, tended to focus on male Sabra (Israeli-born) soldiers their combat experiences, portraying them from either a ‘heroic-nationalist’ or ‘post-heroic’ perspective. However, several recent Israeli series bring fore men women different social backgrounds who serve as non-combatant (jobniks) far behind frontlines. Such depictions ‘anti-heroic’ expose previously underrepresented aspects military, ranging subtle expressions lack motivation open acts resistance. Based an analysis notable featuring jobnik protagonists, we argue that although these works give voice groups accord legitimacy soldiers’ resistance, they simultaneously foster more conservative discourse regarding Israel by excluding other setting limits individuals’ conduct within outside military. These findings suggest while popular culture can challenge militarist tendencies, it may ultimately reinforce military’s position ‘people’s army’ norm mandatory conscription.

Dominant self-complacent national narratives (not only) in Turkey have long silenced past wrongdoings. Among these, the massacre of thousands Kurds Dersim during 1930s, being part wider suppression Kurdish minority until present day, is a particularly significant example. However, against background an almost global emphasis on recognising crimes, Turkish Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, offered apology 23 November 2011. Erdoğan’s unexpected move has been both viewed as opportunity for more inclusive understanding citizenship, well criticised calculated manoeuvre order to sideline political opponents. In this article, we investigate performance and its public reception. Drawing discourse-historical approach critical discourse analysis, ultimately illustrate how Erdoğan instrumentalised ‘apology’ gain.

‘Shadows of Uncertainty’: Clausewitz's Timeless Analysis of Chance in War
Thomas Waldman (https://openalex.org/A5002008422)
2,010
The concept of chance has often been approached by military thinkers in either an unreasonably fatalistic or complacently dismissive manner. However, Carl von Clausewitz (1780‐1831) developed a more accurate and realistic conception. For him, war is inescapable yet ambiguous phenomenon: it can create opportunities to be exploited equally dash the best laid plans. Frequently disregarded theory, maintained that chance, uncertainty, friction are central nature war, along with human qualities required overcome them such as courage, determination, adaptability. Modern developments have not rendered these insights obsolete and, if anything, they hold even greater relevance contemporary warfare. Western militaries fighting Iraq Afghanistan continually challenged events unforeseeable setbacks. Overconfidence bred technological superiority contributed inadequately capable confronting unexpected all war’s dimensions. Understanding Clausewitz’s ideas help prepare leaders for unpredictable war.

Arguably, Muslim subjects of the diaspora, regardless if they identify as secular, religious, feminist, or queer, have taken on a new and further stigmatized visibility post‐9/11. How can students teachers located in feminist classrooms, non–Muslim alike, safely imagine bodies identities outside within war propaganda, border security measures, hijacked airplanes, racial profiling, jihad? Given relentless overbearing mainstream media propaganda promoting climate fear protection from ‘Muslims’ their attributed geographies, physiognomies, behaviors—essentially reproducing late nineteenth‐century colonialist visual anthropological practices; it is incumbent to revisit cultural activities contemporary transnational artists order conceptually ‘shake up’ off’ psychological effects US–led foreign policies, British French imperialist histories, fervent nationalisms, religious extremisms—all which continue forcibly shape undermine personal identity claims diasporic communities.

Fathers further acknowledge impact marital sexual relationships. In cases, challenge ritual refuse light change emphasises role dialogue renegotiating health‐damaging practices, along evidence diverse parents, this argues sensitively facilitated ‘community conversations’ might provide opportunities debate opposing allow for construction health‐enabling representations.

Silence, within mainstream feminist scholarship, is based on a binary understanding in relation to voice. Silence demeaned and seen as the unwanted other.
