One of the cornerstones of this development has been a heavy investment in education, and one that has garnered much attention in the media and in the literature on higher education. This dissertation seeks to understand the transformation of higher education in Qatar through the lens of globalization theories and to juxtapose that against nationalization policies in place in Qatar. In order to achieve this, I conducted interviews with senior-level administrators at Qatar University and Education City. Furthermore, I triangulated my data through personal observations in Qatar and an analysis of extant texts. The results from this study showed that the transformation of higher education in Qatar is being done in a way that replicates Western models and standards, with only slight attempts at infusing Qatari subject matter into curricula or Qatari values into student services. Overarching issues at Qatar University included attracting high quality Qatari students, engaging these students (and especially male students) in activities, social resistance to institutional change, and the presence of Education City as a competitor within Qatar. At Education City, establishing an institutional brand, engaging in reciprocal relationships (with the home campus, with Qatar University, and with Qatar as a whole), and enrolling and engaging quality Qatari students emerged as the issues. The dissertation concludes with recommendations for Qatari policy makers on how to effectively direct future changes in their tertiary education sector. iii Table of Contents List of Tables

  • Talking Back in the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Rational Dialogue Or Emotional Shouting Match?1
    conflict & communication online, Vol. 10, No. 2, 2011 www.cco.regener-online.de ISSN 1618-0747 Elie Friedman Talking back in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: Rational dialogue or emotional shouting match?1 Kurzfassung: Das Internet erleichtert eine breite globale Konversation unter Bürgern und ermöglicht einen interkulturellen Dialog über eine Vielzahl von gesellschaftlich relevanten Fragen. Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht die Beschaffenheit von „Talkback“-Diskursen auf Nachrichten-Web-Seiten im Rahmen des palästinensisch-israelischen Konflikts. Die Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen, dass viele der Antwort- schreiber sich einer kritisch-rationalen Diskussion über grundlegende Fragen des Konflikts verpflichten, jedoch oft auch rationale Argu- mente vorbringen, um entgegenstehende Meinungen zu delegitimieren. Der „Talkback“-Dialog ist durch eine engagierte Diskussion gekennzeichnet, wobei jedoch die Mehrheit der Antwortschreiber eher in Dialog mit dem jeweiligen Artikel treten als einen Dialog mit den anderen Antwortschreibern zu führen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der „Talkback“-Diskurs eine lebhafte, vielseitige und umfassende Form eines öffentlichen Raumes konstituiert, der den Austausch heterogener Meinungen ermöglicht, jedoch die Selbstdarstellung gegenüber der Auseinandersetzung mit den anderen bevorzugt. Abstract: The Internet has facilitated a broad global conversation among citizens, enabling cross-cultural dialogue on a range of issues, in particular through Web 2.0 tools. This study analyzes the nature of the talkback discourse on news web sites within the framework of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. The study's findings demonstrated that several talkback writers engage in rational-critical discussion of is- sues essential to the conflict, although they often use rational arguments to de-legitimize conflicting opinions. Talkback dialogue is char- acterized by engaged discussion, though the majority of respondents engage in dialogue with the article, rather than with other talkback writers.

  • Grades One Through Six Had an Enjoyable Trip to the North of the Country, and It Was Educational As Well. They
    Trip 1-6- All grades one through six had an enjoyable trip to the north of the country, and it was educational as well. They learned about the olive press and the old tools and methods of farming and irrigation. They also experienced the traditional transportation means of the carte and mule Art Exhibition At Al Hoash Art Gallery grades 4, 5 and 6 lived the memoirs of the Palestinian artist Mustafa Hallaj. Hallaj who had lost his homeland like most of the Palestinians in 1948, lived after the Nakba between Syria and Lebanon. His art work, done through carving on wood and then printed on paper and cloth depicted his love and longing to his homeland. After having an enjoyable time at the exhibition and listening to the life story of the artist, the gallery asked the children to fill out a questionnaire to assess how much they actually benefited from the visit. Fundraising dinner – To help meet the financial crisis, a Fundraising Dinner was held at the Terra Sancta Centre in Beit Hanina, a suburb north of Jerusalem on the 8th of November 2012. The response of the local community was beautiful and very encouraging to start planning for another one next year. The General assembly and board of Rawdat El-Zuhur worked with a lovely spirit as a team to make the evening enjoyable and successful. Mrs Rania Elias Khoury, the MC for the evening, led the guests through the historical journey of Rawdat El-Zuhur by means of photos and caption, followed by a quiz show.

Les médias nous dépeignent souvent une société majoritairement islamique fondamentaliste. Cette image, qui pourrait relever d’une représentation tardive du Moyen Orient par l’Occident est empreinte de problématiques d’ordre économique et soci étal. Une analyse précise permet de mettre au jour des singularités nationales et intranationales. Les développements artistiques profitent de ces sources multiples. Pour inclure les artistes du Moyen Orient dans l’histoire de l’art du monde , et comprendre les œuvres d’art contemporain, nous nous sommes servis de plusieurs approches. O utre l’analyse esthétique et la recherche d’influences formelles, il s’agit de comprendre les positions politiques de l'artiste, sa psychologie, son rôle dans la société, mais aussi la place de la religion dans la vie publique, la valeur attribuée à l’art contemporain et sa réception dans la société.

  • Israeli Apartheid Week
    Israeli Apartheid Week: A Year-by-Year Report INTRODUCTION Since its inception in 2005, Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) has become one of the most well-known and virulent anti-Israel programs. In dozens of cities around the world each year, anti-Israel activists plan a weeklong series of events, usually in March, that are marked by allegations that Israel has become an "apartheid state" and that the Israeli government oppresses Palestinians in a manner akin to the repression of the Black majority in apartheid South Africa. Speakers at these events contend that Israeli policy regarding Palestinians and Arab citizens of Israel are predicated on racism and discrimination rather than legitimate security concerns. In recent years, IAW programs have served as a platform for strategizing about Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) campaigns against Israel because of the success of BDS efforts in dismantling the apartheid system in South Africa. Anti-Israel activists often call for various boycotts on Israel, including on Israeli academic and cultural institutions or on companies that do business with Israel, as part of the "action plan" to carry out following IAW. There have also been several instances where more extreme messages, including expressions of anti-Semitism and support for terrorist groups that target Israeli civilians, including Hamas and Hezbollah, have been propagated during IAW programs. Below is a report of the anti-Israel events and programs that have taken place during IAW in reverse chronological order. IAW 2012 The eighth annual Israeli Apartheid Week (IAW) took place in cities around the United States and on approximately two dozen college campuses in 2012.

    A manuscript page from Yalo (2002). “I had no model. I wrote like a blind man.” The Art of Fiction No. 233 ELIAS KHOURY lias Khoury is the foremost novelist writ- ing in Arabic today. Born in Beirut in the fateful year of 1948, he published his sec- Eond novel, Little Mountain (1977), during the open- ing phase of the long Lebanese civil war, in which he fought with pro-Palestinian forces against his Christian coreligionists of the Phalange. Khoury’s early work is fearlessly contemporary, addressing itself to Lebanon’s conflict even as events were unfolding. In novels such as White Masks (1981) and The Journey of Little Gandhi (1989), Khoury held up the broken mirror of his fiction to a country on the verge of falling apart. Khoury’s best-known novel is Gate of the Sun (1998), which the New York Times labeled “a genu- ine masterwork.” It is the fruit of Khoury’s many years spent in the Palestinian camps of Lebanon, where he listened to refugees’ stories about the fall of Galilean villages during the 1948 Nakba. 21 The novel is an epic patchwork of such tales, “worth reading twice,” wrote Claudia Roth Pierpont in The New Yorker, “because it is so hard to see whole the first time, and because it is so insidiously rich.” At its heart, the novel is the story of a Palestinian couple separated by the 1948 Arab-Israeli War: the guerrilla Yunes and his wife, Nahilah, who secretly meet and make love in a cave—called “gate of the sun”—in a Galilean village near the Lebanese border.

    Access & Closure Bearing Witness in Occupied Palestine by Toby Millman Bachelor of Arts, Hampshire College, 1997 Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements of the Degree of Master of Fine Arts School of Art and Design University of Michigan Ann Arbor, Michigan April 25, 2007 Approved by: ________________________________________________________ Tirtza Even, Graduate Committee Chair ________________________________________________________ Rebekah Modrak, Graduate Committee Member ________________________________________________________ Anton Shammas, Graduate Committee Member ________________________________________________________ Catherine Benamou, Graduate Committee Member ________________________________________________________ Brad Smith, Associate Dean for Graduate Education ________________________________________________________ Bryan Rogers, Dean, School of Art and Design Date Degree Conferred: May 2007 2 Abstract This thesis stems from a visit to East Jerusalem and the West Bank in occupied Palestine, though it is further rooted in a longstanding concern for the general region. It weaves together various media and methods in an attempt to understand the place, the politics, and the people in between. My work is not a historical account. It is not unmediated testimony. It is as much about myself as it is about a place. My own perceptions, experiences, and vision permeate the work. Combining photography, cutout drawings, maps, and textual narrative, I chronicle my encounters in Palestine in bits and pieces. According to the CIA World Fact book, the West Bank consists of 5,860 square kilometers of territory (slightly smaller than the State of Delaware). From 97 to 948, the West Bank, along with the Old City and the Eastern neighborhood of Jerusalem, was under British control as part of the Mandate of Palestine. After the Arab-Israeli War of 948, also known as the Palestinian Nakba or Israel’s War of Independence, these areas were taken under Jordanian control.

  • Hydrofictions: Water, Power and Politics in Israeli and Palestinian Literature Hannah Boast
    Hydrofictions: Water, Power and Politics in Israeli and Palestinian Literature Hannah Boast PhD University of York English and Related Literature October 2015 Abstract This thesis examines the representation of water in Israeli and Palestinian literature, from the early years of Zionist settlement at the start of the twentieth century, to the daily violence of today’s ongoing occupation. It takes an interdisciplinary approach, drawing on disciplines including cultural geography, science and technology studies, and, inevitably, politics. At the same time, it situates these explorations in the context of the increasingly fevered contemporary debates on ‘water wars’, global water crisis, and the Anthropocene. In doing so, it demonstrates the many ways in which water intersects with Israeli and Palestinian cultures, at the same time as indicating the potential for literary approaches to deepen and critique existing political, scientific and corporate discourse on the future of the world’s water. Literary critics have so far had little to say about water. Land has always seemed more politically important and cultural meaningful. The significance of land appears dramatically amplified in the context of Israel/Palestine, where issues of land, borders and sovereignty remain painful and unresolved. This neglect of water exists in spite of a growing trend towards reading literature for its representations of resources, most prominently in the subject of ‘petrofiction’. No resource, however, is more fundamental than water. In bringing water to the forefront, this thesis has significant implications for future research in Israeli and Palestinian literary studies, postcolonial ecocriticism, and the environmental humanities. It demonstrates the potential for a focus on water to open up an array of new texts for exploration, and for literary research to productively complicate and enrich our understanding of, as well as our relationship with, the ubiquitous, and far more than merely ‘natural’ substance of water.
