  • My Trip to Jordan
    My Trip to Jordan Whenever family and friends comment on my wanderlust, I’m compelled to remind them I’ve only been to 22 countries in my lifetime, and while that might seem like a high number to some it only constitutes about eleven percent of the world’s total. I think what impresses people most is the frequency of my travels, having been to 18 countries in just the last seven years. My seniority at the United States Postal Service allows me five weeks of vacation leave annually, and I try to utilize as much of this time for world travel as I can. What I seldom explain to people is why I’ve chosen the countries I have visited. For the most part I’ve been narrowing my selection process to include one of two basic criteria. Global warming aside, the world is changing rapidly. There have been fundamental societal shifts in the past three decades, facilitated in no small part by new technologies that have connected the people of this planet like never before, modernizing and shrinking the world all at the same time. For this reason I’ve focused much of my recent travels on those emerging countries that are quickly transforming themselves via technology and modern industry. In other words, I want to experience these cultures before even the most rural of villages acquires WiFi. I must admit, though, it is becoming harder and harder to find such places. The other basic consideration affecting my travel plans is a bit more drastic, based on dire geopolitical developments over the past fifteen years.

  • Intellectuals in the Modern Islamic World
    INTELLECTUALS IN THE MODERN ISLAMIC WORLD This book reconsiders the typology and history of intellectuals in the Islamic world in the modern and contemporary periods from the late nineteenth century to the present day. Intellectuals in the Modern Islamic World distinguishes itself from other major studies on modern thought in Islam by examining this topic beyond the context of the Arabic world. The first section of this book concentrates on a journal, al-Manar, published between 1898 and 1935, and read by a wide range of audiences throughout the Islamic world, which inspired the imagination and arguments of local intellectuals in the first half of the twentieth century. The second part concentrates on the formation, transmission, and transformation of learning and authority, from the Middle East to Central and South Asia, through the twentieth century. Providing a rich variety of case studies, by international authors of the most varied disciplinary scope, Intellectuals in the Modern Islamic World meets the highest academic requirements in a spirit of comparative vision and openness to the dynamism of contemporary societies of the Islamic world. As such, this book is essential reading for those with research interests in Islam and intellectual thought. Stéphane A. Dudoignon is a research fellow at the National Center for Scientific Research (Paris). Komatsu Hisao is a professor at the Graduate School of Humanities and Sociology, The University of Tokyo. Kosugi Yasushi is a professor at the Graduate School of Asian and African Area Studies, Kyoto University. NEW HORIZONS IN ISLAMIC STUDIES Series editor: Professor Sato Tsugitaka The series New Horizons in Islamic Studies presents the fruitful results of Islamic Area Studies Project conducted in Japan during the years 1997–2001.

Existing Data of Groundwater Quality Regarding groundwater quality, historical data are stored in the Water Information System (WIS) of MOWI. There are totally 1148 wells and 742 springs with water quality records. The records for some of the wells and springs started as earlier as 1960, but most of them started in 1970s. As time passed, some of the sites were closed or the monitoring plans were changed. The number of wells with water quality records after 1995 becomes 653 and that of springs becomes 646. The study team reviewed all these water quality data but chose the wells and springs with records after 1995 for analysis. The water quality items in the WIS data base include water salinity (as EC), pH, main cations (Na, K, Ca, Mg) and anions (Cl, CO3, HCO3, NO3, SO4).

  • Palestinian Schooling in Jordan, 1950
    A Primer for a New Terrain: Palestinian Schooling in Jordan, 1950 MEZNA QATO This article offers a close reading of the first geography textbook printed by the Ministry of Education after the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan annexed the West Bank in 1950. Examining the Hashemite regime’s early curricular attempts to incorporate its new Palestinian citizens, refugees and otherwise, the article highlights the tactics used to achieve these ends, namely a topographic centralization of Jordan, an erasure of human geography in favor of a natural one, and the foreclosure of other forms of national attachment and belonging. The discussion seeks to expand our understanding of one of the most significant narrative materials confronted by Palestinians in the aftermath of the Nakba, seeing in it a possible mechanism by which to understand the challenges to Palestinian demands for a self-determined education. The best way to get to know a country well is to embark on several trips to places throughout, in order to see for ourselves its towns, hills, valleys, rivers, lakes, archeological sites, and natural habitats. And this is what Hassan, Nu’man, Nabil, Talal, and Ghassan, students from schools in Amman, decided to do. —Third grade Jordanian geography primer, October 1950 IN THE AFTERMATH OF THE NAKBA, the majority of Palestinians driven from their homes east of the armistice line with the newly established state of Israel entered the suddenly expanded Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan as refugees. As the displaced Palestinians’ stay grew ever more protracted, the Jordanian state and international organizations built a massive infrastructure to educate their children.
