  • |The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48908-9 — The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Chelsi Mueller Frontmatter More Information |The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict The interwar period marked a transition from a Gulf society characterized by symbiosis and interdependency to a subregion characterized by national divisions, sectarian suspicions, rivalries, and political tension. In this study, Chelsi Mueller tells the story of a formative period in the Gulf, examining the triangular relationship between Iran, Britain, and the Gulf Arab shaykhdoms. By doing so, Mueller reveals how the revival of Iranian national ambitions in the Gulf had a significant effect on the dense web of Arab-Iranian relations during the interwar period. Shedding new light on our current understanding of the present-day Arab-Iranian conflict, this study, which pays particular attention to Bahrain and the Trucial States (United Arab Emirates), fills a significant gap in the literature on the history of Arab-Iranian relations in the Gulf and Iran’s Persian Gulf policy during the Reza Shah period. chelsi mueller is a research fellow at the Moshe Dayan Center for Middle Eastern and African Studies at Tel Aviv University. © in this web service Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-48908-9 — The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Chelsi Mueller Frontmatter More Information The Origins of the Arab-Iranian Conflict Nationalism and Sovereignty in the Gulf between the World Wars chelsi mueller Tel Aviv University © in this web

  • Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions
    Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions Ideals and Significance of the Paralympics: Observations from Temporal and Spatial Dimensions Kazuo OGOURA Introduction As the Paralympics becomes more widely recognized and the public’s knowledge and interest grows, Paralympic competitions are, in part, starting to be commercialized and made into a form of entertainment. The current situation calls for a re-evaluation of what has been considered as the essential significance and effect of the Paralympic Games and the Paralympic Movement on society. In other words, there is an increasing need to look back on the history of the Paralympics to examine its original significance and ideals and, at the same time, to re-evaluate or re-examine the significance and ideals of the Paralympics through comparisons with similar international games and movements. From this perspective, this article will attempt to revisit the original ideals of the Paralympics and to look back on the history of the Paralympics. It will also discuss the significance and ideals of the Paralympics from social and international perspectives, in particular through comparisons with other international disability sports competitions: the Deaflympics, Special Olympics, the VIRTUS(previously INAS) Global Games for persons with intellectual disability, and the Invictus Games. The observation and analysis will focus on Paralympic ideals through the following eight dimensions:(1) as symbolized by the Paralympic symbol;(2) the slogans of the Paralympic Games;(3) the words of Sir Ludwig Guttmann;(4) the speeches at the opening and closing ceremonies; (5) the stage performances at the opening and closing ceremonies, medals, and songs;(6) the achievements of the recipients of the Whang Youn Dai Achievement Award; (7) comparison with major international disability sports competitions; and(8) comparison with the ideals of Japan’s National Sports Festival for People with Disabilities.

  • The Anglo-Omani Action Over the Slave Trade: 1873-1903
    The Anglo-Omani Action over the Slave Trade: 1873-1903 Yusuf Abdallah Al ghailani College of arts Hist. Dept. Sultan qaboos University The Treaty of 1873 with the Sultan of Muscat i. Sir Bartle Frere’s Mission to Muscat The most notable feature in the Anglo-Omani relationship during the year 1873 was the question of the slave trade with Muscat and Zanzibar, the subject of the mission of Sir Bartle Frere. Sir Bartle was appointed by Her Majesty's Government, as special emissary to Sultan Turki for the purpose of negotiating a more effective Treaty for the suppression of the trade in his dominions. He was accompanied in that mission by Colonel Lewis Pelly, and arrived in Muscat from Zanzibar on board H.M.S. Enchantress on l2th of April 1873; the two were received with warm welcome by the Sultan himself who immediately presented all necessity for the success of this undertaking. The British representatives wasted no time in entering into negotiations with the Sultan, who promptly concluded his views in agreement with the British envoy, by the signing this Treaty on 14th April 1873, only two days after their arrival.1 The Treaty no doubt showed the Sultan's desire to achieve more effective action than previous engagements entered into with the British had achieved, either his own or his predecessors', for continuing the obstruction to the traffic which would gradually lead to complete abolition of the trade in future. This agreement with the United Kingdom Government obliged both parties and their heirs or successors to respect its provisions.
