  • Egyptian Soccer in the El-Sisi Era: a Political Double-Edged Sword
    Egyptian Soccer in the el-Sisi era: A Political Double-Edged Sword Ofir Winter and Ezzat Hamed The Egyptian soccer team qualified for the World Cup in 2018 for the first time since 1990, and for the third time in its history. The man who led Egypt to this prestigious position is the talented forward Mohamed Salah, a 26 year-old player for the Liverpool team in England. The team’s participation in the tournament in Russia, as well as Salah’s personal achievements, has aroused huge waves of social and political interest far beyond the boundaries of sport. The reaction of the Egyptian regime was ambivalent: on the one hand, the enormous support for the national team and Salah was used by President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi as a lever to boost his internal position, and was exploited by his regime to launch an international campaign marketing Egypt as a destination for tourism and investment; on the other hand, the massive crowds assembling in public spaces, the launch of Salah as a hero of popular culture, and finally, the professional and management failure of the team in Russia have all presented the regime with challenges. Historical Background: Soccer and Politics in Egypt Soccer is considered the most popular sport in modern Egypt, but its political role has fluctuated under different leaders and in various periods. While Presidents Gamal Abdel Nasser and Anwar el-Sadat did not generally frequent soccer stadiums, President Husni Mubarak managed to leverage the game’s popularity in order to seem closer to the masses and deflect their attention away from their daily troubles.

  • Event Detection Using Wikipedia
    Event Detection using Wikipedia Eirik Emanuelsen Martin Rudi Holaker Master of Science in Computer Science Submission date: June 2013 Supervisor: Kjetil Nørvåg, IDI Norwegian University of Science and Technology Department of Computer and Information Science Task Description Analysing huge text based corpora has been a popular field for research, and recently Wikipedia has become a popular corpus to study. This project aims to make a scalable system with web interface for exploring the Wikipedia page view statistics combined with page edit statistics and try to detect popularity spikes. The system can be extended with other features, for example exploring relations and grouping of entities. I II Preface This is the final thesis of our Master’s degree from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Computer and Information Science. It has been prepared over a period of 20 weeks during the spring of 2013. This thesis is within the field of Data and Information Management, and presents a system ca- pable of performing event detection on Wikipedia. We are very grateful to our two academic supervisors; Professor Kjetil Nørvåg (NTNU) and Associate Professor Krisztian Balog (University in Stavanger). During the development of the thesis you have provided guidance that has been invaluable for the final result. Thank you very much for your support, advisory and involvement in the process. Martin Rudi Holaker and Eirik Emanuelsen Trondheim, June 2013 III IV Abstract The amount of information on the web is ever growing, and analysing and making sense of this is difficult without specialised tools. The concept of Big Data is the field of processing and storing these enormous quantities of data.

  • From the Heart of the Syrian Crisis
    From the Heart of the Syrian Crisis A Report on Islamic Discourse Between a Culture of War and the Establishment of a Culture of Peace Research Coordinator Sheikh Muhammad Abu Zeid From the Heart of the Syrian Crisis A Report on Islamic Discourse Between a Culture of War and the Establishment of a Culture of Peace Research Coordinator Sheikh Muhammad Abu Zeid Adyan Foundation March 2015 Note: This report presents the conclusion of a preliminary study aimed at shedding light on the role of Sunni Muslim religious discourse in the Syrian crisis and understanding how to assess this discourse and turn it into a tool to end violence and build peace. As such, the ideas in the report are presented as they were expressed by their holders without modification. The report, therefore, does not represent any official intellectual, religious or political position, nor does it represent the position of the Adyan foundation or its partners towards the subject or the Syrian crisis. The following report is simply designed to be a tool for those seeking to understand the relationship between Islamic religious discourse and violence and is meant to contribute to the building of peace and stability in Syria. It is, therefore, a cognitive resource aimed at promoting the possibilities of peace within the framework of Adyan Foundation’s “Syria Solidarity Project” created to “Build Resilience and Reconciliation through Peace Education”. The original text of the report is in Arabic. © All rights reserved for Adyan Foundation - 2015 Beirut, Lebanon Tel: 961 1 393211
