  • Allah, Allah, Allah: the Role of God in the Arab Version of the Voice
    religions Article Allah, Allah, Allah: The Role of God in the Arab Version of The Voice Jan Jaap De Ruiter 1 and Mona Farrag Attwa 1,2,* 1 Tilburg University, 5037 AB Tilburg, The Netherlands; [email protected] 2 Department of Asian Languages and Civilizations, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: This article discusses Arabic expressions referring to God, such as inshallah, mashallah, and alhamdulillah in the 2014 season of the Arab version of the talent show The Voice. It discusses the question to what extent these expressions are used by the various actors in the show, in particular its four jury members and three presenters, and it tries to explain why they use them and to what purpose. The analysis is set against the background of the question what the relationship is between ‘language’ (in this case, the various varieties of Arabic) and ‘religion’ (in this case, Christianity and Islam). The analysis yielded nearly 40 Arabic expressions referring to God (Allah or Rabb (Lord)) that together showed up more than 600 times in the 10 episodes of the show that were the object of analysis. The conclusion is that the expressions indeed have ‘religious’ roots but that they have at the same time become part and parcel of not necessarily religiously intended speaking styles expressing all kind of feelings, such as astonishment, surprise, disappointment, etc. This conclusion goes well with observations made in earlier research on the questions at stake. Keywords: expressions referring to God; varieties of Arabic; Arabic talent shows; language and religion Citation: De Ruiter, Jan Jaap, and Mona Farrag Attwa.

  • Bilaterální Vztahy České Republiky
    BILATERÁLNÍ VZTAHY ČESKÉ REPUBLIKY Poznámka k tabulkám o vzájemných ekonomických vztazích v následujícím textu: Tabulka zachycuje (tam, kde je uvedena) vývoj vybraných ukazatelů vzájemného obchodu v l. 2005 – 2007. (Ve snaze o redukci objemu textu zabývajícího se bilaterálními vztahy ČR jsou, oproti minulým ročníkům Zprávy, tabulky s údaji o vzájemných ekonomických vztazích uvedeny pouze v případě 30 nejvýznamnějších obchodních partnerů ČR.) Údaj „Podíl na celkových ukazatelích roku 2007 (%)“ je vztažen k souhrnným hodnotám zahraničního obchodu ČR v roce 2007. Údaje o zahraničních investicích zahrnují tři složky – základní jmění, reinvestovaný zisk a ostatní kapitál (charakterizovaný především úvěrovými vztahy). Pokud se u položky objeví znak „minus“, znamená to: 1. u přímých zahraničních investic do ČR pokles hodnoty investic dané země v ČR (např. zisk nebyl reinvestován v ČR, zahraniční podniky splácely dříve čerpané úvěry do zahraničí); 2. u českých investic do zahraničí pokles hodnoty českých přímých investic v dané zemi (např. odprodejem základního jmění, vygenerováním hospodářské ztráty nebo poskytnutím úvěru mimo hranice hostitelské země). Souhrnné údaje o zahraničním obchodu ČR s dalšími zeměmi a celními územími neuvedenými v textu kapitoly II. Bilaterální vztahy ČR obsahuje tabulka „Zahraniční obchod České republiky v letech 2005 – 2007“ v oddílu PŘÍLOHY této publikace. 1. Vztahy ČR se zeměmi střední Evropy MAĎARSKO (Maďarská republika) Vztahy mezi Českou republikou a Maďarskem mají dlouhodobě vysokou úroveň a odpovídají vztahům sousedních zemí. S cílem dalšího prohloubení spolupráce na bilaterální úrovni došlo v roce 2006 k podpisu Memoranda o porozumění mezi Ministerstvem zahraničních věcí České republiky a Ministerstvem zahraničních věcí Maďarské republiky, k jehož naplňování docházelo i v roce 2007. Novou oblastí spolupráce mezi ministerstvy zahraničních věcí je od roku 2007 společná účast na projektech podporujících demokratizaci a dodržování lidských práv ve třetích zemích.

Professor Louise Edwards with her infectious enthusiasm first got me on track to begin a PhD and saw it all the way to completion. Along the road, she provided valuable feedback on drafts and encouraged me to partake in a variety of activities that benefited not just the project but my understanding of broader issues surrounding it. When Louise moved to Hong Kong, I was exceptionally fortunate to have on board the equally expert and energetic professor, Wanning Sun, who had just arrived at UTS. Wanning‘s expertise in Chinese media and identity was vital in helping me form the theoretical and analytical framework that became the backbone of this work.
