  • Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar
    Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam in Qatar Rehenuma Asmi Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctorate of Philosophy under the executive committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Rehenuma Asmi All rights reserved ABSTRACT Language in the Mirror: Language Ideologies, Schooling and Islam Rehenuma Asmi My study explores language ideologies in the capital city of Doha, Qatar, where school reform movements are placing greater emphasis on English language acquisition. Through ethnography and a revised theory of language ideologies, I argue that as languages come in greater contact in multi-lingual spaces, mediation must occur between the new and old relationships that are emerging as a result of population growth, policy changes and cross-cultural interactions. I interrogate the development concept of the “knowledge economy” as it is used to justify old and new language ideologies regarding Arabic and English. As Qataris change their education systems in response to the economic development framework of the “knowledge economy,” they are promoting language ideologies that designate English as useful for the economy and “global” citizenship and Qatari Arabic and Standard Arabic as useful for religious and cultural reasons. I argue that Standard English, through its association with the “knowledge economy,” becomes “de-localized” and branded an “international” language. This ideology presents English as a modern language free of the society in which it is embedded, to circulate around the globe. In contrast, Standard Arabic is represented as stiff, archaic language of religious traditions and Qatari Arabic is presented as the language of oral culture and ethnonationalism.

    Digital Digest Special: Social Media in the MENA - 2012 Review Issue 6: January 2013 Contact us: [email protected] Twitter: @ictqatar 1. Social Media Summary Source: http://bit.ly/114rpD6 2. Putting MENA usage in a global context • A 21-nation survey conducted by the Pew Research Center’s Global Attitudes Project demonstrated the popularity of social networks across the globe and the increasingly important role of smartphones in accessing them. • The research also demonstrated often unique – or pronounced cultural sensibilities reflected on social networks. ‘Users of social networking in Tunisia (63%), Egypt (63%) and Jordan (62%) are also more likely than those in other countries to say they have posted on religion. In fact, in no other nation surveyed has a majority of users of these sites shared views about religion. In 14 countries, only about a third or less have posted on this topic.’ Source: http://www.pewglobal.org/2012/12/12/social-networking-popular-across-globe/ 3. Sharing view on politics and community issues also more prevalent in MENA Sports, is a less common topic, with half or more of users of social networking sites in only seven countries – India, Jordan, Tunisia, Turkey, Egypt, Brazil and China – saying they have shared their opinions about it. Source: http://www.pewglobal.org/2012/12/12/social-networking-popular-across-globe/ 4.

    Digital Arabic Content: an industry brief Wamda Research Lab March, 2015 THE CONTEXT Experts, practitioners and consumers agree that the growth in Internet penetration and online access in recent years has not translated into equal growth of Digital Arabic Content (DAC). Internet penetrations increase from 2012-2017 Internet Access 2012 Internet Access 2017 32% By 2017 over half of the Arab world will have access to the Internet, an increase from the 32% that were online in 2012.1 Estimates suggest that the region has been home to the world’s largest increase in Internet usage since 2001, experiencing 600% growth in the number of users over this time period.2 In fact the number of Arab Internet users grew by 5,296.6% from 2000-2013. Currently, the percentage of Arab speakers on the Internet is 36.9% with the Arabic language ranking fourth in the top 10 most-used languages online in 2013.3 In parallel, social media usage in the region has increased substantially. There are an estimated 17 million tweets in Arabic everyday and Arabic was the fastest growing language on Twitter between 2010-2011.4 Facebook penetration in the region is also notable as the Arabic interface now accounts for at least 39% of all MENA users.5 17 Million Tweets Arabic Facebook interface accounts 17 Million Arabic Tweets everyday for 39% of all users 1.
