(May 2012) Veronica Marie Morriss, B.A., The Pennsylvania State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Shelley Wachsmann In ancient Egypt, the Nile was both a lifeline and a highway. In addition to its crucial role for agriculture and water resources, the river united an area nearly five hundred miles in length. It was an avenue for asserting imperial authority over the vast expanse of the Nile valley. River transport along the inland waterways was also an integral aspect of daily life and was employed by virtually every class of society; the king and his officials had ships for commuting, as did the landowner for shipping grain, and the ‘marsh men’ who lived in the northernmost regions of the Nile Delta.

  • Social Mobility and Green Open Urban Spaces with Special Reference to Cairo
    Wanas, A and Samir, E GBER Vol 10 Issue 1 Oct 2016 Article Social Mobility and Green Open Urban Spaces With Special Reference to Cairo *Ayman Wanas, Cairo, Egypt *Enas Samir, Cairo, Egypt Abstract Many rudiments and dynamics formulate the quality of life in cities; one of them is urban green space. Green urban area plays a vital role in improving the quality of life in cities, on the environmental level and social level as well. This paper examines the interrelationship between socio-economic mobility and the form, the use and the quality of green space with a particular reference to Cairo, Egypt. It also seeks to determine the critical factors in making those spaces up to user's expectations. The paper debates the notion of green urban spaces, development through time and the type of users in association with the socio- economic and political dimensions through a comprehensive literature review. It critically observes and documents the changes and the transformations in the green urban open space in Cairo, which, happens in consequent with socio-economic changes and political drifts taking Zamalek district, Cairo as a field study area. The paper reaches its results using correlation analyses, which approves the interrelationship between socio- economic mobility and physical changes and transformations in urban green spaces.

  • Passage Through Egypt
    PASSAGE THROUGH EGYPT ABOARD OBEROI PHILAE | 2018/2019 Ralph Hammelbacher knows Egypt like the back of his hand, having been responsible for our program from its inception in 1992. When I heard he planned to retire after 43 years in travel, I convinced him to remain—to curate our new Egypt program. I am delighted on both counts: he remained for the project, and has created an extraordinary program. I hope you will agree, and join us to explore Egypt. DEAR TRAVELER, I’ve had a decades-long love affair with Egypt. My first visit to Egypt was in 1978, and I was immediately captivated. I felt as if I had finally come home. I returned four years later, taking a barge from the Sudanese border across Lake Nasser to Aswan, and then a local sailboat (called a felucca) to Luxor. Over the years, I’ve been back dozens of times—sometimes for longer stays, renting a bicycle daily to explore Luxor’s west bank, and sometimes just for a few days to work with our local counterparts on Lindblad Expeditions’ programs. When I returned most recently, in December 2017, I was frankly expecting people to be downcast, given all the difficulties they’ve had. I couldn’t have been more mistaken. Instead, there’s a pervasive optimism as visitors come back to Egypt, which is also reflected in the considerable investment in hotels, ships, and other areas. I wanted that to be part of our program, and I think that if you join us you’ll be stunned by the beauty and graciousness of our Nile ship, the Oberoi Philae, and our hotels, the Nile Ritz-Carlton and the Mena House.

In Jordan, like other countries of the world, the media relies heavily on news agencies to obtain news, as major news agencies are relied upon to obtain international and Arab news, while the Jordanian Sons Agency "Petra" is relied upon to obtain local news. The Jordanian News Agency dominates the Jordanian newspapers that publish the news issued by this agency, which is considered the official and only official agency in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. This agency focuses on publishing official news, especially news issued by the royal court, the presidency of the government and other official institutions, as there is almost a monopoly on these news.
