Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The handbook The Semitic Languages offers a comprehensive reference tool for Semitic Linguistics in its broad sense. It is not restricted to comparative Grammar, although it covers also comparative aspects, including classification. By comprising a chapter on typology and sections with sociolinguistic focus and language contact, the conception of the book aims at a rather complete, unbiased description of the state of the art in Semitics. Articles on individual languages and dialects give basic facts as location, numbers of speakers, scripts, numbers of extant texts and their nature, attestation where appropriate, and salient features of the grammar and lexicon of the respective variety. The handbook is the most comprehensive treatment of the Semitic language family since many decades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tant au niveau des revenus que du développement économique, les inégalités n'ont pas diminué dans le monde, en ce début du troisième millénaire ; et cela malgré les interventions des gouvernements, des ONG et des bailleurs de fonds internationaux. On commettrait également une grave erreur de diagnostic si l'on considérait la pauvreté et l'exclusion sociale comme des caractéristiques réservées aux pays en développement. Les inégalités dans la répartition du revenu et dans l'accès aux droits existent également dans les pays les plus riches. Les essais regroupés dans cet ouvrage entendent procéder à une étude aussi exhaustive que possible des rapports entre développement économique, égalité et pauvreté. Cette analyse est conduite dans le cadre de trois grands domaines thématiques. Le premier présente le cadre théorique de référence relatif aux interconnexions entre développement économique et inégalités. Le deuxième est consacré à l'étude de la pauvreté et de l'exclusion sociale dans les régions et pays en développement (Sahel, Maroc, Burkina Faso, Nigeria). Enfin, le troisième thème porte sur l'analyse des inégalités et de la pauvreté dans les pays développés, en particulier dans les zones urbaines de Rome, Naples, Munich, Dublin, aux fins d'une analyse comparative. Dans l'essai introductif Growth and Inegality. Theoretical Issues and Empirical Evidence, sont examinées les interconnections entre croissance économique et inégalités. Les auteurs procèdent ainsi à une revue critique, aussi vaste que minutieuse, de la littérature en la matière. Ils démontrent que l'examen des inégalités ne saurait être limité à la répartition du revenu mais qu'il faut également l'étendre à bien d'autres facteurs pour identifier les dimensions réelles du bien-être et des inégalités.

Book excerpt: The Arabic script in Africa contains sixteen papers on the past and present use of Arabic script to write African languages. These writing traditions, which are sometimes collectively referred to as Ajami, are discussed for single or multiple languages, with examples from all major linguistic phyla of Africa but one (Khoisan), and from all geographic areas of Africa (North, West, Central, East, and South Africa), as well as a paper on the Ajami heritage in the Americas. The papers analyze (ethno-) historical, literary, (socio-) linguistic, and in particular grammatological aspects of these previously understudied writing traditions and exemplify their range and scope, providing new data for the comparative study of writing systems, literacy in Africa, and the history of (Islam in) Africa.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Linguistics introduces readers to the major facets of research on Arabic and of the linguistic situation in the Arabic-speaking world. The edited collection includes chapters from prominent experts on various fields of Arabic linguistics. The contributors provide overviews of the state of the art in their field and specifically focus on ideas and issues. Not simply an overview of the field, this handbook explores subjects in great depth and from multiple perspectives. In addition to the traditional areas of Arabic linguistics, the handbook covers computational approaches to Arabic, Arabic in the diaspora, neurolinguistic approaches to Arabic, and Arabic as a global language. The Routledge Handbook of Arabic Linguistics is a much-needed resource for researchers on Arabic and comparative linguistics, syntax, morphology, computational linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and applied linguistics, and also for undergraduate and graduate students studying Arabic or linguistics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until about 60 years ago, linguistic research on the Arabic language in the West was restricted to inquiries on Classical Arabic and the Classical tradition, and spoken Arabic dialects, with historical studies embedded within the broader field of Semitic languages. This situation is changing quickly, not only through the continuation of older research traditions, but also with the integration of new research fields and perspectives. With this expansion comes the danger of specialists in Arabic losing an overview of the field, and of leaving non-specialists without basic resources for evaluating domains of research which they may be interested in for comparative purposes. The Oxford Handbook of Arabic Linguistics will confront this problem by combining state-of-the-art overviews with essays on issues of perspective, controversy, and point of view. In twenty-four chapters, leading experts from around the world will lay out their own stances on controversial issues. The book not only evaluates ways in which questions and theories established in general linguistics and its sub-fields elucidate Arabic, but also challenges approaches which might result in accommodating Arabic to "non-Arabic" interpretations, and brings out the Arabic specificity of individual problems. The Handbook, in one compact volume, gives critical expression to a language which covers large populations and geographical areas, has a long written tradition, and has been the locus of major intellectual fervor and debate.

Book excerpt: This volume brings together 22 contributions to the study of Arabic dialects, from the Maghreb to Iraq by authors, who are all well-known for their work in this field. It underscores the importance of different theoretical approaches to the study of dialects, developing new frameworks for the study of variation and change in the dialects, while presenting new data on dialects (e.g., of Jaffa, Southern Sinai, Nigeria, South Morocco and Mosul) and cross-dialectal comparisons (e.g., on the feminine gender and on relative clauses). This collection is presented to Manfred Woidich, one of the most eminent scholars in the field of Arabic dialectology.

Book excerpt: Tout discours visant à appréhender les intellectuels constitue un défi majoré, pour peu qu'une telle tentative se trouve conduite par les membres de ce groupe d'appartenance. Par la pluralité de ses figures, de ses trajectoires, de ses postures et de ses lieux d'actions, l'intellectuel intervient dans l'espace public, lieu de débats et condition nécessaire pour son existence et ses activités. Qu'il appartienne à l'élite ou qu'il soit qualifié de populaire, l'intellectuel est un acteur, un sujet agissant par le biais de ses productions polymorphes fondées le plus souvent sur un savoir critique. Celles-ci ont en commun de porter sur l'orientation des sociétés concernées, d'intervenir dans la vie de la Cité. Dans quelle mesure des intellectuels appartenant à différentes traditions linguistiques ou aux mêmes traditions partagent-ils des repères épistémologiques analogues ? Quelles sont les incidences de la mondialisation sur leurs productions scientifiques ? Comment se positionnent-ils dans les différents espaces d'expérimentation parfois douloureuse de la démocratie ? Etre un intellectuel dans le domaine des sciences humaines et sociales, signifie-t-il détenir, sans en avoir le monopole, un rôle prépondérant au plan éthique dans l'exigence et l'intention de vérité, dans la posture critique, la pratique du dialogue et la reconnaissance de l'autre ? S'appuyant sur des recherches empiriques effectuées en Afrique, en Europe, en Asie, le livre propose de cerner diverses figures contemporaines d'intellectuels, leur rôle aussi bien dans la jonction de leurs sociétés avec le reste du monde, que dans les constructions abouties ou non d'une sphère autonome du pouvoir politique.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Treaty establishing the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) was signed in 1975, several protocole have been adopted providing the legal and institutional framework for implementing the integration of the West African sub-region. Ail social and political stakeholders agree that regional integration is a major challenge for development in West Africa. Yet the regional integration process has been affected by many delays, even failures. Member states have pursued a seemingly contradictory dual objective: build a Nation-state within colonial Borders and achieve regional integration to fight against under-development. Can national planning priorities be reconciled with the demands and objectives of regional integration processes in West Africa ? Since 2005, under the auspices of the Management of Social Transformations (MOST) Programme initiative, the Social and Human Sciences Sector of UNESCO has organized a series of national seminars on West African regional integration in the ECOWAS region. Four seminars have so far been organized in Senegal, Mali, Benin and Ghana. This anthology publishes papers presented at Ghana's national seminar on "Nation-states and the Challenge of Regional Integration in West Africa: the Case of Ghana", held in Accra from 8 to 9 November 2005. The contributors suggest that Ghana's reluctance to relinquish its sovereignty stemmed from a lack of commitment in the first 20 years of ECOWAS' existence and preoccupation with its own security and survival against internai and externat threats. The state has currently demonstrated renewed commit-ment by establishing a Ministry of Regional Cooperation and the New Agenda for Africa's Development (NEPAD) to coordinate and manage the sub-regional integration programme. In spite of positive developments, results have been disappointing. The new ministry remains isolated and is constrained by limited resources in finance and manpower. Its approach to integration issues has been elitist and technocratic, concentrating on format trade and ignoring the importance of the informai trade that has been the traditional means of popular participation in the integration of West African economies. Borderland communities with economic and social ties continue to engage in exchanges across political boundaries in defiance of national and state security concerns. Empowerment of Ghanaians involved in small-scale, informa] cross-border trade (in majority, women) "would not only increase the levels of social and economic integration, but would make the benefits of integration available to large sections of the population".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Setting out the historical national and religious characteristics of the Italians as they impact on the integration within the European Union, this study makes note of the two characteristics that have an adverse effect on Italian national identity: cleavages between north and south and the dominant role of family. It discusses how for Italians family loyalty is stronger than any other allegiance, including feelings towards their country, their nation, or the EU. Due to such subnational allegiances and values, this book notes that Italian civic society is weaker and engagement at the grass roots is less robust than one finds in other democracies, leaving politics in Italy largely in the hands of political parties. The work concludes by noting that EU membership, however, provides no magic bullet for Italy: it cannot change internal cleavages, the Italian worldview, and family values or the country’s mafia-dominated power matrix, and as a result, the underlying absence of fidelity to a shared polity—Italian or European—leave the country as ungovernable as ever.
