The Minimalist Program

The Minimalist Program

The development of the Minimalist Program (MP), Noam Chomsky's most recent generative model of linguistics, has been highly influential over the last twenty years. It has had significant implications not only for the conduct of linguistic analysis itself, but also for our understanding of the status of linguistics as a science. The reflections and analyses in this book contain insights into the strengths and the weaknesses of the MP. These include: a clarification of the content of the Strong Minimalist Thesis (SMT); a synthesis of Chomsky's linguistic and interdisciplinary discourses; and an analysis of the notion of optimal computation from conceptual, empirical and philosophical perspectives. This book will encourage graduate students and researchers in linguistics to reflect on the foundations of their discipline, and the interdisciplinary nature of the topics explored will appeal to those studying biolinguistics, neurolinguistics, the philosophy of language and other related disciplines.

In back to back HVDC technology we can easily control the flow of power and synchronize two different systems. Our project is based on the simulation studies and thus the feasibility of this Back to Back HVDC system which will be incorporated between Pakistan and India over a distance of less than 100 km. For simulation, the software used is Power System Simulator for Engineers, PSS/E. The working of this software is discussed in detail. In our thesis we have discussed back to back HVDC both theoretically and through simulation. They are employed on the India to Pakistan power transfer. The stability and thus the feasibility of this project is proved by simulation in PSS/E. Different types of transients have been applied to the system and stability of various parameters has been studied.
Fahad Hajailan, Amina Agueznay
The fifth and sixth volumes of The Art Library, a pioneering art series that documents the most important modern and contemporary Arab artists. These gorgeously designed volumes offer an informal and yet detailed introduction to the most prominent figures of Arab art. The collection is characterized by medium-size books, each one dedicated to a single artist, richly illustrated, and rigorously documented. The publications, with editions in English and Arabic, are launched two by two seasonally, in spring and fall, in a sophisticated cardboard slipcase. Each slipcase presents a Saudi along with a non-Saudi artist. The content of the series is developed by Misk Art Institute in collaboration with renowned authors specializing in Arab art and under the curatorship of Mona Khazindar, former general director of the Institut du monde arabe in Paris. Fahad Hajailan (1957–2018) is a Saudi fine artist. He is one of the most prominent artists in the contemporary Saudi fine arts scene and a founding member of the Riyadh Fine Art Group. Amina Agueznay (1963–) was born in Casablanca, Morocco, where she currently lives and works. Since 1999, when she exhibited her work at the Institut du monde arabe in Paris, Agueznay has regularly shown in contemporary art exhibitions in Casablanca, Rabat, Marrakech, New York, Paris, Algiers, Lille, Rotterdam, Stuttgart, and Berlin, among others.
The Development of Saudi-Iranian Relations since the 1990s

The Development of Saudi-Iranian Relations since the 1990s

Saudi Arabia and Iran have established themselves as the two regional heavyweights in one of the world’s most tumultuous but critically significant regions. The two countries compete on many fronts, including regional politics, oil prices, and for leadership of the Islamic world, a competition with undeniable repercussions for the Greater Middle East and for the world. Some observers have gone so far as to claim that virtually everything that happens in this area of the world can be viewed as part of the Saudi-Iranian power struggle. With increasing importance of the region as the dominant supplier of world energy and the birthplace of Islamic militant groups, the consequences of not understanding Saudi-Iranian rivalry in the region have never been more serious. A range of internal and external explanatory factors explains the ups and downs of Saudi-Iranian relations since the 1990s. This book captures this complexity by drawing on multicausal explanations through multiple levels of interdisciplinary analysis. This is the first book on the subject that is co-authored by one author from Saudi Arabia and one from Iran. This collaboration allowed the authors to make the best use of Persian and Arabic sources, generating a locally meaningful account of the two countries’ relationship. As Iranian and Saudi nationals, they encountered less difficulty in gaining access to research participants, building rapport and conducting interviews with Iranian and Saudi scholars and informants.
Monsoon Voyagers

Monsoon Voyagers

Fahad Ahmad Bishara

University of California Press

sidottu
Monsoon Voyagers follows the voyage of a single dhow, the Crooked, along with its captain and crew, from Kuwait to port cities around the Persian Gulf and Western Indian Ocean, from 1924 to 1925. Through the voyage, Fahad Ahmad Bishara unpacks a much broader history of circulation and exchange across the Arabian Sea in the time of empire. From their offices in India, Arabia, and East Africa, Gulf merchants used the technologies of colonial capitalism—banks, steamships, railroads, telegraphs, and more—to remake their own regional bazaar economy. In the process, they remade the Gulf itself. Drawing on the Crooked's first-person logbooks, along with letters, notes, and business accounts from a range of port cities, Monsoon Voyagers narrates the still-untold connected histories of the Gulf and Indian Ocean. The Gulf's past, it suggests, played out across the sea as much as it did the land.

In this innovative legal history of economic life in the Western Indian Ocean, Bishara examines the transformations of Islamic law and Islamicate commercial practices during the emergence of modern capitalism in the region. In this time of expanding commercial activity, a mélange of Arab, Indian, Swahili and Baloch merchants, planters, jurists, judges, soldiers and seamen forged the frontiers of a shared world. The interlinked worlds of trade and politics that these actors created, the shared commercial grammars and institutions that they developed and the spatial and socio-economic mobilities they engaged in endured until at least the middle of the twentieth century. This major study examines the Indian Ocean from Oman to India and East Africa over an extended period of time, drawing together the histories of commerce, law and empire in a sophisticated, original and richly textured history of capitalism in the Islamic world.

'This book tackles the problem of Nabataean identity and the specific question of whether there was Nabataean resistance to the Roman takeover in 106 CE. It brings to these questions an awareness of modern theoretical approaches to identity and ethnicity and a critical view of the history within the context of post-colonial approaches to imperialism.' - Professor John Healey.
A Case Study for the Potential of Carbon Capture and Storage in Qatar
This book collates research data on the current global implementation of carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS), analyses the challenges of CO2 management in the long-term, as well as locates the opportunities of such technologies for the context of specific countries, in this case being Qatar. The different types of CO2 sequestration technology are defined, their global implementation discussed, and other key characteristics measured. The study primarily utilizes a systematic review methodology to identify the latest trends in CCUS, as well as analyzing current technological, socio-economic, and political conditions using publicly available sources. Findings highlighted from the literature review are compiled into a survey, which is aimed at specifically targeted specialist professionals in the CCUS industry who can provide input about the applicability of particular CCUS solutions to Qatar. A deeper analysis of this methodology combines desktop and survey information for an analysis of the topic, including the specific suitability of technologies for Qatar, current initiatives, as well as providing insight on how the identified systems can be integrated for an infrastructure level carbon sequestration system. As part of the Qatar-based discussion, analysis findings are critically examined in relation to their economic feasibility in comparison to current environmental socioeconomic drivers, i.e., the vital economic out-put of the country's dependence on the oil and gas sector, political threats from international relations and global climate change, as well as the lack of sustainable food and water sources in Qatar.
