Abstract:

Workplace bullying (WPB) is a pervasive problem in contemporary society, inflicting detrimental repercussions upon employees, employers, and organizations alike. It affects the physical, psychological, and financial wellbeing not only of its victims, but also their families, their communities, and society as a whole. Research into this phenomenon has evolved significantly over the past two decades. While related to the physically violent phenomenon of schoolyard bullying, WPB is primarily a psychological phenomenon, manifesting as abusive power in workplace relationships, rather than as interp

Abstract:

This research investigates the distinct characteristics of Kuwaiti heritage in the context of textile and fashion accessories. Moreover, it addresses how these characteristics can be used in the creation of new contemporary designs that reflect Kuwaiti women’s cultural identity at the current time and are perceived as luxury fashion. Luxury has always been associated with privileged and high-class people who use it as a tool to distinguish themselves from the public in any society. This has been practiced as far back as ancient civilisations such as the Ancient Egyptians and Greeks. In Kuwait,

Abstract:

Corporate governance practice has recently become an important topic around the world and specifically within the emerging stock markets in order to avoid expropriation by corporate management at the expense of minority shareholders.

Abstract:

Kuwait is a gender-segregated country. Its conservative cultural ideology is evident in all areas of social life, including the way people communicate. Men and women have to make conscious language choices during everyday interaction. Certain aspects of Kuwaiti conversational registers are exclusive to either men or women, which reflects not only men’s and women’s separate socialization as children but also separate lifestyles as adults. Kuwait’s gendered context is therefore bound to be unique and of particular sociolinguistic interest, especially since mainstream language and gender literatu
