Thisudy examines the relationship between language and identity in Kuwait, focusing on the implications of diglossia amongst generations X and Z (those born between 1960-1980 and 1997-2012). The use of Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) and Kuwaiti Arabic in different settings is a prevalent feature of Kuwait’s linguistic landscape. Some voices call for the standardization of Arabic dialects to obtain national independent identities, disassociating from Arabs and the Arabic language.

Abstract:
SummaryIndirect techniques are applied to estimate the current level of fertility and mortality among Kuwaiti nationals in Kuwait during 1980–85. The various methods discussed provide estimates in the vicinity of 45 per thousand for birth rate and 8 per thousand for death rate. While child spacing by birth order in Kuwait is about 2 years, the proportion of childlessness is very low (1%). As a consequence of lower mortality and stable high fertility, the Kuwaiti population remains young.

Discussions of the Separation of Powers (SOP) tend to be related to the administrative state, at the expense of the criminal state. This research addresses the question of separating powers within the criminal justice system of Kuwait, examining the function of this division and the structures that are designed to protect the rights of citizens. Despite being regulated according to democratic principles, the criminal justice system of Kuwait has been described as excessively controlled by executive bodies. Currently, there appears to be a lack of research explaining how numerous criminal justi

With first-person narration, the novel tells a story about a half-Filipino, half-Kuwaiti teen who is struggling with his hybrid iden- tity. Set partly in the postcolonial Philippines, partly in oil-rich Kuwait, this novel depicts the main character’s quest for a place where he belongs.
