Abstract:

Abstract What was the role of the Soviet Union in shaping the political imaginary of anticolonial communists? In 1928 Fu’ad al-Shamali, a tobacco worker born in Ottoman Mount Lebanon and co-founder and general secretary of the Communist Party of Syria and Lebanon (CPSL), traveled to Moscow as a delegate to the Sixth Comintern Congress. He had just been released from prison for participating in the 1925–27 anticolonial Syrian Revolt against French rule. Four years later he published an account of the trip under the title Madha Ra’aytu fi Moscow (What I Saw in Moscow). In this article, the autho

Abstract:

The research Sijniyya: New Prison Songs in Sednaya seeks to study and analyze musical practices from the perspective of personal expression, rather than through the lens of authority and control, contrasting with studies that primarily focus on Syrian prisons. This approach is based on the belief that focusing on personal practices will indirectly reveal the power dynamics within Syrian prisons, especially in Sednaya. Unexpectedly, and by chance, a conversation with a friend suggested that even Syrian torture facilities may hold traces of musical practices. To explore this, the research examin

Deliberating on the concept of neighbour, in his 2020 encyclical, <em>Fratelli Tutti, </em>Pope Francis talks about the importance of becoming a neighbour to others by being “present to those in need of help, regardless of whether or not they belong to our social group.” Becoming a neighbour – it is easier said than done even by a society that is known for its exemplary human and social development, a Christian community that grew up on the parable of the <em>Good Samaritan</em> for close to two millennia, and a political system that not only promises but arguably fights for

During the Cold War, information in Western open sources about Bulgarian Land Forces’ war plans, organisation, and order of battle was absent or very general, until the last years of the 1980s. Yet there is much more information now available after 30 years, and this is a very valid topic for research. Bulgaria was drawn into Soviet war planning for the elimination of capitalism. Bulgaria’s planned part in this was helping to seize the Turkish Straits, either with or without the use of tactical nuclear weapons.

Abstract:

In Iraq, the Kurdish minority was promised a certain measure of autonomy, especially in education. However, tardiness on the part of the Government and revolts by the Kurds prevented it from being put into effect. In Iran, the Kurds managed to attain a degree of autonomy in the Mahabad area with Soviet aid during the Second World War but lost it again when Soviet troops withdrew. Turkish attempts to assimilate the Kurds were not successful and led to periodic revolts. The Kurdish minority in Syria was not an important political factor.

Africa's largest country, Sudan, is first and foremost part of the Arab world, sensitive to the political tides which sweep the Arab peoples from the Atlantic to the Gulf. Like other members of the Arab League, Sudan was taken by surprise by the defeat of 1967. It was shaken by the tidal wave that later engulfed Libya, Lebanon, Iraq, and Syria; and on 25 May 1969, a military regime took over in Khartoum. Its ideology was Arab nationalism infused with socialism; its social base, the army and the urban classes; and its model, the Nasserist experiment.

The book is based on observing chant practice in the Syrian Orthodox Church in contemporary contexts in the Middle East and beyond, while keeping as its nexus of analysis the Edessan chant of St. George’s Church of Hayy al-Suryan and focusing on Passion Week.

Arguing that the diaspora is treated differently by Danish authorities – in comparison to neighbouring Sweden and Germany – the book examines the political lobbyism, the courtroom activism and the humanitarian actvism of the various Kurdish diaspora groups.

A critical revelation was a sprawling Roman military base occupying a quarter of the city's interior. This included swathes of civilian housing converted to soldiers' accommodation and several existing sanctuaries, as well as baths, an amphitheatre, hea

In the period between 1959 and 1998 compatibility was relatively high as Turkish foreign policy was guided by the goal of remaining part of the Western community of states throughout the Cold War and its immediate aftermath.

It reveals that analysts were initially sceptical about the prospect of any form of political unity, partly due to their perception of Syrian political culture as inherently factional and self-serving.

In the intervening year, those states have taken a range of actions — though at various speeds and with varying levels of commitment — to implement the FTF obligations imposed by the Council. Meanwhile, many states continue to fund and otherwise throw their support behind life
