Gender Role Attitudes among Higher Education Students in Jordan
No full textYouth are the change agents of any society, therefore, it is critical to identify their attitudes toward gender roles. The study utilizes a social survey approach, where a stratified random sample is selected from the study population, which consists of Jordanian youth who are enrolled at the University of Jordan in Amman, Jordan. The size of the sample is 848 youth, with 33.5% (N=284) males and 66.5% females (N=564). A survey, based on two scales, is developed to measure youth’s attitudes toward gender roles: the gender professions scale and the gender skills scale. The study also examines the effect of the following variables: age, type of college, place of residence, monthly income, and educational level of the mother. The analysis uses statistical methods to recognize differences in attitudes, to understand the relationship between the independent and dependent variables, and to determine statistical significance (set at p ≤ 0.05). The results show that the attitudes of female youth toward gender roles are nontraditional in comparison to those of their male counterparts. Moreover, attitudes toward gender roles tend to be gender-balanced among older youth who live in urban areas, study in humanitarian colleges, and whose mother’s educational level is high. The study highlights the importance of institutionalizing the concept of gender in higher educational institutions

El extranjero: Albert Camus vs. Kamel Daoud. Por un postexistencialismo libertario
No full textThe Stranger by Camus is one of the most widely read books in the world. This essay tackles Camus philosophy of the absurd in his philosophical tale, along with libertarian spirit that Daoud’s counter inquiry tends to defend, nearly half a century later, in The Meursault Investigation. Indeed the Algerian author offers a retelling of The Stranger in order to confront the absurd figured by Camus with those real harsh conditions of living that his own people had to endure, at least concerning its minorities. We are the absurd! This is the thesis the author wishes to defend. This dialogue between Daoud and Camus argues the issue of a potential process of independence and liberty from a libertarian and post-existentialist perspective.El extranjero de Albert Camus es uno de los libros más leídos del mundo. El presente ensayo pone en relieve la filosofía del absurdo que aborda Camus en este cuento filosófico con la visión libertaria defendida, medio siglo después, por Kamel Daoud en su contra encuesta: Meursault, caso revisado. El autor argelino propone reescribir El extranjero para confrontar el absurdo desde las condiciones objetivas de existencia sufridas por las minorías de su pueblo. ¡El absurdo somos nosotros!, es la tesis que defiende el autor. Este diálogo Albert Camus vs. Kamel Daoud argumenta la posible construcción de un proceso de independencia y de libertad a partir de un post-existencialismo-libertario

Contemporary African Literatures Under Tension : A “Tokenized” Werstern Gaze ? The Case of Algerian Writer Kamel Daoud
No full textKamel Daoud has become a globalized author. His authorial figure, increasingly polarized between his homeland and his host space, makes him a controversial writer. Indeed, the Algerian writer is often criticized for adopting a discourse in line with the host literary field, in this case France, thus adapting an authorial stance adjusted to the ideas and ideals of the coveted literary space. In turn, the host field offers the Algerian writer the media coverage necessary for his literary and social recognition, which is often criticized for being conditioned by symbolic expectations. His posture, which oscillates between criticism of his own country and a discourse adapted to the French intellectual space, raises the question of his possible tokenization. In this article, we propose to analyze the mechanisms of the literary and social recognition of the writer Kamel Daoud from the tokenist prism, through his discourses within his work and outside of itKamel Daoud est devenu un écrivain algérien et africain globalisé. Sa figure d’auteur, de plus en plus polarisée entre l’espace d’origine et l’espace d’accueil, fait de lui un écrivain controversé. En effet, il est souvent reproché au romancier algérien d’adopter un discours en adéquation avec le champ littéraire d’accueil, en l’occurrence la France, adaptant dès lors une posture auctoriale ajustée aux idées et idéaux de l’espace littéraire occidental. À son tour, le champ d’accueil offre à l’écrivain algérien la médiatisation nécessaire à sa reconnaissance littéraire et sociale, à laquelle on reproche souvent d’être conditionnée à des attentes symboliques. Sa posture, qui oscille entre la critique de sa propre contrée et un discours adapté à l’espace intellectuel français, soulève la question de sa possible « tokénisation ». Dans cet article, nous proposons d’analyser les mécanismes de la reconnaissance littéraire et sociale de l’écrivain Kamel Daoud sous le prisme tokéniste à travers ses discours dans son œuvre et à l’extérieur de cette dernière
Le port antique de Missua (Sidi Daoud)
No full textCette étude analyse le port antique de Missua (Sidi Daoud, cap Bon, Tunisie), qui a fait l’objet d’un programme de recherches archéologiques et paléo-environnementales. Des carottages ont été effectués dans le bassin portuaire ainsi que des prospections sous-marines. L’étude haute-résolution des sédiments a permis la caractérisation et la reconstitution chrono-stratigraphique et bio-sédimentologique des milieux littoraux. L’étude archéologique a permis de définir un ensemble de deux bassins portuaires équipés de jetées en blocs de maçonnerie et situés au nord et au sud de Sidi Daoud.In this paper, we focused on the ancient port of Missua (Sidi Daoud, cape Bon, Tunisia), which was the subject of an archaeological and palaeo-environnemental research project. Coring and underwater surveys were conducted. High-resolution sediment study enabled characterization and reconstruction of the evolution of the chrono-stratigraphic and bio-sedimentological environments. The archaeological study yielded definition of a set of two harbor basins equipped with jetties made of ashlar blocks and located both on the north and on the south side of the modern Sidi Daoud
