The traumatic experience and sexual violence in Halima Bashir’s tears of the desert
El objetivo principal de este trabajo se centra en el análisis de la experiencia traumática de la escritora sudanesa Halima Bashir en su obra autobiográfica Las lágrimas del desierto. A la hora de analizar la obra hemos tenido en cuenta los postulados del trauma para entender la función de la memoria como herramienta a partir de la cual la memoria individual de Halima se convierte en memoria colectiva para los sudaneses oprimidos en Darfur. La obra de Halima, aunque se centra en la experiencia de violación de un individuo, implica un mensaje político y un testimonio histórico de las atrocidades en Darfur.This paper applies trauma theory to Tears of the Desert, an autobiography written by the Sudanese author Halima Bashir. It examines the traumatic experience of the protagonist Halima Bashir who has been raped during Darfur conflict. In applying the aforementioned theory, this paper shows how the traumatic memory of Halima stands as a collective memory for the oppressed Sudanese in Darfur. Halima’s work, although focusing on the rape experience of an individual, implies a political message that many Sudanese were subjected to physical and psychological traumas as they were bearing witness to the conflict in Darfur
ANALYSE DU POUVOIR EPURATEUR DE QUELQUES PLANTES MACROPHYTES DANS LES REGIONS ARIDES
Nous avons traité dans notre mémoire une analyse expérimentale du pouvoir épurateur de quelques plantes macrophytes dans les régions arides. Nous avons réalisé cette étude au département de l’Hydraulique (Université Mohamed Khider Biskra), nous avons planté quatre espèces de ces plantes macrophytes (Arundo donax, Cyperus laevigatus , Juncus capitatus , Tamaris africana) dans un substrat de gravier avec un filtre nu (gravier) comme un témoin.
Les résultats obtenus montrent que les lits plantés de macrophytes sont bien adaptés à des réalisations peu coûteuses et nécessitant peu de connaissances techniques. En effet, l’entretien d’une station de phytoépuration peut se résumer à une opération d'entretien de type jardinag

Penerapan Metode 2SLS (Two Stage Least Square) pada Model Persamaan Simultan Data Panel Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) dan Gross Domestic Product (GDP) di ASEAN
Foreign Direct Invesment (FDI) merupakan bentuk khusus dari arus modal lintas batas dari negara asal ke negara tujuan investasi dan GDP atau dikenal sebagai gross domestic product merupakan nilai barang dan jasa yang diproduksi di dalam negara yang bersangkutan dalam kurun waktu tertentu. Beberapa hasil penelitian sebelumnya menunjukkan bahwa terdapat pengaruh FDI terhadap Growth GDP dan begitupun Growth GDP berpengaruh terhadap FDI yang didukung pula oleh variabel lain yaitu Degree of Openness, Labor Force, Gross Fixed Capital Formation dan Balance of Trade maka dari itu penulis akan melakukan analisis persamaan simultan dengan menggunakan metode 2SLS (two Stage Least Square) di ASEAN. Berdasarkan
hasil analisis yang sudah dilakukan didapat bahwa terdapat pengaruh growth GDP, Degree of Openness dan Labor Force pada FDI terhadap GDP dengan kebaikan model sebesar 96,40% dan terdapat pengaruh dari FDI terhadap GDP, Gross Fixed Capital Formation terhadap GDP dan Balance of Trade terhadap Growth GDP dengan kebaikan model sebesar 88,29%.
==================================================================================================
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is a special form of crossborder capital flows from the country of origin to the country of investment destination and GDP or known as gross domestic product is the value of goods and services produced within the country concerned within a certain period of time. Several previous research results show that there is an effect of FDI on growth GDP and GDP growth has an effect on FDI which is also supported by other variables, namely Degree of Openness, Labor Force, Gross Fixed Capital Formation and Balance of Trade, therefore the author will conduct simultaneous equation analysis using the 2SLS (Two Stage Least Square), method in the ASEAN region. Based on the results of the analysis that has been done, it is found that there is an influence of growth GDP, Degree of Openness and Labor Force to FDI on GDP with a goodness of fit 96.40% and there is an influence of FDI on GDP, Gross Fixed Capital Formation on GDP and Balance of Trade to Growth GDP with the goodness of fit 88.29%

Commodifying multicultures: urban regeneration and the politics of space in Spitalfields
PhDSpitalfields, within close distance to the City of London. has been subject to intense
regeneration and gentrification in recent years. This thesis investigates the use of
culture in promoting urban regeneration. This thesis analyses the role of
multiculturally based regeneration in Spitalfields and assesses the possibilities for
civic engagement in a number of recent regeneration initiatives. I argue that
regeneration in Spitalfields has taken a cultural turn, and that a new set of discourses
is present in regeneration practices. These new forms of regeneration practices
demand a different kind of interpretation. This distinctiveness in policy consists of
the use and mobilisation of 'culture' and 'multicultural capital' as tools for
regeneration. Most notably the study's timing during a phase of intense change sets it
apart as one of the few studies undertaken of the complex relationship between the
new cultural industries, multicultural capital and the practice of selling places. The
study's theoretical framework draws from a range of inter-disciplinary literature on
urban space. cultural politics and feminist theory.
In capturing a series of moments that took place between 2000 and 2003,1
analyse a range of regeneration initiatives but focus closely on three case studies: the
construction of Banglatown in Brick Lane, the Rich Mix Centre for London, and the
annual street festivals/melas that took place in 2001 and 2002. I focused on two sets
of respondents - young people and young Muslim women whose experiences of
regeneration raise unsettling questions of inclusion and exclusion in/through space.
Cumulatively these sites are key examples of Spitalfields' multi-cultural spaces.
They extend a sense of promise to all its residents in the hope of a cosmopolitan
future or progressive city politics.
The tensions from these cultural strategies pose challenges for thinking about the
place of citizenship in urban multicultures. The research findings point to a
sophisticated understanding of the relationship of ethnicity, gender, commerce and
public space
