  • International Tourism in Post-revolution Egypt: Value Conflict and Economic Pragmatism by Sandrine Gamblin

    International Tourism in Post-revolution Egypt: Value Conflict and Economic Pragmatism

    Sandrine Gamblin

    Egypt is a country of its people. What has been the effect on its inhabitants of the 2011 revolution and subsequent developments? In 2013, a conference held under the auspices of Cairo Papers in Social Science examined this issue from the points of view of anthropologists, historians, political scientists, psychologists, and urban planners. The papers collected here reveal the strategies that various actors employed in this situation.

  • Greening in Contemporary Arabic Literature: The Transformation of Mythic Motifs in Postcolonial Discourse by Ferial J. Ghazoul

    Greening in Contemporary Arabic Literature: The Transformation of Mythic Motifs in Postcolonial Discourse

    Ferial J. Ghazoul

    This chapter focuses on the motif of greening in contemporary Arabic literature by giving selected examples of how the motif carries with it a regenerative subtext and a critique of the present collapse of environmental health. The socioeconomic structure of the Arab World until recently has been based on rural village life and desert oases, with farming as a major source of livelihood, thus making green emblematic of growth and life-giving forces. There has been no shortage of works on the environment in recent years in Egypt and the Arab world as long as the question is social, political, or anthropological. Recent works in prose and poetry deploy or invoke mythic motifs of greening, literally and metaphorically, to point to degradation of the environment or/and the hope for a greener future. A country like Ireland evokes greenness; in fact it is referred to as the Emerald Island. The precolonial mythic motifs are submerged in postcolonial discourse.
