The Integration And Securitization Of Muslim Migrants In Europe, Yasmeen Nawwar
The Integration And Securitization Of Muslim Migrants In Europe, Yasmeen Nawwar
Theses and Dissertations
In its efforts to integrate newly entering migrants into their societies, Europe has established integration policies that negatively impact these migrants, especially those from racialized backgrounds. The policies mask an agenda of securitization against outsiders who are falsely considered to be a danger to national security and national identity. Since the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center in the United States, many Western countries, including European countries, began to build a culture of fear against Muslims. Europe began to increasingly associate migrants with problems such as trafficking, radicalization, and terrorism. As a result, Europe began to treat migration as …

Experiences Of Egyptian Female Journalists With Workplace Gender Discrimination, Mai Ismail

There is an upward trend in the employment of women in the media worldwide and in the Middle East.

Life, Death, And Corporeal Resistance In Immigration Detention, Jana Michelle Moss
Life, Death, And Corporeal Resistance In Immigration Detention, Jana Michelle Moss
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis analyzes corporeal strategies of resistance used by immigration detainees in the global North. Corporeal resistance is defined as an act of protest that physically harms the actor but is not intended to harm anyone else. Examples include hunger strikes, lip sewing, self-immolation, and other forms of public suicide. In response to the prevailing public opinion that detainees' acts of self-harm or suicide are simply acts of desperation by disenfranchised people who have nothing to lose, I argue that they can be a logical and strategic response to state necropolitics. Detainees take back corporeal necropower by reasserting control of …
Migration And Shifting Borders: Re-Conceptualizing Non-Citizens In Turkey, Jessica Zerrin Holle
Migration And Shifting Borders: Re-Conceptualizing Non-Citizens In Turkey, Jessica Zerrin Holle
Theses and Dissertations
In an age of securitization, in which the movement of individuals across borders has become securitized, and in which borders themselves are being externalized in an attempt to curb migration flows, the conventional notion of a static citizen-state relationship within the nation-state system is increasingly becoming inapplicable. Central to this thesis is the question: In a climate of securitized migration, and against the backdrop of the refugee/migration "crisis" has the externalization of EU borders through its migration management partnership with Turkey contributed to or brought about alternative conceptualizations of foreignness, citizenship, and non-citizenship in Turkey? Protection for asylum seekers in …
Versions Of The Alter Ego: A Study Of Joyce, Kushner, And Ellis, Sherif Mahmoud El Newehy
Versions Of The Alter Ego: A Study Of Joyce, Kushner, And Ellis, Sherif Mahmoud El Newehy
Theses and Dissertations
This thesis aims to illustrate the value of reading modern literary fiction through the theme of the alter ego. In this thesis, I demonstrate how the writer explores the various meanings of the alter ego in composing intensely imaginative works of fiction that negotiate the creative process in conscious terms. The thesis is indebted to the psychocriticism of Charles Maurron, which enables the domain of the alter ego to be examined in formal and aesthetic terms. In connecting a given work's themes to the alter ego motif, this thesis evaluates the impact of the writer's psychology on his work and …
Political Satire In Egypt After 2011: The Effect Of The Second Season Of The Satirical Show “Al-Bernameg” (2012-2013) On The Egyptian Audience, Radwa Elgabry
Theses and Dissertations
The introduction of the political satire program "Al-Bernameg" (The Program) in Egypt has created massive discussion in the media related to the level of acceptance of Egyptians to this new format and its effects on the audience. Satirical programming has been a key part of political discourse in Western culture for some time and a part of global art for centuries. It has also been established that such programming is of particular influence on Western voters, who turn to this nature of programming before others in order to gather political information. This study sheds the light on the effects of …
