Название: Gaddafi ’s Foreign Policy as a Driving Factor of “the Arab Spring” in Libya
Авторы: Bobrov, Alexander K.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): While considering the factors that contributed to the downfall of the Gaddafi regime the scholars
of the Arab Spring events in Libya mainly focus on the domestic or international dimensions of the
conflict and neglect the fallacies of Gaddafi’s foreign policy that resulted in his international isolation
from the very outset of the Libyan crisis. Breaking away from this pattern the article analyses the
bilateral relations of Libya with the USA, the UK, France, Italy, Switzerland, the Persian Gulf countries
and member-states of the African Union focusing on the practices that led to the conflicts between
Gaddafi and the leaderships of these countries. The author concludes that Gaddafi’s unpredictable,
inconsistent and eccentric foreign policy greatly contributed to the consolidation of an international
consensus in favour of the direct foreign military intervention in the conflict that ended up in Gaddafi’s
ousting from power. Refs. 33.2016-09-01T00:00:00Z“The Perfect Caliphate” — the Salafi ideological revolution

Название: “The Perfect Caliphate” — the Salafi ideological revolution
Авторы: Bakonina, Marianna S.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): Victorious march of the Islamic State (the IS), which a year ago was declared the “Caliphate”, became
the number one event of the world agenda in 2014–2015-s. The IS now controls almost half of the
territory in Syria and Iraq, there are a lot of reports about transitions of the jihadists in Waziristan,
Sinai, Libya, Yemen, Nigeria, the North Caucasus and other regions on the side of the “Caliphate”.
Superefficient propaganda pursued by the “Caliphate” attracts recruits from Europe, USA, Russia and
China, and also allows them to initiate terrorist’s attacks not only in the Middle East but also in Europe,
USA and Australia. The creators of the IS explore in the contemporary ideological and political context
the works of the theologians of the Past (including wide popular among the Salafists: Ibn Hanbal, Ibn
Taymiyya, ‘Abd al-Wahhab and others), they also rationally use the books and concepts of the Salafi
theoreticians of the XX-th century, e.g. Sa’id Qutb, Abdulla’ Azzam and Bin Laden.
This article focuses on the self presentation of the “Caliphate” through “DABIQ” glossy magazine,
and tries to describe the IS as an actor on the world political scene. We suppose to answer on the key
questions about the worldview of the “Caliphate”: why it was proclaimed, how its founders do see their
own state, do they imagine interaction of the “Caliphate” with the outside world, do they have any
allies and what is the exact reason of their extreme radicalism. Refs 11.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZThe System and Concept of dyamu from Manding (Guinea), based on oral sources

Авторы: Zavyalova, Olga Yu.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): This article is devoted to one of the most interesting problem in African studies — the system of dyamu,
clan names. The purpose of this article is a description of the system and its origin, dyamu based on
how it is understood by the carriers themselves — representatives of the peoples of the Manding. The
researches were based both on folklore sources, and on materials of expeditions to Guinea 1999 and
2014. The article presents the collected information about dyamu of Guinea (Siguiri district), their
marriage prohibitions and preferences, names and legends of dyamu clans ancestors-founders, totems,
as well as their senanku (families with whom the representatives of the dyamu clan is in ‘the joking
relationship’). The dyamu system of castes division has appeared for the organization of relationships
of the maden people, as well as joined to them Susu, Soninke and Fulani families in the Mali Empire.
The Manden families occupied the higher positions in the hierarchy in according to their contribution
to the victory and the establishment of the Empire of Mali. Dyamu names themselves are perceived as
laudatory names and their main origin stories are recorded in the epic of Sundyate. Refs. 17.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZThe Music in the Works of Jabra Ibrahim Jabra and the Influence of James Joyce’s Writings

Название: The Music in the Works of Jabra Ibrahim Jabra and the Influence of James Joyce’s Writings
Авторы: Samir, Hajj
Краткий осмотр (реферат): This article will examine the intensive use of reference to music in the works of the Palestinian novelist
Jabra Ibrahim Jabra. It will show that the reference to music in his works displays two functions: the
first is technical in order to stimulate the memory and recuperate distant memories of past events and
the second is denotative and interpretative of the text. This paper will show also the impact of James
Joyce’s writings on the novels of Jabra in the use of reference to music. Jabra used the reference to
music as a creative procedure in his novels; first in A Cry in a Long Night (1946), then in his short story
collection Araqwa-Qiṣaṣ Ukhra (1956) and in Hunters in a Narrow Street (1960). Furthermore, his two
novels The Ship (1970) and In Search of Walid Masoud (1978) show the highest level of use of reference
to music in the Arab novel in general. Refs 16.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZQing legislation on the delimitation of the lands of aimags and banners in Northern Mongolia in the 18th–19th centuries

Название: Qing legislation on the delimitation of the lands of aimags and banners in Northern Mongolia in the 18th–19th centuries
Авторы: Popov, Anton V.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): The article describes the legislation on the delimitation of the territories of aimags and banners
operating in the Northern (Khalkh) Mongolia in the XVIII–XIX centuries during the period of
its being part of the Qing Empire. The adoption of these standards was aimed at creating the legal
prerequisites for planting in Mongolia the system of administrative-territorial division, in charge
of the political interests of the Imperial authorities. Responsibility for approving and monitoring
compliance with the order of the territories` delimitation were within the competence of the Central
government of the Qing Empire. The intersection of the approved border lines without official
authorization were banned for all Mongols, including representatives of higher social strata. However,
the Qing legislation awakened among the population of Mongolian aimags and banners the desire
for better synchronization of their economic and social activities with a well-defined geographical
area. The mechanism of such synchronization has acted largely through the efforts implemented by
the representatives of Khalkh nobility. Their administrative authority and management options, but
not the power of arms (as it was in Mongolia before the Qing period), became the main force that
guaranteed the ownership and disposition of the pasture lands. As a result the social status of the
Khalkh princes acquired additional weight, and their administrative powers in relation to subordinate
population have been filled with new important content, unusual for nomadic traditions, that existed
before the Qing period. It follows that the Mongolian land law reform in fact led to the consequences
which in many respects was contrary to the political interests of the Qing Empire authorities, by whom
those reforms were initiated. Refs 29.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZAfghan genealogies in the early Pashto literary works

Авторы: Pelevin, Mikhail S.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): The article studies genealogical data reported in Dastār-nāma (The Book about Turban) and Tārīkh-i
muraṣṣa‘ (An Ornamented History) by the Pashtun tribal chiefs Khūshḥāl Khān Khaṯak (d. 1689) and
Afżal Khān Khaṯak (d. circa 1740/41). The main tasks of the study are to distinguish between written
and oral (folklore) sources of the Afghan genealogical tradition recorded in the early Pashto literary
works, to determine functionality and ideological motifs of genealogical texts, to characterize gender
aspect in patrilineal relationships, and to arrange and analyze new material pertaining to the research
of ethnic and confessional issues of Pashtun history, such as the historical chronology of formation of
particular tribal groups and Pashtun ethnicity as a whole, supposed traces of ethnical assimilations,
the stages in the process of Islamization (on the basis of personal names statistics, first of all, and with
regard to the existence of parallel “religious” lineages). The study supports the idea that towards the
foundation of the first Afghan state in the middle of the XVIII century Pashtun tribes firmly perceived
themselves as one people with common cultural heritage, and ethnic self-identification was a key element
in their collective as well as individual consciousness. Quoted fragments from original Pashto
sources discussed in the article are translated into Russian for the first time. Refs. 15.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZPolitical crisis in Egypt during the reign of the sultan Faraj (1399–1412)

Авторы: Iliushina, Milana Y.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): In 1382 a Circassian amir Barquq (1382–1389; 1389/1390–1399) usurped power and was proclaimed
sultan. He became the founder and the first ruler of the Circassian Mamluk Sultanate (1382–1517).
Barquq’s son, al-Malik al-Nasir Faraj has succeeded to the throne at the age of eleven years. During
his reign, the Sultanate passed through a long-running political crisis. Timur’s invasion, disgraceful
retreat of Mamluk army from Damascus, insufficient flood of Nile in 1403 and the outbreak of plague
in 1405 had large scale social and economic effects, that redoubled the political tension.
Mamluk emirs were divided into several groups, creating various alignments. Amir ’Aytamush
was the head of Barquqs’ companion’s-in-arms (al-qaranisa). He was defeated be the group of Faraj’s
Mamluks in 1399. Faraj’s Mamluks had no recognized leader. The struggle between them caused a
wave of revolts, which did not stop for five years. In 1404 a group of Faraj’s Mamluks protested against
Faraj’s relatives, who gained growing influence on the sultan. Amirs related by marriage to the sultans
family played an important role in political life of Circassian Sultanate. According to David Ayalon it
was the period of rule by brothers-in-law and relatives. In 1405 during a conflict between Circasian
and Greek Mamluks Faraj was displaced. He returned to the throne after two month and ruled for over
then six years under constant pressure of opposition. In 1412 he has been executed. Faraj’s reign was
the period of change from a power based on hereditary dynastic principle to new patterns of ruleship.

Название: About cultural-psychological sources of neotraditionalism in the East: power and taboo
Авторы: Bocharov, Viktor V.
Краткий осмотр (реферат): The phenomenon of “neotraditionalism”, widely presented today in the East, is analyzed from the
standpoint of cultural-historical psychology. The revival of “archaic” expressions explained the
appeal of political elites (conscious or unconscious) to the deep layers of human consciousness,
which in traditional society ensure the legitimacy of the “power tradition”. The essence of this power
embodied in the social fear, which occurred with the first behavioral norms. In this connection the norm taboos, widely represented in the traditional society, which originally marked the hierarchy,
asymmetry prescribing behavior of the upper and lower strata (rulers and ruled) is analyzed. The
psycho-physiological mechanism of an interdiction (I. P. Pavlov, Z. Kastro), inevitably generating in
mentality the ambivalent feeling which component is the fear reveals. Intentional object of the same
feelings were representatives of the higher strata (L. S. Vygotsky).
The archetype of imperious behavior is tracked on example political practices of the East where
taboos in shape “absurd laws” are much presented in a legal field of the states of region. It also largely
determines the behavior of politicians which acts as time in archaic forms. Refs 60.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZTh e concept of “dead language” as exemplified by Hebrew

Название: Th e concept of “dead language” as exemplified by Hebrew
Авторы: Yampolskaya, Sonya
Краткий осмотр (реферат): This paper examines the problematic concept of dead language as exemplified by the Hebrew language.
The first section presents a brief history of the concept of dead language in European linguistic
thought. Originating in Italy of the 15th century, the term became common in European linguistic
writings during the 16th to 18th centuries as an epithet for Latin, Ancient Greek and Hebrew. During
the Haskala (Jewish Enlightenment) in the 19th century it was adopted by Jewish intellectuals and was
current in linguistic controversies throughout the 20th century. Sections 2 and 3 show the key role the
label dead as applied to Hebrew played in wide-spread polemics on Jewish language choice in Russia
during the first quarter of the 20th century (§ 2) and in the discourse about a Hebrew “revival” in
Palestine at the same period (§ 3). Later works on the history of Hebrew published in the 19th and 20th
centuries proposed novel conceptualizations but nevertheless followed the idea of the “deadness” of the
Hebrew language of previous periods, discussed in § 4. Examples of Hebrew usage which contradict
Hebrew’s functioning exclusively as a language of religion and high-level writings are provided in
§ 5. The last section is a humble attempt to outline a possible direction for a description of Hebrew
language history, avoiding the problematic term dead language and other related terms. Refs 69.2016-09-01T00:00:00ZTypological analysis of the participle with affix gan in the Uzbek language

Краткий осмотр (реферат): In this article the author attempts to analyze the verb form -gan of the Uzbek language. Author on the
particular material (using the facts of some of the other Turkic languages) tends to show that the functionality
of this form and similar forms of it in other Turkic languages is much wider than that of the
participles of the Russian language. Uzbek grammatical form hasn’t only attribute, but also substantive
functions. In sentence it can also act as a attributive adjunct, and as a complement (object).The result is
that the author propose to continue the work of finding an appropriate term for these forms of Turkic
languages. Refs. 24.2016-09-01T00:00:00Z
