Ethical Issues in Applied Linguistics Scholarship
This volume contributes to ongoing discussions of ethics in Applied Linguistics scholarship by focusing in depth on several different sub-areas within the field. The book is comprised of four sections: methodological approaches to research; specific participant populations and contexts of research; (language) pedagogy and policy; and personal and interactive aspects of research and scholarship. Moving beyond discussions of how ethics is conceptualized or defined, the chapters in this volume explore ethics-in-practice by examining context-specific ethical challenges and offering guidance for current and future Applied Linguistics scholars. This volume responds to the need to provide context-specific research ethics training for graduate students and novice researchers interested in a variety of contexts and methodological approaches. After engaging with this volume, new and experienced applied linguists alike will gain familiarity with specific ethical challenges and practices within particular sub-disciplines relevant to their work and across the field more broadly.
Islamists and Secularists in Egypt
In a detailed analysis of the continued survival of authoritarian governments in the Arab world, this book uses Egypt as a case study to address the timely and complex issue of democratization in the Middle East. The author argues that their longevity is less to do with the strength of the regime, but more closely related to the divisions and weakness of opposition groupings.
الممارسة العالمية في سياق ادارة ومراقبة الانتخابات حول العالم
Elections are the cornerstone of democracy, serving as the most effective means of political control. They empower individuals to shape their government by selecting from a pool of political candidates who will chart the course for their collective future. Furthermore, elections enable significant decisions to be made through referendums. The pivotal role of elections in shaping the political landscape has generated substantial global interest. While elections were once solely viewed as a mechanism for determining political power, their significance has evolved significantly. This transformation has been particularly evident since the 43rd American Presidential Elections in 2000, which brought about significant developments. As a result, elections have shifted from the periphery of political and academic discourse to its very core. Their prominence continues to surge, garnering ever-increasing attention worldwide.

Conflict, Identity, and Reform in the Muslim World
Conflict, Identity, and Reform in the Muslim World highlights the challenges that escalating identity conflicts within Muslim-majority states pose for both the Muslim world and for the West, an issue that has received scant attention in policy and academic circles.
Ethnographies of Academic Writing Research
This book illustrates the use of ethnography as an analytical approach to investigate academic writing, and provides critical insights into how academic writing research can benefit from the use of ethnographic methods. Throughout its six theoretical and practice-oriented studies, together with the introductory chapter, foreword and afterword, ethnography-related concepts like thick description, deep theorizing, participatory research, research reflexivity or ethics are discussed against the affordances of ethnography for the study of academic writing. The book is key reading for scholars, researchers and instructors in the areas of applied linguistics, academic writing, academic literacies and genre studies. It will also be useful to those lecturers and postgraduate students working in English for Academic Purposes and disciplinary writing. The volume provides ethnographically-oriented researchers with clear pointers about how to incorporate the telling of the inside story into their traditional main role as observers.
Soldiers, Spies, and Statesmen
One of the most momentous events in the Arab uprisings that swept across the Middle East in 2011 was the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak. As dramatic and sudden as this seemed, it was only one further episode in an ongoing power struggle between the three components of Egypt's authoritarian regime: the military, the security services, and the government. A detailed study of the interactions within this invidious triangle over six decades of war, conspiracy, and sociopolitical transformation, Soldiers, Spies, and Statesmen is the first systematic analysis of recent Egyptian history. This paperback edition, updated to incorporate events in 2013, provides the background necessary to understanding how the military rebranded itself as the defender of democracy and ousted Mubarak's successor, Muhammad Morsi. Impeccably researched and filled with intrigue, Soldiers, Spies, and Statesmen is an indispensable guide for anyone trying to fathom what this latest development means for Egypt's future.
