Marginal Discourse and Strategies of Textual Resistance in the Postcolonial Algerian Novel
type: item
description: Textual marginalia are an ancient typographical phenomenon that has appeared across various forms of discourse and literary genres. They constitute one of the paratextual elements that facilitate the understanding, interpretation, and reconstruction of a text through renewed readings. Marginal discourse has become one of the prominent features of contemporary Arabic narrative, although it appeared only modestly in earlier narrative texts. As a manifestation of literary experimentation and modernity, marginal discourse seeks to revive an adjacent text that interacts with the main body through dialogue, intertextuality, imagination, and the representation of background knowledge and cultural references. Through these references, the writer invites readers to participate in decoding and reconstructing the text after unraveling its cultural, referential, and artistic codes. This parallel discourse also aims to broaden the reader's horizon and transcend the conventional boundaries of the text.

Architectural Solutions for Affordable and Long-Lasting Communities in Resilient Urban Housing
type: item
description: Rapid urbanization, population growth, climate change, and rising social and economic inequality have made the need for cheap, long-lasting, and strong housing even greater around the world. There are a lot of problems in many cities, like not enough homes, bad infrastructure, damage to the environment, and more people being at risk of flooding, heatwaves, earthquakes, and storms. Most of the time, traditional housing models do not deal with these complicated issues. This shows how important it is to come up with new ways to build homes that are both affordable and good for the environment and the climate. Resilient urban housing has become a complete solution that makes communities better able to handle environmental, economic, and social problems while also providing safe, welcoming, and resource-efficient places to live. Architectural solutions for building strong urban housing that helps make communities affordable and long-lasting. It looks at some of the most important ideas in resilient housing design, such as architecture that adapts to changing climates, energy-efficient building systems, sustainable building materials, modular and prefabricated construction, passive design strategies, water conservation, integrating renewable energy, and disaster-resistant structural systems. How digital technologies like Building Information Modeling (BIM), Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Internet of Things (IoT), Geographic Information Systems (GIS), and smart building management systems can help make homes better at using resources wisely and lasting a long time.

Literary Critical Theory in al-Andalus between Innovation and Tradition: Ibn Hazm al-Andalusi as a Model
type: item
description: Throughout its long history, al-Andalus witnessed a rich literary, linguistic, and critical movement. At times, this movement reflected complete dependence on the literary and scholarly activity of the Mashriq, while at other times it represented an attempt to assert its own identity and a tendency toward establishing a distinct literary and intellectual achievement in the face of the increasingly dominant and expansive Mashriqi influence. This concern constituted a persistent dilemma for Andalusian writers and intellectuals, who frequently voiced their complaints about this Eastern cultural invasion and about the inclination toward submission and dependence among the general population of al-Andalus, including common people, writers, and thinkers. Ibn Hazm al-Zahiri represents one of the prominent figures of Arab-Islamic thought, literature, and philosophy. He was a polymath scholar and the author of an extensive intellectual legacy in the fields of legal theory, jurisprudence, language, literature, history, and logic. In addition, he was a critic distinguished by exceptional originality, uniqueness, and controversy among Andalusian critics, despite not being widely recognized as a leading literary critic within Andalusian critical circles and despite not having devoted independent works specifically to his critical views and insights. His critical opinions constitute a significant exercise in critical reasoning, making it difficult for most scholars of literary criticism to overlook them or refrain from examining them and exploring their intellectual and philosophical foundations.

New Trends in Digital Fabrication and Complex Building Forms in Parametric Design and Computational Architecture
type: item
description: The quick growth of digital technologies has totally changed the way buildings are designed. Now, it is possible to build new, highly efficient, and geometrically complex structures that were impossible to imagine or build the old way. Because they combine algorithmic thinking, computational modeling, and digital fabrication, parametric design and computational architecture are very useful tools that have changed the way we make and build things. Parametric design, on the other hand, sets up changing connections between design factors, which is different from traditional design methods. This lets architects use computer programs to create, change, and make better a lot of different design options. It is now easier to make architectural solutions that are responsive, flexible, and focused on performance thanks to this feature. It has also helped with getting the designs right, building quickly, and making the best use of the materials. What role do computational architecture and parametric design play in shaping new trends in digital manufacturing and building shapes that are hard to understand? the main ideas behind generative algorithms, Building Information Modeling (BIM), Artificial Intelligence (AI), Building Performance Simulation (BPS), and digital fabrication technologies such as 3D printing, CNC machining, robotic construction, and parametric modeling. This study looks into how these technologies help with designing and building complex geometries, make construction more accurate, reduce waste, and support green building practices.

Universal Design Principles in Public Architecture: Making Built Environments More Accessible and Open to Everyone
type: item
description: The rising focus on human rights, equal opportunities, and social inclusion has had a big impact on modern architecture, drawing more attention to the creation of buildings that are accessible and include everyone. People of all ages and abilities need to be able to access education, healthcare, transportation, government services, recreation, and cultural activities equally. Public buildings and urban spaces are very important for making this possible. But many public places still have physical, emotional, and mental barriers that make it hard for people to participate on their own, especially disabled people, older adults, children, and people who are temporarily unable to move around. Universal Design is a broad approach to architecture that aims to get rid of these problems by making spaces that are safe, usable, and convenient for everyone, without the need for special modifications or separate design solutions. putting Universal Design ideas into practice in public architecture, with a focus on making spaces more accessible and welcoming for everyone. this book talks about the ideas behind Universal Design and how they can be used in public buildings, transportation hubs, schools, hospitals, government offices, parks, and other places people like to hang out.

The ḥammām as a Cultural Heritage: Comparative Perspectives on Architectural Terminology and Cultural Practices in the Mediterranean and Central Asian Contexts of Tlemcen and Bukhara
type: item
description: This article examines the ḥammām as both an architectural institution and a space of cultural memory through a comparative study of bathhouses in Tlemcen (Algeria) and Bukhara (Uzbekistan). While previous research has primarily focused on construction techniques, hydraulic systems, urban integration, and typological classifications, less attention has been paid to how architectural terminology, spatial experience, and cultural practices interact in the production and transmission of collective memory. The central problem guiding this research is how the architectural terms related to the bathhouse reflect distinct conceptions of space. and how this terminology contributes to the preservation of cultural memory within Islamic societies? The study adopts a qualitative interdisciplinary methodology combining architectural history, phenomenology, lexical analysis, and ethnographic inquiry. The research corpus comprises historical descriptions, endowment documents, architectural surveys, archeological studies, historical dictionaries, dialect vocabularies, ethnographic descriptions, and scholarly works on Islamic bathhouses in the Mediterranean and Central Asian regions. The ethnographic dimension of the study draws on oral testimonies and vernacular narratives related to bathing practices, popular beliefs, ritual traditions and collective memory associated with the traditional bathhouse. The comparative analysis reveals that, despite geographical distance and regional variations, the bathhouses of Tlemcen and Bukhara share a common spatial logic structured around a progressive sequence of transitional spaces linking cold, warm, and hot spaces. Movement through these spaces creates a gradual transformation of bodily and sensory experience, while architectural elements such as domes, filtered light, water basins, and intermediary thresholds contribute to a symbolic process of purification as a fluid and dynamic environment in which circulation, visibility, and ritual prac…

Climate-Responsive Architecture Uses Passive Design Methods to Save Energy in Tropical Areas.
type: item
description: The need for sustainable architectural solutions has grown because of rising energy costs, rapid urbanization, and the effects of climate change. This is especially true in tropical areas where high temperatures, humidity, and solar radiation make cooling and ventilation very energy intensive. Conventional building designs often rely too much on mechanical air conditioning systems, which raises the cost of running the building and releases a lot of greenhouse gases. By using passive design methods to adapt building design to local climate conditions, climate-responsive architecture has become a popular way to cut down on energy use. Passive design strategies make indoor temperatures more comfortable by using natural resources like sunlight, wind, plants, and thermal mass. They do this while reducing the need for artificial energy systems. how passive design techniques used in climate-responsive architecture can help people in tropical areas save energy. It talks about important architectural strategies like courtyard planning, roof design, landscape integration, natural ventilation, daylight optimization, solar shading, thermal insulation, building orientation, and using sustainable building materials that are available in the area.

Audit Committee Characteristics and Audit Quality
type: item
description: The audit committee plays a pivotal role in strengthening corporate governance by overseeing financial reporting, internal controls, risk management, and the external audit process. The effectiveness of an audit committee largely depends on its characteristics, including independence, financial expertise, committee size, meeting frequency, and diligence, which collectively influence the quality of auditing and the reliability of financial reporting. This study examines the relationship between audit committee characteristics and audit quality by evaluating how these governance attributes affect auditor independence, financial reporting quality, internal control effectiveness, and stakeholder confidence. A quantitative research design was employed, and data were collected through structured questionnaires administered to audit committee members, external auditors, internal auditors, finance managers, and corporate executives across selected organizations. Appropriate statistical techniques were used to analyze the relationship between audit committee characteristics and audit quality. audit committees with greater independence, higher levels of financial expertise, regular meetings, and active oversight significantly improve audit quality by strengthening auditor independence, enhancing internal controls, reducing financial reporting errors, and promoting compliance with regulatory requirements. Furthermore, effective audit committees contribute to improved corporate transparency, reduced fraud risk, and greater investor confidence. The study concludes that well-structured audit committees are essential for ensuring high-quality auditing and effective corporate governance. The findings provide valuable insights for corporate boards, regulators, policymakers, audit professionals, and researchers seeking to strengthen governance frameworks through effective audit committee practices

The Principle of Proportionality vis-à-vis Military Necessity
type: item
description: The principle of proportionality (PP) is considered one of the fundamental principles of international humanitarian law (IHL). It serves as the standard for balancing the requirements of humanity with military necessity. Any military advantage achieved must not come at the expense of humanitarian considerations. Violating this principle causes unjustified harm to humanity and results in suffering that cannot be legally or morally justified. Accordingly, parties to an armed conflict must adhere to the principle of proportionality to ensure that humanitarian considerations take precedence over any military advantage that may be achieved.

An Evaluation of the Toxicological Effects of Microplastics on Marine Invertebrates
type: item
description: As a result of the alarming proliferation of microplastics in marine environments, particularly among the invertebrates that are essential to aquatic food webs, there has been an increase in the number of concerns regarding the ecological and toxicological effects of microplastics. According to the most recent scientific findings and observations made in the field, the effects of microplastics on a number of different invertebrate species found in the ocean, such as mollusks, crustaceans, echinoderms, and cnidarians, are being investigated. Due to the fact that microplastics are so small and persistent, filter feeders and deposit feeders are able to easily consume them. This in turn leads to bioaccumulation and trophic transmission. This can have a knock-on effect on development, progeny, and survival rates, since it can cause physical blockages, lower feeding efficiency, and poor energy allocation. These are some of the detrimental effects that they can have after being digested. In organisms, exposure to microplastics can result in oxidative stress, inflammatory reactions, disruption of the endocrine system, and genotoxicity. This is due to the fact that microplastics act as vectors for harmful additives and contaminants that are adsorbed onto them, such as heavy metals and persistent organic compounds. According to comparative research, the majority of the factors that determine vulnerability are feeding strategies and physiological characteristics that are tailored to a particular species. Bivalves and zooplankton are particularly susceptible to extinction. Alterations in behavior, changes in enzyme activity, and suppression of the immune system are all examples of sublethal repercussions that could put the functioning of the ecosystem and the stability of the population in jeopardy. The findings of this analysis indicate the important need for standardized testing procedures, improved monitoring of microplastic contamination, and the incorporation of ecotoxicol…

The Rhetoric of Persuasion in Qur'anic Discourse: Surah Al-Ma'un as a Model
type: item
description: This research seeks to explore the mechanisms of the rhetoric of persuasion in Qur'anic discourse, taking Surah Al-Ma'un as an applied model, through a rhetorical-argumentative approach that transcends the purely aesthetic view of rhetoric to consider it as a persuasive communicative act aimed at the receiver. The research is based on the hypothesis that Qur'anic inimitability (I'jaz) is not only manifested in the aesthetics of composition, but also in its superior ability to employ rhetorical and argumentative energies to build a coherent persuasive discourse that reshapes the receiver's worldview. The theoretical aspect focuses on rooting the concept of the rhetoric of persuasion in both Arab and Western heritage, distinguishing between persuasion and argumentation, with a focus on argumentation theory in the New Rhetoric. The applied aspect analyzes Surah Al-Ma'un phonetically, morphologically, syntactically, and semantically, revealing its synergistic persuasive strategies, such as the oath structure, syntactic shifts, the technique of contrast-based imagery, pronoun shifts, and rhythmic engineering. The research concludes that Surah Al-Ma'un represents a unique model of condensed persuasive discourse that achieves its goal through the synergy of rhetorical, argumentative, and aesthetic mechanisms, transcending mere information to profoundly impact the mind and conscience

Butterfly Diversity in Tropical Forests and the Impact of Habitat Fragmentation
type: item
description: Major factors of habitat fragmentation, including deforestation, agricultural expansion, and urbanization, provide a significant threat to the biodiversity of tropical ecosystems. Butterflies are particularly vulnerable to the destruction and fragmentation of forest ecosystems due to their role as sensitive bioindicators of climate change. Field surveys, species richness evaluations, and landscape ecology frameworks were utilized in this study to investigate how habitat fragmentation affects butterfly diversity in tropical forests. Fragmentation drastically lowers community composition, species richness, and abundance. This is most harmful to butterflies that are specialists or rely on forests for their survival. Reduced functional diversity and biotic homogeneity may result from fragmented landscapes supporting more edge-adapted and generalist species. Important ecological processes such as dispersal, host plant availability, and microclimatic stability are disrupted, altering species interactions and reducing the likelihood of specialized species' survival.
