Abstract: Considerable proportions of married women in India experience violence from their male partners. Gender theorists have underscored the role of masculine norms in contributing to alcohol intoxication and violence towards female partners. Though there exist a number of studies on gender based violence in general and domestic violence in particular, not many studies have focused solely on the men's account of the violence. This study attempts to examine the gender construction ebedded in the selves of male perpetrators of domestic violence. The study includes case studies of 15 (Fifteen) heterosexual, married men hailing from Malappuram District, Kerala who were selected purposively. A qualitative methodology was used for the study. It was found that these men presented themselves as..........

Abstract: This article is a critical analysis of the Arabic version of the 'Moroccan strategic vision of education and training'. This 'vision', which was issued by the Moroccan Supreme Council for Education, Training, and Scientific Research, establishes a roadmap for reforming the Moroccan educational and training systems from 2015 to 2030. The 'vision' is analyzed within the framework of critical discourse analysis. As such, micro and macro linguistic features are utilized to scrutinize the structure of the text. The focus is, in particular, on how language can be strategically used to influence the reader's perception of education and training and implicitly enforce them to accept the council's recommendations. By analyzing the text, it is observed that the council uses a number of linguistic techniques (e.g. nominalization, metaphorization, handling responsibility, techniques of persuasion, etc.) to negatively evaluate the past and present education and training situations and dictate an urgent action to reform education and training..

Abstract: Nigeria,Africa‟s most populated country,has faced varying levels of internal conflicts in almost all the regions of the country. Having coexisted for over 100 years as a country since its creation by the British colonial administration in 1914, it would have been expected that the different ethnic and religious groups in the country could coexist in peace and harmony but the situation is not so, as ethnic and religious violence is a common occurrence in the country, most especially in the northern regions with Kaduna State among the most affected. This study is undertaken to understand how ethno-religious conflicts in Kaduna and Nigeria can be prevented. This will be done by trying to........

Abstract: Nations sought the attainment of distinct objectives in the process of governing their entities; some of which they attain on their own, while co-operating with other international actors (states and non-state actors like individuals and INGOs) to meet the more difficult goals. All the decisions, actions and inactions of nations involving the cooperation with or support from other entities transcending their borders to solve pending national and regional issues fall within the ambience of foreign policy. Seen as calculated, goal-oriented, and purposive activities altering or creating a condition outside the sovereign boundaries to gain national advantages, usually define vis-à-vis national interest, foreign policy has serious implication for nation‟s international image. The study examines........
