Knowledge deficiencies and ignorance content relating to critical physical conditions of earth in glacial-interglacial cycles are analyzed from the point of view of whether human societies are capable of adapting and dealing with radical climate change in distant future. Amplified Milankovitch theory and canopied earth theory of glacial-interglacial cycles provide conflicting signals, one seeing the current interglacial lengthened by human-induced climate change giving the human societies ample time to prepare for the next glacial and the other seeing the arrival of the next glacial to be independent of human activities and thus posing a supreme risk to unprepared human societies. Foundational analysis indicates little difference between the ancient and modern humans reacting to glacial-interglacial cycles. Both, preoccupied with daily requirements of life fail to prepare to address their knowledge deficiencies of global physical conditions and thus expose individuals and societies to immense risk without adaptive possibilities.

Censorship has been prevalent through time in various forms, at different historical periods all over the world. It is negatively perceived, and it is considered to undermine democracy and violate human rights. As a rule, it is a feature that characterises conservative societies, totalitarian regimes, as well as individuals with ideological preconceptions. The areas mostly affected by it include freedom of expression and free movement of ideas. Governments try to ward themselves against this phenomenon in various manners, in particular by establishing laws that protect human goods and moral values, as those have been shaped from the Age of Enlightenment onwards. However, in recent years, in the midst of the rapid dissemination of technology and the swift development of social media, a tendency has emerged consisting in trying to influence the unsuspecting public opinion and resulting in excluding from the public sphere opinions which are not pleasant to part of the media users, often serving “external” interests. Therefore, the online medium, free par excellence and offering, in principle, the possibility to everyone to publicly and courageously express their opinions, hinders and becomes an obstacle to the dissemination of “another” opinion, in spite of this dissemination being the ultimate intellectual feature of contemporary societies. This type of censorship has now been included in the long list of the many aspects of the phenomenon seen to this day.

Drawing on the facts that were coming from survivors and victims of domestic violence, sexual assaults and child abuse in Jordan and out of the challenges that social and legal personnel used to encounter while dealing with such cases, a holistic approach of practice was a crucial need. The Family Protection Department is a police department that was established to achieve this purpose. FPD today is one of the pioneering bodies in the MENA region that handles cases of gender-based violence, sexual assaults, domestic violence and child abuse in a one-stop service. This encourages people, who describe privacy and honor as deep values that shape their society, to report incidents of abuse since FPD fulfills their desire for privacy and confidentiality. This paper aims to shed light on the most important stages of the history of FPD establishment as experienced by myself as a police officer at that time. It also traces the emergence of police social work from the era of founding the Family Protection Department (FPD) of the Directorate of the Public Security in Jordan till 2019. The paper examines the most significant governmental and none governmental initiatives that have provided support for forensic social workers to reach out to at-risk children, abused children, and Domestic Violence clients. This paper also discusses the role of forensic social work in Jordan in advocating for the social service needs of abused children, those at risk of neglect and abuse, their families as well as of perpetrators.

This research aims to achieve an analytical study on the experience of Bahraini women in the international public relations and protocol sector. The research raises several questions regarding the experience of Bahraini women in this field and the opportunities and challenges facing the work of Bahraini women. This study uses both qualitative and quantitative approaches in analyzing the experience of Bahraini women in the international public relations and protocol sector, an area that has not been addressed in previous research. This research aims to fill the gap in the Arab Gulf research by analyzing the experience of Bahraini women in the international public relations and protocol sector through distributing a questionnaire to a purposive sample consisting of 100 male and female workers in the departments of international public relations and protocol with a response rate of 53%. In addition, the researcher conducted open interviews with a purposeful sample of 12 female employees in senior and middle management positions in international public relations departments and ceremonies in government institutions in the Kingdom of Bahrain using the snowball sample. The research finds that 50% of the respondents indicated that there are no clear roles for women's work in the protocol sector in Bahrain, and 26% of respondents said that they do not know. Besides, 62.3% of respondents considered the importance of combining practical skills and academic qualifications when working in the protocol sector. Moreover, 25.5% of the respondents believe that Bahraini culture has an impact on the work of Bahraini women in the protocol sector, while 33.3% of the respondents believe that Bahraini culture has some impact on the work of Bahraini women in the protocol sector. While 79.2% of the respondents believe that there is no difference between women and men in the opportunities they have achieved in the international public relations and protocol sector, and 70.7% of the respondents believe that gender has not affected the challenges facing the workers in the protocol sector. Furthermore, the study found that Bahraini women have promising opportunities to develop their work in the international public relations and protocol sector because of the great support women receive from the Supreme Council for Women, led by Her Royal Highness Princess Sheikha Sabeeka bint Ibrahim Al Khalifa, the wife of the King of Bahrain, and the high percentage of women education and specialization in communication and media sciences. The study highlighted the major societal, institutional and personal challenges facing Bahraini women in the international public relations and protocol departments. The study recommends strengthening the role of institutions and media in promoting a new community culture that emphasizes the growing role of women in international public relations and ceremonies, in addition to encouraging and supporting research in this sector.

The objectives of this study are to determine the criteria of the halls site selection according to conditions approved by the Ministry of Municipality and then evaluate the current distribution of the services of the halls in Jeddah City and analyze the appropriateness of this distribution to serve the population of Jeddah using spatial statistical methods by GIS program. The results revealed that the distribution of the banquet halls is clustered and the general trend of distribution of the banquet halls extends from the northeast to the southeast. The indicators of the spatial evaluation revealed that all the halls do not offer their services as required, as there are large areas within the city do not reach the services due to poor spatial distribution and their location do not meet the criteria approved by the Ministry of Municipality. 53% of the hall sites do not match the first condition, which states that the location of the hall should be on the intersection of two streets (one main). 75% of the hall sites match the second condition that the distance between the project site and the nearest hospital is less than 500 meters and 61% with the criterion of distance from mosques and places of worship should not be less than 250 meters. On other hand, more than 95% of hall sites correspond positively to the requirement distances from the gas selling places and 50% of hall sites correspond negatively from other wedding halls.

This research aims to know the methods of media treatment of political issues in investigative television programs, based on the survey method, and the method of analyzing the content of a sample of the episodes of the investigative television program (what is hidden) on the screen of Al- Jazeera. The results revealed that the category of specialized experts ranked first Among the sources that rely on these programs (41.9%), the category of documents and official books came in second place (18%), and the category of eyewitness came from people who give information about the events that witnessed the third place (14.5%). The results of the analysis also showed that the highest percentage of meanings and ideas included in the program's episodes (what is hidden is greater), meanings that involve the values of violence (47.4%), while the meanings of international terrorism (25%), and the meanings of the conflict ranked Third (11.5%). The results of the research showed a clear bias to one party at the expense of the other during the presentation of political issues, and in the light of the findings of the research the researcher has made a number of recommendations, the most important of which are: Increasing the effectiveness of investigative television programs, by increasing the time allocated to them. Supporting the staff working in these programs financially and morally, as well as allowing them to participate in training courses organized by Arab and international networks specialized in investigative journalism. Always ensure that the content of these programs is far from bias and imbalance, whether in the presentation of information or in the selection of personalities and sources, and that they have the following features: Presentation of divergent views (opinion and other opinion) within the framework of objectivity and address issues from different angles.

The present study examined the problematic relationship between democracy and the system of government in Islam, whereby considering that the concept of democracy represents a conceptually fundamental dilemma in Islamic political thought due to the link between this concept and secularism, and to the difference of opinion and diligence about it, and as a result of the expansion of the intellectual perspective of Islam as a religion without a state. This study found that there is a great degree - though not comprehensive - in the democratic conception covered by the Islamic political heritage through the inclusion of this heritage on the main dimensions of the theory of democracy in the contemporary sense; these dimensions are social contract, allegiance, Shura, human rights and the separation between the authorities. On the other hand, the study found that there are a number of religious, political, cultural and tribal factors that blended together and led to the exclusion of democracy as an explicit concept in the sources of Islamic political heritage despite the latter's coverage of the dimensions of democracy.

This study is part of the rehabilitation and enhancement of the Taouiala palace of the Laghouat in the Sahara desert of Algeria, addressing its various historical and artistic values. In this research, we focused on Abzar, the most important features of housing, particularly as regards the type of construction and local materials used in construction, trying to minimize even a small definition of the heritage, customs and social fabric of the region. On the other hand, this palace has not been spared a set of damage factors which have masked its true natural and human image, as well as biological and chemical in a direct and indirect way, leaving and saw its remarkable effects in the form of scattered ruins disappear and disappear. That is why we must propose a set of measures to preserve and preserve it, to remain a witness and an archaeological heritage throughout the history and past of a generation that has made its children an archaeological artistic value and a tourist destination that abounds with people and the country in general.
