Abstract

In January 2020, President Donald Trump introduced the Abraham Accords, often hailed as the deal of the century. Many criticized the proposal for focusing solely on U.S. diplomatic peace efforts in the Middle East and shifting the core issue from the Israeli-Palestinian conflict to the normalization of Arab-Israeli relations. Despite its controversies, the Abraham Accords normalized relations between Israel and the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, potentially reshaping the "New Middle East" differently. This article explains the Abraham Accords, which primarily involve several Arab countries recognizing Israel's sovereignty and their willingness to establish full diplomatic relations with the Jewish state. The researcher draws two key conclusions by reviewing the process, content, atmosphere, and responses to the agreement. First, although the agreement seemed sudden, its achi­e­vement involved a complex, lengthy, and not entirely planned process. Second, Arab countries pursued this option not only out of solidarity with Palestine or pressure from their patron, the United States, but also to achieve various strategic interests—political, military, economic, and others—thereby effectively sidelining the Pales ti nian issue.

Abstract

Maulid al-Dība'i is one of the most popular religious literary texts in the Islamic tradition, especially among traditional Sunni Muslims in Indonesia. Recently, controversy has emerged regarding the sectarian affiliation of its author, Al-Dība'i, who is accused of being a Zaidiyah Shiite due to his praise of the Ahlul Bait without mentioning the main companions. This debate has prompted differing responses concerning the sectarian content of the text. This study applies Lucien Goldmann's genetic structuralism approach to analyze Maulid al-Dība'i by examining both its internal textual structure and its socio-historical context. Using qualitative interpretive, historical, and textual methods, the research analyzes a controversial poem to trace the author's ideological position. The findings indicate that the text reflects the inclusive and cosmopolitan character of Zabid society, marked by dynamic Sufi traditions and complex inter-school relations. Consequently, this study offers a more balanced understanding of Maulid al-Dība'i as a product of Islamic culture shaped by historical and spiritual struggles.

Abstract

Honor killing refers to the murder of a family member (usually female) who have brought shame or dishonor upon the family. This article explores how honor killing is discussed in Turkey, with particular attention to how the practice is frequently linked to the Kurdish ethnic minority. Drawing on Robert Entman’s framing theory and supported by postcolonial critique, the study analyzes twelve news reports published between 2016 and 2023 in three major Turkish outlets. The analysis indicates that Turkish media and state discourse (manifested in legal system) repeatedly frame honor killing in ways that marginalize and stigmatize Kurds. By attaching the practice to Kurdish identity, these discourses normalize an image of Kurds as ‘backward’ and Turks as modern, reproducing orientalist binaries of tradition versus civilization. Building on Spivak’s concept of the subaltern, the article argues that Kurdish women who always become the victims of honor killing are rendered voiceless and are instrumentalized as symbolic evidence of Kurdish ‘backwardness’. In this framing, women’s suffering becomes a rhetorical device that helps justify state authority and domination over particular minorities.
