It is bordered by Saudi Arabia to the south and Iraq to the north. The country has a population of around 4.3 million people, of which 1.3 million are Kuwaiti citizens and the rest are expatriates. Arabic is the official language and Islam is the predominant religion of the country. The country has a thriving oil-based economy with oil reserves accounting for nearly half of the country's GDP. Kuwait is known for being a rich and prosperous country, with one of the highest per capita incomes in the world. The country has made great strides in modernizing its infrastructure and developing its human capital. Kuwait has its own distinct culture and history, including its role in the Gulf War in 1990-1991, and is known for its cuisine, traditional dress, and hospitality. Kuwait has a hot and dry climate, with temperatures often exceeding 40°C during the summer months. The architecture in Kuwait is a mix of traditional Islamic styles and modern high-rise buildings. Some of the most important landmarks in the country include the Kuwait Towers, the Grand Mosque, the National Museum, and the Liberation Tower. Kuwait is also home to several shopping malls, which are popular destinations for locals and tourists alike. The country is relatively small, and most attractions and destinations are easily accessible by car. In recent years, the country has seen increasing interest from tourists and is actively working to promote itself as a tourist destination.
Download or read book E Learning in the Middle East and North Africa MENA Region written by Alan S. Weber and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last decade, due to factors of ICT infrastructural and broadband maturation, rising levels of educational attainment and computer literacy, and diversification strategies, e-learning has exploded in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. However, significant barriers remain in the region’s e-learning development: lack of research on outcomes and effectiveness, paucity of Arabic language learning objects, monopolies and high cost of telecommunications, cultural taboos, accreditation, censorship, and teacher training. This unique volume is the first comprehensive effort to describe the history, development, and current state of e-learning in each of the 20 MENA countries from Algeria to Yemen. Each entry is expertly written by a specialist who is acutely familiar with the state of e-learning in their respective country, and concludes with a bibliography of key reports, peer-reviewed books and articles, and web resources. E-Learning in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) proves itself as a vital compendium for a wide readership that includes academics and students, transnational program directors, international education experts, MENA government departments, commercial vendors and investors, and ICT development and regulatory agencies involved in e-learning in the Middle East.

Download or read book The History of Kuwait written by Michael S. Casey and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2007-08-30 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tiny country of Kuwait grabbed the world's attention during the Gulf War, during which its natural petroleum resource became the envy of its neighboring country of Iraq. But Kuwait's history goes back long before any oil was discovered, back to Mesopotamian settlements as early as 3000 BCE. Ideal for high school students as well as general readers, History of Kuwait offers a comprehensive look at how such a small country could, essentially, rule the world with just one natural resource. From sheikhdom to British protectorate to independence to invasion, Kuwait's history is long and rich with culture. Michael S. Casey demonstrates how this Middle Eastern gem has grown throughout the centuries.
Download or read book Learned in the Trenches written by Maria Angela Capello and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shares the learnings and perspectives of two pioneer women who waded the many challenges posed by multiculturalism and gender in one of the corporate environments more rigid and traditional in the business world: the energy sector in the Middle East. How they managed to create a growth space for themselves and their teams is a story of professional and personal tenacity, shaping a privileged perspective that enabled them to understand the root causes of barriers, as well as envision plausible solutions. They propose in the book not only their vision, but a remarkable collection of unfiltered interviews to influential leaders in the energy sector, to complete a vision of what is key to achieve success when leading or consulting in a corporate environment. The book offers a compilation of very personal approaches to professionalism, resilience, work, and ultimately, success, from within and outside the ranks of highly regarded corporations in the energy sector. The ultimate aim is that of triggering a self-reflection in the readers, grounded on the learnings and perspectives of those who made it to the highest roles of one of the less understood business environments.
Download or read book Pre School Education in the Arab World written by Huda Nashif and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-23 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The organized play of the pre-school child with a group of peers in an educational atmosphere is now recognised as an important element in child development. The Arab states of the Gulf, as indeed most of the emerging countries, place special emphasis on the education of the young generation and are therefore particularly interested in the creation of pre-school education. This book, first published in 1985, highlights the interplay in Kuwait of the traditional Islamic / Arab approach to education with the more Western influenced ideas on the education of the pre-school child.

Download or read book The Diffusion of Law written by Sue Farran and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-09 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In considering diffusion from a global perspective, this book provides timely new insights into its application in a variety of fields and at many levels of both legal and non-legal orderings. This collection contributes to the wider theoretical debate concerning the movement of law and legal norms by engaging with concrete examples of legal diffusion, in jurisdictions as diverse as Albania, the Czech Republic, Poland and Kuwait. These examples, taken together, provide a comprehensive illustration of the theoretical debates concerning the diffusion of laws and norms in terms of both process and form. This international, multi-disciplinary and multi-methodological volume brings together scholars from law and social science with experience in mixed and hybrid jurisdictions, and advances the conversation about legal and normative diffusion across the academy. It represents a robust challenge to many preconceived ideas about legal movement and, as such, will be of interest to academics and students working in the fields of Law, Sociology, Anthropology, Political Science, Legal Education and comparative method.
Download or read book Gender and Politics in Kuwait written by Meshal Al-Sabah and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-07-11 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The role of women in politics in the Gulf is a much-debated and often little-understood subject in the West. In Gender and Politics in Kuwait the author sheds new light on the struggle of Kuwaiti women for political participation, examining both the positions women hold in society and politics, and the discourses surrounding feminism and civil rights. He charts the history of women and their contribution to the Kuwaiti state, from independence and the writing of the constitution in the 1960s, through the Iraqi occupation in 1990, to the struggle for the right to vote and stand for election in the twenty-first century. Drawing on the experiences of women in a range of roles in Kuwaiti society, including government, education, employment, civil society and the media, this is a comprehensive examination of gender politics and its impact in the Middle East.
