Who is a "true" Jordanian? Who is a "true" Bedouin? These questions, according to Layne, are examples of a kind of pigeonholing that has distorted the reality of Jordanian national politics. In developing an alternate approach, she shows that the fluid social identities of Jordan emerge from an ongoing dialogue among tribespeople, members of the intelligentsia, Hashemite rulers, and Western social scientists. Many commentators on social identity in the Middle East limit their studies to the village level, but Layne's goal is to discover how the identity-building processes of the locality and of the nation condition each other. She finds that the tribes create their own cultural "homes" through a dialogue with official nationalist rhetoric and Jordanian urbanites, while King Hussein, in turn, maintains the idea of the "homeland" in ways that are powerfully influenced by the tribespeople. The identities so formed resemble the shifting, irregular shapes of postmodernist land-scapes--but Hussein and the Jordanian people are also beginning to use a classically modernist linear narrative to describe themselves. Layne maintains, however, that even with this change Jordanian identities will remain resistant to all-or-nothing descriptions. 606 $aBedouins$zJordan$xEthnic identity 607 $aJordan$xSocial life and customs 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aBedouins$xEthnic identity. 676 $a956.95/004927 700 $aLayne$b Linda L$0890358 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454844703321 996 $aHome and homeland$92465010 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03901nam 2200865z- 450 001 9910557307603321 005 20210501 035 $a(CKB)5400000000042780 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/69419 035 $a(oapen)doab69419 035 $a(EXLCZ)995400000000042780 100 $a20202105d2020 |y 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurmn|---annan 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aMathematical Physics II 210 $aBasel, Switzerland$cMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute$d2020 215 $a1 online resource (182 p.) 311 08$a3-03943-495-0 311 08$a3-03943-496-9 330 $aThe charm of Mathematical Physics resides in the conceptual difficulty of understanding why the language of Mathematics is so appropriate to formulate the laws of Physics and to make precise predictions. Citing Eugene Wigner, this "unreasonable appropriateness of Mathematics in the Natural Sciences" emerged soon at the beginning of the scientific thought and was splendidly depicted by the words of Galileo: "The grand book, the Universe, is written in the language of Mathematics." In this marriage, what Bertrand Russell called the supreme beauty, cold and austere, of Mathematics complements the supreme beauty, warm and engaging, of Physics. This book, which consists of nine articles, gives a flavor of these beauties and covers an ample range of mathematical subjects that play a relevant role in the study of physics and engineering. This range includes the study of free probability measures associated with p-adic number fields, non-commutative measures of quantum discord, non-linear Schro?dinger equation analysis, spectral operators related to holomorphic extensions of series expansions, Gibbs phenomenon, deformed wave equation analysis, and optimization methods in the numerical study of material properties. 606 $aMathematics and Science$2bicssc 606 $aResearch and information: general$2bicssc 610 $aB-splines 610 $aBanach *-probability spaces 610 $abearing capacity 610 $acrack growth behavior 610 $adeformed wave equation 610 $adual tight framelets 610 $adynamic models 610 $afailure probability 610 $aFCM fuel 610 $aFourier-Legendre expansion 610 $afree probability 610 $ageneralized Fourier transform 610 $aGibbs phenomenon 610 $aholomorphic extension 610 $aHuygens' principle 610 $ainitial-boundary value problem 610 $aintersecting flaws 610 $amNLS equation 610 $anon-commutativity measure 610 $anon-Euclidean Fourier transform 610 $aoblique extension principle 610 $aoptimization 610 $ap-adic number fields 610 $aparticle model 610 $aparticle swarm optimization 610 $aprimes 610 $aprolongation structure 610 $aPSO 610 $aquantum discord 610 $aquasi-affine 610 $areinforced concrete 610 $arepresentation of ??(2,?) 610 $aretaining wall 610 $aRiemann-Hilbert problem 610 $asemicircular elements 610 $ashift-invariant system 610 $asilicon carbide 610 $aspherical Laplace transform 610 $athermal-mechanical performance 610 $atruncated linear functionals 610 $auniaxial compression 610 $aweighted-semicircular elements 615 7$aMathematics and Science 615 7$aResearch and information: general 700 $aDe Micheli$b Enrico$4edt$01289207 702 $aDe Micheli$b Enrico$4oth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910557307603321 996 $aMathematical Physics II$93021086 997 $aUNINA
