التعددية الثقافية هي مفهوم يتعلق بالمجتمعات التي تضم ثقافات عده، أو العالم الذي يتضمن ثقافات متنوعة؛ فالتعددية هي التنوع الثقافي والفكري؛ وبالتالي هي عنصر إثراء للإنسانية وأساس لوجودها؛ فالتعددية الثقافية تتضمن القبول بالثقافات والافكار الانسانية كلها، وإفساح المجال أمامها للمشاركة في بنا ء الثقافة والفكر العالمي؛ وهكذا فإنها تتمثل في التسامح مع الثقافات والافكار المختلفة الاعتراف بالهويات والخصوصيات والاختلافات بدلا من التهميش والاقصاء والهيمنة . يهدف البحث إلى تسليط الضوء على نظرية التعددية الثقافية، والتعرف على أهميتها بالنسبة للمجتمعات الانسانية، وأسباب ظهورها ودورها في تحقيق الوحدة للمجتمعات بعيدا عن القسر والتهميش والاقصاء والهيمنة؛ لأن التعددية الثقافية تؤمن بالحق في الاختلاف والتنوع . انطلقت فرضية البحث من فكرة مفادها: إن الامثل يتمثل في السعي إلى صياغة نظرية معاصرة تنتهج منهجا وسطا للتوفيق بين كلا الاتجاهين من منطلق وحدة الدولة لا تقتضي أحادية ثقافة المجتمع، وأن التنوع الثقافي لا يفضي بالضرورة إلى تشظي الدولة وانقسامها؛ وهذا ما تؤكده نظرية التعددية الثقافية . أما منهجية الدراسة؛ فقد استندت إلى توظيف منهجين بهدف تحقيق مبدأ التكامل المنهجي؛ إذ اعتمدنا المنهج التاريخي الذي يقوم على معرفة الماضي لما له من دور في معرفة الحاضر واستشراف المستقبل، كما اعتمدنا منهج تحليل المضمون عن طريق تحليل أفكار "كيمليكا" السياسية بالاعتماد على أهم نصوصه التي تضمنتها أفكاره السياسية . وتوصلت الدراسة إلى أن الدولة المتعددة الثقافات هي الشكل السياسي الجديد الذي يمكن من خلاله تحقيق التكيف مع التنوع والاعتراف بحقوق الجماعات الاقلية وشرعنه المطالبة بها؛ بل هي الشكل الطبيعي للدولة كما يعتقد "كيمليكا"؛ إذ يشير إلى أن ماهية الدولة الطبيعية تغيرت في الفترة المعاصرة؛ سواء في الخطاب الدولي أو في الواقع السياسي؛ فبعد أن كان ينظر إلى الدول ذات الاقليات القومية أو تلك التي تعترف بأشكال من الحكم الذاتي على أنها شواذ ومفارقات تاريخية، عكس الدولة القومية المتجانسة التي كانت تعد النموذج المثالي؛ أصبح ينظر إلى الدول المركزية المتجانسة التي تستمر في إنكار وجود الاقليات؛ مثل: (فرنسا، واليونان، وتركيا، واليابان)؛ إنها هي التي تنطوي على مفارقة تاريخية وتوصف بأنها رعية عاجزة عن التفاعل بإيجابية مع تعقيدات العالم، وبالمقابل ينظر إلى الدول المتعددة الثقافات ذات البناءات الداخلية المعقدة للاعتراف بالأقليات وتمكينها سياسيا واقتصاديا على انها تمثل الشكل الاكثر حداثة أو حتى منظور "ما بعد الحداثة" وإلى الحراك السياسي العرقي على أنه عملية شرعية ملازمة للمجتمع الديمقراطي

The study found highly considerable discrepancies in the interplay between radiation levels and gender in terms of mean Malondialdehyde (MAD), Vitamin D3 (Vit.D3), Triiodothyronine (T3), Thyroxine (T4), and High-Density Lipoprotein (HDL), but not Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH), cholesterol, triglyceride (TG) and Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL). The findings indicated that malondialdehyde is a useful biomarker for assessing oxidative stress in radiographers with exposure to ionizing radiation.
Our study comes up to clarify the role of television in spreading the culture of violence with a child. This study represents one of the important studies that have tried to highlight the impact of these programmes, particularly cartoons, on the child's behaviors, actions and acquired habits.Violence considers a common phenomenon among the people, as the role of the media, particularly TV has a vital role due to its properties, characteristics and its significant impact on different segments and groups in society and in children particularly through exposure to programmes of films.The results of the study have been affected by the rising proportion of females to males, and that the contribution of real life has a big role in the child ac

Twenty water samples were collected from different water regions in Iraq, namely the Dokan Lake, Tigris River, Euphrates River and Najaf Sea, 5 samples from each source. Acanthamoeba was isolated from water samples on NNA and PYG media, using an inverted microscope with an electron microscope to determine their phenotypic features. PCR and

Show MoreIn this research, damping properties for composite materials were evaluated using logarithmic decrement method to study the effect of reinforcements on the damping ratio of the epoxy matrix. Three stages of composites were prepared in this research. The first stage included preparing binary blends of epoxy (EP) and different weight percentages of polysulfide rubber (PSR) (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%). It was found that the weight percentage 5% of polysulfide was the best percentage, which gives the best mechanical properties for the blend matrix. The advantage of this blend matrix is that; it mediates between the brittle properties of epoxy and the flexible properties of a blend matrix with the highest percentage of PSR. The second stage
