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 present paper is devoted to studying the imitation of some Quran phrases and words in the tale of "The Leprous Girl". The paper aims at identifying the common ground between the tale and some great stories related in the verses of the holy Quran, and comparing the original work with the present translation. First, we translated the tale from Russian into Arabic so as to be tackled in study, and then an identification of the commonalities between this tale and the Quran wording is made. It was found that texting is clear in the original text of the tale, hence the need for this paper. By studying the texts and phrases employed by the writer, we observe that the text is influenced by the Quranic stories whose effects have been reflecte

Service level agreements (SLAs) are understandings marked between a cloud service providers and others, for example, a service user, intermediary operator, or observing operators. Since cloud computing is an ongoing technology giving numerous services to basic business applications and adaptable systems to manage online agreements are significant. SLA maintains the quality-of-service to the cloud user. If service provider fails to maintain the required service SLA is considered to be SLA violated. The main aim is to minimize the SLA violations for maintain the QoS of their cloud users. In this res

The samples were taken by Transport media at a rate of three replicates of each place isolated from samples from different places within the hospital (waste, baths, the sick beds, corridors and room floors) for the purpose of isolating and diagnosing the fungus on the Czapeck Dox Agar media. It was noticed that the spread rate of fungus Aspergillus was 70% compared to other species that have emerged during the isolation process of the Sabouraud's Dextrose Agar media. The species A.niger (56.25%) was considered the most common type of fungus visible during the isolation process of the Imam Ali Hospit

Laser is used in ophthalmic practice for photocoagulation and photodisruption. The purpose of this study is to evaluate changes in immunological ,hematological and biochemical values after treatment of diabetic retinopathy by laser. Blood samples from 10 patients suffering from diabetic retinopathy were taken before and after laser treatment to coagulate retina to prevent leakage and hemorraghe to avoid deterioration of vision.In group one (4 patients = 40%), blood tests were done one day after treatment. In group two (6 patients =60%) tests were done 7 days after treatment with laser. The study showed no clear changes in

The research adopted the descriptive approach, and a questionnaire was applied to a random sample of (370) male and female teachers in governmental and private general education schools in the Al-Jouf region, Saudi Arabia. The results of the research concluded that the reality of future teachers' attitudes towards cloud computing in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia from their point of view is very high and that most areas of using computing are in the field of assessment, then teaching, and activities. The challenges of future teachers' attitudes toward cloud computing are recorded at a high level, parti

Electrical magnate was designed and constructed, the optimum Magnetic flux and the effect of time on the physical properties of the alkaline (magnetic water) produced from the bottled drinking water [the total dissolved solids (TDS) or the electrical conductivity, and pH] were studied, to simulate ZamZam water in Mekka Saudi Arabia. Also, the efficiency of magnetic field from this designed electrical magnate in decreasing the TDS of sea water (of 1500 ppm NaCl Content), to convert it to water suitable for irrigation (TDS<1000 ppm) was investigated in this work.The results show that the magnetic flux from our designed electrical magnate in the range of (0.013- 0.08) Tesla and 30 minut

The large number of explanations that are usually used to illustrate the response led to the emergence of the problem of linear multiplicity between the explanatory variables that make estimating the parameters of the model not accurate.

Pomegranate extract (PPE) has recently been taken into consideration due to its pharmacological effects especially those associated with renal diseases. Thus, this study aims to investigate the possible protective effect of PPE against ethephon-induced nephrotoxicity in rats. In this study four groups of adult male rats were divided into control group, PPE 400 mg/kg group, Ethephon 250 mg/kg group, and finally, PPE + Ethephon group (treated with the same dose of PPE group and Ethephon group). In the current study, kidney function parameters (KIM-1, creatin
