Artur Wejkszner

Przegląd Politologiczny > 2016 > 4 > 77-92

W artykule zwrócono uwagę na cztery istotne kwestie: istotę i najważniejsze cechy tzw. dżihadystycznych protopaństw, przegląd wcześniejszych i obecnych dżihadystycznych emiratów, historię Państwa Islamskiego (nazwa ta może być rozumiana dwojako: jako organizacja dżihadystyczna i protopaństwo kontrolujące terytorium), oraz najbliższą przyszłość nowego dżihadystycznego protopaństwa.

Paulina Guzik

Studia Socialia Cracoviensia > 2015 > 2(13) > 53-70

Współczesne ludobójstwo wyznawców Chrystusa na terenie Iraku i Syrii. Terytoria dzisiejszego Iraku, niegdyś Mezopotamii, od pierwszych wieków zamieszkiwane były przez chrześcijan.

Journal of Petroleum Geology > 44 > 1 > 69 - 96

The Silurian Akkas Formation has been reported and described only in the subsurface of western Iraq. The formation is divided into the lower Hoseiba Member, which contains two high‐TOC “hot” shale intervals that together are around 60 m thick, and the overlying Qaim Member that is composed of lower‐TOC “cold” shales. This study investigates the source rock potential of Akkas Formation shales from...

Ali I. Al‐Juboury, Salim H. Hussain, Tom McCann, Thamer A. Aghwan

Geological Journal > 55 > 12 > 7977 - 7997

Detailed high magnification scanning electron microscopic (SEM) study supported by petrographic, mineralogical, and geochemical (major and trace element) analysis of the Gercus Formation clastics (sandstones and mudstones) from northern Iraq shows that the main authigenic components are carbonate (dolomite and calcite), clay and haematite minerals with rare quartz, feldspar, and gypsum. The carbonates...

Genetic variants in IL4RA, IL6, and IL12B genes and susceptibility to hepatitis B and C virus infections among Iraqi patients

Osama B. Al‐Saffar, Ali H. Ad'hiah

Journal of Medical Virology > 92 > 12 > 3448 - 3458

Hepatitis B and C viruses (HBV and HCV) are common causative pathogens of viral hepatitis. Progression of both infections is determined by virus‐ and host‐related factors. Cytokines are important host genetic factors that may have a predisposing role in HBV and HCV infections. This case‐control study evaluated the genetic association of IL4RA₊₁₉₀₂ (rs1801275), IL6₋₁₇₄ (rs1800795), IL6₋₅₉₇ (rs1800797),...

Power‐Sharing in Deeply Divided Societies: Consociationalism and Sectarian Authoritarianism

Paul Dixon

Studies in Ethnicity and Nationalism > 20 > 2 > 117 - 127

Consociationalists have traditionally embraced sectarian authoritarianism combined with a very limited form of democracy as the only democratic way of managing plural conflicts. New Generation consociationalists, by contrast, believe their theory is compatible with opposing sectarian authoritarianism in places like Iraq and the Lebanon. Traditional consociationalists have tended to claim that all...

Analysis of the convective available potential energy by precipitation over Iraq using ECMWF data for the period of 1989–2018

Osama T. Al-Taai, Zainab M. Abbood

Przegląd Naukowy Inżynieria i Kształtowanie Środowiska > 2020 > Vol. 29, No. 2 > 196--211

The Convective Available Potential Energy (CAPE) represents the amount of energy for a sample of air. The sample departs vertically within the atmosphere and through these values the potential energy to predict the extreme weather conditions such as storms, hurricanes, lightning and thunder. Data are taken by CAPE, convective precipitation (Cp) and total precipitation (Tp) from satellites recorded...

Karol Jr. Sorby

Asian and African Studies > 2020 > 29 > 1 > 42 – 60

Tribal grievances in Iraq had mostly been triggered by glaring injustice connected with the land and irrigation rights of particular tribes. However, some of the issues related to the grievances of the Shīca as a whole. The sheikhs also drew up a petition asking the king to dismiss the Prime Minister cAlī Jawdat al-Ayyūbī and to dissolve parliament. When this produced no result, direct action followed...
