Abstract

The status of Arab workers the West Bank and Gaza Strip has become one of the most salient social problems facing Israeli society. Noncitizen Arabs in Israel occupy the lowest, most undesirable positions and are paid significantly less than Israeli citizens. The handicaps they suffer are similar in many respects to those experienced by migrant laborers in Western Europe in the 1950s and 1960s, by seasonal Mexican workers in the United States, and by temporary African workers in South Africa.

Abstract

Rashīd al-Dīn Hamadānī's (d. 718/1319) Jāmiʿ al-tawārīkh has been described by many as the first world history ever. Composed in Persian for the Mongol Il-khans Ghāzān (r. 1295-1304) and Öljeitü (Uljāytu, r. 1304-16), its aim was to set out the history and condition of the Mongol people, conquerors of the world (part one), followed by a description of the other peoples and nations of the world and their histories (part two). Given its unprecedented scope, Rashīd, vizier to both rulers, mobilized a whole team of specialists, informants, and collaborators to assist him in his task. Making use of written and oral sources, the part on the Mongols especially is a key source on the emergence and organisation of the Mongol empire, while the second part constitutes the first attempt ever at writing a history of the world. The section published here treats of India, Sind, and Kashmir.

Abstract

Madrid naît au milieu du IXe siècle, fruit de la volonté du prince omeyyade de Cordoue Muḥammad Ier : vers 860, l'émir décide de fonder une fortification aux confins septentrionaux de son État sous le nom de Mağrīṭ « là où l'eau abonde ». Mağrīṭ fut une petite ville fortifiée de quatre hectares, auxquels s'ajoutaient des noyaux d'habitat ouverts et dispersés autour de l'enceinte. Elle était peuplée d'artisans, célèbres pour leur travail de l'argile, de paysans, mais aussi de savants et de fonctionnaires, le gouverneur et le cadi, qui représentaient la cour omeyyade et veillaient à la bonne marche des affaires urbaines. Après la conquête de Mağrīṭ par les Castillans en 1085, la ville conserve de ses origines islamiques son nom, qui devient Magerit, puis Madrid, et elle maintient le principal axe de circulation de la petite ville omeyyade, la grand'rue de Mağrīṭ formant aujourd'hui la partie finale de la Calle Mayor madrilène. Au bout de celle-ci, se dresse la cathédrale de la Almudena, dont le nom perpétue la mémoire d'un terme arabe, al-mudayna, la citadelle. À partir des sources textuelles et archéologiques, cet ouvrage s'efforce de suivre le chemin parcouru par Mağrīṭ depuis sa fondation jusqu'à nos jours : pour comprendre la genèse de la ville, il faut revenir vers le site qui l'accueille, le nom qu'elle reçoit et l'homme qui décide de la faire édifier. Pour saisir le fonctionnement de la ville, il faut se tourner vers ses territoires, nourricier et administratif, et vers les espaces avec lesquels elle est en contact, celui du Même et celui de l'Autre. L'histoire de Mağrīṭ au-delà du XIe siècle est celle des mudéjars et des morisques, celle d'un vif intérêt autour des origines de la ville choisie par Philippe II pour être la résidence de sa cour, celle d'un legs islamique dont la reconnaissance patrimoniale peine encore parfois, en ce début de XXIe siècle, à se faire entendre.
