Dr. Hussein AlAhmad, an academician at the Faculty of Graduate Studies at the Arab American University, has launched a new book titled “Consolidating Tyranny: The Political Echo in Arab Satellite News Media,” within the framework of academic books that address Arab conflicts and the media’s impact on them.
In his book, Dr. AlAhmad presents a critical vision of how Arab satellite media, funded by the governments of rich countries that aspire to play a political role, influences the formation of the political scene, especially in non-democratic environments such as the Palestinian context and the Arab societies that suffer from internal conflicts.
The Arab American University and the Palestinian National Library signed a cooperation agreement for the sake of exchanging cultural and scientific experiences and preserving the Palestinian cultural heritage.
The agreement was signed by Prof. Dr. Ali Zedan Abu Zuhri, President of the University, and Mr. Issa Qaraqe, Head of the Palestinian National Library, on the University campus in Ramallah, with the presence of officials from both parties.
The Arab American University Library participated in the Cairo International Book Fair from 1/27/2023 to 2/2/2023, which was held in Cairo. The university is represented by Mr. Hasan Al-Said, Director of the University Library. Many participating Arab and foreign publishing houses were present in the gallery.
A group of Arabic and foreign books that serve the educational and research process at the university were selected, especially the newly launched disciplines at the university. They were reinforced with modern supporting books and references for these disciplines. We have also obtained a set of valuable donations from the publications of the Arab Organization for Administrative Development and a free electronic database of journals in the organization, especially human resources and management and economic journals in general.
