'Unlike in the case of verbal communication, prior to submitting a written work for publication authors have the opportunity to edit and revise it multiple times. They can revisit it again and again in order to enhance its content and polish its language. Once they submit their ‘final’ draft to a journal, editors and reviewers evaluate and assess its merit and suitability. If a manuscript is accepted, they help further revise, refine, and make it ready for production. In addition to this editorial concern for the quality of research, in this essay I shall explore the questions of authorship, authorship fraud, and other related concerns. The discussion here is primarily driven to stress the importance of maintaining ethical standards in publishing, especially those related to authorship credit.' (Publication summary)

Promoting Identity and a Sense of Belonging : An Ecocritical Reading of Randa Abdel-Fattah’s Where the Streets Had a Name, Muneera Muftah , single work criticism
'This paper examines Randa Abdel-Fattah’s novel entitled Where the Street Had a Name (2008).The main goal is to examine how interacting with ecology, culture, and nature in the contexts of the host land and the homeland as depicted in the novel promotes identity and a sense of belonging. It also aims at analyzing the links between land and identity from an ecocritical perspective and how Palestinians’ land and identity are psychologically, mentally, and physically interconnected. Through using natural forms of Palestine, humans’ and non-humans’ interconnectedness and the symbol of the iconic jar of homeland soil and its possibilities for revitalising Hayaat’s identity, Abdel-Fattah attempts to reveal her ecological connection to the land of her origin and how this tight connection promotes identity and shapes the sense of belonging. This paper reveals that it is impossible to separate Palestinians from their homeland because the land is part of their identity. Therefore, the current debate provides new perspectives on how to open a new horizon for identity strengthening in Abdel-Fattah’s and other Muslim diasporic writers’ works.' (Publication abstract)
