But their speech also carries, on the other hand, a note of bitterness, as they usually lament the lack of recognition of their role- as if they do not have a significant impact on the reality of things, and they are not an effective element in influencing political decisions or public opinion.<\/p>\n<p>The question here remains: What is the self-supporting basis of the Arab intellectual in his cultural heritage when he claims a role for himself or when he aspires to it? For whom was the scientific power and in whose name? What were its limits? And what are the mechanisms for regulating the relationship between the two authorities, the scientific and the political?<\/p>\n<p>Arab writers wasted a lot of time when they ignored the issue of democracy or drowned it in things that were not part of it, or when they gave priority to other slogans such as unity, socialism and fighting imperialism, which are goals that naturally still exist if the matter means building an integrated and liberated Arab entity. However, our committed writers have become attached to everything except that which guarantees the practice of the &#8220;profession&#8221; of writing, which is democracy based on personal and public freedoms.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Center for Arab Unity Studies published the fifth edition of the book Cultural Power and Political Power by Dr. [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":123,"featured_media":145910,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[1187,1841],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-120677","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-culture","product_cat-philosophy","first","instock","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
