After more than two years of intensive preparations, I am pleased to see that the Congress is attended by a remarkable number of very distinguished academics, policy makers and researchers, who represent a wide variety of universities and institutions from 74 countries. The Congress has an impressive scientific program with about 400 academic sessions designed to facilitate exchange and strengthen networking among more than 1.500 participants. I believe Middle East Technical University is a very appropriate venue for the meeting of WOCMES 2014. When our University was established in 1956, part of its mission was to train the young people of Middle Eastern countries, hence the name “Middle East Technical University.” After 58 years, we continue to fulfill this mission and maintain very close ties within the region. Today, the region is still well-represented among our international students and staff members who come from more than 100 countries. True to our name, the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) departments comprise 2/3 of approximately 28,000 students and 2,600 academics in our three campuses. I would like to stress that in the remaining 1/3 of the University, we have a very formidable social sciences component. Indeed, our academics, students, and researchers working in social science fields contribute very significantly to our academic strength, as well as to our national and international reputation. As this Congress exemplifies, our social science departments and centers have been at the forefront of international scientific cooperation and very active in international research collaboration schemes, such as the EU Framework Programmes. I hope our colleagues from other institutions in Turkey and abroad, will find the time and opportunity to learn more about our University during their stay, and that this Congress will lead to further collaborations in the future. Distinguished Participants and Colleagues, In the recent years, and especially in the last several weeks, the Middle East region has been experiencing, once again, major conflicts, fall of governments and regimes, wars, massacres, destruction of communities, and extensive displacement of people. The whole region is in a state of flux, trying to cope with very severe conflicts, assaults, and threats. This Conference, I know, will help us better understand different belief and value systems, and distinct worldviews represented in the region, as well as the reasons for the failure and refusal to accept and cherish diversity and plurality as sources of strength and wealth in our societies. I congratulate all the participants for taking on such crucial and challenging topics. I also congratulate and thank the members of the Organizing Committee, my colleagues at the Political Science and Public Administration Department and Middle East Studies Graduate Program who helped with the preparations, and Turkish Social Sciences Association for their valuable contributions. I wish you all a very productive meeting, and a pleasant stay on our campus and in Turkey. Thank you. Bienvenue de L’honorable Président de L’université Technique du Moyen-Orient Chers Invités et Collègues, C’est un honneur de vous accueillir à l’Université Technique du Moyen-Orient à l’occasion du congrès WOCMES 2014, organisé par notre Département de Science Politique et d’Administration Publique et le Programme d’Etudes Supérieures du Moyen-Orient, en collaboration avec l’Association Turque des Sciences Sociales. Après plus de deux années de préparation intensive, je suis heureux de voir que le Congrès est fréquenté par un nombre remarquable d’éminents universitaires, décideurs et chercheurs, qui représentent une grande variété d’universités et d’institutions de 74 pays différents. Le Congrès dispose d’un programme scientifique impressionnant avec presque de 400 sessions académiques visant à faciliter les échanges et à renforcer les liens entre plus de 1.500 participants. Je crois que l’Université Technique du Moyen-Orient est le lieu approprié pour le congrès du WOCMES 2014. Quand notre Université a été créée en 1956, une partie de sa mission était de former les jeunes des pays du Moyen-Orient, d’où son nom d”Université Technique du Moyen-Orient”. Après ces 58 années, nous continuons à remplir cette mission et à maintenir des liens très étroits dans la région. Aujourd’hui, celle-ci est bien représentée parmi nos étudiants internationaux et les membres de notre personnel qui viennent de plus de 100 pays différents. Fidèle à notre nom, les départements du STEM (Science, Technologie, Ingénierie, Mathématiques) regroupent aux 2/3 environ 28.000 étudiants et 2.600 professeurs sur nos trois campus. Je tiens à préciser que dans le tiers restant, nous avons un élément très important spécialisé en Sciences Sociales. En effet, nos professeurs, étudiants et chercheurs travaillant en sciences sociales contribuent de manière très significative à notre force académique, ainsi qu’à notre réputation nationale et internationale. A l’exemple de ce congrès, nos départements et centres en sciences sociales se sont placés à l’avant-garde de la coopération scientifique internationale, et ont été très actifs dans les programmes de collaboration de recherche internationale tels que les programmes-cadres de l’UE. J’espère que nos collègues des autres institutions de Turquie et à l’étranger, trouveront le temps et les opportunités d’en apprendre davantage sur notre Université au cours de leur séjour, et que ce Congrès conduira à de nouvelles collaborations dans le futur. Chers Participants et Collègues, Dans les dernières années, et en particulier au cours de ces dernières semaines, la région du Moyen-Orient a connu, une fois de plus, des conflits majeurs, des chutes de gouvernements et de régimes, des guerres, des massacres, la destruction de communautés et d’importants déplacements de personnes. Toute la région est dans un état de flux, essayant de faire face à des conflits très graves, des agressions et des menaces. Cette conférence, je sais, nous aidera à mieux comprendre les différents systèmes de croyances, valeurs et visions du monde présentes dans la région, aussi bien que les raisons de l’échec et le refus d’accepter et de chérir la diversité et la pluralité des sources de la force et de la richesse dans nos sociétés. Je félicite tous les participants d’avoir choisis des sujets cruciaux et difficiles. Je félicite et remercie également les membres du Comité d’Organisation, mes collègues du Département de Science Politique et d’Administration Publique et le Programme des Etudes Supérieures au Moyen-Orient qui ont aidé aux préparations, ainsi que l’Association Turque des Sciences Sociales pour sa précieuse contribution. Je vous souhaite, à tous, une réunion très productive, et un agréable séjour sur notre campus et en Turquie. Merci. Message of Welcome from WOCMES 2014 Ankara Message of welcome We, as the local organisers, are honoured to welcome you all to WOCMES 2014, jointly organised by METU Department of Political Science and Public Administration, METU Middle East Studies Graduate Program and, the Turkish Social Sciences Association. It is to be noted that WOCMES 2014 is taking place at a time when the political developments in the region are becoming increasingly worrisome with a huge and unacceptable human cost to millions of people who are forced out of their homes, as the number of displaced people and refugees are steadily rising. Turkey has always been a significant center in the Mediterranean and the Middle East for obvious reasons. And, no doubt, Middle East Technical University (METU) ranked as one of the World’s Top Universities by several ranking institutions offers an excellent environment for such a major event like WOCMES 2014. While Turkish Social Sciences Association (TSSA), established in 1967, has a long pedigree in organizing scientific gatherings with the involvement of national and international participants and with an emphasis on interdisciplinary studies, WOCMES 2014 will be the most important international organization that it has undertaken. Given the fact that this being the fourth one to be organized since the inaugural one back in 2002, it seems that WOCMES is making a tour around the Mediterranean as the second one was in Amman, and the third one in Barcelona. It is apposite that it has been like that since the Mediterranean, with its history of human and cultural exchanges, is a privileged environment for WOCMES to bring together experts from all over the world, to exchange new ideas, to strengthen and build regional and global networks for joint research. We sincerely hope that WOCMES 2014 will also enhance the ways in which the participants will come to terms with differences of opinions among themselves so that the debates they will be engaged will be enlightening as well as bringing a glimmer of hope for the protracted conflicts of the Middle East as a whole. We are also pleased that the WOCMES Award for Outstanding Contribution for Middle Eastern Studies, will this time be received by a former member of our university, Prof. Dr. Suraiya Faroqhi who had worked at METU during 1971-1987. With these thoughts, we wish a very successful and rewarding congress to all the participants. We also hope that they will enjoy the cultural events organized during the course of WOCMES 2014. Prof. Dr. Ayşe Ayata Assoc. Prof. Dr. Galip Yalman Head of Department Political Science & Public Administration METU Chairperson of Turkish Social Sciences Association President of WOCMES 2014 Ankara Assoc. Prof. Dr. Özlem Tür Chairperson of Middle East Studies Graduate Programme METU Message de bienvenue du WOCMES Ankara 2014 Nous sommes honorés en tant que organisateurs locaux de vous accueillir à WOCMES 2014 organise par le Département de Science Politiques et d’Administrations Publique de METU, Programme d’Etudes Supérieurs en Moyen Orient de METU et L’Association Turque des Sciences Sociales. Il est á noter que WOCMES 2014 a lieu dans une période pendant laquelle les développements politiques dans la région deviennent de plus en plus inquiétants avec une grande et inacceptable perte humaine pour des millions de personnes qui sont forcées de quitter leur maison, alors que le nombre de personnes déplacées et des refugies s’élève constamment. La Turquie a toujours été un centre important dans la Méditerranée et le Moyen Orient pour des raisons évidents. Sans doute, L’Université Technique du Moyen Orient (METU), classe parmi les Meilleurs Universités du Monde par plusieurs instituts de classement, offre un environnement excellent pour un évènement considérable comme WOCMES 2014. Bien que L’Association Turque des Sciences Sociales a une longue ascendant sur l’organisation des réunions scientifiques accordant une importances particulière aux études interdisciplinaires avec l’implication des participants nationaux et internationaux, WOCMES 2014 sera l’organisation internationale la plus importante dans laquelle elle s’engage. WOCMES 2014 étant le quatrième Congre organise depuis son inauguration en 2002, il semble que WOCMES fait un circuit autour de la Méditerranée après sa deuxième organisation à Amman et la troisième en Barcelone. Cette approche est pertinente vu que la Méditerranée est un lieu privilégié pour WOCMES pour réunir des experts de tous les coins du Monde, pour échanger des idées nouvelles, pour construire et renforcer des réseaux régionaux et globaux de recherches concertées. Nous souhaitons sincèrement que WOCMES 2014 enrichira les moyens par lesquels le participants transigent sur les divergences de vue afin qu’ils s’impliquent dans des débats instructifs et qu’ils émettent un faible lueur d’espoir aux conflits prolongés du Moyen Orient dans son ensemble. Nous sommes aussi ravis que le prix WOCMES pour une Contribution Exceptionnelle aux Etudes du Moyen Orient serait accordée cette année a un ancien membre de notre Université, Prof. Dr. Suraiya Faroqhi, qui a servi a METU entre 1971-1987. Nous souhaitons à tous les participants un congre très réussi et gratifiant. Nous espérons aussi qu’ils apprécieront les évènements culturels organisés au cours d WOCMES 2014.

By May 31 of 2013, Turkey witnessed something never experienced before in the territories of this country. People from nationalist, socialist, idealist and from many other political views took to the streets against injustice and police violence being experienced. Thousands of people who are considered as opponents and never expected to come together fought with solidarity in the same barricade. Gezi resistance initiated a new era in this country. Young people who have been considered as apolitical and labeled as insensitive for years become acquainted with streets. People took to the streets against injustice in every field of life. Everyone collaborated with laborers and resisted brotherly. Just like all other struggles for freedom, this solidarity and resistance brought some sad losses unfortunately. Highly sad losses... 24 people lost their eye by reason of tear gas capsule or plastic bullet. We buried 8 very young people, 8 saplings in the country’s land as the saplings to let them shoot forth and greet the future honoredly. Mother of one of these Gezi martyrs, mother Fadime could not stand the absence of her son and passed away to the place of her son by following the smell of her son... The whole country expected for good news from Berkin Elvan who had been in a comatose for 269 days every day and night. And 15 year old Berkin died after 269 days in coma, his 16 kilogram body was carried to the grave by Istanbul streets accompanied by millions of people... This topic of this exhibition is the street resistances started by the “Gezi Resistance” and ongoing for the last 1 year. This exhibition is my humbly duty of loyalty towards “GEZİ MARTYRS AND VETERANS”. This exhibition is the yield of your resistance, this exhibition is your story... 216 EVERYWHERE TAKSİM, EVERYWHERE RESISTANCE! #ResistGezi SERDAR ÇALIK Serdar Çalık was born in 1979 in Istanbul and started his photography career in Australia.

Depuis le 31 mai 2013, la Turquie a vécu des événements jusqu’alors inconnus sur ses terres. Des personnes venant d’horizons nationaliste, socialiste, idéaliste et de nombreux autres sont descendus dans les rues contre les injustices et les violences policières rencontrées. Des milliers de personnes, considérées comme des opposants, ne s’attendaient pas à se battre ensemble, avec solidarité derrière la même barricade. La Résistance de Gezi a lancé une nouvelle ère dans ce pays. Les jeunes, jusqu’alors considérés comme apolitiques et étiquetés comme neutres depuis des années, se sont familiarisés avec la rue. Des personnes sont descendues dans les rues contre l’injustice dans tous les domaines de la vie. Tous ont collaboré avec les travailleurs et ont résisté fraternellement. Comme dans toutes les autres luttes pour la liberté, cette solidarité et cette résistance ont malheureusement eu de tristes pertes. Très tristes pertes... 24 personnes ont perdu leurs yeux à cause de l’usage de capsule de gaz lacrymogène ou de balle en caoutchouc. Nous avons enterré 8 très jeunes, 8 jeunes pousses dans les terres du pays comme de jeunes arbres poussant en avant et saluant le futur avec honneur. La mère de l’un de ces martyrs de Gezi, Mère Fadime n’a pas pu supporter l’absence de son fils et est décédé sur le même lieu que son fils en suivant son esprit... Tous les jours et toutes les nuits, le pays tout entier a attendu de recevoir de bonnes nouvelles de Berkine Elvan resté dans le coma pendant 269 jours. Mais Berkine, agé de 15ans, est mort après ces 269 jours de coma, et son corps de 16 kg a été porté jusqu’à sa tombe dans les rues d’Istanbul, accompagné par des millions de personnes ... Cette exposition est dédiée à la résistance des rues qui a été initiée par la “Résistance de Gezi” et qui s’est poursuivie pendant toute l’année passée. Cette exposition est mon humble devoir de loyauté envers les “MARTYRES ET VETERANS DE GEZI”. Cette exposition est le résultat de votre résistance, cette exposition est votre histoire ...

KARDEŞ TÜRKÜLER & ARA DINKJIAN ARA DINKJIAN is an Armenian born in America in 1958. His earliest professional musical experience was accompanying his father Onnik Dinkjian, a renowned Armenian folk and liturgical singer. Ara learned several western and eastern instruments (piano,guitar, darbuka, and clarinet) and in 1980 graduated from the Hartt College of Music, earning the country’s first and only special degree in the instrument for which he has become most well-known, the oud. For the past 35 years, he has continued his post as organist in the Armenian Apostolic Church. Throughout his musical life, Ara has continued to develop his highly personal compositional style which blends his eastern and western roots. In 1985, to help realize these compositions and musical concepts, Ara formed his instrumental quartet, Night Ark, which recorded four CDs for RCA/BMG and Universal/PolyGram. Night Ark’s recordings and concert tours were highly influential for musicians and music lovers throughout the world because they demonstrated how music can move forward while still retaining the dignity and soul of one’s culture. Ara Dinkjian’s compositions have had a universal appeal. His songs have been recorded by world famous instrumentalists and singers in thirteen different languages, demonstrating that music does indeed unite people and cultures.

Les compositions résultantes, reposant fermement sur des chansons et des formes de danses traditionnelles, seront arrangées selon la propre approche du projet à disposition. KARDEŞ TÜRKÜLER & ARA DINKJIAN ARA DINKJIAN est un Arménien né aux USA en 1958. C’est en accompagnant son père Onnik Dinkjian, chanteur folk et liturgique reconnu qu’il a eu sa première expérience musicale professionnelle. Ara a appris plusieurs instruments occidentaux et orientaux (piano, guitare, derbouka et clarinette) et en 1980 a été diplômé du Collège de musique Hartt, obtenant ainsi le seul et unique diplôme spécial du pays dans l’instrument avec lequel il est, depuis, devenu célèbre, le oud. Ces 35 dernières années, il a continué son poste d’organiste à l’Eglise apostolique arménienne. Tout au long de sa carrière musicale, Ara a continué à développer son style de composition très personnelle mêlant ses racines orientales et occidentales. En 1985, pour l’aider à réaliser ces compositions et concepts musicaux, Ara a formé son quartet instrumental, Night Ark, lequel a enregistré quatre CD pour RCA/ BMG et Universal/Polygram. Les enregistrements et tournées de concerts de Night Ark ont beaucoup influencé les musiciens et amateurs de musique à travers le monde car ils ont démontré comment la musique peut aller de l’avant tout en conservant la dignité et l’âme de sa culture. Les compositions de Ara Dinkjian ont un attrait universel. Ses chansons ont été enregistrées par de célèbres instrumentistes et chanteurs en treize langues différentes, ce qui démontre que la musique permet d’unir les gens et les cultures. Kardeş Türküler et Ara Dinkjian ont fait plusieurs concerts à Istanbul, Diyarbakır et New York.

Cultural and Convention Centre A Hall The musicians of Alla Turca Kollektif are members of the leading ensembles in their countries (for example the Turkish State Ensemble for Historical Music or the European Union Baroque Orchestra), teaching in renowned universities like ITÜ Turkish Music Conservatory, awarded in national and international competitions and performing regularly in festivals and prestigious concerts halls in Turkey, Europe and overseas. Besides high artistic quality, literature of musicology and historical research and astonishing creativity are the basis for Alla Turca Kollektif’s projects. The ensemble respects the tradition and creates at the same time a new space for the arts in an unusual and surprising context. ATC dedicates itself to period performance practice; which means that the musicians are playing instruments of the period that the music was written. The Group’s speciality is to focus on the wide Ottoman impact on the European Art music, starting from the 16th Century. Western music history usually tends to ignore or just to consider this impact as an exotic spice. According to the Latin saying “Ex oriente lux” (“The light is coming from the East”); we are abducting the audience to musical experiences and connections that they might have never imagined before. Alla Turca Kollektif performs regularly in Turkey and Europe. (www.allaturca.info) 222 www.wocmes2014.org ALLA TURCA KOLLEKTİF Concert / Concert Wednesday/ Mercredi, 20 August/Août 2014; 8.00 pm.

Outre une grande qualité artistique, la littérature de la musicologie, la recherche historique et une créativité étonnante sont à la base des projets de Alla Turca Kollektif. L’ensemble respecte la tradition et crée en même temps un nouvel espace pour les arts dans un contexte inhabituel et surprenant. ATC se consacre à la pratique historique; ce qui signifie que les musiciens jouent des instruments de la même époque que celle où la musique a été écrite. La spécialité du Groupe est de se concentrer sur le large impact ottoman au niveau de la musique de l’Art Européen, à partir du 16e siècle. L’histoire de la musique occidentale a généralement tendance à ignorer ou tout simplement de considérer cet impact comme une épice exotique. Selon l’adage latin “ex oriente lux” (“La lumière vient de l’Orient”); nous élevons le public vers des expériences et des connexions musicales qu’ils n’auraient jamais imaginé avant. Alla Turca Kollektif se produit régulièrement en Turquie et en Europe. (www.allaturca.info) 223 Concerts / Concerts CAN ÇAKMUR Concert / Concert Thursday/ Jeudi, 21 August/Août 2014, 9.00 pm.

Most of the films have been provided by young or new film makers, most of them from the Middle East. The films were selected to represent a selection of the WOCMES themes.

Marking these uprising are nine films representing Bahrain, Egypt, Tunisia and Yemen. In addition what may be a Saudi insurrection is also included. Changing women’s roles in their societies are addressed by a number of films. Host Turkey is represented by four short films, two documentaries and a feature.

It reveals a lot about how people really feel about the fall of the Mubarak regime and where Egypt is heading or ought to be heading. Winner of seven prestigious journalism awards, May Ying Welsh’s film combines footage of demonstrations, interviews and local television coverage to reveal the short-lived and barely reported Bahrain version of the Arab Spring. Beyond coverage of how the minority Sunni rulers suppressed the Shi’a minority, the film raises questions about why news outlets allowed the revolution to languish. What role did the United States, whose 5th fleet is based in Manama, play? Bien que la technique de tournage sur les conducteurs de taxis et leurs passagers n’est pas nouvelle, ce film montre la vie cairote dans le sillage du printemps arabe. Il révèle beaucoup de choses sur le vrai ressenti des gens face à la chute du régime de Moubarak, sur la voie que prend l’Egypte et sur celle vers laquelle elle devrait se diriger. A film by Jill Beardsworth and Keith Walsh Vainqueur de sept prestigieux prix de journalisme, le film de Mai Ying Welsh combine des images de manifestation, des interviews et la couverture de la télévision locale pour révéler la version courte et peu connue du Printemps arabe au Bahrein. Au-delà de la couverture sur la façon selon laquelle les dirigeants sunnites minoritaires ont supprimé la minorité chiite, le film soulève des questions sur la raison pour laquelle les nouvelles diffuses par les médias ont permis à la révolution de dépérir. Quel rôle ont joué les Etats-Unis, dont la 5e flotte est basée à Manama ? Documentary / Twopair Films Production 2012 / Color / 81’ / Golan Arabic and Hebrew w/English subtitles Courtesy of Jill Beardsworth and Keith Walsh Before the Revolution: The Untold Story of the Israeli Paradise in Iran Apples of the Golan Since Israel captured the Golan in 1967, the region’s Syrian population has been largely expelled. Today only five villages remain, within shouting distance of relatives and friends living on the other side of the UN-maintained border. Despite their quasi imprisonment, these villagers are tenacious in their desire to preserve their way of life. They are as hardy as the apples they grow. Depuis que l’lsraël a capturé le Golan en 1967, la population syrienne de la région a été largement expulsée. Aujourd’hui, seuls restent cinq villages, à portée de voix des parents et amis vivant de l’autre côté de la frontière maintenue par l’ONU. En dépit de leur quasi-emprisonnement, ces villageois s’obstinent dans leur désir de préserver leur mode de vie. Ils sont aussi robustes que les pommes qu’ils cultivent. 232 A film by Dan Shadur and Barak Heymann Documentary / Heymann Brothers Films 2013 / Color and Black & White / 60’ / Iran, Israel Hebrew and Persian w/English subtitles, English Courtesy of Heymann Brothers Films In the 1960s and 1970s Tehran hosted a substantial Israeli community that was the part of a large arms and financial network that supported the Shah’s regime. Enmeshed in their luxurious lifestyles, they were unaware that Pahlavi rule was collapsing. Finally, they were forced to flee the Islamic Revolution. Dans les années 1960 et 1970, Téhéran a accueilli une importante communauté israélienne qui était la partie d’un grand réseau financier armé qui a soutenu le régime du Shah. Empêtré dans un train de vie luxueux, ils ne savaient pas que le règne des Pahlavi s’effondrait. Finalement, ils ont été contraints de fuir la Révolution islamique. www.wocmes2014.org Before the Revolution: The Untold Story of the Israeli Paradise in Iran Casablanca Calling Berxên Kulek (Lame Lambs) Casablanca Calling A film by Yunus Yıldırım A film by Rosa Rogers Short Feature Film 2014 / Color / 12’ / Turkey Turkish w/English subtitles Courtesy of Women’s Voices Now Documentary 2014 / Color / 70’ / Morocco Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Women Make Movies Neco is a Kurdish nomad who had to sell his late brother’s wife, Avjin, to Huseyin as a second wife. He does not want to separate Rinde, Avjin’s daughter, from her mother, but he feels he has no choice. They load their horses with their injured lambs and start the journey from the mountains to the little town of Kanires. Although 60% of Moroccan women have not attended school, efforts are being made to inform and empower them. Some women are being trained and employed as official Muslim leaders or mourchidat. These new religious figures are teaching an Islam based on tolerance, compassion and equality. They provide vital support and guidance to communities, especially to girls and women. In the film, three mourchidat provide advice on marriage and employment, champion education for girls and women, caution against early marriage and help resolve personal problems. Neco est un nomade kurde qui a dû vendre la femme de son défunt frère, Avjin, à Huseyin comme seconde épouse. Il ne veut pas se séparer Rinde, la fille de Avjin, de sa mère, mais il sent qu’il n’a pas le choix. Ils chargent leurs chevaux avec leurs agneaux blessés et entament le voyage de la montagne jusqu’à la petite ville de Kanires. Break the Silence about Sexual Harassment: Moroccans Speak Out! Documentary / Global Girl Media 2013 / Color / 32’ / Morocco Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Women’s Voices Now While rape may be the greatest physical threat to young Moroccan women, this film illustrates that sexual harassment is an increasingly common and overt behavior in Moroccan streets. The indifference that Moroccan society displays towards sexual harassment is one factor behind the increasing number of victims. In fact, there seems to be a discrepancy between the condemnatory institutional discourses on rape and sexual harassment and the actions taken by the same institutions to end them. Alors que le viol peut être la plus grande menace physique pour les jeunes femmes marocaines, ce film montre que le harcèlement sexuel est un comportement de plus en plus commun et manifeste dans les rues marocaines. L’indifférence que la société marocaine affiche envers le harcèlement sexuel est un des facteurs de l’augmentation du nombre de victimes. En fait, il semble y avoir un écart entre les discours institutionnels de condamnation sur le viol et le harcèlement sexuel, et les mesures prises par les mêmes institutions pour y mettre fin. Alors que 60% des femmes marocaines n’ont pas fréquenté l’école, des efforts sont déployés pour les informer et les responsabiliser. Certaines femmes sont formées et employées en tant que dirigeants musulmans officiels ou mourchidat. Ces nouvelles figures religieuses enseignent un islam fondé sur la tolérance, la compassion et l’égalité. Elles apportent un soutien et des conseils vitaux pour les communautés, en particulier pour les filles et les femmes. Dans le film, trois mourchidats donnent des conseils sur le mariage et l’emploi, l’éducation compétitive pour les filles et les femmes, la prudence contre le mariage précoce et aident à résoudre les problèmes personnels. Cinema Palestine A film by Tim Schwab Documentary / First Light Films International Production 2011 / Color / 80’ / Palestine, Israel, Jordan English, Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Tim Schwab This is a visual essay on the history and development of Palestinian film. Based on interviews with film makers in Palestine and elsewhere, write-director Schwab focuses on the emergence of a particularly Palestinian narrative that is expressed through film. Additionally, the importance of film in the Palestinian struggle for national identity and independence emerges from the interviews. Il s’agit d’un essai visuel sur l’histoire et le développement du cinéma palestinien. Basé sur des entretiens avec des cinéastes en Palestine et ailleurs, l’écrivain-directeur Schwab met l’accent sur l’émergence d’un récit palestinien particulier qui s’exprime à travers le cinéma. En outre, l’importance du film dans la lutte palestinienne pour l’identité nationale et l’indépendance se dégage des entretiens. 233 Film Festival / Festival du cinéma The Fading Valley Garod Dar Alan (Tight Space) Gabes Labess (All is well in Gabes) A film by Hasan Demirtaş A film by Habib Ayeb Short Feature Film 2013 / Color / 15’ / Turkey Turkish w/English subtitles Courtesy of Hasan Demirtaş Documentary / 5/5 Production (Tunisia) & Les Productions de l’Amaru (France) 20 / Color / 46’ / Tunisia Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Habib Ayeb Hasankeyf, a village located along the Tigris River, is threatened with flooding and the loss of its cultural heritage because of the proposed Ilısu Dam.

Each day it gets more difficult to play football because of the rising waterline. Hasankeyf, un village situé le long du fleuve Tigre, est sous la menace d’inondations et de la perte de son patrimoine culturel en raison du futur barrage d’Ilisu. Ali et ses amis travaillent comme guides pour les touristes visitant les merveilles naturelles du village. Après avoir raconté Hasankeyf et sa beauté aux touristes, les enfants se rassemblent sur le terrain de football. Chaque jour, il devient de plus en plus difficile de jouer au football en raison de la montée des eaux. The Fading Valley A film by Irit Gal This film investigates how the construction of an industrial chemical complex turned the world’s only coastal oasis into an environmental, social and economic catastrophe. Using interviews with those most affected by this decision, the film illustrates the many problems of poor planning and urges action be taken before pollution, loss of water and land and increased diseases make life in Gabes impossible. Ce film enquête sur les impacts de la construction d’un complexe industriel chimique qui a change le monde d’un oasis côtier en catastrophe environnementale, sociale et économique. Grâce à des entrevues avec les personnes les plus touchées par cette décision, le film illustre les nombreux problèmes d’une mauvaise planification et la nécessité de prises d’actions urgentes avant la pollution, la perte d’eau et de terre, et l’augmentation des maladies qui rendent la vie impossible à Gabès. Garod A film by Onur Günay and Burcu Yıldız Documentary 2013 / Color / 54’ / Palestine Arabic and Hebrew w/English subtitles Courtesy of Ruth Diskin Films Documentary 2012 / Color / 53’ / Turkey / English Courtesy of Onur Günay In the fertile Jordan Valley there is a group of Palestinian farmers who are hidden. Their pastures have been declared military areas, their water wells have been closed and the water has been diverted to the Jewish settlers of the valley. Some Palestinians have given up and moved to the city. Others have been forced to work in the very settlements that have taken over their lands. This film illustrates the lives of these farmers whose rights have been taken away and have become illegal residents in their own land. In Armenian, Garod means longing for the homeland; longing for a time that is eternally lost. This film is about the lives and the musical stories of two Armenian musicians: Onnik Dinkjian and Ara Dinkjian, a father and son, who are remaking their musical tradition. Garod tells the stories of Onnik and Ara through their connections to Diyarbakır, Anatolia, Armenian church music, and musical relations with Sid Clark, Arto Tunçboyaciyan, Night Ark, Eleftheria Arvanitaki, Sezen Aksu, Kardeş Türküler and Ahmet Kaya. Dans la fertile vallée du Jourdain, un groupe d’agriculteurs palestiniens y vit caché. Leurs pâturages ont été déclarés zones militaires, leurs puits d’eau ont été fermés et l’eau a été détournée vers les colons juifs de la vallée. Certains Palestiniens ont renoncé et ont déménagé en ville. D’autres ont été contraints de travailler dans les colonies mêmes qui se sont installés sur leurs terres. Ce film illustre la vie de ces agriculteurs à qui on a retiré les droits et qui sont devenus résidents illégaux dans leur propre pays. En Arménien, Garod signifie “nostalgie de la patrie”; nostalgie d’un temps qui est perdu définitivement. C’est un film sur la vie et les histoires musicales de deux musiciens arméniens: Onnik Dinkjian et Ara Dinkjian, un père et son fils, qui sont en train de recréer leur tradition musicale. Garod raconte les histoires de Onnik et Ara grâce à leurs liens avec Diyarbakır, l’Anatolie, la musique religieuse arménienne et leurs relations musicales avec Sid Clark, Arto Tunçboyaciyan, Night Ark, Eleftheria Arvanitaki, Sezen Aksu, Kardeş Türküler et Ahmet Kaya. 234 www.wocmes2014.org Gölün Kıyısında (By the Lake) Killing Her is a Ticket to Paradise Gölün Kıyısında (By the Lake) Killing Her is a Ticket to Paradise A film by Mehmet Emre Gül A film by Khadija al-Salami Documentary 2013 / Color / 17’ / Turkey Turkish w/English subtitles Courtesy of Mehmet Emre Gül Documentary 2013 / Color / 57’ / Yemen Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Khadija al- Salami A serious drought changed life around Eber Lake. It signaled the end of the area’s fishing and reed cutting way of life. The local paper mill was forced to close. How do the mostly elderly inhabitants forced to remain get by? The outspoken Yemeni activist and blogger Bouchra Al Maqtari wrote an article that expressed her disappointment with the outcome of Yemenis’ dreams of freedom and democracy. She never expected that a fatwa would be issued calling for her death. Khadija al-Salami’s film gives an intimate portrait of this activist. Une grave sécheresse a changé la vie autour du lac Eber. Elle a marqué la fin de la pêche et du mode de vie des coupeurs de roseau dans la région. L’usine de papier locale a été contrainte de fermer. Comment les habitants, âgés pour la plupart, contraints de rester vont pouvoir s’en sortir? La blogueuse et activiste yéménite au franc parler Bouchra Al Maqtari a écrit un article exprimant sa déception vis-àvis des rêves de liberté et de démocratie des Yéménites. Elle ne s’attendait pas qu’une fatwa demandant sa mort serait prononcée. Le film de Khadija al-Salami peint un portrait intime de cette militante. Karama Has No Walls A film by Sara Ishaq Sara Ishaq & Hot Spot Films Production 2013 / Color / 26’ / Yemen Arabic w/ English subtitles Courtesy of Sara Ishaq and Cinema Guild Nominated for the Best Short Documentary Academy Award, Karama focuses on the events of a single Friday’s protest in the early days of Yemen’s Arab Spring. In March 2011 pro-government snipers killed more than 50 protesters, a horrifying event caught on camera that resulted in a surge in anti-government protests. Nominé pour le Prix du Meilleur Documentaire format Court Métrage, Karama se concentre sur les événements de la protestation d’un seul vendredi dans les premiers jours du Printemps Arabe du Yémen. En Mars 2011, les tireurs d’élite pro-gouvernementaux ont tué plus de 50 manifestants, un événement horrible pris en photo resultant d’un élan de manifestations anti-gouvernementales. Kismet A film by Nina Maria Paschalidou Documentary / Forest Troop & Anemon Productions 2013 / Color / 57’ / Turkey, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Bulgaria, and Greece Turkish, Arabic, Greek, Bulgarian w/English subtitles Courtesy of Women Make Movies Turkish soap operas are enjoyed by an estimated 300 million viewers. Kismet explores how the serials captivate, inspire and empower women. The film reveals how the soaps impact and break down negative stereotypes and traditional taboos while also sparking change in gender relationships, activism against sexual abuse, and a wave of divorce across the Middle East. Les feuilletons turcs sont appréciés par environ 300 millions de téléspectateurs. Kismet explore la façon dont les séries captivent, inspirent et donnent de l’autonomie aux femmes. Le film montre comment les films ont des impacts sur la société, et brisent les stéréotypes négatifs et les tabous traditionnels, tout en suscitant des changements dans les relations entre les sexes, l’activisme contre la violence sexuelle, et une vague de divorce à travers le Moyen-Orient. 235 Film Festival / Festival du cinéma Last Shepherds of the Valley Min Dit: The Children of Diyarbakir Last Shepherds of the Valley Looting the Holy Land A film by Mariam Shahin and George Azar A film by Mariam Shahin and George Azar Documentary / Maysara Productions Color / 49‘ / Palestine Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Maysara Productions Documentary / Maysara Films Production 2010 / Color / 47’ / Palestine, Israel English, Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Maysara Films Some 56,000 Palestinians live in the part of the Jordan Valley that lies in the West Bank – many are Bedouin living in temporary communities, always moving with the herds. Farmers and shepherds have tended flocks and lived off the land for thousands of years. Today many are struggling to maintain their way of life as Israel’s occupation restricts Palestinian development on the land, and Bedouin homes in the area have been repeatedly razed. Their determination to remain on the land is becoming ever more difficult in the face of daily attempts by the Israeli military and settlers to drive them off. Since 1967 countless artifacts have been unearthed and removed from the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip. Many are displayed in Israeli museums and private collections, while others are sold to tourists. For Israel, archeology has been a key tool in buttressing its territorial claims to historic Palestine. Archaeological findings are used to assert ownership and to rename the territories they occupy. Palestinians see the cultural heritage of the West Bank, Jerusalem and Gaza as a central part of their ancestral birthright and ownership is central to the building of an economy based on pilgrimage and tourism. What role has the science of archeology played in the ArabIsraeli dispute? Quelques 56 000 Palestiniens vivent dans la partie de la vallée du Jourdain qui se trouve en Cisjordanie - beaucoup sont des Bédouins vivant dans des communautés temporaires, toujours en mouvement avec les troupeaux. Les agriculteurs et les bergers ont toujours eu tendance à ce mode de vie avec les troupeaux et ont vécu de la terre depuis des milliers d’années. Aujourd’hui, beaucoup ont du mal à maintenir leur mode de vie alors que l’occupation par Israël limite le développement palestinien sur la terre, et que les maisons bédouines de la région ont été rasés à plusieurs reprises. Leur détermination à rester sur ces terres est de plus en plus difficile face à des tentatives quotidiennes de l’armée israélienne et des colons pour les chasser. Depuis 1967, de nombreux artefacts ont été découverts et retirés de la Cisjordanie occupée et dans la bande de Gaza. Beaucoup sont exposées dans des musées et des collections privées israéliennes, tandis que d’autres sont vendus aux touristes. Pour Israël, l’archéologie a été un outil essentiel pour étayer ses revendications territoriales face à la Palestine historique. Les découvertes archéologiques sont utilisées pour revendiquer la propriété et renommer les territoires qu’ils occupent. Les Palestiniens voient le patrimoine culturel de la Cisjordanie, de Jérusalem et de Gaza comme un élément central de leur droit d’aînesse ancestrale et la propriété est au centre de la construction d’une économie basée sur le tourisme et le pèlerinage. Quel role a joué la science de l’archéologie dans le conflit israélo-arabe ? Lily Slame Min Dit: The Children of Diyarbakir A film by Farah Khadhar A film by Miraz Bezar Documentary 2014 / Color / 20’ / Tunisia Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Farah Khadhar Feature Film / Bezar Film 2010 / Color / 102’ / Turkey Turkey and Kurdish w/English subtitles Courtesy of Miraz Bezar Lily Slame illustrates the identity crisis that has taken over the lives of women since the Tunisian revolution. Ten-year old Gulistan and her younger brother Firat live happily with their parents in Diyarbakir, the heart of Turkish Kurdistan, until their mother and father are killed by paramilitary gunmen. Traumatized and orphaned, Gulistan, Firat and their infant sister are placed in the care of their young, politically-active aunt who soon disappears without a trace. As days turn into weeks, the money that their aunt left them runs out. Lily Slame illustre la crise d’identité qui s’est installée dans la vie des femmes depuis la révolution tunisienne. 236 www.wocmes2014.org The Noise of Cairo: A Documentary about Cairo, Art & Revolution Eventually, the children have to fend for themselves on the streets, where one day, Gulistan is shocked to come across the murderer of her parents. Agé de dix ans, Gulistan, et son jeune frère Firat vivent heureux avec leurs parents à Diyarbakir, au coeur du Kurdistan turc, jusqu’à ce que leur mère et leur père soient tués par des hommes armés paramilitaires. Traumatisés et orphelins, Gulistan, Firat et leur petite soeur sont placés sous la garde de leur jeune tante, politiquement active qui disparaît rapidement sans laisser de trace. Alors que les jours se transforment en semaines, l’argent que leur tante leur a laissé s’épuise. Finalement, les enfants doivent se débrouiller par eux-mêmes dans les rues, où un jour, Gulistan est choqué de rencontrer l’assassin de ses parents. Mohtarama A film by Diana Saqeb and Malek Shafi’i Documentary / Basa Film 2012 / Black & White / 60’ Afghanistan Dari w/English subtitles Courtesy of Women’s Voices Now In 2009, the Afghan Parliament approved the Shi’a Family Law, which was then signed by President Karzai. The law severely restricted women’s freedom, making it illegal for them to exit the house without their husband’s consent or resisting their husband’s sexual demands. The Afghan women who were against this law, gathered and protested in front of Afghanistan’s biggest religious school where the law was written, one of the first women’s rights demonstrations. Mohtarama is mainly about educated Afghan women and their concerns about their lack of political and social rights, domestic violence, troubled marriages and street harassment. En 2009, le Parlement Afghan a approuvé le Droit de la Famille Chiite, qui a ensuite été signé par le président Karzaï. La loi restreint sévèrement la liberté des femmes, et rend illégal leur sortie de la maison sans le consentement de leur mari ou la résistance aux demandes sexuelles de leur mari. Les femmes afghanes qui étaient contre cette loi, se sont rassemblées et ont manifesté devant la plus grande école religieuse de l’Afghanistan, où la loi a été rédigée, l’une des premières manifestations de défense des droits des femmes. Mohtarama est basé principalement sur ces femmes afghanes et leurs préoccupations au sujet de l’absence de droits politiques et sociaux, la violence domestique, les mariages difficiles et le harcèlement de rue. Rouge Parole The Noise of Cairo: A Documentary about Cairo, Art & Revolution A film by Heiko Lange Documentary / Scenesfrom Production 2012 / Color / 57’ / Egypt English and Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Scenes from Art in any form was considered subversive by the Mubarak regime. Artists were subject to harsh punishments. The fall of the regime opened the doors to artistic expression. The art scene has flourished. This film examines the lives and work of a variety of practitioners and how they incorporate their political views in their works. L’Art sous toutes ses formes a été considéré comme subversif par le régime de Moubarak. Les artistes ont été soumis à des peines sévères. La chute du régime a ouvert les portes à l’expression artistique. La scène de l’art a prospéré. Ce film examine les conditions de vie et de travail d’une variété de praticiens et la façon dont ils intègrent leurs opinions politiques dans leurs œuvres. Occupy Turkey: Resistance in Baseworld A film by Amy Austin Holmes Documentary 2012 / Color / 67’ / Turkey Turkish w/Arabic subtitles Courtesy of Amy Austin Holmes With over 1,000 military installations on foreign soil, the US has erected what some call an empire of bases. This film provides a glimpse into this little-known world, by taking a close look at the history of the American presence in Turkey – and the rise of resistance to that presence. In the 1960s this included demonstrations against the Navy’s port visits to Istanbul, strikes by unionized base workers, and kidnappings of American soldiers. Avec plus de 1000 installations militaires sur le sol étranger, les États-Unis ont érigé ce que certains appellent un empire de bases. Ce film donne un aperçu de ce monde peu connu, en s’intéressant de près à l’histoire de la présence américaine en Turquie - et à l’augmentation de la résistance face à cette présence. Dans les années 1960, ceci s’est exprimé par des manifestations contre les escales de la Navy à Istanbul, les grèves des travailleurs de base syndiqués, et l’enlèvements de soldats américains. 237 Film Festival / Festival du cinéma Saudi Arabia: Secret Uprising Rouge Parole A film by Elyes Baccar Documentary 2011 / Color / 96’ / Tunisia Arabia w/English subtitles Courtesy of Elyes Baccar To many on the outside (and even on the inside), Tunisia appeared a bastion of stability in the Arab world. But this image was only a mirage. For years, the Tunisian people have turned a blind eye to the corruption and systemic looting of their country’s wealth and resources by the regime in power, led by President Ben Ali. But when Mohamed Bouazizi set fire to himself on the streets of Tunis in December 2010 his act sparked a popular uprising that toppled a dictator and developed into the Arab Spring. Elyes Baccar chronicles his country’s revolution with searing, passionate images of demonstrations, celebrations and riots in the days leading to and immediately following the expulsion of President Ben Ali. Under the Same Sun La province orientale de l’Arabie Saoudite est le foyer de la plupart des Musulmans Chiites du Royaume. Ils représentent moins de 15% de la population, et beaucoup prétendent qu’ils sont victimes de discrimination sectaire. Enhardi par les soulèvements arabes balayant la region, ils ont commencé leurs manifestations au début de 2011, lorsque des protestations ont exigé la libération de neuf hommes détenus sans procès pendant des années. Mais dans cette monarchie conservatrice, la dissidence est rarement tolérée. Au cours des trois dernières années de manifestations, 20 jeunes hommes ont été tués et des centaines d’autres ont été blessés ou emprisonnés. Siege of Salt and Sand A film by ST McNeil and Radhouane Addala Documentary 2014 / Color / 43’ / Tunisia, US English, Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Sam McNeil and Radhouane Addala Pour beaucoup à l’extérieur (et même à l’intérieur), la Tunisie est apparue comme un bastion de stabilité dans le monde arabe. Mais cette image n’était qu’un mirage. Pendant des années, le peuple tunisien a fermé les yeux sur la corruption et le pillage systématique des richesses et des ressources de leur pays par le régime au pouvoir, dirigé par le président Ben Ali. Mais quand Mohamed Bouazizi s’est immolé dans les rues de Tunis en Décembre 2010, son acte a déclenché un soulèvement populaire qui a renversé un dictateur et s’est développé dans le Printemps Arabe. Elyes Baccar raconte la révolution de son pays avec des images intenses et passionnées des manifestations, des célébrations et des émeutes dans les jours précédant et suivant immédiatement l’expulsion du président Ben Ali. Tunisia is on the forefront of climate change. The “Shore of Death” of Gabes province is the focus of this visual report on the impacts rising sea levels, industrial pollution and desertification. Drawing on interviews with scientists, environmentalists, and residents, Siege of Salt and Sand presents a picture of the future. Saudi Arabia: Secret Uprising Socotra: He’r wa Imshin (Socotra: Once and Today) A film by Safa Al Ahmad Documentary / BBC Arabic Films 2014 / Color / 46’ / Saudi Arabia English and Arabic w/English subtitles By arrangement with Journeyman TV Saudi Arabia’s Eastern Province is home to most of the Kingdom’s Shi’a Muslims. They make up less than 15% of the population, and many claim they suffer sectarian discrimination. Emboldened by the Arab uprisings sweeping through the region their demonstrations began in early 2011, when protesters demanded the release of nine men held for years without trial. But in this conservative monarchy, dissent is rarely tolerated. Over the past three years of protests, 20 young men have been killed and hundreds more have been injured or jailed. 238 La Tunisie est au premier rang face aux changements climatiques. La “Côte de la mort” de la province de Gabès est l’objet de ce rapport visuel sur les impacts de l’élévation du niveau de la mer, de la pollution industrielle et de la désertification. S’appuyant sur des entretiens avec des scientifiques, des écologistes et des habitants, Siège de Sel et de Sable présente une image de l’avenir.

Director Kamal Hachkar returns to his natal village to learn about the population that left and then travels to Israel to locate some of his family’s former neighbors. He discovers that at least in retrospect the émigrés retain a strong Berber identity. A village in the hearts of mountains is totally empty. Still it is not. The village comes to life back with past voices. There are no people in the village; there are no animals and no living things. But their voices exist. It is the story of people, animals, nature and all the living things of a village before it is ruined. Pendant les années 1950 et 1960, de nombreux Juifs Marocains parlant berbère ont immigré en Israël. Le directeur Kamal Hachkar revient dans son village natal pour se renseigner sur la population qui a émigré, puis se déplace en Israël pour localiser quelques-uns des anciens voisins de sa famille. Il découvre que, au moins rétrospectivement, les émigrés ont conservé une forte identité berbère.

In the end, they mount a FaceBook campaign that impacts both their joint venture and ultimately changes the political map.

When I Saw You A film by Annemarie Jacir Feature Film / Philistine Films Production 20 / Color / 97’ / Jordan English and Arabic w/English subtitles Courtesy of Annemarie Jacir The world is alive with change: brimming with reawakened energy, new styles, music and an infectious sense of hope. In 1967 Jordan, a different kind of change is underway as tens of thousands of refugees pour across the border from Palestine. Having been separated from his father in the chaos of war, Tarek, 11, and his mother Ghaydaa, are amongst this latest wave of refugees. Placed in “temporary” refugee camps made up of tents and prefab houses until they would be able to return, they wait, like the generation before them who arrived in 1948. With difficulties adjusting to life in Harir Camp and a longing to be reunited with his father, Tarek searches a way out, and discovers a new hope emerging with the times. Eventually his free spirit and curious nature lead him to a group of people on a journey that will change their lives.
