Discourse and domination
Postmodern fiction is often described in aesthetic terms: irony, fragmentation, parody, and metafictional play. Yet its most durable political contribution may be its sustained attention to how institutions manufacture consent through language, narrative, and everyday routines. This article argues that many canonical postmodern novels function as laboratories for studying domination. They stage encounters between subjects and institutions (state,…
Analytical review of contemporary speculative literature
This article argues that contemporary speculative literature operates as a mode of cultural foresight through which writers test, complicate, and ethically evaluate possible futures of health, energy, and economics. Rather than treating speculative fiction as a crude predictive machine, I read it as a literary practice of scenario-making that reveals hidden interdependencies between bodily vulnerability, infrastructural power, and political econo…
Arabic linguistic foresight as development infrastructure
Budgets and technologies do not implement sustainable development on their own; the SDGs also depend on shared language that makes problems nameable, indicators measurable, and policies teachable. In many Arabic-speaking contexts, SDG-related knowledge arrives first through English-dominant research, consultancy, and standards, while Arabic public and educational communication often inherits improvised borrowings and unstable calques. This integr…
Exploring the role of literary and media translation in forging new economic paradigms, environmental accountability, and health sovereignty
Sustainable development is argued and negotiated through narratives that travel across languages, media platforms, and educational systems. Economic “reform”, environmental “responsibility”, and public “health” are not neutral topics; they are storylines that define problems, distribute agency and blame, and authorize particular futures. Translation is one of the main infrastructures through which these storylines become portable and persuasive. …

Developing Transcreation Skills in Translation Studies
The relevance of transcreation skills goes beyond mere translation strategy to a more sought-after service, that help equip translators with relevant employability skills. Nevertheless, the concern for the high demands of translators who possess these skills calls for a thorough training of future translators to acquire these skills. On the other hand, this will be possible if translator educators are already equipped with these skills. As such, …
Gendered Response to Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Modern Linguistics
The incorporation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into contemporary linguistics exhibits a significant and transformational change in the discipline. AI technologies, which include natural language processing (NLP), machine learning, and computational linguistics, have significantly transformed the methods employed by linguists for studying, analyzing, and applying linguistic principles. However, as the integration of artificial intelligence (AI)…

Sociolinguistic Implications of Language Contact Situation and the Development of Kashmiri-Arabic Common Lexicon
Sharing lexicon is a direct outcome of a language contact situation. When two or more languages exist side-by-side while serving the communicative requirements in a particular social situation, they grow in an envelope and environment of linguistic exchange, and sharing of lexicon among them becomes a natural process. In a language contact situation, the speakers of one language are bound to incorporate linguistic items from their contact languag…
