Cultural Bridging between Anticipation & Fulfillment with Reference to Kim Barnes’s “In the Kingdom of Men”American Journal of Sociological Research 3 (2166-5451). 2013.In this paper, I tackle the relationship between East and West froma cultural perspective.Though the difference is wide, they have in common a considerable number of social norms.

Focalization Analysis in“Under the Volcano” & “Yacobian Building”; A Comparative StudyInternational Journal of Arts 2 (6). 2012.In this paper, I try to support Gerard Genette's conception of focalization, that was first proposed by him in his book Narrative Discourse (1980).

This fear goes harshly against the inner psychological need that drives us to maximize our personal abilities and resources which may vary from one person to…Read more

Actually, the scope of research in this paper exceeds one culture to include both the Western and the Eastern cultures, which have proved with evidence to share many attribu…Read more

Between Management and Leadership—A Comparative Study with Reference to (Sheikh Zayed AL Nahyan and Nelson Mandela)Open Journal of Social Sciences 6 (9): 18-30. 2018.In this paper, I am reflecting on Abraham Zaleznik’s paper “managers and leaders: are they different?” He was a prominent Harvard business school professor who attacked management style for depending only on rationality and achieving goals. He believed that managers and leaders are totally different persons. He described managers as inscrutable, detached and manipulative. Plus, while managers are interested in control and how things are done, leaders are more concerned with ideas and innovation.…Read more
