title: Strategies for peasant farmer development : An evaluation of a rural development project in northern Sierra Leone.
Creators: name: Karimu, John Arouna
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1981

description: This study seeks to focus on an assessment of the Social and economic impact of policies adopted by a World Bank-supported rural development scheme to develop improved rice production in North-Central Sierra Leone: The Northern Area Integrated Agricultural Development Project (lADP). Particular attention is paid to an examination of the spatial impact of the project, flecause lADP is designed to promote' development for 'smaller' and 'poorer' farmers, attention is focused on separating different groups of farmers and attempting to measure their responses to, and potential for participation in the process of rural transformation. Allocation of infrastructural facilities within the project area is intended by project planners to facilitate project activities in 'difficult' areas and to open up hitherto 'remote' communities to the exchange sector of the economy. This study attempts to argue the point that there is little evidence of any correlation between the pattern of resource allocation and 'need' defined in terms of population concentration, agricultural resource potentials and/or inadequacy of existing facilities. The following typify some of the detailed conclusions derived from this study: (a) The effect of lADP credit policy is to increasingly direct available loan capital to 'wealthier' farmers who are committed to a process of transition from farming to merchant capital - dominated trading sectors of the national economy. (b) That farm labour supply imposes a greater constraint on efforts to increase agricultural output than the supply of suitable farmland. Labour shortages are widespread and reflect the heavy outmigration of young males to urban c entres. (c) Labour 'companies' or work groups supply significant amounts of farm labour inputs in the study area. The existence of these work groups acts to stratify the rural communities into three categories of peasants: 'poor' 'rriddle and 'wealthy' peasants. (d) The distribution of project farmers shows a reaspnabh' even response over the project area. Spatial allocation of project infrastructure has, however, tended to produce an anomalous pattern. Consequently, there are some inadequacies in the emerging spatial structure. (e) Overall the results emphasise the need to take account of farmers' views and understanding of the process of agrarian change.

title: Noun phrase structure in Modern Persian.
Creators: name: Hassanian-Esfahani, Hossein
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1981

description: This study is concerned with the internal structure of the noun phrase in the spoken form of Modern Persian, The theoretical framework is based essentially on Phrase Structure grammar, and is in the form of a three-level version of the X-bar Convention notation. That is, for every lexical category X, the Phrase Structure grammar is assumed to consist of three hierarchic syntactic categories X', X'', and X''', each of which can be expanded to dominate a head and various modifiers. This thesis consists of five chapters (including the Introduction) and a concluding section. The function of chapter one is to provide some clarification of the subject, the language, and the theoretical framework utilized in this study. The chapter also explains the motivation for the subject studied, as well as the reason for employing a three-level hypothesis of the X-bar Convention for the analyses presented. Chapter two introduces noun phrases and explores the constituents which form them. Each of such constituents is then considered in the chapters that follow. In introducing noun phrases, chapter two also deals with the categorization of noun phrases and their distinguishing features, in particular those associated with definiteness/ indefiniteness. In addition to this, the chapter presents a study on demonstratives. Chapter three begins with a definition of adjectives, showing that a satisfactory definition for these constituents can only be based on four primary characteristics. The question of adjectives in comparative constructions and coordination is also dealt with in this chapter. Chapter four is dedicated to the discussion of quantifiers, These constituents are shown to consist of different types, each of which is distinguished by particular characteristics. Chapter five covers the structure of relative clauses and examines the constituents which form such structures. In addition to this, chapter five investigates the process of pronominalization within relative clauses. Finally, the concluding section consists of a comprehensive set of Phrase Structure rules which are capable of generating all instances of grammatical noun phrases in Modern Persian without the use of transformations.

description: The statistical basis for conventional full-waveform inversion (FWI) approaches is commonly associated with Gaussian statistics. However, errors are rarely Gaussian in non-linear problems like FWI. In this work, we investigate the portability of a new objective function for FWI applications based on the graph-space optimal transport and $κ$-generalized Gaussian probability distribution. In particular, we demonstrate that the proposed objective function is robust in mitigating two critical problems in FWI, which are associated with cycle skipping issues and non-Gaussian errors. The results reveal that our proposal can mitigate the negative influence of cycle-skipping ambiguity and non-Gaussian noises and reduce the computational runtime for computing the transport plan associated with the optimal transport theory.

title: The phonology and morphology of the Mahri noun.
Creators: name: Morris, M. J.
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1981

description: The thesis is divided into two main parts, phonology and morphology. In the phonology, long vowels, short vowels and diphthongs are discussed; their incidence in patterns; and the variants which can occur in certain phonetic contexts. Stress and syllabication are also discussed, and the section ends with a brief discussion of anaptyxis and elision. The section on morphology begins with the discussion of patterns of singular tri-radical nominal forms, with and without feminine markers, and discusses the frequency of occurrence of such patterns throughout the sample. The singular patterns are discussed in order of complexity of pattern, viz.: CvCC, GvCvG, CwGwG, etc. This is appropriate only with the singular patterns, whose number and variety lend themselves to such treatment. In all other sections, patterns are discussed in order of frequency of occurrence. The section on tri-radical patterns ends with examples of rare singular tri-radical patterns, for which a single example only was attested. A section on singular and plural quadriliteral (strictly speaking quadri-radical) patterns follows, the quadriliteral forms being divided into those with four differing radicals, those with reduplicated 2 geminate radicals, those with reduplicated C , and those with redupli- 3 cated C . The dual is briefly discussed. (The dual is obsolescent in M nominal forms, though occurring freely in verbal forms.) A section on external plurals follows. While plurals with masculine external suffixes are relatively infrequent, plurals with feminine external suffixes occur freely, both adjectivally, nominally and in participial forms. The most commonly occurring broken plural patterns are examined next. A section is devoted to illustrating the plural formation where final syllable /-eeC/, /-iiC/ in the singular becomes /-ooC/, /-uuC/ in the plural - a plural formation which occ\irs commonly in M, and one which is peculiar to the MSA languages as a whole. Other broken plural patterns are then discussed individually, according to their frequency of occurrence in the sample. The section on plural patterns ends with examples of rare plural patterns, for which a single example only was attested. Since triliteral and quadriliteral forms with /m-/ prefixes are considered separately in the text. Verbal nouns - which as gerunds, or nouns describing the action of the verb, have no plural - are discussed in a separate section, both those arising from simple verb forms, and those arising from derived verb forms. /m-/ prefixed singular forms are then discussed (the plurals of such forms being included in the section on broken plural patterns). The participial patterns are described in a separate section, since they are completely regular and predictable. Those arising from both simple and derived verb forms are illustrated. The final section covers adjectival patterns, discussed separately from the substantive forms since they are inflected for masculine and feminine as well as singular and plural.
La structure de l’abdomen des Sarcophaginae (Diptera, Sarcophagidae)

description: THE STRUCTURE OF THE ABDOMEN OF THE SARCOPHAGINAE (DIPTERA, SARCOPHAGIDAE)

One makes the analysis of the sclerites of the preabdomen and the postabdomen of Sarcophaga carnaria LINNAEUS and one finds a lot of new data on the segmentation and the homology of the Sarcophaginae. As continuation, one gives a new and reasonable interpretation of the certain postabdominal sclerites, that has been considered until now as neoformations. In the terminalia of the males one recognizes the VII+VIII sternite thus, in the tergosternum, the hypandrium or the IX sternite of the authors; one notices the existence of the IX sternite in the apodeme of the penis or the phallapodema of the authors; one specifies for the first time that the IX tergite is to the basis of the phallic exoskeleton, with all its apophyses and appendix; one confirms that the pregonites drifts from the VIII sternite, the postgonites drifts from the IX sternite, the paralobes drifts of the X sternite and the cerci of the X tergite - precisely as the Syrphidaes. In what the postabdomen of the females concerns, one established that this one drifts of the involvement of the VI+VII segments (the VI segment of the authors), the VIII segment and the IX segment (the VIII segment of the authors).

Key words: Diptera, Sarcophaginae, abdominal segmentation, homology of the abdominal sclerites.

LA STRUTTURA DELL'ADDOME DEI SARCOPHAGINAE (DIPTERA SARCOPHAGIDAE)

Si fa l'analisi degli sclerites del preabdomen e del postabdomen di Sarcophaga carnaria Linnaeus e si trova molti dati nuovi sulla segmentazione e l'omologia dei Sarcophaginae. Come seguito, si dà un'interpretazione nuova e ragionevole dei certi sclerites del postabdomin, che sono stati considerati finora come neoformations. Nel terminalia dei maschi si riconosce così, lo sternite VII+VIII nel tergosternum, il hypandrium o lo sternite IX degli autori; si nota l'esistenza dello sternite IX nell'apodème del pene o il phallapodema degli autori; si precisa per la prima volta che il tergite IX è alla base del dermascheletro fallico, con tutti i suoi apophyse ed appendici; si conferma che i pregonite derivano dello sternite VIII, i postgonite derivano dello sternite IX, i paralobes derivano dello sternite X ed i cerques del tergite X - esattamente come i Syrphidae. In ciò che riguarda il postabdomen delle femmine, invalso che questo derivato della partecipazione dei segmenti VI+VII (il segmento VI degli autori), il segmento VIII ed il segmento IX (il segmento VIII degli autori).

Parola-chiave: Diptera, Sarcophaginae, segmentazione addominale, omologia degli sclerites addominali.

description: The Pine processionary caterpillar Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Den. et Schiff.) (Lepidoptera: Thaumetopoeidae) is a very dangerous lepidopterous pest spread in all mediterranean area. A preliminary survey was conducted with 3 different strains of Steinernematid entomopathogenic nematodes in the nests of pine processionary caterpillars in a Pinus halepensis Miller reforestation at “Pulicchie” (Gravina in Puglia, 338 m a.s.l.) of Apulia Region (southern Italy). A suspension of 300,000 IJs in 20 ml of gel (Idrosorb SR 2002 - Nigem®) was employed in each nest and mortality recorded every 10 days, for 30 days.

The results of this preliminary experiment pointed out:

- a real feasibility to reduce the overwintering larval populations injecting gel suspension of Steinernema feltiae IJs in their nests;

- the persistence in the nests of IJs for more than 20 days from treatment;

- the possibility of a limited number of nematodes to complete their life cycle in the larvae of T. pityocampa;

- very low effects on the parasite Phryxe caudata Rond. (Diptera: Tachinidae).

Key words: aqueous suspension, gel suspension, IJs injection, nests, Pinus halepensis, reforestation, Phryxe caudata.

PROVE PRELIMINARI PER IL CONTROLLO DI POPOLAZIONI SVERNANTI DI Thaumetopoea pityocampa (DEN. ET SCHIFF.) (LEPIDOPTERA: THAUMETOPOEIDAE) CON Steinernema feltiae (FILIPJEV, 1934) (NEMATODA: STEINERNEMATIDAE)

Sono state effettuate preliminari prove di controllo con Steinernema feltiae in un rimboschimento di Pinus halepensis Miller gravemente infestato da Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Den. et Schiff.) (Lepidoptera: Thaumetopoeidae). Una sospensione di 300.000 IJs in Idrosorb SR 2002 (Nigem®) è stata iniettata nel gennaio 2000 in ciascun nido contenente larve svernanti del lepidottero. La mortalità è stata verificata ogni 10 giorni, per 30 giorni. I risultati hanno evidenziato:

- la capacità di S. feltiae di ridurre le popolazioni larvali svernanti di Thaumetopoea pityocampa tramite iniezioni di gel con IJs nei nidi;

- la persistenza di IJs nei nidi per più di 20 giorni dal trattamento;

- la abilità da parte dello Steinernematide di completare il ciclo nelle larve di T. pityocampa, anche se in un numero limitato;

- basso livello di parassitizzazione nei confronti delle larve di Phryxe caudata Rond. (Diptera: Tachinidae).

Parole chiave: sospensione in acqua, sospensione in gel, iniezioni con IJ, nidi, Pinus alepensis, rimboschimento, Phryxe caudata.

 Etimologia: Latim, spilotus = manchado, alusivo ao padrão de colorido dos élitros.
Colorido geral vermelho-acastanhado. Faixas longitudinais amarelo-esbranquiçadas: na fronte, de cada lado, com prolongadas até a base dos tubérculos anteníferos; no centro do vértice; nos lados atrás dos lobos oculares inferiores até as genas. Lobos oculares superiores com seis fileiras de omatídios, separados ente si por distância igual à triplo da largura de um lobo. Antenas (fêmea) atingem o ápice dos élitros na ponta do antenômero VI. Antenômeros III, IV com anel basal de pubescência esbranquiçada; VI com metade basal com pubescência esbranquiçada.
Protórax com lados abaulados, revestido por pubescência acastanhada com faixas e manchas de pubescência branco-amarelada densa: faixa estreita transversal junto à margem anterior; duas manchas subarredondadas de cada lado da metade anterior do pronoto; faixa oblíqua a cada lado do terço posterior, emarginadas no meio. Partes laterais do protórax com mancha de pubescência amarelada na parte posterior. Esternos torácicos com pubescência acinzentada e manchas de pubescência amarelada densa no parte posterior do mesepisterno e na metade posterior do metasterno.
Cada élitro com 10 manchas pequenas de pubescência esbranquiçada como na figura 7; seis dorsais e quatro na declividade lateral; pontuação mais concentrada no dorso da metade basal. Extremidades elitrais truncadas com espinho externo.
Extremidades dos metafêmures não ultrapassam as extremidades elitrais. Meio das tíbias com anel de pubescência esbranquiçada. Dorso do tarsômero I com pubescência esbranquiçada. Revestimento do pubescência branca: borda apical do urosternito II; urosternitos III e IV e base do urosternito V.

title: A descriptive study of the verbal piece in Ebira (a language of Kwara State of Nigeria).
Creators: name: Adive, John Raji
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1984

description: This study aims at presenting an adequate description of the verbal piece which forms the core of the grammar of Ebira language. Ebira is one of the lesser known languages of Nigeria in which little scholarly work has yet been done. Ebira is my mother tongue. Chapter One gives the general introduction and describes the location (with sketch maps), the linguistic and cultural background of the language, and summarises the linguistic framework of the study. Chapter Two gives a description of the phonology, including the vowel harmony system, essential to an understanding of the grammar of the language. Chapter Three describes syntactic juncture features which include the vowel elision patterns and morpho-phonemic tone changes which affect the verbal piece. Chapters Four, Five, and Six form the major part of the thesis and describe the verbal piece in its various structures, functions and its distribution in the phrase, the clause, and sentence including the serial verb constructions. Chapter Seven concludes the thesis with an analysed narrative text demonstrating, in typical connected speech, the various units described. Appendix 1 is a chart of monosyllabic verbs in the language, Appendix 2 shows the list of monosyllabic verbs, and Appendix 3 presents some sample spectrograms showing words of contrastive vowel harmony sets.

title: Aspects of economic policy in Egypt 1970-80.
Creators: name: Rivlin, Paul
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1984

description: This Thesis analyses Egyptian economic policy making in the 1970s. Despite recommendations for decentralisation and greater use of market forces, only limited reforms occurred. These resulted in a big increase in resources available and the development of new sectors. A central hypothesis put forward is that the interaction of the sectors made reform hard. These were strong incentives to maintain the status quo and not decentralise public sector plus government decision making. These included the need to maintain employment in the public services in view of the overall shortage of jobs. There was also pressure to maintain the country's socialist legacy so as to maintain the loyalty of the urban working classes. The impact of rent seeking activity is looked at as a source of inertia, preventing reform. As a result of these pressures the government felt able to reform the foreign sector but not the domestic economy. Changing the trade and exchange systems would create new opportunities which were not available, or not thought to be available in industry and agriculture. The problems encountered in economic policy making are examined in four broad areas. The investment and planning system is analysed in order to see how consistent and comprehensive development strategy was. Pricing policy is dealt with in relation to cotton and public industry because of its importance in the economy. The implications of these policies are then examined in terms of public finance and the monetary consequences of the budget deficit. Finally, the foreign sector is looked at with special attention to the areas of opportunity: oil revenues, Suez Canal tolls and emigrant remittances. Conclusions are then drawn about the effects of the liberalisation and the reasons why it took such a partial form.

title: An intonational study of Kuwaiti Bedouin Arabic.
Creators: name: Khalifa, Fatima Ebrahim
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1984

description: The present study deals with the intonation of Kuwaiti Bedouin Arabic (KBA). This is the product of an earlier Central Arabian intonation type which is yielding to the speech patterns of the majority of the population. It does not contrast very extensively with standard Kuwaiti. The main intonation systems of the dialect are shown and illustrated. Some indication is given of what intonations are dying out and what usages have survived and reasons are suggested for why they have survived. Chapter One traces the background of the people, their origin and settlement patterns. Reading conventions and the method of indicating intonation are provided. Chapter Two reviews what has been said in the literature, and treats the most relevant work in English and Arabic. Chapter Three shows the intonation patterns of KBA, their contours and what they communicate. Some visible intonation contour traces from a speech meter are included. Chapter Four exhibits the sentence types distinguished by intonation, and shows what tones go with what kind of sentence. Since attitude is diffused in the system and no single utterance can be said to be without emotion, attitude becomes a very difficult factor to contrast in the analysis, because one cannot fix exact emotions that go with specific tones. However, the writer tries to deal with the situations in which the particular utterance is associated with specific tones. Chapter Five provides three main models that intonation can display according to Kalliday's well known contrastive categories, which are tonality, tonicity and tone, to show how speakers manipulate their intonation patterns to fit their communication needs. Chapter Six ends with a short summary to pinpoint the main findings in the thesis. The appendix consists of some texts of different topics and their translations.
title: Some Neo-Assyrian provincial administrators.
Creators: name: Ahmad, Ali Yaseen
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 1984

description: Since there is no previous study of the precise role and function of Neo-Assyrian administrators this thesis first sets the background by defining the Assyrian 'homeland' (Kernland) and the expansion of provinces outwards from it. It examines the terminology used in this context as well as the methods of controlling newly acquired territories and their annexation into, the Neo-Assyrian provincial framework as reorganized by Tiglath-pileser III (Chapter I). The office of provincial-governor, the hel-pahete and sakin-mdti , is then examined in detail (Chapter II), as are those of the subordinate officials, the rab-aldni and sanu (Chapter III). Full lists of all these officials, together with the place with which they were associated, are given in figures following each chapter as an aid to future research.

description: Self-management has increased in recognition in stroke research and rehabilitation along with growing trends of shorter hospital stays and more patient-centred care. Family members are key persons in the self-management process, but their views and experiences of self-management have not been studied in detail. This study aimed to explore family members’ understanding of self-management, the strategies they use and the challenges they face when providing support. For this descriptive study, semi-structured interviews with family members (n = 27) were conducted. Data were analysed using inductive content analysis. The analysis resulted in three main categories and eight subcategories. Most family members saw self-management as performing practical tasks, such as daily living activities and rehabilitation training. However, family members described a broad range of actions to support self-management, including emotional and motivational support. They found it challenging to give the right amount of support and expressed a need of more information after discharge. Family members’ conceptualisations of self-management differ from the strategies they use to provide support. A clearer understanding of self-management as a collective process can benefit the development and delivery of efficient self-management support. Family members are co-managers to people with stroke, as part of a collective approach to self-management.Health services should aim at enhancing family members’ understanding of self-management and strengthen their role as co-managers.Self-management interventions can promote a holistic perspective by guiding family members and balancing their involvement.

title: The Dispensary Movement in Bombay Presidency: Ideology and Practice. 1800-1875.
Creators: name: Blake, Jennifer

description: Colonial medical history in India has been a source of growing research during the latter half of the last century. However, historians have tended to situate the dispensaries in a minor role, suggesting that the dispensaries had relatively little to say about the dynamics between Indian and European society during the nineteenth century. But the idea of dispensary institutions in England being applied to India was a challenge to accepted Indian medical practice, compounded by the fact that India had no comparable organisations. Money, or the lack of it, was a constant theme, but this thesis has principally focussed on Bombay Presidency, where uniquely, the early establishments of these institutions were chiefly funded and approved by Bombay council. The dispensary movement was a decisive factor in the history of colonial medicine in India, shaping attitudes and opinions as to the level of medical care that should be provided, what kind, and for whom. With the intention of promoting western medical science among the people, it was hoped that the mercantile and ruling classes would become involved with the dispensaries; and this they did, but not as patients. The sick poor remained their principle clients. The idea of the dispensaries did however filter through society, and the idea set in motion changes in medical education, charitable gift giving, and the official financing of these units. This thesis will show how the dispensaries invoked a common interest between the two cultures of east and west, between the rich and the poor. Their importance is examined to see if the idea was adequately related to the needs of Indian society, especially the poor, the very people that the English dispensaries had been opened for; and to what extent a European idea became an integral part of Indian medical practice.
title: A comparative study of Thai and Malay short stories written by regional writers from Southern Thailand and Northern Malaysia.
Creators: name: Saleh, Nureeyan
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 2004

description: This thesis offers a comparative examination of short stories written by writers from southern Thailand and northern Malaysia, namely Phaithuun Thanyaa, Kanokphong Songsomphan, S. Othman Kelantan and Azizi Haji Abdullah. The texts have been analyzed within the framework of comparative and reception approaches to highlight the similarities and differences between Thai and Malay short stories. An attempt has been made to identify their respective unique qualities. This study asserts that the authors use their work as a means of communicating an account and portrayal of the particular identities of southern Thailand and northern Malaysia and, more generally, of their countries as a whole. The regions of southern Thailand and northern Malaysia are chosen because of their particular political, social and historical interaction. Moreover, the short stories are chosen because, in both countries, they are used as a vehicle of self-expression and of social criticism. Furthermore, this study also shows that Thai and Malay writers are influenced by their oral tradition and the didactic aims of producing literary works. This study comprises six chapters including an introduction and a conclusion. All chapters will address the significance of regional factors found in Thai and Malaysian short stories. Among the regional issues which form an element of this study are history, politics, religions, animistic beliefs, and ethnic perceptions. In conclusion this thesis contends the significance of the region as writers' source of inspiration yet the regional problems they have raised reflect the authors' commitment to their national society and religion and their sensibilities towards their national culture.
title: The Dasanami-Samnyasis: the integration of ascetic lineages into an order.
Creators: name: Clark, Matthew James
Publisher: name: SOAS University of London
Year: 2004

description: This thesis examines the history and practices of the Dasanami-Samnyasis, one of the largest sects of Indian renunciates, founded, according to tradition, by the famous advaita philosopher Sankaracarya, who may have lived in the eighth century CE. It is argued that it is highly improbable that Sankaracarya founded either the sect or the four (or five) main Dasanami monasteries, which are the seats of reigning Sankaracaryas. The locus of identity for the Dasanamis (meaning 'ten names') lies in several short texts, known as mathamnayas, which were most probably produced around the time the Dasanamis became organised as an order, in the late sixteenth or seventeenth century. The political and religious circumstances of the time provide an adequate---though not definitive---context for the production of a distinct Hindu identity for the sect. The process of forming an identity integrated several lineages of ascetics, some of which had no previous connection to each other. There are two main branches of the order: one being what might be called the Brahmanical monastic advaita tradition, extensively promoted for the first time by the early Vijayanagara rulers in the fourteenth century; the other being the military branch of naga-s, who have a non-orthodox, semi-Tantric background, and who were particularly conspicuous when they served in the standing armies of various north Indian regents during the eighteenth century. Initiation procedures illustrate the merging of the two branches. The contribution of this thesis to the study of religions is to provide, for the first time, an account of the history of the Dasanamis that is an alternative to that espoused by the orthodox tradition, and to illustrate the various and complex roles that samnyasis have played---and continue to play---in Indian religious history.
