Revisiting the Past: Contribution of Counter-narratives in Liminal Formation of Identity in Yasmin Crowther's The Saffron Kitchen
In diasporic literature the question of identity is tangled with the question of history. This study aims at discussing how Yasmin Crowther reviews the Persian tradition in The Saffron Kitchen, her autobiographical novel which is mainly set-in early 60s, Iran.

Our artificial ants form colonies and self-organized foraging expeditions; our robots and simulated birds flock and cooperate on tasks; our genetic algorithm populations form species ...

One key debate within the sociology of aging and the life-course in the past decade has been focused on understanding the extent to which life course processes have become de-standardised. However, little attention has been devoted to the infrastructural processes that would support such a transition. This paper focuses on one of such standards, ‘biological age’, and the 40 year controversy aro...
متن کاملDoes Rheology Restrict the Secondary Settler Capacity?
Consideration of sludge rheology is very important for a proper solids transport and to obtain the necessary settler capacity. Although a true yield stress does not exist, large apparent viscosities at low shear rates inhibit an efficient sludge transport. Research indicates that the dimensionless ratio of gravity to viscous forces is an important operational parameter towards settler capacity....

However, transitional justice is commonly premised on the notion of a recent point of rupture or change from violence and oppression to a ‘new dawn’, and has therefore been less attuned to accommodating the long-term effects of colonialism.
