The Effects of Residential Segregation, Social Attitude, and Sense of Belonging on Dialect Contact in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia is a city where Saudis of both Bedouin and non-Bedouin social groups co-exist. Given that they are theoretically in daily contact, a question that naturally arises is whether the marked linguistic features of both social groups tend to weaken or level out altogether. My study aims to analyse the speech of both Bedouin and non-Bedouin speakers in order to investigate the effects of residential segregation, social attitude, and both groups’ sense of belonging on the outcome of dialect contact in Jeddah. It also aims to analyse three levels of linguistic variables to investigate whether both social groups are adopting certain levels of linguistic structure, and whether they do so equally among three levels.

Aird introduced House Joint Resolution 538 to ensure no person in the commonwealth is denied access to water. The measure recognizes the access to clean, affordable water as a human right.

Finnish councils are dominated by politicians from better-off neighbourhoods, and their decisions mean services are worse in less wealthy districts.
Those are the findings of a new study,
Love Thy (Elected) Neighbor? Residential Segregation, Political Representation and Local Public Goods, from the VATT Institute for Economic Research, which was published on Friday. The under-representation is likely due to the combination of lower turnout in poorer neighbourhoods and the tendency of voters to vote for local candidates despite the fact that elections are held at-large. This incentivises politicians to cater to the voters in their own neighbourhoods, said researcher
