Extractions: By Hada Sarhan AMMAN A one-day seminar titled `Scenarios Jordan 2020' aimed at exploring Jordan's future through an investigation of culture as an internal dynamic of collective social awareness was held on Sunday at Princess Sumaya University College for Technology (PSUCT). The seminar is the second in a series that explores future scenarios for natural and human resources, economics, society and culture. Future studies enable decision makers to form strategic decisions that could deal with what might happen and plan accordingly, say experts. "These scenarios are not predictions, but rather perceive futures in the present," said former minister Hani Mulki. "Scenarios are the most powerful vehicles for challenging our models. A good scenario is the one that is plausible and internally consistent," said Mulki. Anwar Zu'bi, a member of the cultural committee involved in organising Scenarios Jordan 2020, proposed three suggestive scenarios: Prevalent, modern and innovative. According to Zu'bi, the discussions on future cultural scenarios should focus on issues such as the symbiotic relationship between culture and religions; ideological choices; the relationship between the Arab world and its regional and global context; the universality of values; the future of education and enhancing contemporary culture; patriarchy visà-vis globalisation and political and economic liberalisation; the role of civic institutions; peace and the role of power in protecting peace; pan-Arab national security; and social equilibrium.

The Ammonites and the kingdoms of Edom, Gilead, and Moab, situated east of the Jordan River, are referred to repeatedly in the Bible. These kingdoms were successively conquered by, or made tributary to, the Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, and Romans. Jordan was wrested from the Byzantine Empire by the Arabs between 633 and 636 and has since remained an Arab-Islamic country. During the Crusades parts of Jordan were governed by Christians. From 1517 until 1918 Jordan was ruled by the Ottomans (see Ottoman Empire).

Extractions: BRIEF HISTORY KING HUSSEIN PHOTOGRAPHY GALLERY DOCUMENT ARCHIVES ... BACK TO HASHEMITE KINGDOM OF JORDAN HOME PAGE Jordanian Culture Lying at the crossroads between East and West, between crisp rural desert and bustling metropolises, between ancient times and modernity, is the Hashemite Kingdom. Never has there been a place on Earth that has evolved so much and yet changed so little. From the 1976 diesel Mercedes Taxis on the streets of Amman to the giant Nabataean architecture carved into the mountain facades of Petra, Jordan offers a culturally rich and diverse environment. From the food and music to the festive rooftop parties on Holidays, Jordan is a unique experience. HOLIDAYS CUISINE Jordan's national dish is known as mansaf; this is a whole stewed lamb, cooked in a yoghurt sauce and served on a bed of rice. Maglouba is a meat, fish or vegetable stew served with rice. Musakhan is chicken with onions, olive oil, pine seeds and seasoning cooked in the oven on a thick loaf of Arab bread.

Extractions: PEOPLE AND CULTURE In 1990 the United Nations estimated the population of Jordan at 4 million people . About one fifth live on the West Bank of the Jordan river. Since the wars of 1948, 1967, and the war in The Lebanon, about 1.3 million people have been registered as refugees by the UNRWA. Officially, the number of Palestinian refugees is lower than 50%, but according to unofficial estimates the exact number might be around 60%. Jordan is the only Arab country that grants Palestinian refugees full citizenship. Thanks to the common religion (Islam) and the common language (more than 90% of the people are Arabs) there is in fact little difference between the refugees and the local Jordanians. However, during political crises hidden differences tend to become more apparent. The largest ethnic minority are the 35.000 Circassians who emigrated to Jordan from the Caucasus at the end of the 19th century. In Jordan also live small groups of Armenians, Kurds and Turks. Since a few years the number of foreign workers from Egypt, South-East Asia and the Indian subcontinent has been growing. About 93% of the population are Sunni Muslims . The most important religion in Jordan is Islam . Most Jordanian Muslims, including the non-Arab Circassians, belong to the Sunni sect of Islam. Islamic law forbids eating pig and drinking alcohol, and this law is followed to a greater or lesser (generally lesser) extent throughout Jordan. Islam also has a tendency to divide the sexes, and you might find that many eating establishments only welcome men. Most of these will, if asked, show you to the 'family room', an area set aside for women. In the area close to the Syrian border live the Druses, whose ancestors left the mainstream Islam faith and founded their own belief under the guidance of Ismail al-Darazis.
