This decision sparked considerable controversy among legal, human rights, and political communities both within the United States and internationally.<\/p>\n<p>Miss. Abdulrahman provided a comprehensive overview of the historical context surrounding the debate on official language policies in the United States. She analyzed the legal, political, and social dimensions of the executive order, particularly its implications for minority and immigrant communities\u2014over <strong>67 million<\/strong> of whom speak a language other than English at home.<\/p>\n<p>The presentation emphasized that the <strong>revocation of Executive Order 13166<\/strong>, which had previously mandated the provision of federal services in multiple languages, could pose significant challenges to <strong>social cohesion<\/strong> and <strong>cultural diversity<\/strong> in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Drawing on international case studies from <strong>Canada, India, and Switzerland<\/strong>, Abdulrahman offered a comparative analysis of multilingual governance. She argued that embracing linguistic and cultural diversity need not conflict with efforts to build a cohesive national identity; on the contrary, it can serve as a source of resilience and stability.<\/p>\n<p>The workshop generated active academic engagement and concluded with a set of recommendations, highlighting the need to <strong>strike a balance between national identity and the linguistic and cultural rights of diverse communities<\/strong> within democratic systems.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wpa-warning wpa-image-missing-alt alignnone size-medium wp-image-781\" src=\"https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629-300x135.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"135\" data-warning=\"Missing alt text\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629-1024x462.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629-768x347.jpg 768w, https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629-600x271.jpg 600w, https:\/\/en.cis.uobaghdad.edu.iq\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/116\/2025\/05\/\u0633\u062a-\u0633\u0645\u064a\u0631\u0629.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Translation Unit at the Center for Strategic and International Studies \u2013 University of Baghdad, led by Senior Chief Translator &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":190,"featured_media":781,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"no","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-780","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.8 -
