Opening Editorial of the First issue 2025

Abstract

We are pleased to present to our esteemed readers the first issue for the year 2025, which includes a collection of topics and research papers spanning various fields of science and human knowledge. Some of these studies address religious and linguistic aspects, while others tackle important issues and dimensions concerning contemporary Libyan society—especially at this critical stage of its history. Readers will find a study on shadow trading and smuggling, as well as research on the role of faculties of education in preparing teachers for the basic education stage. Another paper discusses the arbitrability of patent disputes, in addition to other significant topics. We hope that these articles and studies will stimulate further discussion and dialogue, as well as contribute to enriching the scientific library in the field of the humanities. We would also like to reiterate our encouragement to researchers to continue participating and contributing seriously, and to provide us with their scholarly work so that it may find its way to publication for the benefit of all intellectuals and interested readers.
