reality and consciousness has often taken a unilateral character in the discussions about it,
whether among sociologists in particular, or among the scholars in social sciences in
general, where the focus was on the identification of the pre-existing of consciousness or
the existence.
In so far as the difference in responses has enriched sociology with opinions and theories
to the extent that it has left a profound impact on the point of view of the assessment of
what is the primary and what is marginal in the relationship between consciousness and
social existence. Apart from these unilateral and sharp estimates, the present study attempts
to clarify the relationship between social consciousness and social existence through what

This research aimed to identify the reality and obstacles of corporate social
responsibility disclosure in firms subject to the regulations of the Syrian Commission on
Financial Markets & Securities. To achieve the purpose of the study, data was co
llected for
29 firms registered in the Commission whereby the managers of these firms responded to
the questionnaire. Data was analyzed using percentages, frequencies, and Wilcoxon Signed
Ranks Test.
Results of the study showed that the Syrian firms include social responsibility issues
in their work strategies, and that the Syrian government worked on the issuance of many
laws that regulate and guide the work of firms in the field of social responsibility.
However, the results also revealed that the weakness in legislations related to the
disclosure of corporate social responsibility; the weakness in the firm’s culture towards the
concept of social responsibility; the costs arising from disclosure and related to the
collection and dissemination of information; and the negative impact of disclosure costs on
the profitability of the disclosing firm are all obstacles toward corporate social
responsibility disclosure.

This paper aims to examine William Beckford's Vathek (1786) in
terms of the major impacts that have helped him to compose such a
novel. The three main factors that influenced Beckford are: his
experience during his residence at Fonthill Abbey; his
interest and
readings in translations of the Arabian tales, The Arabian Nights; and his
combination of fantasy with the soberly sensual grace of Eastern imagery.
Despite the fact that Vathek is an eccentric short novel, it is based on a
realistic protagonist, Al-Wathek (A.D.815-846), the 9th Caliph of Abassid
dynasty, known for his love of food, and his knowledge in music, poetry,
astronomy and logic.
