Abstract (English): The article addresses the topic of "brain drain" in the Arab context, highlighting the impact of colonialism on the functional entities that emerged afterward. The author emphasizes how these entities suffer from corruption and nepotism, leading to the destruction of prospects for modernization and creativity. The article also discusses how brain drain is not a choice but a result of the harsh conditions imposed by ruling regimes, contributing to a hemorrhage of competencies and reinforcing economic dependency. The experience of the Austrian writer Stefan Zweig is cited as an example of the forced expulsion of creative minds. [Extracted from the article]
Abstract (Arabic): تتناول المقالة موضوع "طرد العقول" في السياق العربي، مشيرة إلى تأثير الاستعمار على الكيانات الوظيفية التي نشأت بعده. يبرز الكاتب كيف أن هذه الكيانات تعاني من الفساد والمحسوبية، مما يؤدي إلى تدمير آفاق التحديث والإبداع. كما يناقش المقال كيف أن هجرة العقول ليست خيارًا بل نتيجة للظروف القاسية التي تفرضها الأنظمة الحاكمة، مما يساهم في نزيف الكفاءات ويعزز التبعية الاقتصادية. يُستشهد بتجربة الكاتب النمساوي شتيفان زفايغ كمثال على الطرد القسري للعقول المبدعة.
