D.Litt. et Phil.

Shûrâ (consultation) as prescribed conduct is found in the Qur'ân (3:159, 42:36-38, 2:33). The Sunnah also refers to several occasions where the Prophet (S.A.W.) sought the advice of his companions. In his own life the principle was thus put to practice. The same custom was also, in varying degrees, part of Islâmic governance during the period of the rightly guided caliphs and in the subsequent Umayyad and Abbasid eras. Seen from a political perspective, the question researched in the thesis is what guidelines tradition provides for conducting shûrâ in its institutionalised or political form, namely majlis (gathering). A scrutiny of history showed that in the Prophetic epoch the consultative setting varied considerably and the advice of both the minority and the majority was accepted. A kernel group can, however, be discerned with whom the Prophet consulted regularly. Members of this majlis also played a role in the election of three of the rightly guided caliphs. However, in their time, due to the considerable expansion of the Islâmic Empire, several structures came into being, which competed with the existing majlis. In the subsequent Umayyad and Abbasid era, bureaucratic organisations seemingly completely overshadowed the consultative assembly. Due to the hereditary succession, the majlis, for example, played very little, if any, role in the appointment of the caliphs. Endeavours to rule according to the Sharî`ah was however a constant factor at all times. Deriving principles from history is difficult, particularly the modern world where Western political institutions and procedures have become established even in Muslim states. The question is whether the Western heritage should be accepted or Islamised. An obvious choice is the last-mentioned one. For the purpose of the thesis majlis is thus related to Parliament and ijmâ` to majority rule. The role of President and Prime Minister is correlated with that of the traditional Amîr. For all the procedures, institutions and functions, however, an attempt is made towards an Islâmic adaptation. For this purpose a study is first of all made of Saudi Arabia (Sunnite) and Iran (Shi`ite). Both have, as one of their governing institutions, a Majlis al-Shûrâ. In Saudi Arabia it is appointed by the king, in Iran it is elected by popular vote but remains under constant scrutiny of the Guardian Council. Although both the said systems of government are exemplary in many aspects, an alternative version is suggested in the thesis in order to overcome some shortcomings in the two systems. In describing the alternative system, attention is paid to questions such as the relationship of the people, the majlis and the amîr (leader). It is argued that the majlis should be chosen through general elections and that they, in turn, should elect the amîr. The principle of majority rule is thus accepted, but with a strong accent upon the requirement of moral and religious values and striving towards consensus in decisions. Arbitration is suggested in the case of…

M.A. (Semitic Languages and Cultures)

The aim of this dissertation is to analyse some of the prominent elements that constitute the discussion of same-sex sexuality among Muslims such as the distinction between sexual acts and identities and its effect on the construction of sexuality in Muslim societies, the religious and legal permissibility of particular sexual acts, and the intersection between the struggle for justice and equality and sexuality. The theoretical framework for this study is based on postcolonialism and queer theory. I argue that a fundamental rethinking of sex and sexuality in Islam and in Muslim societies needs to transpire in order for a more equitable state of affairs to come into existence. The current prejudice associated with same-sex sexuality requires a considered and erudite overhaul of how sexual relationships and gender are constructed in Islamic ethics and Muslim societies. I first consider the effect of sexual identities, namely a homosexual identity, and the consideration of same-sex sexual acts on the Muslim imagination. The notion of unnatural sexual impulses, sinful desires and the interrelationship between various sexual crimes are important considerations in the discourse on sexual diversity among Muslims. Second, I critically assess the argument in favour of same-sex marriages in Islam based on the assumption of stable identities and the inherent righteousness of a human rights framework. I assess the legal tools used set out some of the challenges of the human rights discourse which influences the struggle for homosexual rights and raise some question as to the efficacy of this strategy or mode of resistance and acceptance. Third, I focus on the nexus between sexual diversity, secularism and empire as sites of contestation and collaboration that continue to influence articulations and constructions of how to be Muslim and be also part of a sexual minority. Fourth, I attempt to chart a way forward for queer Muslims and argue in favour of protecting the conceptual and social space of the ‘closet’ as a liberatory and protective domain for queer Muslims where it is possible to balance both the demands of one’s faith and the expression of one’s sexuality.

▼ This is an interdisciplinary study combining the areas of Sociology, Religious Studies, and Adult and Community Education. Drawing from these disciplines, an investigation was made into the religious and socio-economic variables of development and their relation to family planning policies in the Muslim world. The primary focus in this study was upon the Muslim countries of: United Arab Republic (Egypt), Saudi Arabia, and Tunisia. Two main hypotheses were designed after reviewing the literature regarding theories and variables in demography and development in order to investigate how religious traditionalism and socio-economic developmental factors affect whether a government's formal population policy is antinatal or pronatal. The first hypothesis is that religious traditionalism has an inverse relation to a formal antinatal population policy. And the second hypothesis is that the level of development has a direct relation to a formal antinatal population policy. From secondary data, the findings of this thesis are two fold. The first part of the conclusion reveals that the results of many of the indicators used to investigate the original hypotheses did not support the hypotheses. Thus, a revision of the operationalization of the concepts of religion and development were made in the second part of the conclusion which yielded a recasting and re-evaluation of the data collected. The latter discussion raised questions concerning variables used in standard research to measure Islamic traditionalism and levels of socio-economic development. The variables used in research by the First and Second World researchers to measure Islamic traditionalism are being rejected by several Muslim Third World writers as being incorrect and often ethnocentric. The many standard socio-economic development measurements are also questioned, for they too are often ethnocentric and are measurements of the economic system and not always of the results of that system in terms of the welfare of the ordinary person. From the recent writings of Muslim Third World writers concerning Islam and M.D. Morris' new book, Measuring the Conditions of the World's Poor: The Physical Quality of Life Index (PQLI), in which he introduces a new measurement of "development" - the PQLI, a final analysis of this study is made. The final findings suggest that religion should be considered as a dependent variable to that society's secular forces. Development is believed to be an important factor affecting population policy, but is a concept which needs to be defined in terms of "societal development" and not as "economic development".

▼ Herding is an important stock market behaviour for investors and policymakers, it may affect market volatility, which investors need to understand to properly assess risks. Financial instability may deter risk-averse investors while benefitting investors seeking profit from market inefficiencies. Policymakers who understand herding impacts are better placed to improve the information available to investors. Herding behaviour in the Saudi equity market was examined between 2006 and 2016 using the method suggested by Change et al. (2000), from three related perspectives. Firstly, through its influence on oil market volatility, including during OPEC conference meetings. Results showed significant herding behaviour in most sub-periods. However, cascading was independent of oil market volatility, except during OPEC meetings in the global financial crisis period, 2008 - 2010. Secondly, through the impacts of social attitudes coinciding with Islamic festivals of Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Ashoura and Eid-ul-Adha. Up- and down-days for both markets and liquidity were considered in domestic and the influential US and oil markets, using appropriate vectors. Movements pre and post the 2008 Global Financial Crisis and the Arab Spring in 2010 were separately assessed. Results showed significant herding during Eid-ul-Fitar, Ashoura and Eid-ul-Adha, but, contrary to some studies, none during Ramadan. Thirdly, through its effects on regionally and culturally adjacent equity markets, particularly in GCC countries, with information spill-over from the US a factor. Results showed pronounced herding in all GCC equity markets affected by significant herding spilled-over from the Saudi market and insignificant spill-over from the US; indicating regional integration of markets with Saudi pre-eminent. Several findings are novel, including the impacts of Islamic festivals, other than Ramadan and oil price volatility during OPEC meetings, on herding behaviour: both have been largely ignored in most previous studies. Our results provide valuable insights, showing that herding and excess volatility recently observed in the Saudi equity market is not related to risk or information spill-over from oil markets.

▼ The research undertaken aims to contribute to the debate about market efficiency and market volatility in an Islamic context. The research relates to the Amman Stock Exchange (ASE) and covers the period 1992 to 2007. It undertakes quantitative analysis involving two key elements: first, testing for random walk and calendar anomaly effects in market returns and, second, modelling volatility in market returns. The thesis applies a series of standard econometric and statistical techniques to this issue. The key ‘novel’ contributions of this study relate to the focus on Islamic religious holiday effects and also the application of behavioural finance theoretical models to explain the findings in terms of the influence of social mood (mood misattribution) effects. These are approaches that have not been previously applied in the literature within an Islamic context. The author argues that the econometric and statistical techniques applied are ‘fit for purpose’. Standard methods are applied; however, these are applied in ‘novel’ ways in parts of the thesis. For example, moving-date calendar effects are modelled for the first time and the modelling of volatility makes use of interaction effects to explore the impact of interactions between different mood-influencing variables. The study begins by identifying that the ASE index returns do not follow a Random Walk. It then goes on to identify day-of-the-week effects. First trading day of the week effects found in relation to the first trading day that follows the Muslim holy day of Friday. Monthly calendar effects were also found. January or turn-of-the-year effects were found in the ASE similar to those found previously in some Western markets. However, the largest monthly effects were found in relation to the holy month of Ramadan. Most significantly, Ramadan was found to be the only month where the average daily returns were both statistically different from the other months in the year and also positive. This, it is argued in the thesis, is due to social mood (or mood misattribution) effects. The research looks beyond informational efficiency and develops a number of ‘novel’ contributions to research in this area in terms of both the empirical findings and the behavioural finance-related interpretation of these findings, as well as the influence of Islamic ethics in Amman’s stock market returns. The thesis also examines the relationship between seven behavioural mood-proxy variables and stock market returns. Fama (1991) argues that efficiency and volatility are unrelated. In this thesis, however, evidence is uncovered which suggests that this may not be the case. High levels of volatility were found at the start and at the end of the Ramadan holy festival; this volatility, it is argued, is related to social mood. This issue is examined further by exploring previously unstudied interactions between mood-related Ramadan effects and mood-related weather and biorhythmic effects. The results of this thesis, the author believes, provide strong evidence for the existence of…

▼ The study begins by examining the orthodox theory of discrimination as a possible model with which to evaluate the socio-economic basis of race relations in Rhodesia. It is argued that it is inadequate because the theory is not grounded in the settler-colonial system, its historiography and the peripheral capitalist social formation in Rhodesia in which a complex articulation between modes of production is found. A critique is then undertaken of the principal theories hitherto used to explain the course of Rhodesian economic development - namely, dualism and those termed neo-marxist. It is argued that Barber's modification of the dualistic model of W. A. Lewis is deficient particularly because of the absence of a theory of 'primitive accumulation' and also the lack of an analysis of the political economy of the 'labour transfer', the basis of peripheral capitalist development. Arrighi's 'neo-maraist' analysis of Rhodesian development is also criticized for its inadequate theory of 'primitive accumulation' and the lack of attention paid to the labour mobilization process. An analytical alternative is proposed, based on an explanation of 'primitive capital accumulation' and the specific forms of-labour utilization found in Rhodesia in association with particular modes of production existent during the period under review. An attempt is made to specify these modes and the social relations related thereto. The labour structures found in the economic system are then examined in the context of the income distribution pattern, the class structure of the social formation and the primary 'dynamic' of Rhodesian postwar development - industrialization. It is suggested that changes in labour policy in various modes of production were essentially concerned with ensuring the maintenance of a system of cheap labour whereby employers acquired labour-power below the cost of its own reproduction. The development of peripheral capitalism under conditions of settler colonialism required changes to labour policy. These modifications left the basic structures of the socio-economic system intact, although they gave rise to substantial pressures for change, e. g. from unions and African nationalism. The State has been particularly significant in containing these socio-economic and political pressures, especially in the field of labour policy. An attempt is made to identify the changes in labour mobilization that have taken place, to assess their impact on the nature of discrimination and underdevelopment, and to point out some of the more important features of the class formation process that have resulted from the development of capitalism in Rhodesia.

▼ This study aimed to compare the financial performance of Islamic banks and conventional bank in the MENA region. This was undertaken through examining the influence of bank specific factors (represented by bank size, capital risk, loan intensity, financial leverage, credit risk, operating ratio and Z-score) and macroeconomic factors (represented by gross domestic product (GDP) and inflation) on banks' financial performance (captured by return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE)). The underlying aim is to demonstrate that the difference in operational models of banks has an effect on financial performance. The study analysed data obtained from Bankscope and Worldbank Databank for 108 banks comprising 35 Islamic banks and 73 conventional banks from 15 countries (Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Morocco, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Tunisia, Qatar, Yemen, United Arab of Emirates) for the period 2004-2014. Thus, the study examines the financial performance of the two banking types for the periods before, during, and after the 2007/2008 global financial crisis. A deductive quantitative data analysis approach from a positivist epistemological perspective was employed using two research techniques: multivariate linear regression and non-linear artificial neural network model. The study has found that there are significant financial performance differences that exist between Islamic banks and conventional banks in the MENA region based on the financial variables examined. In respect to the impact of the 2008 financial crisis on the banking types in the MENA region, the study suggests that the conventional banks were affected relatively more than Islamic banks. Further, the study has revealed that credit risk and Z-score are key determinants of banks' financial performance in the MENA region. This suggests that effective credit and bankruptcy risk management could positively influence banks' performance. An increased investment in fixed assets, however, affects mainly conventional banks than Islamic banks. Similarly, the influence of bank size applies more to conventional banks than Islamic banks in the MENA region. When comparing the results obtained using the artificial neural network to those obtained using the multiple regression analysis, the study found that overall, the explanatory power obtained using the artificial neutral network was relatively higher. With a focus on the GCC countries, the study reveals that Islamic banks suffered relatively more than conventional banks from the 2008 global financial crisis, contrary to the results for the MENA region as a whole. Further, in addition to credit risk and Z-score, the study results suggest that increased bank capitalisation (capital risk) has a positive effect on banking performance in the GCC countries. However, increased financial leverage and operating ratio significantly affected conventional banks, and not Islamic banks, in the GCC countries. Contrary to the MENA region, bank size in the GCC countries impacts Islamic banks more than…

▼ This study offers some empirical insight into the problems and possibilities of economic integration in West Africa with particular reference to Ghana and the Entente Council States (i.e. Ivory Coast, Upper Volta, Niger, Dahomey and Togo). Recent developments in integration analysis have shown that the traditional theory of integration is largely inapplicable to the economies of LDCs. Economic integration in the case of LDCs should be treated as a strategy of economic development rather than a mere tariff issue. As a background to the study, the historical evolution of the current problems of intra-regional trade and development is discussed with special attention to the economic structures and geo-political configuration of divisions and fragmentations inherited from the colonial past. These have affected recent integration schemes in the region whose performances are appraised and their failures highlighted. Notwithstanding the structural problems of the economies of the area, the study sees a possibility of economic integration. It selects and applies a revised version of the Andics-Dosser model in evaluating the impact effects (gains) of market integration based on selected, existing regional industries (i.e. cement, chemical fertiliser, footwear and petroleum products) in central-west Africa, comprising Ghana and the Entente states. These are industries in which the economies of scale exist, which would justify an arrangement for gradual trade liberalization in the products of such industries within a regional context. Based on the aforementioned products the welfare benefits derivable from market integration in terms of four chosen variables, (domestic value added, national income, foreign exchange and capital cost) are quantified. The estimates, which utilise 1969 data, indicate that integration-induced improvement in the region's growth rate of GNP will be of the order of 0.796 in 1975, increasing to by 1980. Integration by itself does not ensure an automatic equitable distribution of the benefits it generates. The text discusses the possible polarization effects of integration as well as the revenue-loss aspects of tariff disarmament and goes on to make policy suggestions as to how these problems might be solved. The inherent political instability in the region is underlined as a major obstacle to integration but the limited scheme which the. study proposes, since it will entail a minimal loss of political sovereignty from the standpoint of prospective member states, is seen as likely to work if given the chance and policy guideposts are offered to this end.

▼ This study explores the prospects for the emergence of democratic regimes in developing countries in general and in Muslim countries in particular. This question has both intellectual and policy relevance for the 1990s and beyond. The optimistic view about the future of democracy has been challenged by Samuel Huntington who sees the status of democracy in the world in 1984 as not very different from what it was about ten years earlier. Huntington further claims that among the Islamic countries, "particularly those in the Middles East, the prospects for democratic development seem low." Huntington attributes this to the recent Islamic revivalism, particularly Shi'ah fundamentalism, and the poverty of many of the Muslim countries. This study will test and reject the thesis that Islam is directly responsible for the absence of democracy in the Muslim countries. A model to measure the society-state power index is proposed, with a control for Islam, to observe whether Islam plays a neutral role in the process of democratization or it is a force hindering the inauguration of democracy in Muslim countries. Support for a structural explanation of democratization is found. The failure by the developing countries to inaugurate democracy is due to the uneven distribution of socioeconomic and political power resources. The cultural explanations, e.g. the role of religion, are thus rejected. A total of 87 countries are included in a cross national regression analysis, consisting of 31 Muslim countries, 17 newly inaugurated democracies, and 39 other developing countries. The period under investigation covers 1970 through 1988. This study also has implications for the U.S. and other developed Western countries that are concerned with the persistence of authoritarianism in the developing countries. Some policy proposals are offered as to help establish democracy in developing countries. Advisors/Committee Members: Volgy, Thomas J. (committeemember), Green, Jerrold D. (committeemember).

The research subjects of this study are the Arab representations of the West. The aim is to record the competing views of Arab individuals and intellectuals in order to generate some understanding about the Arab attitudes towards the West. Also, a critical approach is brought by comparing the Arab representations with the neo-Orientalist theses, that presented Muslim representations of the West as rejecting, aggressive and anti-Western. The analysis is carried out from the viewpoint of social representations, inspired by Serge Moscovici. The method used is discourse analysis that unravels the similarities and differences between the representations to construct a meta-narrative on the Arab Muslim discourse about the West and Westerners. The second phase of the analysis consist of the comparison of the Arab Muslim representations with the neo-orientalist claims. The study is a meta research gathering former studies. The corpus consists of two kinds of data: 1) interviews carried out among different social groups in Egypt, Syria and Morocco; and 2) discourses from secondary sources of prominent Arab intellectuals. Of those figures, within the intellectual movements, that have influenced the Arab intellectual history since early 1820s, I present Rifa al-Tahtawi, Ahmad Faris al-Shidyaq, Jamal al-Din al-Afghani, Muhammad ‘Abduh, Taha Hussein, Sayyid Qutb, Michel ‘Aflaq, Ayatollah Khomeini, Osama bin Laden, Samir Amin, Mohamed A. Jabiri. From this study focusing on Arabs, different patterns of representing the West can be outlined. The study attests that among the studied, there is no exclusive evidence of rejecting attitude towards the West. This result differs from the assumptions presented by leading scholars Bernard Lewis, Samuel Huntington, and Ian Buruma and Avishai Margalit, and it highlights the fact that representations of the West frequently alter among Arab actors, whether religious or secular.

Les trois monothéismes conçoivent un Dieu créateur et ordonnateur du monde, révélé dans l’histoire, garant de toute justice et de tout équilibre, et déterminant l’autorité et les systèmes d’autorités. La théologie a informé le droit et les lois, l’économie et l’éthique des personnes et des États. L’islam, loin d’être homogénéisé dans ses approches économiques, financières et réglementaires, révèle par le biais d’un exemple concret, par l’industrie des services financiers islamiques, les différentes facettes de ce qu’est l’autorité dans un contexte musulman, international et en pleine évolution. Prenant en compte la dynamique des questions sectaires, géographiques et interprétatives, la thèse analyse cette force déterminante que sont les « autorités » en finance islamique. Ces dernières semblent déterminer la finance islamique dans ses formes les plus tangibles, en structurant des produits financiers islamiques. L’analyse comporte d’abord une approche théorique, ensuite une étude comparée des facteurs qui déterminent les décisions prises lors de la structuration de produits financiers islamiques. Ces structures sont en effet fondées sur des contrats financiers conformes aux principes de la sharia. Leur approbation par des membres de conseils de la sharia est-elle déterminée par une autorité régionale, par des autorités internationales ou par des autorités de régulation ? Ces autorités sont-elles conventionnelles ou religieuses ? Afin de bien évaluer la problématique non seulement de l’autorité en tant que telle mais aussi de l’équilibre complexe entre les différentes autorités, nous développons une analyse comparée du système de structuration des produits financiers islamiques par les autorités concernées, en fonction des zones géographiques, au moyen d’un échantillon de 121 membres de conseils de la sharia couvrant l’approbation de produits financiers islamiques au sein de 243 institutions financières islamiques sur 35 pays.

The three monotheistic religions refer to a God who is the all-powerful creator of all that exists, revealed throughout history, guarantor of justice and fairness, who is the ultimate moral authority. Theology advises some of the laws, economics and ethics of individuals and of states. Islam is not homogeneous in its economic, financial and regulatory approaches. However, through the financial services industry, it reveals in a tangible manner various facets of authority across Muslim contexts. These include contexts that are international and highly dynamic. Taking into account the delicate balance between sectarian, geographic and interpretive facets, the thesis analyses the determining forces that we refer to as authorities in Islamic finance. These contribute to the Islamic finance industry in its most tangible form in the structuring of Islamic financial products. Analysis is carried out initially theoretically. It is followed by a comparative study of factors affecting decisions pertaining to the structuring of Islamic financial products. These structures are based on financial contracts…

The main purpose of this thesis was to analyze the dissemination of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and to examine its determinants and consequences for the Islamic banks of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). In the fulfillment of the research objectives, 40 Islamic banks from the countries that make up the GCC were analyzed during the period from 2013 to 2017, which involved 200 observations to each group. With regard to CSR, an index was constructed to measure the level of disclosure in Islamic banks and conventional banks, based on 11 dimensions recommended by the Accounting and Auditing Organization for Islamic Financial Institutions (AAOFI) No. 7 published in 2010 (1985), Ismail (1986), and Dusuki (2008), were used in the literature on the dissemination of CSR. Statistical analysis included econometric regressions using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) method to examine the determinants and consequences of CSR disclosure in the sample selection of banks. The results indicated a level of disclosure of Islamic RSC of 41.05%, higher than the level of its conventional peers in the region that reached a mark of 30.65%. Using Corporate Governance (CG) mechanisms to measure the determinants of CSR disclosure, the survey found a positive and significant association between the disclosure of CSR and the size of the Board of Directors of the Islamic banks studied. Thus, evidence is provided that stronger corporate governance is associated with a higher level of CSR disclosure. Another result found was the significantly negative relationship of the CEO's Duality (CEOD) and the Audit Committee Size (ACS) with the disclosure of CSR. However, the results did not show a significant association between disclosure of CSR and other variables of corporate governance. To examine the economic consequences of CSR disclosure in Islamic and conventional banks, the study used two different proxies (Market to Book Value and Tobin's Q) to measure the value of the firm. The study found no significant relationship between the proxies analyzed. It is suggested that there is a strong need to improve the current CSR disclosure practice, especially in the Islamic banks of the GCC, imposing additional restrictions on the characteristics of the Board of Directors. The results corroborate the global debate on the need for corporate governance reform, providing insights into the role-played by corporate governance mechanisms in encouraging and enhancing CSR disclosure practices and opens up fertile ground for studies involving the influence of religious roots on practices

▼ Nowadays we face the rise of international terrorism in several parts of the world. With the adoption of the New Concept of NATO the formal proclamation of the North Atlantic Alliance's war against terrorism followed. This work will be carried out research in areas where sources of recruitment, becoming the main source of recruitment for terrorist groups. Those areas where the geopolitical significance has been updated for the 21st century and fall under the realm of Greece are southeast Europe, the Black Sea Area, and the Caucasus. The research will focus on political factors that prevail, encourage the formation and action of such military groups. Factors that usually occur either the irredentism or the sociopolitical oppression suffered populations from lack of rule of law, either end of the surge of religious fundamentalism. The above factors encourage the emergence and development of terrorism at regional and global levels. Regarding religious extremism, it is necessary to provide an analysis of political Islam in the region. The analysis will include the difference between political Islam and the form envisioned by terrorist groups, the "struggle" between the western state model and "unfreedom" of Muslim populations, but if the model multiculturalism of the Western world and in particular the European Union has achieved its purpose. Concluding its presentation about the influence of fundamentalist Islam, the study will include the interaction of globalization on international cooperation against terrorist groups and the impact of this on their cooperation in the Middle East. This survey will include the context of international conventions against terrorism, international law on human rights, investigation and prosecution of terrorist offenses , international crimes committed during the anti-terrorism and whether the counter-terrorism agencies of countries in need of modernization and reforms. The modernization of the legal framework is in direct interaction with the study of both terrorist groups and their actions, armed groups engaged in the fight in cooperation with national and international representatives. It will then analyze the legal framework surrounding the violence, the administration of the armed groups, the separation between interrogation and torture of terrorists and approach from the military standpoint. The survey aims to show how this partnership shows the sharing and handling of sensitive information and developed practices to combat international terrorism effectively. Going deeper, should assess the contribution of the use of military courts and immigration in the fight or the rise of terrorism respectively. Whether able regional states to cooperate in inter-judicial and other forms of that level. On the legal framework that has been employed in conjunction with the policy framework to combat international islamic terrorism at the local level, in areas which are developed action but also at an international level, underlining the contemporary character or not.

▼ This thesis aims to identify the status of management accounting practices in the Jordanian financial sector in terms of both its usage and sophistication level and to examine the contingency factors that influence that status. The main objectives of the research are: to obtain a broad overview of management accounting practices in general, including the extent of usage of management accounting practices; examine the sophistication level of management accounting practices and at which phase, based on the IF AC model, the Jordanian financial sector is currently placed; investigate the effect of the contingent variables upon both the extent of usage and the sophistication level of management accounting practices. To attain these objectives, a combination of research methods has been conducted, namely, questionnaire and semi-structured interview; 64 valid questionnaires were returned, giving a 67.3% response rate, followed by 14 interviews. Several statistical analyses were used to analyse the responses, namely, descriptive analysis, bivariate correlation analysis (KendalFs tau test and Kruskal-Wallis test), and multivariate statistical tests. The results of the life cycle stages revealed that 67.2% of the respondent companies are located in the first two stages. In terms of the usage of management accounting practices, the research reported that traditional practices are still widespread and highly used, rarely using the more sophisticated or advanced practices, and that there is a diversity of practices used in the financial sector context. In general, the research revealed that budgeting practices and financial measures are heavily used, and there is a lack of usage of decision making practices and strategic analysis practices. Concerning the sophistication level of management accounting practices, the research revealed that almost all of the Jordanian financial sector companies are located in the first stage by 64.1% and 29.7% of companies in the second stage based on the IF AC model, thus indicating the simplicity of information that they require. This, in turn, reflects the simplicity of practices that are used in the Jordanian financial sector. In terms of the association between each contingency variables and the extent of usage of management accounting practices, the research reveals that the age of the company (number of years since establishment), net sale growth, number of employees, sophistication of operations, professional certificates, life cycle stages, and business type have a significant impact on the extent of usage of management accounting practices. In addition, it reveals that the age of the company, sophistication of operations, attendance of training courses, professional certificates, life cycle stages, and business type are the main contingency variables that influence the sophistication level of management accounting practices. The research's findings provide a broad overview of management accounting practices in the Jordanian financial sector. This overview is vital in improving the…
