A Leader Despite Himself? An Analysis Of The Statesmanship Of Alija Izetbegovic, 1990-2000, Jason Edward Carson Apr 2009

A Leader Despite Himself? An Analysis Of The Statesmanship Of Alija Izetbegovic, 1990-2000, Jason Edward Carson

Theses

Although much attention and scholarship have been devoted to the 1992-1995 Bosnian War, very little work has been done on one of the key figures of that conflict, Alija Izetbegovi¿. No biography exists of Izetbegovi¿ in English, nor is there even a serious journal article which thoughtfully analyzes Izetbegovi¿¿s statesmanship during the war. There is a great need then for a work which intelligently analyzes Izetbegovi¿¿s actions during that turbulent time, something I have attempted to do in this thesis. I argue that Alija Izetbegovi¿ was a flawed political leader, who because of reasons of temperament and religious belief was …

A Value Oriented Legal Theory For Muslim Countries In The 21st Century: A Comparative Study Of Both Islamic Law And Common Law Systems, Rahma Hersi Apr 2009

A Value Oriented Legal Theory For Muslim Countries In The 21st Century: A Comparative Study Of Both Islamic Law And Common Law Systems, Rahma Hersi

Cornell Law School Inter-University Graduate Student Conference Papers

A legal tradition is not the same thing as a legal system, although the legal system inevitably forms part of the legal tradition and vice versa, a legal system may be used to refer to an operational set of rules, procedures and institutions. This paper will take a critical look at the legal sources used in both the Islamic Law and Common law systems as well the methodologies interpreting these sources. The pluralistic nature of many of the extant legal systems, calls for an analysis of the interpretation of law and the related sciences. Whereas the spread of globalization in …

Doctors And Imams: Investigating The Integrated Schools Of Mombasa, Kenya, Beth Ann Williams Apr 2009

Doctors And Imams: Investigating The Integrated Schools Of Mombasa, Kenya, Beth Ann Williams

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Since the arrival of Europeans in the 19th century there has been tension within the Swahili community between the traditional Islamic madarasa system of education and the new Western model they brought. In recent decades a new dimension has been added to this struggle through schools which combine the two different institutes. There are two types of integrated schools currently operating within Mombasa. The first is a network of integrated nursery schools founded by the Madarasa Program. The Program works through their schools to empower and educate impoverished Muslim areas using ideas of community ownership and development. The Program, and …

Faculty Scholarship

In 2007, Routledge published Theory for Performance Studies as part of its Theory 4 series, listing Philip Auslander as author. When, in August, The Chronicle of Higher Education revealed that much of the book was lifted word-for-word from the template for the series, Theory for Religious Studies by Timothy K. Beal and William E. Deal, TDR editor Richard Schechner convened via email and phone conversations a “TDR Forum,” asking leaders in the field to respond to the book and the series. Schechner and other respondents address issues of plagiarism, corporate takeovers of academic publishing, and the dumbing down of performance …
