Administrative Convenience Or Deliberate Reform? The Impacts Of The Colonial Judicial Legacy Of The Pre-Colonial Justice System In South-Western Nigeria, Adewale Adekunle Adeyeye

LLM Theses

In pre-colonial times, the ethnic groups that independently existed in the territory now called Nigeria had organized systems of government. However, the sweeping force of nineteenth-century colonialism erased most of these pre-colonial governments’ institutions and replaced them with the British system. Notably, in South-Western Nigeria (Yorubaland), historical evidence revealed the existence of a constitutional monarchy with organized branches of government. Especially, the pre-colonial judicial branch/justice system of the Yoruba monarchy was radically altered by colonialism. Using the interdisciplinary methodology, this research answered questions related to the structures and procedures of the pre-colonial justice system in South-Western Nigeria and how it …

Socio-Cultural Dimension Of Innovation In Islamic Economics: A Comparative Analysis Of Top Innovative Countries And Muslim Countries, Husnu Tekin, Omer Faruk Tekdogan

Journal of King Abdulaziz University: Islamic Economics

In this study, we employ sub-Hofstede indexes and Global Innovation Index (GII) to demonstrate the socio-cultural dimension of innovation in Muslim countries by comparing it with top GII countries. Even though our comparative analysis points out that culture more or less matters in terms of innovation performance of countries, it seems that sub-Hofstede indexes are not sufficient alone to reveal the innovation performance of economies. On the other hand, even though Islam encourages innovative activities for Muslims, most of the Muslim countries have relatively lower R&D expenditures per capita compared to the top GII countries. Muslim countries with several exceptions …

Institutions in crisis offer opportunities to look at urgent and adaptive changes. I study an Islamic organization that is representative of a religious institution, which has deep traditions and meaningfulness to its members. In a time of crisis, in the urban area in the United States where it is located, the organization is pressed by external parties, such as government, media, and leaders from other religions, to …

The structure of the digital market of e-commerce platforms is dynamic, with a combination of characteristics such as strong network effects, concentrated multi-sided platforms, extreme economies of scale and scope, low marginal costs, and high data returns. These strong network externalities within the multisided e-commerce market make the competitive environment in e-commerce significantly different from the conventional monogamous market as they create gatekeeper positions favouring a few incumbent e-commerce platforms.

Towards A Post-Imperial And Global Ir?: Revisiting Khatami’S Dialogue Among Civilisations, Shabnam Holliday, Edward Wastnidge

School of Law, Humanities and Social Sciences

This article argues that Dialogue among Civilisations can be put forward as a crucial contribution to debates addressing IR’s Eurocentrism. It highlights the blurring of West/non-West, domestic/international, and imperial/post-imperial bifurcations. This is evident in three ways. First, Dialogue among Civilisations needs to be appreciated in Iran’s wider historical context and its multifaceted intellectual heritages. This demonstrates that the idea of the West as distinctly different from the East is problematic because of engagement between Iran and the so-called West. Second, Khatami’s intellectual endeavours are based on a simultaneous engagement with Western political thought, Islamic philosophy, and the idea of Ancient …

Exploring College Experiences Of Muslim Students At Four-Year Institutions In Colorado: A Narrative Inquiry, Kamal Gamada Ararso

In the last two decades, Colorado's number of Muslim Americans (citizens and permanent residents) has substantially increased (Bowen, 2009a; Bowen, 2009b; Mohamed, 2021; Roberts, 2022). This increase is reflected in the growing number of Islamic community centers, emerging Islamic schools, mosques, grocery stores, Muslim cuisines, and the diversity of students in the post-secondary education system (Roberts, 2022). Although centralized data about Muslim college students are hard to find, their presence within the higher education system is well-known. Still, in Colorado, Muslims' religious, racial, cultural, and gendered experiences within the higher education system remained unexplored in the research. Therefore, this exploratory …
