Fordham International Law Journal

In Sections 1 and 2, the article shall provide a brief introduction to various notions of Islamic law as they exist today, as well as the common-law nature of Islamic jurisprudence to establish the possibility of finding a compromise that renders minor modifications of the existing juristic positions coherent.

Enlargement Of The European Union – The Discrepancy Between Membership Obligations And Accession Conditions As Regards The Protection Of Minorities, Christophe Hillion Jan 2003

Enlargement Of The European Union – The Discrepancy Between Membership Obligations And Accession Conditions As Regards The Protection Of Minorities, Christophe Hillion

Fordham International Law Journal

This Article will focus on one particular accession condition that is illustrative of this phenomenon, namely, the protection of minorities. The Copenhagen criteria encompass the "respect for and protection of minorities" as one of the conditions for acceding to the Union, but the Treaty on European Union ("TEU") does not explicitly mention the protection of minorities as one of the EU's principles, objectives, or competences. It is argued that the question of minority rights could find its way onto the EU internal policy agenda not only as a concern of various new Member States, but also as an unintended consequence …

The Constitution Of North Korea: Its Changes And Implications, Dae-Kyu Yoon Jan 2003

The Constitution Of North Korea: Its Changes And Implications, Dae-Kyu Yoon

Fordham International Law Journal

Though a departure from mainstream socialist States, a glimpse of North Korea's Constitution can still provide observers with an understanding of how North Korea has undergone and responded to social changes and vicissitudes. Hence, this Essay sets out to do a number of things. First, this study succinctly examines the nature and status of law in North Korea. Second, it reviews the country's constitutional history in sequence, and then, provides a more in depth look into the characteristics of the current Constitution. Conclusions are then drawn from this examination. The goal of this Essay is not to describe the principles …

The Obstacles To Regulating The Hawala: A Cultural Norm Or A Terrorist Hotbed? , Rachana Pathak Jan 2003

The Obstacles To Regulating The Hawala: A Cultural Norm Or A Terrorist Hotbed? , Rachana Pathak

Fordham International Law Journal

This Note examines the complex mechanics of hawala networks. Part I provides information regarding their origins, scope and reasons for continued existence. Part II contrasts the U.S. approach to regulating hawala networks through the USA PATRIOT Act and Operation Green Quest, with the U.A.E.'s approach, which is resistant to some of the American-led efforts. Part II also reviews three separate Green Quest actions: 1) Al Barakaat, an expansive Somalia-based organization through which Somalia's diaspora sent cash to families abroad; 2) Hussein Alshafei, an Iraqi American, who operated a money service business to Iraq; and 3) Mohammed Albanna, a Yemeni-American, based …

Introduction, Mohammad H. Fadel Jan 2003

Introduction, Mohammad H. Fadel

Fordham International Law Journal

Fordham International Law Journal's special issue on Islamic law includes articles that present a broad variety of themes, from the historical to the contemporary, from the philosophical to the empirical, and from the theoretical to the practical. In light of the generally poor understanding of Islamic law among American lawyers, one can only hope that a publication such as this succeeds in generating greater intellectual curiosity about Islamic law among readers of American law journals. The authors hope that this collection of Articles will lead to renewed interest in Islamic law and theology as intellectually gratifying topics of inquiry in …

On Democracy As A Shar'i Moral Presumption: Response To Khaled Abou El Fadl, Anver M. Emon Jan 2003

On Democracy As A Shar'i Moral Presumption: Response To Khaled Abou El Fadl, Anver M. Emon

Fordham International Law Journal

Khaled Abou El Fadl has done more in his Article than simply argue the possibility of democracy in the Muslim world. He reminds us that Islam is not a monolithic idea lacking varying contours, possibilities, and dispositions. Whether in talking about an Islamic legal system or an Islamic political system, the most frequent mistake is assuming that there is an ideal vision of such systems that precludes debate, difference, and the continued search for possibilities. Another common mistake is to presume that the limits of an “Islamic political system” are inherent in the existing practice of so-called Muslim States. To …
