The Transformation of Islamic Law in Global Financial Markets

Autor Jonathan Ercanbrack
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 31 dec 2014
The role of global capital in relation to human social systems has assumed enormous proportions in liberalised, deregulated markets. States attempt to nationalise it, financial centres spring up in its wake, and INGOs attempt to deal with its de-territorialising, supranational characteristics. A global adjudication system (arbitration) has been introduced to safeguard and buttress its flow. The power of Islamic capital has generated numerous sites of legal contestation and negotiation, ranging from gateway financial centres, international law firms and transnational financial institutions, all of which interact in the production of Islamic financial law (IFL). The process of producing IFL illustrates complex fields of action driven by power dynamics, neoliberal paradigms and the institutional momentum of the global economy. The municipal legal systems under study in this book (the United Kingdom, Bahrain, United Arab Emirates and the Dubai International Financial Centre) illustrate globalisation's acceleration of legal, economic and social production.

Recenzii

'The book provides a good introduction for readers interested in Islamic finance and adds to the growing body of literature on this subject. It is especially useful for gaining insight into the law and practice of Islamic finance within the four countries studied, the UK, Bahrain, UAE and Dubai. The findings will be the interest of researchers, consultants, regulators and the public.' Sheila Htay, Banking and Finance Law Review
