Law, Religion and the Environment in Africa

This volume explores themes of ecotheology, ecofeminism, environmental pollution and degradation, climate change, human and environmental rights, sustainable development, human-animal relations through totem and taboo, sacred sites and spaces, and other environmental topics in ways that add immeasurably to the study of African environmentalisms and the interaction of law and religion. In terms of religion, the capability of humans not only to sin and destroy the earth, but also to repair and redeem it, is very much in evidence across Christianity, Islam and Africa’s many indigenous religious and cultural traditions. In terms of law, the need for effective policies and for states and governments to work with indigenous groups and communities towards environmental solutions is also apparent.

Strengthening Relations with Arab and Islamic Countries Through International Law:E-Commerce, the WTO Dispute Settlement Mechanism, and Foreign Investment: Papers Emanating from the Fourth PCA International Law Seminar, October 12, 2001

Are the WTO Agreements and dispute settlement procedures consistent with Islamic (Shari'a) law principles and norms of justice? How can a foreign investor in a Muslim country comply with the financial tenets of Shari'a? Will Arab and Islamic countries continue to lag behind much of the world in e-commerce, or can e-commerce be integrated with traditional business methods as an engine of economic growth? Experts examine these and other issues from their unique perspectives in this fourth volume in The Permanent Court of Arbitration/Peace Palace Papers series, which reproduces the work of the Fourth International Law Seminar held at the Peace Palace on October 12, 2001. The Seminar, organized jointly by the Permanent Court of Arbitration and the Arab Union of International Arbitration, focused on strengthening relations with Arab and Islamic countries. In the papers presented here, the authors point out that not only is free and liberal trade deeply rooted in the culture of Islam, Shari'a urges the accommodation of all kinds of knowledge, including the technological environment necessary for e-commerce. They point the way to full participation by Arab and Islamic countries in the world economic community. This work focuses on strengthening relations with Arab and Islamic countries in three specific areas: electronic commerce, the World Trade Organization's dispute settlement mechanisms and foreign investment. Contributors come from the Middle East, Europe and North America and offer a diversity of perspectives on strengthening relations with Arab and Islamic countries. This book will be of interest to international organizations, corporate counsel, international lawyers and business people, as well as to students of international law and Islamic law.

Most notable here is domestic capacity for e - banking . As yet , most Arab countries still lack a well - integrated and digitized banking network , which is essential for smooth e - commerce operation .
