A Preliminary Work on the Intellectual and Civilisational Dimensions of the Al-Jawaib Based on Ottoman Sources
This study was an investigation of the relationships between Ahmad Faris al-Shidyaq, editor of the al-Jawaib (Circulating News), an Arabic newspaper published in İstanbul, his son Selim Faris, and the Ottoman authorities, utilising only Ottoman archival documents, in particular, the Presidential Ottoman Archives (BOA) between 1859 and 1887. Since this paper is the initial one of many, the complete biography of Ahmad Faris and the content analysis…
Islamic Identity and Development after the Ottomans
Islamic identity and development after the Ottomans
The oil-rich Muslim Core, the Arab World, is far removed from a just and humane world, totally at variance with the grand promise of Islam, a perfect social contract initiated by the Prophet himself. The present article is a synopsis of a forthcoming book to be published in 2022 by Routledge. It uses a neo-Ottomanist framework for critical analysis to explain today’s complex challenges facing the Islamic world. Not everyone may be happy with the …
Turkish Laicism in Indonesia’s Newspapers (1920-1940) and Its Influence on Indonesian Secularists and Muslims Thoughts
The Republic of Turkey was established in 1923 after the Treaty of Sevres and Lausanne were ratified by the Turkish nationalists led by Mustafa Kamal. This establishment has marked the beginning of a new era in the political, social, economic, and cultural lives of Turks. The main concern for Turkish statesmen was laicism. The policy has a significant effect on the global world, especially for the Dutch Indies. The purpose of this article is to p…
The Ottoman Legacy and Neo-Ottomanism
Eurocentricity
This entry defines Eurocentricity as the economic interest of the west and shows how, in the past two centuries, it emerged first as a theoretical construct in the classroom and then, at the hands of policymakers and empire builders, enriched the west at the expense of the rest. Although presented as scientific and objective, theories of perfect competition, free trade, growth and development, and most recently globalization are, in reality, pro‐…
An Attempt to Understand the Driving Forces of Historiography in the Eurocentric Perspective in Southeast Asia
İlk sayısını Haziran 2011'de çıkaran İnsan & Toplum Dergisi, yılda iki kez yayımlanan, hem Türkçe hem de İngilizce yazılara yer veren hakemli bir dergidir. İnsan & Toplum, akademik yayın dünyasında görülen iki temel eksikliği duyumsayarak yola çıktı. Bunlardan biri, kendi disipliner sınırlarına hapsolmuş akademyanın insan ve toplumu birbirinden izole ederek ayrıştırarak çalışma yapmasının bir teamül haline gelmiş olmasıdır. İkincisi de, disiplinl…
Efficiency Gains in Tourism in Cyprus
In divided Cyprus, there are two separate tourism markets, one in the Greek Cypriot South and one in the Turkish Cypriot North. This is a costly reality of the Cyprus problem. The purpose of this paper is to determine the potential “peace dividend”, called efficiency gains, generated by a possible settlement of this problem as a result of an agreement between the two major communities on the island. Based on a survey of primary stakeholders in bo…
Labor Mobility and Labor Market Convergence in Cyprus
This essay is an empirical study of migration in a small, dynamic economy, North Cyprus. Even though it is a small state in a divided country, North Cyprus is rather unique, being both an importer and exporter of labor. It attracts a large number of workers from the Turkish mainland, and at the same time it exports labor to South Cyprus. The study consists of three main parts. First, there is an analytical discussion of migration using the standa…
Family in War and Conflict
When a state collapses due to conflict, civilians may no longer be able to rely on state institutions to provide basic human needs such as food, health, housing and employment. Accordingly, people tend to shift from state-provided services toward family-centered forms of social capital that are especially useful as coping mechanisms in crisis situations. This paper explores the survival strategies of Turkish Cypriot families during the war condit…
Global Governance, Economy and Law
This book provides a critical examination of the most important institutions of global governance in the world today. Drawing on history, political science, law and economics, the authors examine institutions such as the United Nations, the World Trade Organization (WTO), the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the World Bank and also the global pri
Does Foreign Direct Investment Cause a Race to the Bottom
In the current debate on globalization, a central concern is that foreign direct investment (FDI) may relocate jobs from high-income countries to labor-abundant economies forcing a competitive downward decline in real wages all around, known as 'race to the bottom' (RTB). The core of the RTB hypothesis is that FDI inflows increase the elasticity of demand for labor. This is a necessary condition for pushing wages downward toward minimum or subsis…
Islamic Identity and Development
Turkey and Malaysia, two countries on the Islamic periphery, are often not included in discussions of Islamic reassertion and identity. Yet both have been at the forefront of modernization and development, and are exposed to a rising trend of Islamic revival which discloses a deep, psychological identity crisis. In Islamic Identity and Development, Ozay Mehmet examines this identity crisis in the wider context of the Islamic dilemma of reconcilin…
Social Capital Formation in Large-Scale Development Projects
Project design, implementation and evaluation are undergoing major change in line with new concepts and practices of community participation, consultation and stakeholder analysis. Social capital is the key in this change process. This paper surveys recent literature on social capital and derives guidelines for development projects, especially large-scale projects. The paper offers a micro-economic method for measuring social capital derived from…

Workers and the State in New Order Indonesia
New order Indonesia has undergone a process of sustained industrialization. This has led to the emergence of a new urban industrial working class more inclined to organize independently of the state. Workers have been increasingly involved in industrial unrest in the 1990s, despite stringent state controls over labour. This text provides theoretical analysis on the role and prospects of organized labour in late industrializing countries. With the…
Development in a wartorn society
The publication of Cambodia's First Socio-economic Development Plan, (FSEDP) 1996-2000 is a significant event representing a major step in the country's re-emergence from Pol Pot's Killing Fields and long years of civil war. Moreover, the document is, technically speaking, a competent, realistic product, crafted by Cambodia's donors, to put that unfortunate country back on the road to reconstruction and sustainable development. Technical quality …

Identity Crisis in the Islamic Periphery
This is an age of identity crisis. Who am I? What are my roots? These are the central questions of our age. The search for identity is mixed with a wave of skepticism about development, technology and environment. This is a universal phenomenon. Questions about one's roots, about ecological and technological and demographic limits of growth and development (Olson and Landsberg, 1973; Schumacher, 1973) are being asked in the mass consumption socie…

Evaluating Alternative Land Schemes in Malaysia
In recent years rural development has become an increasingly attrac tive alternative to urban-based industrialization. This shifting emphasis reflects the general failure of the trickledown theory of growth to generate improvement in the levels of living among the majority of the citizens of Third World countries who, by and large, are rural communities.1 In Malaysia, the chief instrument of rural development policies has been land development an…
Effectiveness of Foreign Aid- the Case of Somalia
Somalia is one of the poorest countries of the world, with an estimated incomeper capitaof about $50.1Yet she is one of the largest recipients of foreign aid: during 1964-1969 she received an annual average of about $15 per head of her 3 million population.2This rate of aid is more than three times the figure of $4.5per capita, which represents the average annual aid to other developing countries during 1964-1967.3

Turkey in Crisis
The recent crisis in Turkey has been described primarily as a political crisis caused by an unworkable political system under attack from organized terrorism from both the right and the left. While this may be valid as an immediate cause, there are some structural and ideological contradictions in the Turkish economic system which must also be highlighted. These contradictions have evolved gradually over the last half century in the course of Tur…
An international development levy on multinational corporations
This paper argues that the Multinational Corporations (MNC's) help generate global income disparities by exploiting the underprivileged populations in the Less Developed Countries (LDC's) for the benefit of the affluent groups, and that one practical method for rectifying this inequity is to impose a Development Levy on MNCs to finance egalitarian development in LDCs. The proposed Development Levy on MNCs would not only promote greater global equ…

Manpower planning and labour markets in developing countries
In the past, aggregative studies and forecasts have dominated manpower planning in developing countries. Such exercises, however, tend to assume away or ignore a host of institutional factors that have far‐reaching influences on the determination of wages and employment and on the efficiency of labour markets. Consequently, this paper argues that disaggregated manpower research, focussed on current problems and conditions in employment markets, w…
Administrative Machinery for Development Planning in Liberia
Although the oldest independent African republic, Liberia ranks among the continent's poorest states,1 despite the existence of a small but prosperous foreign enclave dominated by iron ore and rubber plantation companies. Prior to 1950, even this sector was non-existent, with the exception of the Firestone rubber plantation at Harbel which was started in 1926

Rubber, Recession, and Malaysia’s Economic Development Strategy
P ersistent poverty in primary producing countries is often attributed to external factors such as the instability of export earnings' or unequal exchange in a dependent trading relationship.7 In many cases, however, it is the domestic policy mix pursued by the governments of primary producing countries themselves that must bear the major responsibility. This is clearly the case in Malaysia, the world's leading producer of natural rubber and oil …
