"Cohen and Udovitch, "Jews among Arabs
The Last Arab Jews
The once numerous and vital Jewish communities of Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia have disappeared, succumbing during the past century to the assimilating temptations of French culture, or, more recently, to the pressures of migration. Only the two communities of the island of Jerba still remain. Only they have succeeded in maintaining and reproducing their religious and social institutions, in adjusting to the new realities around them while preser…

Islamic law and the social context of exchange in the medieval middle east
Islamic law purports to be unchanging and valid throughout the Islamic world. Nevertheless, a close examination of the medieval Islamic law of sate shows that the concept of local knowledge plays a considerable part in it On the one hand, the distinction between legitimate exchange and usury depends on the adequacy of the information available to the purchaser of goods or services; on the other hand, this stress on information leads to insistence…

Communautés juives en pays d'Islam
L'historien est désarmé devant la différence quand l'anthropologue en fait son point de départ. Le premier est attiré par les traitements de masse. Il ne lui faut pas moins d'un empire, d'une nation, d'un État, d'une classe. Quand des voix discordantes s'élèvent dans ces ensembles, alors il étudie les conflits et, de certains groupes, il dresse le martyrologe. Il reste tiraillé entre deux directions, le genre épique ou dramatique d'un côté, l'his…

Labor Partnerships in Early Islamic Law
The institution of partnership was one of the chief means in the medieval Islamic world enabling merchants and others to combine their resources and skills for investment in commercial undertakings. According to the various schools of Islamic law, resources could take the form either of a cash investment 1) or of goods and merchandise 2), and skills, of commercial know-how and/or of a particular skill on the part of one or all of the partners in …
Credit as a Means of Investment in Medieval Islamic Trade
THE PRECISE ROLE OF CREDIT in the context of medieval economic life has been subject to dispute by economic historians. Until forty years ago, the prevalent view was that the middle ages constituted a pre-credit era, that credit transactions, to the extent that they were employed, were of minor economic importance, and that their function was restricted to consumption to the exclusion of production and trade. Accordingly, proponents of this view …
