‘Economics education’ as a field within economics focuses on “the current state of, the economics curriculum, materials and pedagogical techniques used to teach economics at all educational levels” (Becker, 2001). Unfortunately, Islamic economics education (IEE) is a highly neglected field in contemporary Islamic economics. As such, this edited book is an important addition to this much needed area.
Interpreting Islam in the Constitution: Question of Fact or of Law?
Authors: Hazri Tengku Ahmad
Published: July 2021

Under Malaysia’s federalism, the legislative powers of the Federation are distributed between the federal and state governments by the Federal Constitution, classified under Federal List, State List and Joint List. Thus state legislature is authorised to legislate on matters involving, among others, Islamic law. This power includes to create “offences against the precepts of Islam”.1 So two questions then arise.
Protecting the Religion (Maqsad Hifz al-Din) In Malaysian Political Islam: A Preliminary Analysis
Authors: Wan Mansor Wan Naim
Published: July 2021

After inheriting a multicultural yet segmented society from its colonial legacy, identity politics has heavily influenced political Islam in Malaysia. Since then, identity politics has significantly shaped Malaysia's political dynamics, including in the bureaucratic and legal spheres. The Islamism espoused by the Malay Muslim majority is often intertwined with exclusivist ethno-religious considerations vis-a-vis the non-Muslim minorities (the Chinese and Indians). One of the most frequent manifestations of this political platform is the slogan ‘protecting Islam’ or ‘protecting religion’. This notion often finds itself at the centre of the Islamist discourse, especially in high-profile religious cases involving Muslims and non-Muslims. This paper intends to provide a descriptive analysis of ‘protecting Islam’ in the Malaysian context while also identifying key elements in its inner-workings. It will then proceed with a discussion of maqsad hifz al-din (the objective to preserve religion), a sub-topic in the overarching field of maqasid al-sharicah. This discussion will examine how this notion is understood within the Malaysian context, while also asking what the Shari’ah says about it, and what the gaps are between the two positions. Finally, the article will propose a theoretical framework for achieving an optimal Shari'ah-based policy response to the issues discussed. Possible real world applications in the Malaysian experience will also be explored.
Halal Reputation Management: Combining Individual and Collective Reputation Management Strategies
Authors: Tieman Marco
Published: July 2021

A series of recent high-profile halal scandals involving top brands have shown that halal reputation and Muslim consumer loyalty can change very quickly. It seems that companies are under continuous scrutiny. Unfortunately, companies frequently only find out the actual value of their halal reputation when they manage a halal issue or crisis poorly. Even though halal reputation is hard to define and value, it is evidently critical to track its performance. Today, many companies do not have these new halal reputation risks on their radar.
the Shari'ah Purpose of Wealth Preservation in Contracts and Transactions
Authors: Kamali Mohammad Hashim
Published: July 2021

This article is presented in two parts, the first of which reviews both the preservation of wealth (hifz al-mal) as one of the five essential maqasid in the category of daruriyyat and its sub-division into the four headings of circulation, clarity, stability/proof, and justice (rawaj, wuduh, thubat, ‘adl). To this we add, based on the evidence we present, development (tanmiyah) as a fifth division. The second part looks into the maqasid of contracts, a subject that has remained somewhat under-developed in the existing fiqh of mu’amalat, which is why we propose that this aspect of the jurisprudence of contracts be further developed through new addition and research. This would be a long-term undertaking mostly beyond the scope of this paper. Nevertheless, an attempt has been made to provide the basic contours for any future research which would be necessary if one were to develop the maqasid al- Shari’ah discourse from a more theoretical proposition, as it is now, into practical tools for testing the conformity or otherwise of particular contracts with their Shari’ah-designated purposes.
Democratic Transition in Malaysia: Prerequisites and Obstacles
Authors: Alatas Syed Farid
Published: July 2021

This paper discusses three factors accounting for the transition to democracy, namely the absence of mass or armed resistance to democracy, the internal strength of the state, and the cohesion of the political elite. In the case of Malaysia, the structural conditions that emerged in the late colonial period, that is the absence of mass resistance movements, allowed for the rise of a relatively democratic postcolonial state. Conditions had been relatively conducive to the development of democratic political culture. However, recent years have seen the development and exertion of a more authoritarian trend among the political and religious elite that has accompanied a process of Islamisation of governance. These developments resonate with a more feudal, hierarchical and authoritarian culture that can be traced to the pre-colonial past and which has an affinity with a more authoritarian interpretation of Islam so typical of the contemporary state religious establishment. The future of democracy in Malaysia depends on the ability of democratic tendencies within the state as well as civil society to work against these authoritarian forces. This future would require drawing upon the more egalitarian and humanist tradition of precolonial Islam and the modernist movement of the colonial Malay world.

The Death of the Horse
Authors: Schuurman Nora , Leinonen Riitta-Marja
Published: July 2021

The role of the horse has changed significantly in Scandinavia as a consequence of the modernization and urbanization processes. At the same time the conceptions of horses have changed from work and hierarchy related servant and workmate to anthropomorphic and scientific animal conceptions. Consequently, the goal of the farmers, to get the work done and keep the horse and equipment fit to perform, has been replaced by the goal of leisure horse owners: a happy horse and the purpose for the horse to feel well. The ideas of human welfare have created an idea of a welfare horse.
Ornithological Biography, Animal Studies, and Starling Subjectivity
Authors: Karnicky Jeff
Published: July 2021

At the end of his recent book Skylark Meets Meadowlark: Reimagining the Bird in British Romantic and Contemporary Native American Literature, Tom Gannon notes the anthropocentric gall of studying birds in order to know thyself better. This notion of birds as either a means of appreciating nature or of understanding the human place in the world is a common one. Writing in 1878, Walt Whitman, after listening to some birds sing for half an hour, stated, “I have a positive conviction that some of these birds sing, and others fly and flit about here, for my especial benefit.” Is there another way of encountering birds, a way that does not interpellate them, through sight and vision, into a human realm? An examination of European Starling subjectivity can show that starlings have their own way of being in the world. They are also the ultimate companion species to humans, as their population growth parallels human alteration of the world.  Starlings can be seen as an important site for thinking about the kinds of ethical relations that exist between human and nonhuman animals. In this ethical relationship, starlings have benefited immensely, as their affinity for humans has helped them to increase their range and population immensely starlings have survived and thrived in a human-created world. From a human perspective, starlings can provide a new way of thinking about and living in this world.
“Loving-knowing” women and horses
Authors: Savvides Nikki
Published: July 2021

This paper investigates the complexities of relations between women and horses. Through an analysis of literary material, it highlights the therapeutic and empowering potentials that arise as a result of their connection. It makes a discursive analysis of interview material gathered from twenty-two female Australian horse owners, and, in doing so, challenges the often held idea that women are ‘naturally’ affinitive with horses. The paper analyses the tension between feelings of love and familiarity and matters of conflict between women and their horses, and demonstrates that power plays in their relations may hinder the ability for woman and animal to get along. It reveals the ways in which women have overcome such problems by treating their horses as ‘companions’, allowing the therapeutic and empowering potentials of their relations with horses to be realized.
Why Animals and Religion Now?
Authors: Matthews Paul Robert
Published: July 2021

Over the last few of years, coming on the heels of a general turn toward the animal within the humanities and social sciences, a turn toward the animal and religion has taken place. This paper seeks to highlight some of the reasons why this turn has begun to take place and why thus turn has begun to take place only now. The works of Aaron Gross and Donovan Schaefer, I contend, represent a turning point in the history of the subject of religious studies for, in their work, other (non-human) animals are considered, as possible religious agents. Here, I engage the work of G.W.F. Hegel, Jacques Derrida, Émile Durkheim, J.Z. Smith, and Georges Bataille, to demonstrate the extent to which our thinking about religion has determined who can count as a religious subject and why the relatively recent turn toward religion and animals constitutes such a significant gesture within the history of religious studies and, for that matter, within the humanities in general.
What if Christopher Smart’s Cat Responded? — A Human-Animal Studies Perspective on Jubilate Agno’s Cat Jeoffrey
Authors: Ożarska Magdalena
Published: July 2021

The paper revisits Christopher Smart's Cat Jeoffry section of Jubilate Agno (1759-1763) using a Human and Animal Studies research perspective. The issues discussed include the concept of pethood as embraced by the poet, with special focus on the cat's name and its significance. Traces of the animal's Derridean “gazing” at and responding to the human are sought, as is evidence of Dominique Lestel's “thinking hairy” on the part of Smart the poet.
The Patterned and Emergent Boundaries of Wilderness Beings
Authors: Perry Donna J.
Published: July 2021

This paper explores the permeable boundaries between humans and free-living animals through interweaving the author’s experience with a New England coyote and the cognitional philosophy of Bernard Lonergan.  Human knowledge of wildlife emerges within patterned and variable ecological experiences.  These emergent encounters are mutually created with both human and creature as knowers of one another.  The paper suggests that the variability within human encounters with wild creatures provides a limitation that can serve as an intellectual and moral good. Such encounters call forth human responsibility for ethical decision-making in human-animal relations.
Should We Let Sleeping Dogs Lie… With Us?
Authors: Thompson Kirrilly , Smith Bradley
Published: July 2021

Humans and animals share their lives with one another in many ways. Pets, for example, are often considered valuable members of the family. They are invited into human hearts and homes, where they share routines, food and space. Animals are not only important to human waking lives. Some of them also share human beds – be it by invitation or invasion!  Yet, little is known about human-animal co-sleeping practices and their impact on humans, animals and human-animal relations. This is the first paper to critically collate the scant and disparate research on human-animal co-sleeping. Given that the research is risk-centric, the paper turns to established theories on animal attachment to propose explanations for the continued practice of human-animal co-sleeping and its benefits. To redress an anthropocentric bias in the limited existing research, an agenda for further research is outlined on human-animal co-sleeping that considers humans, animals and the human-animal relation.
Converging on Ancient Bones
Authors: Baynes-Rock Marcus
Published: July 2021

The majority of spotted hyena studies are conducted in places such as national parks and reserves where there are few humans present other than the researchers. I argue that this reflects a perception that “real” hyenas are those largely unaffected by contact with humans. This is at odds with fossil evidence which demonstrates a long, shared history of human/hyena co-evolution since our ancestors first came together on the African continent more than six million years ago. From that time human ancestors adopted lifeways that brought them into direct competition with hyena ancestors over carcass-based resources. These relations of competition and coexistence persisted through dispersals across Eurasia and into the late Pleistocene. So too in Africa, our respective ancestors competed over prey for millions of years. There hyena/human competition over livestock animals is a vestige of ancient enmity that marks both species as enemies. In light of this evidence I present a reconfiguration of what it is to be hyena or human. Using a theoretical framework developed by Jacob von Uexküll I argue that hyenas are to a great degree human-like and vice versa. This conclusion in turn undermines human exceptionalism by undermining the “non-animalness” which is normally held to separate humans from other species.
#SaveBenjy
Authors: Mc Loughlin Eimear
Published: July 2021

This paper explores the #SaveBenjy Crowdfunder campaign to save a Charolais bull in the Republic of Ireland who expressed sexual interest only in weanling bulls and not the heifers he was expected to impregnate. The prominence and popularity of #SaveBenjy is anything but coincidental. In May 2015, the referendum on gay marriage sought to legalize same-sex marriage. Consequently, #SaveBenjy provides a timely lens through which to view Irish attitudes towards sexuality, while also raising important questions around nonhuman subjectivity and personhood. #SaveBenjy blurs the boundaries between nature and culture and thus, demands a new paradigm within which the nonhuman animal can be appreciated as being inherently and simultaneously natural and cultural.

Published: July 2021

In this study, researchers examined how consumer decisions on purchases in e-commerce are particularly influenced by trust, attitudes and the ease of new shopping places. The data collection research was conducted using a questionnaire with 130 consumer respondents who had bought at ecommerce which would later be processed by Amos' Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The study used four variables, thirteen dimensions and twenty-six indicators. The results showed that trust, convenience and attitudes influenced consumer decisions in buying e-commerce. The results also showed that trust had the greatest and most significant influence on consumer decisions to buy in e-commerce. So, it can be said that consumers buy because it is based on a sense of already trusting an e-commerce to make e-commerce crowded and buyers need to pay attention to improving their taste.
Ranking DMUs using a novel combination method for integrating the results of relative closeness benevolent and relative closeness aggressive models
Authors: Wichapa Narong , Lawong Amin , Donmuen Manop
Published: July 2021

In this paper, a novel combination method is offered to integrate the results of two new relative closeness models, called relative closeness benevolent (RCB) and relative closeness aggressive (RCA) models, for ranking all DMUs. To prove the applicability of the proposed method, it is examined in three numerical examples, performance assessment problem, six nursing homes and fourteen international passenger airlines. Firstly, RCB and RCA models were formulated in order to generate the cross-efficiency intervals matrix (CEIM). After obtaining CEIM, the RC index was utilized to generate a combined cross-efficiency matrix (combined CEM). In combined CEM, target DMUs were viewed as criteria and DMUs were viewed as alternatives. After that, the weights of each criterion were generated using a new weighting method based on standard deviation technique (MSDT). Finally, all DMUs were evaluated and ranked. Comparison with existing cross-efficiency models indicates the more reliable results through the use of the proposed method.
Analysis of factors influencing consumer’s purchase intention in social commerce: The mediator role of trust
Authors: Karakurt Necip , Bayram Pelin
Published: July 2021

It is considered that determining the factors influencing the purchase intentions of customers in the field of social commerce by taking into account the cultural structures specific to each region can give highly valuable feedback to companies in the commercial field where competition has considerably increased. To this end, in the present study, it was aimed to propose and test out a structural model for the factors of social commerce constructs, social influence, habit and trust, which affect the purchase intentions of consumers. The study group of the research consisted of 447 Facebook users who live in North Cyprus. The scale form used as the data collection tool in the study consisted of 6 parts. In the first part of the scale, closed-ended questions were asked to determine the socio-demographic characteristics of the participants. The other parts of the scale consisted of 4 items about social commerce constructs, 4 items about habit, 3 items about social influence, 4 items about trust and 3 items about purchase intention. The reliability coefficients for the scales ranged between 0.79 and 0.92. These results indicated that the reliability coefficients were at the desired level. Socio-demographic variables were summarized using descriptive statistics, frequency and percentage distribution. First, normality test analyses were performed on the scales, and it was concluded that the data showed a normal distribution (kurtosis and skewness values varied between +2 / -2). Following the normality test, the measurement model was tested. Within the framework of a structural model proposed regarding the factors influencing the purchase intention of customers who shop through social commerce, it was concluded that habit, social influence and social commerce constructs had a significant effect on purchase intention. It was also concluded that habit and social commerce constructs significantly influenced purchase intention through trust.

Published: July 2021

Evaluation of anti-hyperuricemic activity of alcoholic extract of Capparis moonii Wight fruits in Wistar rats, by utilizing Indian caper typically occurring in the Konkan area which grows full-fledged in the hot and dry atmosphere that can be generally found throughout asia. The dried fruits of Capparis moonii W. were extracted using absolute ethanol to get an alcoholic extract. Acute oral toxicity studies were performed to decide the doses. The anti-hyperuricemic activity was estimated by the phenol red excretion in rats and the potassium oxonate induced hyperuricemia models respectively. The alcoholic extract showed dose-dependent mode of action where the higher concentration of 200 mg/kg showed higher amount of retention of phenol red in the blood suggesting that it has better ability to secrete urate out of the body of rats as compared to 100mg/kg. Also in potassium oxonate induced hyperuricemia, similar results were obtained with significant reduction in serum uric acid levels and serum creatinine levels as compared to 100mg/kg. The conclusion of this study was that; it proved that Capparis moonii W. alcoholic extract of the fruits can be beneficial as anti-hyperuricemic treatment agent. It would be encouraging to undertake further studies in future to decode the exact mechanism.

ABSTRAK

Latar Belakang: Luka adalah terputusnya kontinuitas jaringan karena cedera atau pembedahan. Untuk mempercepat penyembuhan luka secara medis bisa dioles preparat antibiotik atau gel penutup luka salah satunya adalah povidone iodine 10%. Namun bahan tersebut ber-efek samping dan kurang ekonomis. Sehingga diperlukan alternatif yang lebih murah dan mudah didapat, salah satunya dengan pemberian madu. Efek madu seperti keasaman, efek osmotic, efek kimia,  dan aktivitas antimikroba merupakan sumber utama dalam penyembuhan luka.

Tujuan:  Untuk membuktikan efektivitas perawatan luka menggunakan madu 50% dan 100% terhadap penyembuhan luka sayat dibandingkan dengan povidone iodine 10%  Metode: Penelitian eksperimen murni laboratorium. Sebanyak 3 kelompok diberi perlakuan selama paling lama 14 hari dan satu kelompok tidak diberi perlakuan.

Hasil: Kelompok Madu 100% ada perbedaan yang signifikan terhadap kelompok povidone iodine 10% sedangkan kelompok madu 50% tidak ada perbedaan yang signifikan terhadap kelompok povidone iodine 10%.

Kesimpulan: Pemberian Madu 100% lebih efektif dalam menyembuhkan luka sayat dibandingkan dengan pemberian madu 50% dan povidone iodine 10%.

Reading narratives of privilege and paternalism: the limited utility of human rights law on the journey to reform Northern Irish abortion law
Authors: Mitchell Lynsey
Published: July 2021

This article argues that a gendered conceptualisation of rights means that an invisible barrier had to be surmounted when attempting to frame denial of access to abortion in Northern Ireland as a human rights violation. It considers the Supreme Court decisions of In the matter of an application by the Northern Ireland Human Rights Commission for Judicial Review (Northern Ireland) and R (on the application of A and B) v Secretary of State for Health; examines what they reveal about the potentiality of human rights law to advance women’s rights; and analyses the limited success of human rights litigation in securing reproductive rights for Northern Irish women. It posits that the reason for this is the continued framing of abortion in the United Kingdom as a paternalistic privilege permitted to women only in limited scenarios and locations. It demonstrates how courts implicitly endorse this framing and consequently exclude women’s victimhood from the human rights framework.
Beyond trade: implementing the Ireland/Northern Ireland Protocol’s human rights and equalities provisions
Authors: Murray Colin , Rice Clare
Published: July 2021

The protections for rights and equality might be placed at the forefront of the EU/UK Withdrawal Agreement’s Protocol on Ireland/Northern Ireland, but they have been overshadowed by debates over the Protocol’s trade provisions. This marginalisation of these elements of the Protocol is problematic. Rights and equalities protections have long been a contested aspect of Northern Ireland’s constitutional arrangements, and there is thus every possibility that the limits of these new arrangements will be tested upon their entry into force. Moreover, unlike the aspects of the Protocol relating to trade, which can ultimately be terminated by the Northern Ireland Assembly, the rights and equalities aspects of the Protocol will continue in force independent of such a vote. As such, these provisions could even be said to provide the kernel of an (uncodified) Northern Ireland Bill of Rights.
