The author draws attention to the strong state tradition and the
pluralistic society that both prevailed in Turkey. He argues that
the Turkish state tradition envisages centralization, social
cohesion and an obedient political culture. Through the
modernization process of the last century, it has tried to change
the society from top to down, and built an ideological and
unitarian public sphere. However, the transition to multi-party
system in 1950 and the liberalization policies that followed in the
post-1980s have prepared the ground for different social movements
to come into existence in the same public arena. Social movements
which developed particularly among Kurds, Alevis and women
emphasize social diversity, pluralism, participation, limited
authority, freedom and human rights. They, thus, have paved the way
for the transformation of the ideological public sphere into a
plural and a civil public domain. The author follows the traces of
all these developments from the Ottoman Empire to the last decades
of the Republican Turkey. Moving from the case of Turkey he makes
an important contribution to the literature on various issues such
as civil society, public sphere, modernization, democracy, and
social movements.
This book provides a wide range of information about Afghanistan's
forest types, cover, diversity, and explains the phenomena of
continued deforestation, its consequences, and the environmental
challenges. The author, Lutfullah Fareedzai detailed the
historical, political economical, and cultural factors and events
that fully explain the unending destruction of the forest. He also
documented the war that has turned Afghanistan's forests from that
of a well-wooded land into one of the worlds most disastrous forest
areas, with its forests cover and wildlife habitat reduced to a
mere fraction of its former extent. He further proposed strategies
on how to combat illegal logging and deforestation, restore and
enhance the forests and wildlife conservation, improved forests
management, and environmental governance. The author draws his
conclusions from well-researched case studies around the world that
highlights the range of prospects. The book will be of great value
to researchers, students, environmental agencies, and those who are
actively working on forest policy and governance. This is a book
that stands to make a difference.
Food is one of the basic and essential necessities for the
nourishment and survival of human life. Among the multiple sources
of food, Allah (SWT) has created, agriculture, undoubtedly, remains
the most important one which allows farmers to grow food for them
and for others to meet the current and future food demand. The work
force that is making a living from this sector includes both poor
and elite classes; however, the number belonging to poor class is
dominant. The poor class, owing to its financial constraints and
meagre resources, is unable to get maximum benefit from their
efforts. Consequently, they remain in need of money at the various,
and at times crucial, phases of the harvesting cycles. But a Muslim
farmer is prohibited by Islam from getting interest based loans. An
alternate source, therefore, is needed to provide financing to a
Muslim farmer under the Shariah conforming modes.The present work
is the first comprehensive work on islamic agricultural finance in
the history of islamic finance.It provides theoritical and
practical guideline to islamic banks and other islamic financial
institutions to finance the agrcultural sector both for crop and
non crop activities.
