This thesis argues that the primary mover of the migration were the edicts, or Farmans, of the Ismaili spiritual leader. They were instrumental in motivating Ismailis to go to East Africa.

    NOT FOR PUBLICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY JANUARY 2001 Revised Aug. 2002, May 2004, May 2005, May/July 2006, June 2007 List of Certain Foreign Institutions classified as Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms The attached list of foreign institutions, which conform to the definition of foreign official institutions on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms, supersedes all previous lists. The definition of foreign official institutions is: "FOREIGN OFFICIAL INSTITUTIONS (FOI) include the following: 1. Treasuries, including ministries of finance, or corresponding departments of national governments; central banks, including all departments thereof; stabilization funds, including official exchange control offices or other government exchange authorities; and diplomatic and consular establishments and other departments and agencies of national governments. 2. International and regional organizations. 3. Banks, corporations, or other agencies (including development banks and other institutions that are majority-owned by central governments) that are fiscal agents of national governments and perform activities similar to those of a treasury, central bank, stabilization fund, or exchange control authority." Although the attached list includes the major foreign official institutions which have come to the attention of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Department of the Treasury, it does not purport to be exhaustive. Whenever a question arises whether or not an institution should, in accordance with the instructions on the TIC forms, be classified as official, the Federal Reserve Bank with which you file reports should be consulted. It should be noted that the list does not in every case include all alternative names applying to the same institution.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 bLOSiL ZZLL d ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the external and internal influences on the process of state formation in Oman since 1920 and places this process in comparative perspective with the other states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It considers the extent to which the concepts of informal empire and collaboration are useful in analysing the relationship between Oman, Britain and the United States. The theoretical framework is the historical materialist paradigm of International Relations. State formation in Oman since 1920 is examined in a historical narrative structured by three themes: (1) the international context of Western involvement, (2) the development of Western strategic interests in Oman and (3) their economic, social and political impact on Oman.

  • The Muscat Dhows Case in Historical Perspective Rodney Carlisle
    The Muscat Dhows Case in Historical Perspective Rodney Carlisle Une décision en 1905 de la Cour permanente d’arbitrage de La Haye, connu sous le nom du « cas des boutres de Muscat » avait résolu un différend entre les gouvernements français et britannique sur le droit de certains propriétaires de boutres omanais à battre le pavillon français, ce que les Britanniques prétendaient faire parti du commerce des esclaves dans l’océan indien. Le principe énoncé dans cette décision, que chaque état souverain a le droit d’allouer son pavillon maritime aux ressortissants d’autres États, a été cité comme le fondement juridique des pavillons de complaisance actuels. Cet article remet en question cette décision dans son contexte historique, mettant en valeur les problèmes spécifiques contestés et le rôle de l’arbitre américain, le juge en chef Melville Fuller, dans la résolution de l’affaire. In 1905, the Permanent Court of Arbitration in The Hague, Netherlands, issued its fourth arbitral award: the Muscat Dhows decision. This decision has been regularly cited in the legal literature surrounding the later practice of issuing flags of convenience to merchant ships.1 The decision stated: “generally speaking it belongs to every Sovereign to decide to who he will accord the right to fly his flag and to prescribe the rules governing such grants.”2 The language of this case has been cited many times; it forms the basis of international law for the later practice that continues today of registry 1 The case has been cited many times, both in traditional print sources and on the Internet in discussions related to flags of convenience.

Abstract This paper relies on primary resources dealing with the history of Oman along with British documents, which are the most important materials that dealt with the situation in the region, in general, and in Oman in Particular, at a time when Britain had power, presence and military control over India through the Government of British India. At that time, Britain tried to open lines of communication and forge agreements with the Arabian Gulf countries in order to secure its control over this vital region and secure communications with its colonies in India. This study focuses on the economic and commercial relations between the two countries including trade of spices, textile, weapons, slaves, dates and other goods, the currencies used in these commercial exchanges, and the volume of trade. It also explores the volatility of these relations in different periods.

    NOT FOR PUBLICATION DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY JANUARY 2001 Revised August 2001 List of Certain Foreign Institutions Classified as Official for Purposes of Reporting on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms The attached list of foreign institutions, which conform to the definition of foreign official institutions on the Treasury International Capital (TIC) Forms, supersedes all previous lists. The definition of foreign official institutions in the instructions for the TIC Banking Forms and Form S reads: "A FOREIGN OFFICIAL INSTITUTION includes the following: 1. Treasuries, including ministries of finance, or corresponding departments of national governments; central banks, including all departments thereof; stabilization funds, including official exchange control offices or other government exchange authorities; and diplomatic and consular establishments and other departments and agencies of national governments. 2. International and regional organizations. 3. Banks, corporations, or other agencies (including DEVELOPMENT BANKS and institutions that are majority-owned by central governments) that are fiscal agents of national governments, performing activities similar to those of a treasury, central bank, stabilization fund, or exchange control authority." Although the attached list includes the major foreign official institutions which have come to the attention of the Federal Reserve Banks and the Department of the Treasury, it does not purport to be exhaustive. Whenever a question arises whether or not an institution should, in accordance with the instructions on the TIC forms, be classified as official, the Federal Reserve Bank with which you file reports should be consulted. It should be noted that the list does not in every case include all alternative names applying to the same institution.
