INTRODUCTION In Islam, the only law is the law of God, and the law of God is the Shari'a. Literally "the way" or "the straight path," Shari'a is the civil and criminal law of Saudi Arabia2 and the Koran is the Saudi constitution. 3 "In Saudi Arabia, as in other Muslim countries, reli- gion and law are inseparable. Ethics, faith, jurisprudence, and practi- cality are so interdependent that it is impossible to study only Islamic religion or only Islamic law."' 4 Indeed, Islamic law is intended to serve as the expression of God's will.

    THE IMAGE OF SAUDI ARABIA IN THE BRITISH PRESS, with Particular Reference to Saudi Arabia's Islamic Mission. Taleb Al-Ahmady Z Submittedin accordancewith the requirementsfor the degreeof Ph.D. The University of Leeds Institute of CommunicationsStudies June 1995 The candidateconfirms that the work submittedis his own work and that appropriate credit hasbeen given where referencehas been madeto the work of others. 1 ABSTRACT Saudi The aim of this study is to trace the evolution of the image of Arabia in the British pressfrom the 1970's to the 1990's. During this period, the image which the press and its readershad of Saudi Arabia underwent a transformation. At the beginningof the 1970's, Saudi Arabia was perceivedas a distant, rather exotic, part of the Arabianpeninsula, much of a muchnesswith the other statesin the Gulf, a country about which little was or neededto be for known by British readers. It appearedto have no particular importance Britain, far less so than Egypt, Syria or Iraq which were seenas the countries of importanceand influence, for good or ill in the Middle East and within the Arab world. By the beginning of the 1990's, Saudi Arabia was by contrast in seen as a country which was of considerableimportance for Britain both particular and in a general,being of critical importancefor the West as a whole as the holder of both the largestoil reservesand having the largestlong-term oil production capacity in the world. It came to be presentedas economically important as a market for British exportsboth visible and invisible; a country in which a substantialnumber of British citizens worked and thus required the maintenanceof actively good diplomatic relations; a regional power; and, as at least one, if not now the most influential country in the affairs of the Arab world, when it choosesto exert its influence.

  • Saudi Moderation? Prince Muhammad Is on Shaky Ground
    Saudi Moderation? Prince Muhammad Is on Shaky Ground by Dr. James M. Dorsey BESA Center Perspectives Paper No. 794, April 12, 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Saudi Crown Prince Muhammad bin Salman has dazzled international media and public opinion by lifting some restrictions on women’s rights and holding out hope for the abolishment of others, vowing to return the kingdom to a vague form of moderate Islam that many believe is defined by the social reforms he has already implemented, and curbing the powers of the country’s ultra-conservative leadership. But his top-down approach to social change, which brushes aside Saudi history, rests on shaky ground. No doubt, Prince Muhammad’s recent reforms have benefitted women and created social opportunity with the introduction of modern forms of entertainment, including the opening this month of Saudi Arabia’s first cinema as well as concerts, theater, and dance performances. Anecdotal evidence testifies to the popularity of these moves, certainly among urban youth. But Prince Muhammad’s top-down approach to countering religious militancy rests on shaky ground. It involves rewriting history rather than owning up to responsibility, imposing his will on an ultra-conservative Sunni Muslim establishment whose change of heart in publicly backing him lacks credibility, and suppressing religious and secular voices who link religious and social change to political reform. Prince Muhammad has traced Saudi Arabia’s embrace of ultra-conservatism to 1979. That year, a popular revolt toppled the Shah and replaced Iran’s monarchy with an Islamic republic, and Saudi zealots took control of the Great Mosque in the holy city of Mecca.

Sixty students in undergraduate communication classes participated in Study I, which measured attitude change induced by the film, relative to the viewers' prior knowledge base. A different group of 60 communication undergraduates took part in Study II, in which thesame procedures were used, but attitude change relative to the viewers' level of religiosity was measured. Study III used a third group, 40 undergraduates enrolled, as were the others, in communication classes, to examine attitude change relative to personal evaluation of two concepts: "Saudi Arabia" and "Moslem." Each group was divided equally into those who reviewed the film and those who did not. Although it was hypothesized that viewing the docudrama would induce a more negative attitude toward Saudi Arabia, results indicated that a sweeping attitude change did not occur. Contrary to findings of previous research, men were found to be more persuadable thanwomen.

  • U. S. F-15 Jet Fighter Sale to Saudi Arabia--Analysis
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced Into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame, if copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
