Additionally, examples are given of the various types of business transactions that are often associated with international business transactions associated with the Islamic world. In the end, it is shown that while it may be challenging to conduct international Islamic business transactions, it is worth the effort to avoid economic isolationism.
From the Paper
"One of the problems in dealing with Islamic law in the realm of international business is that Islamic law has many inconsistencies that make predictability in business matters a major concern. Additionally, the inconsistencies often vary between different sects of Islam, such as between Sunnis and Shi'ites, for example. Indeed, the lack of uniformity and consistency can be confusing and disconcerting. Sharia, which is Islamic law, proceeds by way of example rather than principle. While this does present issues to international business dealings, each of the Islamic States in the Gulf region currently has a set of codified corporate laws."

"The oil industry is continuing to become largely an international venture, with consolidations of domestic United States operations creating attractive assets for foreign purchase.

Conclusion and Recommendations
From the Paper
"No one can dispute the fact that the world economy is increasingly globalizing as we move into the 21st century. As this internationalization of business grows, there is an increasing challenge being faced to deal with cultural differences. In one survey, cultural differences ranked first among all eight issues listed as potential barriers, including law, price competition, information, language, delivery, foreign currency, time differences, and cultural differences. Great opportunities have been created for global collaboration but these opportunities are accompanied by a unique set of problems and issues relating to effective management in the international environment. The social and cultural nuances that enter the picture when dealing with foreign business partners may make for entertaining conversation in subsequent years, but the daily effort that is required for operations can sometimes be hard on business relationships, especially in the early stages."

Abstract
Three overlapping systems of international arbitration have developed to resolve international business disputes: (1) maritime arbitration of disputes related to ocean shipping and transportation; (ii) arbitration of disputes arising out of international trade in goods and services; and (iii) arbitration of disputes arising out of private foreign direct investment (FDI) and other trans-national financial transactions. This paper examines the effectiveness of international arbitration as a means of resolving business disputes arising out of international trade in goods and services and investment. The paper summarizes the historical roots of commercial arbitration, and the fundamental steps taken in the postwar period to establish a solid national and international legal and institutional framework to permit it to operate effectively.
Paper Headings:
Introduction
Defining Characteristics and Appeal
What is Commercial Arbitration?
Appeal of Commercial Arbitration in an International Context
Pre-1945 Historical Evolution of Arbitration
Ancient Origins
Arbitration in Medieval Europe
Decline of the Effectiveness of Commercial Arbitration
Establishing An Effective Legal Framework
Hostility of Other Legal Systems to Commercial Arbitration
Summary
From the Paper
"Thousands of (but certainly not all) maritime and international commodity arbitrations are handled today in many of the world's great ports in a similar matter of fact and informal manner. Due to the scientific, mercantile, industrial and post-industrial revolutions which have occurred since the 16th century, the volume of world commerce has expanded and the means and methods of production, distribution and transportation have become much more complex. Global trade increased by an average per annum of 4.57 percent during the period 1870-1929, then (due to the Great Depression and World War II) by less than one per cent between 1929 and 1945. Since then, world trade in goods and services has mushroomed, increasing, according to the World Trade Organization, by an average of six and one half percent per annum between 1958 and 1993, from just $2.62 billion in 1986 to $6.3 billion in 1996."

From the Paper
"Competitive strategy is the bedrock on which companies base business decisions to reach their targets and achieve profitability. Formulating and implementing strategies in international business is much more complicated and difficult task than doing so in home or familiar markets. Competitive strategy deals with the development of abilities by a firm to keep ahead of competitors in the fields in which it operates. Firms develop competitive edge in global markets by possessing certain assets, abilities or characteristics. The primary elements of competitive advantage are the critical offer, the significant operating factors and the firm?s strategic resources. (Bennett and Blythe, 2002) Corporate strategies and international marketing strategies are linked closely and have a bearing on business performance."

SBD is a "holistic management construct that includes the entire value system from the origins of the raw materials to production processes and customer applications to end-of-life (EoL) solution." Encompassed is the complete spectrum of existing relationships with "supply networks, customers and stakeholders, and support service providers for providing business solutions and also handling wastes, residuals, and impacts." (Rainey, 2007) Accomplishing this is assured through the management concepts of enterprise management and 'life cycle thinking' (LCT)" which not only serves to build the awareness of the organization but as well builds the strategic management concept to include the mindfulness beyond the companies direct actions only."

Table of Contents:

NAFTA and the International Stage
NAFTA's Economic Impact
Conclusion
From the Paper
"While many detractors of NAFTA predicted that trade deficits would be the only result of this agreement, they also failed to observe that overall exports to these two other markets, the U.S. and Mexico, would increase greatly as well. Because the U.S. is such a large market it was expected to maintain an overall trade deficit but that NAFTA allowed Canada to increase its trade exports across such a wide swath of industries has been a boon to its economy. Dong states that most consumer products increased in amount vis-a-vis trade among the member states of NAFTA (26). Such an overall increase in consumer-oriented products would have been largely impossible without NAFTA guaranteeing market access to these two neighbouring countries. However, NAFTA's benefits seem to have benefited Canada more than the U.S. where its exports only increased meaningfully in a few product categories such as dog food whereas with Canada such increases were almost inclusive of every product category (Dong 26). Canada's increases in foreign trade and in trade relationships with the U.S. through the NAFTA apparatus elevated its status internationally."
