This paper uncovers that Sjafruddin Prawiranegara (1911-1989), a former charismatic leader of Partai Majelis Syuro Muslimin Indonesia (Masyumi/Council of Indonesian Muslim Associations), makes the normative sources of the Qur’an and Hadith (sayings ascribed to the Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him) actual as primary moral messages to solve a set of social, political, and economic problems in Indonesia. This article depicts this finding by referring to three of his works as the primary resources of this article and to other twenty-nine secondary resources authored by other scholars.

This chapter examines the ideological and economic dimensions of the Zionist concept “conquest of the sea” that emerged in the 1920s and 1930s by focusing on the role played by Arnold Bernstein in the emergence of an example of a Jewish shipping industry during the interwar period. In 1895, Theodor Herzl characterized the future Jewish state as the end product of an organized mass migration and endorsed the notion of “conquest of the sea” as a necessary component of this process. The chapter first provides a background on the Palestine Shipping Company founded by Bernstein before discussing the spatial factors that influenced the emergence of a Jewish shipping industry. It suggests that the construction of a Jewish maritime “space” was guided by ideological clashes, economic and political interests, and personal networks.


Significance He is Beijing's preferred candidate and appears to have a cordial relationship with President Xi Jinping. He takes the helm at a moment when relations with China are the tensest they have been in more than a decade. Impacts Chu will stick to the '1992 Consensus' that there is only one China. Chu will take a more cautious approach to cross-Strait cooperation than Taiwan's last Kuomintang president, Ma Ying-jeou (2008-16). The task of making the Kuomintang a ruling party again will probably require a more charismatic leader than Chu.

In August 1968, the Soviet Union sent troops into Czechoslovakia to crush the burgeoning spirit of reform known as the “Prague Spring”. The Soviet invasion and the return of oppressive government measures triggered the flight of twenty-seven thousand people, eleven thousand of whom came to Canada.Using newly released archival records, this paper explores how the Canadian government approached the refugee crisis and argues that confident officials, buoyed by a charismatic leader and operating in an era of improved East-West relations, manipulated the conventional definition of a refugee and consciously adopted policies that enabled large numbers of Czechoslovakian refugees to resettle in Canada.

The problem of improving the administrative component of the fiscal service in the context of its reform is raised in the article. It is pointed out the importance and necessity of forming a team of officials capable of ensuring the productivity, feasibility and effectiveness of implementing quality solutions for solving tax and customs problems. It has been determined that the effectiveness of a management team is determined by the ability of the manager to exercise his or her authority, that is, the ability to use the existing leader's potential, as well as the desire and ability to develop it. The types of organizations and stages of management team development are shown. The key leadership qualities and features of the manager of the management team are determined; the importance of developing the leadership potential of the head of the fiscal service in the context of institutional changes has been proved. The authors of the study found that the work performed by a management team professionally managed by a charismatic leader could give the necessary effect and ensure the subsequent transition of the fiscal service to a new level of organizational development in the status of separate full tax and fiscal services.
