The Impact

This paper discusses the impact of western accounting technologies on belief structures such as those of the Islamic faith. It assesses a theory of accounting reporting originally proposed by Baydoun and Willett (1994). It goes on to consider the nature and origins of western materialist philosophy and contrasts the belief structure of Islam with the West. The paper also ex.amines the historical context in which western values became adopted in Muslim societies and discusses the policy issues that confront Islamic accounting standard setters.

Multiple Measure

We introduce the concept of a fuzzy measure and describe the process of combining fuzzy measures to form new measures. We discuss the role of fuzzy measures in modeling uncertain information and its use in modeling granular uncertain information with the aid of measure based belief structures. We turn to the problem of fusing multiple measure based belief structures. First we look at the case when the belief structures being fused have the same focal elements. Then we turn to case where the structures being fused have different focal elements. Finally we compare measure-based fusion with Dempster’s rule.

This chapter considers how modernity has affected the livelihood of Paliyar community and how they have been affected by forest dispossession. Whether the weaning away from the forests has been manufactured or part of the systemic exploitation is discernible. The chapter traces the history of the Paliyars, their belief structures, and indigenous knowledge within sacred spaces. The chapter also presents a discussion of the relation between land and spiritual tradition as well as the importance of land to identity, transfer of oral tradition, and indigenous traditional knowledge. Removing the Paliyar from the land continues to erode their tradition, knowledge, and identity.
