At the turn of the century, civil justice in rural communities was organized into three non-judicialized instances : 1) the Commissioners' Court, 2) the Court of Justices of the Peace and 3) Conciliation measures. In this paper the institutional characteristics of these three community-type instances are examined. A study of available judicial statistics indicates that the level of activity of these instances went through a pronounced decline during the period between 1880 and 1920, specifically because of the high inflation rate. A brief study of judicial records of the Commissioners' Court of Saint-Raymond de Portneuf makes it possible to draw a profile of those who came under the jurisdiction of this kind of court. An examination of legal commentary and judgements on applications for the writ of certiorari reveals the perception that the legal world then had of rural justice.

The Tanzanian economy has remained one of the limited numbers of countries that has experienced a relatively high inflation rate, accompanied by high fiscal deficits for a prolonged period in the absence of any hyperinflation. This paper examines the deficit-inflation relationship in the Tanzanian economy and establishes the causal link that runs from the budget deficit to the inflation rate usingcointegration analysis over the period 1967-2001. Some dynamic simulations are done to gauge the effect of a change in the budget deficit and gross domestic product on inflation over time. Due to monetisation of the budget deficit, significant inflationary effects are found for increases in the budget deficit.

One legal issue that has not been clarified properly by Muslim jurists is whether the creditor can claim the rate of inflation from the debtor, especially when the economy is suffering from a high inflation rate. One area where the issue of inflation was taken seriously was the payment of dower (mahr) fixed in Iranian money. Generally speaking, there was no clear ruling in the law allowing women to claim more than the face value of their dower, while the purchasing power of Iranian money had dropped steeply in comparison with the date of marriage. In order to tackle this problem, Parliament passed a very important law in 1997 (reiterated in 2013), that provides for the indexation of dower. This article deals with the indexation of money-dower and the way it is assessed under Iranian law. This law is the foundation of the law of inflation in Iran.

The decline of the Zimbabwean economy characterised by the high inflation rate has rendered it difficult for Zimbabwean manufacturing to retain talented employees. The quantitative research methodology was adopted in this paper. The sample size of the study comprised 100 respondents who were randomly selected from the manufacturing companies in Zimbabwe. The sample size of the study was made out of 10 managing directors 10 managers 10 supervisors and 70 employees drawn from the 50 manufacturing companies that were randomly selected. It was established that the companies are failing to retain talented employees and a lot of the employees are leaving the organisations. Retrenchments and restructurings have become the order of the day. The study recommended that employees needed to implement employee retention strategies to remain viable.

Investigation of reasons for being out of school and how to overcome the number of out of school children by identifying some implications for teacher education is the focus of this study. Thematic analysis was used to explore these reasons by using semi structured interviews of 216 children. Views from social media (Face book) were also collected to get the clear picture of out of school children’s problems. The analysis was conducted with the help of N Vivo 11 plus software. Data highlighted many reasons of being out of school using codes, themes and subthemes. These reasons were unfriendly schools, poverty, illiteracy, gender, disability, and jobless fathers’, fear of sexual harassment, domestic conflicts, high inflation rate and family size. As some of the reasons such as gender bias, unfriendly schools, disability have direct implications for teacher education. Efforts, therefore, were made to identify the required changes in the teacher education. A strategic plan to overcome these barriers was defined at the end for teacher education programs.

This paper introduces a framework for assessing global shock spillover specifically address the global financial spillovers to the Saudi economy by exploring the main fundamental determinants of creditworthiness including key global factors, Macroeconomic and Financial Sector vulnerability. Finally highlights the extent to which the Saudi financial system have been able to regain a sound standing in the aftermath of the recent financial crises to which they have been subjected. The main conclusion is that global financial crisis has had limited direct impact so far on domestic financial markets but, the country was and still effected through trade, reflected in high inflation rate, tighter liquidity and weak investor confidence. Government generous spending has been successful in reducing the impact of the global crisis, but Saudi Arabia should adopt alternative venue to the current high spending levels. In light of anticipated fall in oil prices, the current strategy is not sustainable.

The misery index criterion model was developed by Golden, et al. (1987) to explain the public's preference for having the inflation rate lower than the unemployment rate. This model clearly fails to explain the prevailing super high inflation rate in Latin American countries. This paper attempts to introduce a generalized weighted misery index and to show that, by following the weighted misery-minimization process, the model can explain the Latin American experience and also include the American experience as a special case.

Inflation is defined as the general price trend. The tendency here is that the rise is not a momentary one. High inflation and uncontrollable rate can disrupt banking efforts in mobilizing public funds. This is because the high inflation rate causes the real interest rate to decrease. Such facts will reduce the public's desire to save so that the growth of banking funds sourced from the community will decline. This study aims to determine the effect of inflation on the profitability of Bank Syariah period 2012-2014. The results of this study indicate that inflation has no significant effect on the profitability of Sharia Banks in the period 2012-2014. It can be seen from the hypothesis test where tcount is smaller than ttable and Sig> 0,05. No significant effect is because Islamic banks are not obliged to pay returns in a fixed amount, but based on the percentage of profits earned. Also supported by the correlation value of 0.161 which means the relationship can be ignored. The coefficient of determination between inflation on ROA with a value of 2.6%. The rest, profitability is influenced by other factors namely CAR, Operational Efficiency, FDR, NPF and Exchange Rate (Exchange Rate). Kata Kunci: Inflasi, Profitabilitas, Bank Syariah.

Tingkat inflasi yang tinggi dapat mengganggu perekonomian. Penelitian ini mencoba untuk menganalisis faktor-faktor yang menyebabkan inflasi di Indonesia. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan kuantitatif dengan menggunakan periode data sekunder 2004-2014. Hasil analisis kualitatif menunjukkan bahwa tingkat inflasi periode 204-2014 di Indonesia berfluktuasi. Sementara hasil VECM menunjukkan bahwa tingkat inflasi di Indonesia dipengaruhi oleh variabel nilai tukar, uang beredar dan tingkat konsumsi. Sementara itu variabel GDP memiliki pengaruh negatif pada inflasi. Untuk mengendalikan tingkat inflasi pemerintah dapat menggunakan variabel ekonomi makro seperti nilai tukar, uang memasok baik. Selain mengendalikan konsumsi masyarakat pada tingkat yang baik dan meningkatkan produksi barang dan jasa untuk memenuhi kebutuhan masyarakat.

The strong performance of the Brazilian economy during the 2000s allows the expansion of various sectors, including the advertising market, associated with the growth of the domestic market and the intensification of trade relations with other countries. The main objective of this study is to test the Relative Constancy Principle (RCP) in the context of greater integration with international economy, controlling for several factors that may exhibit some influence on the performance of the advertising market. We adopt a panel data of two periods for 49 countries and estimate a linear fixed effects model with dummies, controlling for the heterogeneity and unobserved factors of the countries. The results suggest that the advertising market of China, the United States and India have significant patterns above the average. The study does not support the RCP, yet they identify important regularities in those countries in relation to the advertising market. The level of activity and international reserves have a significant effect on the advertising market in countries; the higher the share of industry and services (urbanization), the higher the expenses on advertising; the inflation rate is nonlinearly related to the advertising market performance; the economic freedom index and the presence of Generations X and Y are associated with a reduction in advertising expenditure.

The purpose of this paper is examining the Laffer curve for inflation tax. To do so we have used Hansen (1996, 2000), threshold regression model to study whether a non-linear relationship between inflation Tax and inflation based on two regimes of inflation (low and high inflation regimes). Our findings support a standard Laffer curve shape in Iran with a threshold inflation rate of 15.24 percentage points. In other words, only at inflation below this rate inflation tax will increase as a result of higher inflation.
