Oil wealth in some countries and extreme underdevelopment and depency in other countries have set the stage where Western influence has not been so great in the Middle East and Africa since the time of European colonialism. Yet in the face of tremendous cultural pressures to 'secularize' and 'westernize', Islamic institutions have stood fast and have resisted their transformation from the West and in certain ways have enjoyed a revival and a constructive re-examination. Islamic law, the Shari'a, is one such basic institution which has been subjected to a great deal of this pressure because its essence is religious belief applied to the practical problems and affairs of daily living. 4aWomen - Legal Status, Laws, etc. - Sudan 4aWomen - Legal Status, Laws, etc. (Islamic Law) a11556/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11557/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11556/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11557/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11557/MKRI-P/XII-2008 a11556/MKRI-P/XII-2008
