Описание: This English edition of the correspondence of Khwāja 'Ubayd Allāh Aḥrār, the fifteenth-century Central Asian Naqshbandī Sufi shaykh, and his associates provides surprising new insights into the sociopolitical and economic history of premodern Central Asia and the influential roles of Sufi leaders of the time. It contains the extraordinary collection of autograph letters from the Majmū'a-yi murāsalāt, a unique manuscript housed at the Institute of Oriental Studies in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, with petitions to the Timurid court at Herat. The letters cover such topics as internecine conflict, peacemaking, taxation, property and endowments, trade, migration, Islamic piety and law, material support of shaykhs and students, and relief from oppression. Three introductory chapters discuss the Central Asian Naqshbandīya, Khwāja 'Ubayd Allāh Aḥrār, the social, historical, economic and political significance of the letters, and the manuscript and its authors. With the Persian transcription and a complete facsimile of the manuscript letters reproduced at the end of the work.

Описание: The third volume in the series features 26 new research notes from 16 different contributors, extends the reach of the first two volumes, looking not only at risk-related issues of our time, but also at ethical dimensions of issues such as identity management, culture risk, privacy and security. The authors wrote the research notes while students in the University of Washington's Master of Science in Information Management (MSIM) program. This volume is divided into six sections: cybersecurity, economics, privacy, government oversight, innovation and disasters. "The third volume of Reflections on Risk covers a wide span of issues our society faces in the modern age. Topics range from the multiple impacts resulting from the migration of our underlying economic, social, and government infrastructure toward a digital environment, to the complexities of disaster management in an increasingly complex and crowded world. The timely collection of essays by students taught under Annie's guidance illuminates questions we should all be thinking about every day, and showcases the talent that will be shaping our future." -- Mike Crandall, Principal Research Scientist, University of Washington Information School "....delivers a wealth of unique, creative considerations of risk derived from the headlines. From risks of robotic surgery and the implications of 3-D printing to security for the Olympic Games and the disappearance of MH Flight 370, these articles challenge those charged with mitigating risk to broaden their thinking. The plethora of teachable moments in this book should not be missed." -- Brian Tishuk, General Counsel, FS-ISAC Reflections on RIsk III is the fifth book published by Tautegory Press since 2011.
