The impact of insurance on the development of the civil liability system: A comparative study

2025-04-07T04:31:08+00:00

This study aims to investigate the impact and evolution of liability for tortious acts (civil liability) in light of the emergence and proliferation of insurance. It focuses on analyzing the extent to which the development of insurance contributes to altering the internal equilibrium of the civil liability system, thereby paving the way for the principle of compensation and guarantee, rather than solely focusing on fault and penalizing the perpetrator, as traditionally advocated by civil liability. In practice, fault loses its significance once insurance is applied in the realm of individual liability, leading to a gradual decline in the concept of fault and a shift from personal liability to objective liability, which relies on guarantee or risk as a result of scientific and industrial advancements.

Difficulties in the application of International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards IAS/IFRS in Algeria: A literature review

2025-04-08T06:48:15+00:00

This study aims to highlight the difficulties and challenges associated with implementing International Accounting Standards and International Financial Reporting Standards in Algeria, particularly in light of the accounting reform undertaken by the country in early 2007. This reform led to the adoption of the Financial Accounting System, which is rooted in the philosophy and conceptual framework of international accounting standards. The reform was introduced as part of Algeria’s efforts to align with the global business environment and in response to calls from international accounting bodies advocating for greater harmonization of accounting practices worldwide. The study reached several conclusions, the most significant being that Algeria’s business environment is not yet equipped to effectively apply IAS and IFRS. This is due to the absence of an active financial market and a shortage of qualified experts capable of comprehending the philosophy behind this accounting transition. Additionally, the predominance of tax law over accounting regulations, the weakness of academic and professional training among practitioners, and the lack of continuous updates to accounting laws and regulations in line with international developments further hinder the successful implementation of these standards.

The impact of foreign direct investment on economic diversification in Saudi Arabia: An empirical study for the period (2005–2022)

2025-04-11T02:15:55+00:00

This study aims to analyze the impact of Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) on economic diversification in Saudi Arabia during the period (2005–2022), with a focus on structural and institutional factors within the framework of Vision 2030, which seeks to reduce dependency on natural resources. The study employs the Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) model to examine the dynamic relationship between variables, using data on the Economic Diversification Index (DIV), Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), Productive Capacity Index (PCI), and Total Natural Resources (TNR). The results indicate that FDI has not had a significant impact on economic diversification due to its concentration in oil-related sectors. The findings also reveal a strong negative effect of natural resources (TNR), reflecting the "resource curse" phenomenon. Furthermore, the study highlights the weak influence of productive capacities (PCI) in the absence of supportive policies for innovation and infrastructure. The study recommends directing foreign investments toward non-traditional sectors (such as renewable energy and advanced manufacturing), enhancing technological infrastructure, reducing oil dependency by diversifying income sources, and activating international partnerships for technology transfer and local value chain development.

Tourism is a social and human phenomenon that has been known to mankind since its existence on the surface of the earth. It has gained significant economic importance due to the economic returns it provides to the concerned state.

Analysis of the global and local emerging issues and its influence on the Ethiopian sugar industry

2025-04-16T23:56:21+00:00

This article aimed to assess the global and local emerging issues and the effects s of these issues on the Ethiopian sugar industry. A qualitative research design was applied in the course of the study. Data was collected from the participants in the Ethiopian Sugar Industry Group and the Group’s key stakeholders through interview and Focus Group Discussion. Fifty three participants, selected through a non-probability sampling method, took part in providing data, which later was analyzed qualitatively. It was concluded that the shifting of consumer preferences in the global market due to the growing health concerns, the sugar production volatility caused by climate change, pressure of global forces calling for eco-friendliness in production, and strict competition between the old-new emerging markets for the sugar product are the major key issues which determine the sugar industry’s development prospects in Ethiopia. The interaction between global issues like sugar price and demand trend, trade policies, and technological advancements in production and processes, and the local situations of a nation such as state policies, production efficiency and related resources like the labour determines the industry's ability to compete both locally and internationally. Thus, in order to address the global and local challenges impacting Ethiopia's sugar industry development, actionable strategies such as heightening the private sector investment to bring new insights, technologies and experiences to the industry, continued infrastructure development, industry diversification into the value-added products, implementation of the environment-friendly production practices, and introducing supportive policies that address the supply chain issues are suggested.
