Islam, Standards, and Technoscience

In Global Halal Zones

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Halal production, trade, and standards have become essential to state-regulated Islam and to companies in Malaysia and Singapore, giving these two countries a special position in the expanding global market for halal products: they are the only nations where state bodies certify halal products as well as spaces and work processes, and so consumers can find state halal-certified products from Malaysia and Singapore in shops around the world. This book provides an exploration of the role of halal production, trade, and regulation, explaining how the global markets for halal comprise divergent zones in which Islam, markets, regulatory institutions, and technoscience interact and diverge.
