Should anarcho-capitalists investigate Islamic law?
According to Wikipedia: A significant difference between the classical and modern systems of Islamic law is that classical Islamic law was “independent of any state mechanism”, while modern Islamic law is “controlled by the state because the state often controls the legal scholars.” According to Sameer S. Vohra, “This control mechanism results in a lack of the sort of pluralism that once made the Islamic legal system as innovative and fluid as its United States counterpart.” So apparently there was a time when competing private tribunals would hand down judgments.
