This study provides an overview of homicide clearance in four West European countries: Finland, the Netherlands, Sweden and Switzerland. Using data from the European Homicide Monitor, employing similar definitions and uniform coding schemes, this study allowed for unique cross-country comparisons in factors influencing differences in homicide clearance rates. Findings based on homicides occurring in the period 2009–14 revealed overall low homicide rates in all countries, with a wide variety in homicide clearance rates, ranging from 77 percent in the Netherlands to 98 percent in Finland. Results further showed that both event-based as well as victim-based characteristics significantly influenced the likelihood of homicide clearance, suggesting that homicide clearance rates can, for a large part, be attributed to the prevalent types of homicide in each of these European countries.

This research discusses the determinants of inflation according to Al-Maqrizi, one of Ibnu Khaldun’s disciples. He argued that inflation is caused by natural factors and human error factors. Among those human error factors, government corruption and the excess supply of non-metal money. This study employs a critical review on the work of al-Maqrizi, ighatsatul ummah bi kasyfil ghummah, supported with a panel data regression on cross-country data related to the rate of inflation, the rate of corruption and the number of the natural disaster. The empirical data shows that the rate of inflation is positively related to the human error factors; corruption, tax, and money supply. The results indicated the relevancy of al-Maqirizi’s postulate to the modern days’ economy.  However, natural disasters are not proven as a significant factor for inflation in the country level. This paper contributes to the importance of the study on the classical Muslim Scholars thinking to understand current economic problems and the way to solve it.
