The purpose of this study is to determine the solutions to financial crises based on the perspective of Islamic management. It also discusses the roles of faith and Islamic monotheism in managing the global financial crisis. The qualitative method was used to obtain data from books and articles related to Islamic management based on Qur’an and Hadith. These data were further analyzed and used as a solution to problems related to the global financial crisis by Islamic values. The result showed that the values of faith and monotheism following organizational policy and management tend to minimize financial speculative actions and greed. In addition, these values assist managers in planning, organizing, directing, and supervising their subordinates under Islamic rules and regulations. The application of this value is mainly reflected in the aspects of behavior, organizational aspects, and system aspects through the mechanism of placing the sharia supervisory board and profit-sharing in Islamic financial institutions, simplicity, and avoiding is in organizational management as well as the principle of prudence and avoiding speculative action. This research supports the role of the Islamic management system in winning finances and implementing organizational policies to overcome global financial problems.

In the wake of the global financial crisis, the trajectory of legal reforms is likely to turn towards more transparency regulation. This article argues that transparency regulation will take on a new role of surveillance as intelligence and data mining expand in the wholesale financial sector, supporting the creation of designated systemic risk oversight regulators.The role of market discipline, which has been acknowledged to be weak leading up to the financial crisis, is likely to be eclipsed by a more technocratic governance in the financial sector. In this article, however, concerns are raised about the expansion of technocratic surveillance and whether financial sector participants would internalise the discipline of regulatory control. Certain endemic features of the financial sector will pose challenges for financial regulation even in the surveillance age.

This chapter examines the challenges involved in attaining the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in Africa in the wake of the 2008 global financial crisis and highlights important lessons for future financing of global initiatives. The 2008 global financial crisis provided a very important caution: global initiatives are only as good as their global conditions. The crisis had very real consequences for the education sector, particularly through the reduction of adequate funding. The chapter first considers the consequences of the global financial crisis to education, taking into account the role of foreign aid, before discussing the cases of primary education in Ghana and Zimbabwe. It concludes by suggesting some best practices for learning from the failures to education from the 2008 agenda.
