Abstract

This paper aims to briefly describe shura and will culminate in explaining the differences between shura and democracy which are products of secularism. This study uses a juridical theoretical approach by analyzing various kinds of literature, both Islamic literature and other documents about the concept of Majlis Shura and Democracy. The primary materials are in the form of Al-Qur'an and Sunnah Studies and the book Asy Shura fi al-Kitab wa as-Sunnah wa 'inda Ulama al-Muslimin by Prof. Dr. Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Salih ash-Salih. Then analyzed by reducing the data then concluded. The results of this study explain the basic concept of Shura in Islam, the urgency of the concept of Shura and the conditions for becoming a member of Shura and the similarities and differences between the concept of sura and democracy. The conclusion of this study is that shura and democracy are not the same, because shura is a method that originates from Rabb al-Basyar (Rabb of mankind), namely Allah, while democracy is the fruit of thought from weak humans which of course cannot be separated from deficiencies.

Abstract. Being a large superpower, the US is not immune from the crisis. In 2008, the US experienced a crisis in its economy. Many economists argue that the economic crisis in the United States which has not completely ended until now was caused by subprime mortgages. This US securities crisis has spread to all corners of the world, Alan Greenspan, former Governor of the US Central Bank said that this financial crisis is an event that occurs once every 100 years, "Fasten your seatbelt, we're facing the global financial crisis" is a warning issued by Alan Greenspan regarding this global financial crisis. Mortgage in this case is a debt to buy property where the property is then used as collateral (Home Ownership Credit). Mortgage loans are divided into two types; Prime Mortgage & Subprime Mortgage. Simply put, subprime mortgages are mortgages with higher risks. Prime mortgages are usually given to borrowers who meet 2 criteria. First, borrowers who have a good credit history (eg never bankrupt, not late in paying bills). Second, can show the capacity to repay the debt (eg large income, low loan-to-property ratio, etc.). Subprime mortgages are loans to people who do not meet the above criteria. Qualitative methods were used and the theory of adaptive foreign policy models was applied. The results of the study found that the US policy of raising import tariffs that triggered a trade war was influenced by three variables. The external change variable is the emergence of China as a new superpower. The structural change variable is obtained from the change in the US political structure from the Democratic Party to the Republican Party. From the leadership factor, namely Trump's negative perception of China since before he became president. The conclusion is that the policy is a convulsive type adaptive foreign policy that describes significant changes in both the external and internal environments.Keywords: Compulsive; Leadership; Republican; Subprime.
