論文/ArticlesThe Medieval Islamic Mediterranean trade was based mainly on two types of business cooperation. The first one was formal partnership, and the second informal business cooperation. Formal Partnership refers to institutions whose structures and rules are defined more or less precisely by law or custom with clearly defined limits, expectations, prescribed ways and procedures of achieving goals, asserting rights, or redressing grievances. On the other hand informal business cooperation is a set of informally defined institutions that do not possess the properties just mentioned above. They are unstructured, seemingly formless, very flexible, and above all very personal in nature. Based on the aforementioned, this paper explains how two modes of formal and informal business cooperation contributed greatly to the formation of networks among the Jewish traders in the Islamic world in connection with the Jewish religion.
