The possible indebtedness of political economy to fourth-century Greek thinkers has been widely debated; the contribution of Islam, on the other hand, is consistently forgotten. This volume addresses this neglect by examining in three parts the following questions: Is there a school of economic thought that can be considered specifically 'Arab', or have the Arabs succeeded in combining the Greek heritage with other, more oriental currents? Muslim economic thought has enriched the Hellenic contribution to economic thought in the areas of government of the kingdom by the caliph, of the city and the household organisation; the Arab concept of tadbîr should be examined in relation to each of these three levels. In rejecting profit, usury, egoism and monopoly, and in preaching moderation, altruism, the practice of fair prices, and unselfishness, Islam inaugurated an 'economic system' which has derived from that of the Greeks and which laid the basis for pre-capitalist thought.

Why are globalizing processes unevenly distributed between poor and wealthy countries? What effect do these disparities have on the lives of ordinary people? The contributors to this volume find answers to these questions in the Mediterranean, a region divided between the wealthier nations of the north shore and their poorer neighbours to the south. The divergent histories, economies, cultural and linguistic backgrounds, education systems, and political structures of these two regions lead to explanations not only for uneven globalization but also for the wave of demonstrations that have sparked unrest in North Africa and the Near East.

Globalization has challenged concepts such as local culture and cultural autonomy. And the rampant commodification of cultural products has challenged the way we define culture itself. Have these developments transformed the relationship between culture and autonomy? Have traditional notions of cultural autonomy been recast? This book showcases the work of scholars who employ a broad definition of culture to trace how issues of cultural autonomy have played out in various arenas, including literary criticism, indigenous societies, the Slow Food movement, and skateboarding culture. Although they focus on the marginalized issue of autonomy, they reveal that globalization has both limited as well as created new forms of cultural autonomy.

Pemikiran dan Praktik Ekonomi Islam Sejak Masa Nabi Muhammad SAW. Hingga Masa Kontemporer

Ekonomi Islam yang telah kembali ke kancah ekonomi saat ini, bukanlah hal baru dan tiba-tiba muncul tanpa landasan yang jelas. Karena suatu konsep pemikiran dan teoretis yang telah dapat dipraktikkan pastilah hadir dan berlangsung secara bertahap dalam periode dan tahapan tertentu dan bukan muncul secara tiba-tiba. Melalui buku yang sederhana ini penulis berusaha menemukan kembali jejak-jejak kebenaran sejarah yang menjelaskan periode dan fase munculnya konsep-konsep pemikiran ekonomi Islam secara teoritis dan praktis yang telah diterapkan sebagai suatu ekonomi berbasis syariah Islam. Pemikiran dan praktik tersebut sengaja diabaikan oleh sejarah dan sarjana pemikir barat sebagai akibat ketidakmampuan kapitalisme dan sosialisme dalam memberikan solusi atas permasalahan sosial ekonomi dalam perekonomian dunia. Buku ini mengupas tentang sejarah pemikiran ekonomi Islam di era klasik dimulai dari masa Nabi Muhammad SAW berada di Madinah hingga masa pemerintahan khulafaurrasyidin, hingga masa kontemporer serta ekonomi Islam di Indonesia beserta penerapannya.

Love What You Eat presents an eating plan that encourages people to change their habits and their lives-one food at a time. If youre looking for weight loss, more energy, better overall health, or all of the above, this book will be your guide. Love What You Eat educates the reader about the many factors that contribute to overeating and obesity, while teaching the importance of mindful eating for long-term health and wellness. Learning to eat differently without starving your body or your wallet is my unique approach. I believe this book will give the reader options they want and the simplicity they desire. As a physician, I am familiar with how the body works and what it takes to make it work properly. As the obesity epidemic continues to rage out of control and the number of people developing metabolic syndrome increases, more and more lives are at risk. We need to have a different relationship with food and what we call fuel for or bodies. Love What You Eat will show the reader how to do that.

Deux méditerranées

Deux méditerranées

En prenant la Méditerranée du Sud comme référence privilégiée pour une étude sur la mondialisation et l'autonomie, nous nous retrouvons face à des États qui ont connu la modernisation, mais pas la modernité : absence de société civile, attachement aux intérêts nationaux, permanence de l'idée de souveraineté et de frontières, survivance de gouvernement détenant le monopole de la violence rendue légitime. Ces pays se trouvent aujourd'hui tiraillés entre la recherche d'une plus grande autonomie, surtout culturelle, l'établissement d'une stratégie d'ancrage à une Europe de plus en plus frileuse et les effets dissolvants de la mondialisation. Il existe donc bien une problématique méditerranéenne opposant le Nord et le Sud par rapport à la mondialisation et à l'autonomie et c'est tout l'intérêt de cette contribution pluridisciplinaire. De nombreux spécialistes représentant divers pays méditerranéens et différents domaines du savoir livrent leur analyse sur la question : économie, histoire, littérature, science politique, musicologie, anthropologie alimentaire, islamologie et psychanalyse.
