The Informal Economy and Islamic Finance

The characteristics, nature, determinants, and size of the informal economy differ from country to country. While much research has been carried out in the context of advanced economies, less attention has been given to developing countries, especially those in the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) nations. This is one of the first books to investigate Islamic finance’s stance on the informal economy and to discuss it from an OIC perspective. It covers the various definitions, historical development, types, and determining factors behind the shadow economy and the reasons for people’s preference to join and stay in the informal economy. Similarly, different theories are discussed...

Essentials of Medicinal and Aromatic Crops

Medicinal and aromatic crops (MACs) are high-value crops since the natural products obtained from them are low-volume high-value commodities that have numerous applications in various sectors such as the food, beverage, food supplement, flavor and fragrance, perfumery and cosmetics, pharmaceutical and aromatherapy industries. In addition, the plant biomass is used in the production of teas and medical applications in traditional and also modern medicines. MACs are important mainly because they contain plant secondary metabolites such as essential oils, alkaloids, glygosides, saponins, tannins, vitamins and other bioactives.

Islamic Finance in the Financial Markets of Europe, Asia and America

Among international financial centres (IFCs), London is known as the ‘Western hub of Islamic Finance’, on account of its well-developed legal infrastructure. However, Brexit has threatened London’s status and consequently, the financial services industry is moving to Dublin to continue operating in the Euro region.

Whatever Happened to the Egyptian Revolution?

In his latest exploration of the Egyptian malaise, Galal Amin first looks at the events of the months preceding the Revolution of 25 January 2011, pointing out the most important factors behind popular discontent. He then follows the ups and downs (mainly the downs) of the Revolution: the causes of rising hopes and expectations, mingled with successive disappointments, sometimes verging on despair, not least in the case of the presidential elections, when the Egyptian people were invited to choose between a rock and a hard place. This is followed by an outline of a possible brighter future for Egypt, based on a more balanced and faster growing economy, and a more democratic and equitable society, within a truly independent, modern, and secular state. The story of what happened to the 2011 Revolution may be a sad one, but if viewed within the larger context of Egypt's economic and social developments of the last century, on which the author's previous books threw very useful light, it can be regarded as one important step forward toward a much better future.

Institutional economics claims that institutions and policies rather than the size of labour force, technology or capital investment are pivotal for growth or under-development. In this regard there are two kinds of institutions: external institutions expressed in the form of laws, organisations, regulations, companies, banks and the like and internal institutions, which are found in the hearts and consciences of individuals. Against this backdrop, this book acquaints readers with the basic concepts related to institutional economics. It then brings to light the theoretical concepts related to the institutional perspectives on Islamic economics, particularly highlighting areas where Islamic ...

Black Wind from the Kurdish Hills

This poignant tale follows the lives of three friends—Ahmad, Kadir, and Raza—growing up in Halabja, Iraq, as they struggle to survive in the tumultuous region also known as Kurdistan. Narrated by members of Kadir’s family, this intimate portrait details the boys’ move from a carefree childhood in a Kurdish community in the 1960s to a period of domestic unrest and fear, first with the onset of the Peshmerga war, and later with the rise of Saddam Hussein. As the years pass, these boyhood friends are forced to face the tragedies of war and are eventually drawn into the conflict that, by virtue of their birth, they cannot escape.
