Abstract

Purpose

This study aims to investigate the viewpoints of heterodox economic thoughts and Islamic economic thought concerning the concept of waste. Additionally, it explores the shared criticisms that both perspectives hold against mainstream economic thought in relation to waste.

Design/methodology/approach

First of all, the concept of waste is examined and the global effects of waste are investigated. Criticisms directed in the context of waste in mainstream economics in the context of heterodox school thoughts are examined. Likewise, criticisms directed in the context of waste in mainstream economics in the context of Islamic economic thoughts are examined. Finally, the common and different aspects of heterodox and Islamic economic thoughts were discussed, and the common criticisms of mainstream economic thought’s point of view toward waste were examined. This study is a theoretical, qualitative study.

Findings

Although both ideas have different aspects, heterodox and Islamic economic thoughts believe that the mainstream economy, which is based on capitalism and materialism, creates waste by ignoring the long-term social and environmental consequences of economic activity. They argue that the pursuit of profits and growth, without considering the impact on society and the environment, leads to an inefficient and unsustainable use of resources.

Originality/value

The best author’s knowledge, by emphasizing the common and different aspects of Islamic economics and heterodox thoughts, this study is the first to examine the concept of waste in the context of the common aspects of these ideas.

伊斯兰经济学和异端方法背景下的废物概述:关于共同的论述
目的 本研究旨在探讨异端经济思想和伊斯兰经济思想关于废物概念的观点。首先,研究了浪费的概念,并调查了浪费的全球影响。在异端学派思想的背景下,对主流经济学中有关浪费的批评进行了研究。同样,还研究了在伊斯兰经济思想背景下对主流经济学中浪费现象的批评。最后,讨论了异端经济思想和伊斯兰经济思想的共同点和不同点,并研究了主流经济思想对浪费观点的共同批评。本研究是一项理论性、定性研究。研究结果尽管两种思想都有不同的方面,但异端经济思想和伊斯兰经济思想都认为,以资本主义和物质主义为基础的主流经济忽视了经济活动对社会和环境的长期影响,从而造成了浪费。他们认为,一味追求利润和增长,而不考虑对社会和环境的影响,会导致资源的低效和不可持续利用。原创性/价值据作者所知,本研究通过强调伊斯兰经济学和异端思想的共同点和不同点,首次从这些思想的共同点出发研究了浪费的概念。
