Abstract

The twin threats of uncontrollable disease and global warming are causing economists to rethink their research agendas. From an Islamic perspective, these threats pose moral challenges that must be addressed. More focus on how economic policy can best provide a way forward is warranted. While it is correct to stress the differences in approach between Islamic and conventional economics, in present circumstances it is more urgent to work on policy areas. How can recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic be managed, and will inadequate access to vaccines penalize the poor further? If the planet itself becomes degraded, does mankind have a future? An appropriate allocation of Islamic finance can contribute to solutions, but a spirit of international economic cooperation is needed. © 2021. All Rights Reserved.

伊斯兰思想在受威胁世界经济政策制定中的应用

无法控制的疾病和全球变暖的双重威胁正促使经济学家重新思考他们的研究议程。从伊斯兰的角度来看，这些威胁构成了必须解决的道德挑战。更多地关注经济政策如何才能最好地提供前进的道路是有必要的。虽然强调伊斯兰经济学和传统经济学在方法上的差异是正确的，但在目前情况下，更迫切的是在政策领域开展工作。如何管理COVID-19大流行后的复苏?疫苗获取不足是否会进一步惩罚穷人?如果地球本身变得退化，人类还有未来吗?适当分配伊斯兰金融有助于解决问题，但需要一种国际经济合作精神。©2021。版权所有。
