    Louis BaeckARTICLERevue belge de philologie et d…1998

  • The Economic Thought of Classical Islam

    Open AccessLouis BaeckARTICLEDiogenes1991

    Most textbooks on the history of economic theory scarcely mention the Islamic contribution. The writings of Grice-Hutchinson, Lowry, and Essid are notable exceptions, in that they offer a broad summary of the Islamic literature that enriched the Mediterranean tradition.

In his analyses of ethics (Nicomachean Ethics: NE) and of politics (Politics: P), can be found the conceptual framework for the socio-economic organization of the polis in light of its "development crisis".
