Ibn Khaldun’s Political Economy

Year 2016, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 1 - 33, 30.12.2016

Abstract

The celebrated ideas of Ibn Khaldun in respect of the themes of historicism, civilization, and political economy are critically examined in the light of the qur'anic methodological worldview on the same. A comparative approach is also maintained with the historistic ideas of several Islamic scholastic thinkers and the occidental scholarship. Selected applied topics are examined to bring out the validity of the critical argumentation and the Islamic perspective on these topics. These topics, briefly examined, point out the differences between the qur'anic interactive, integrative, and evolutionary learning world-system and the secular Khaldunian approach to the same themes. The other topic briefly examined is the nature of money in qur'anic perspective and Khaldunian theory of historicism, civilization, and political economy. The comparative neo-liberal theory of capitalism is also examined in the general and partial equilibrium contexts of macroeconomics and microeconomics, respectively, within the comparative politico-economic contexts of Ibn Khaldun’s thought. A critical study of Khaldunian theory of historicism, civilization, and within these of political economy.

İbni Haldun’un Ekonomi Politiği

Year 2016, Volume: 2 Issue: 2, 1 - 33, 30.12.2016

Abstract

Ibn-i Haldun'un tarihselcilik, uygarlaşma ve politik ekonomi temalarıyla ilgili olarak ünlenen fikirleri Kur'an'ın metodolojik dünya görüşünün ışığında eleştirel olarak incelenmektedir. Bir karşılaştırmalı yaklaşım ayrıca çeşitli İslam bilim adamlarının tarihsel fikirleri ve batı ilmi ile sürdürülür. Seçilen uygulamalı konular, eleştirel tartışmaların ve İslami perspektifin bu konularda geçerli olup olmadığını ortaya çıkarmak için incelenmektedir. Kısaca incelenen bu konular, Kur'an'ın etkileşimli, bütünleştirici ve evrimsel öğrenme dünya sistemi ile aynı temalara yönelik seküler Halduncu yaklaşım arasındaki farklılıklara işaret ederler. Kısaca incelenen bir diğer konu, Kur'an perspektifinde ve İbn-i Haldun'un tarihçilik, uygarlık ve siyasi ekonomi teorisinde paranın doğasıdır. Kapitalizmin karşılaştırmalı neo-liberal teorisi, İbn-i Halduncu düşüncenin karşılaştırmalı politik ekonomi bağlamlarında sırasıyla makroekonomi ve mikro ekonominin genel ve kısmi denge bağlamlarında incelenir. Ibn-i Haldun'un tarihselcilik, medeniyet teorisi ve bu ekonomi politikaları içindeki eleştirel bir çalışmadır.
