Impact of Islamic Economic Movement in Global History: Alternative or New Universal Paradigm? 

The commercial practice of Islamic finance emerged in the 1970s as a ‘new’ financial system different from interest-based conventional finance. However, when reviewing the history of the pre-modern Islamic world and Europe, it can also be observed that Islamic finance shares its feature with financial activities in the pre-modern era. Based on these observation, this lecture tries to propose a new definition of “the universal financial system” to the Islamic financial system.

How Can We Overcome the Financialization of Islamic Economic Practices? Issues and New Horizons’

The rapid growth of Islamic finance after 2000 has led to a new question on its practice. Critics of the current situation of Islamic finance contend that the newly developed Islamic financial products are not compatible with the ideal of Islamic economics. In order to overcome this situation, several new ideas were proposed by them. This lecture identifies these new trends calls «New Horizon’s’» in Islamic economics, and considers the characteristics of the trends and historical implications.

What Can We Learn from the Economic Wisdom of Islam? Its Implications for Our Next-Generation Global Society

The Islamic economy came into the spotlight globally during the latest global financial crisis. Islamic finance is often considered an anti-capitalist movement only for Muslims. However, the idea of an Islamic economy cannot fit in the existing framework of anti-capitalism. We can find useful wisdom for conceiving the future of capitalism from a perspective beyond the differences between pro and anti conflicts, or among religious beliefs. This lecture tries to clarify the wisdom of the Islamic economy behind these practices, and then will consider what we can learn from this teaching for a better future.
