Economic Growth and Human Resource Development in an Islamic Perspective by Ehsan Ahmed Pdf
As most economists would agree, the major goal of economic development is to benefit humanity. However economic development without any moral, ethical, and social values will only enhance the process of material well-being without any true sense of direction. The theme of the Fourth International Islamic Economics seminar dealt with these aspects of economic development. The seminar, entitled "Economic Growth and Human Resource Development in an Islamic Perspective," was held during May 1992 and was a joint undertaking of the Association of Muslim Social Scientists (AMSS) and the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT). This volume is based on eight papers selected after a confidential peer review of all papers submitted or presented at the conference. The first four papers are theoretical and cover different aspects of human resource development from an Islamic perspective, whereas the last four papers discuss empirical evidence from some select Muslim countries.
