With the impressive emergence of Islamic finance as a branch of Islamic economics, the need for a solid knowledge base that encompasses theories, thoughts and applications related to the subject increased in importance. However, writing about Islamic economics is a great challenge due to the differences in opinion on many of its issues. This includes methodologies for determining the Islamic perspective on economic concepts and issues as well as applicable solutions for today’s economic and social problems. It is further argued that Islamic economics topics are not as clear as those in conventional economics as they have their own religious, spiritual and social dimensions. The points of c...

This academic initiative fills this obvious literature gap. The scope and coverage of this Bibliography is manifestly comprehensive, encompassing the different sources of information (print or non-print) ...
This book covers the broad spectrum of system dynamics methodologies for the modelling and simulation of complex systems: systems thinking, causal diagrams, systems structure of stock and flow diagrams, parameter estimation and tests for confidence building in system dynamics models. It includes a comprehensive review of model validation and policy design and provides a practical presentation of system dynamics modelling. It also offers numerous worked-out examples and case studies in diverse fields using STELLA and VENSIM. The system dynamics methodologies presented here can be applied to nearly all areas of research and planning, and the simulations provided make the complicated issues more easily understandable. System Dynamics: Modelling and Simulation is an essential system dynamics and systems engineering textbook for undergraduate and graduate courses. It also offers an excellent reference guide for managers in industry and policy planners who wish to use modelling and simulation to manage complex systems more effectively, as well as researchers in the fields of modelling and simulation-based systems thinking.
Ekonomi Mikro Islam: Pendekatan Integratif ini adalah buku yang unik. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan integratif buku ini menelusuri visi semesta dan nalar ekonomi mikro modern untuk diintegrasikan dalam visi semesta, nalar, dan metodologi ilmiah Islam. Pembahasan dalam buku ini, dengan demikian, dijuruskan untuk memenuhi penyediaan literatur ilmu ekonomi Islam yang dikemas dalam metodologi integratif. Berbeda dengan buku-buku ekonomi mikro Islam yang sudah ada, buku ini menyajikan analisis ekonomi mikro Islam dengan cara mengikuti struktur keilmuan ekonomi mikro modern. Tapi perlu dicatat bahwa ini tidak berarti sekedar mengimitasi tradisi ilmiah modern. Sedapat mungkin buku ini menghindari penyajian informasi ilmiah yang bersifat doktrinal. Berbasiskan pada spirit dan metodologi iqra yaitu “mengambil yang baik dan melengkapi yang kurang” buku ini menghadirkan ilmu ekonomi mikro Islam dalam cita rasa ilmiah modern. Selamat membaca.

Mobilitas tenaga kerja internasional merupakan respon individu dan negara terhadap kelebihan atau kekurangan tenaga kerja di negara tertentu, karena adanya ketimpangan dalam pembangunan ekonomi (economic performance) dan perubahan demografi. Proses globalisasi dan perkembangan teknologi informasi di seluruh dunia memungkinkan terjadinya mobilitas penduduk antarnegara dalam kapasitas dan intensitas yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan sebelumnya. Sejarah mobilitas pekerja migran Indonesia (PMI) menunjukkan bahwa Indonesia dikenal sebagai pengirim tenaga kerja setengah terampil (semi-skilled) dan tidak terampil (un-skilled) untuk bekerja di sektor pertanian (perkebunan), industri manufaktur (yang pa...
