Organisasi dibutuhkan manusia, tidak sekedar guna pemenuhan kebutuhan dasar, namun juga guna pemenuhan kebutuhan sosial, hingga kebutuhan akan eksistensialitas. Tidak sedikit orang rela mengeluarkan sebagian dari kepemilikan ekonominya untuk membangun dan memperkuat organisasi. Sebagian lainyya, meninggalkan saudara, keluarga dan kemewahan dunianya demi organisasi. Demikian seterusnya, hingga disebutkan manusia dilabelkan sebagai mahluk organisasi yang berasal dari naluri hidup berkelompok. Kebutuhan akan organisasi dipredeksi akan terus meningkat seiring perubahan sosial yang menggiring ke arah spesialisasi. Ketika solidaritas sosial tidak lagi didasarkan pada faktor geografis, seperti tempat tinggal, namun digantikan oleh profesi dan ketergantungan akan spesialisasi, maka urgensi organisasi menjadi semakin dibutuhkan kehadirannya. Dalam usaha menjawab kebutuhan-kebutuhan tersebut, organisasi memerlukan tata kelola atau manajemen yang semakin lebih modern.
Pada dasarnya ekonomi islam di bangun untuk tujuan suci di tuntun oleh ajaran islam dan dicapai dengan cara-cara yang di tuntunkan pula oleh ajaran islam. Oleh karena itu, ke semua hal tersebut saling terkait dan terstruktur secara hierarkis, dalam arti bahwa spirit ekonomi islam tercermin dari tujuannya, dan di topang oleh pilarnya.

Hanya dengan moral islam inilah bangunan ekonomi islam dapat tegak. Moralitas islam berdiri di atas suatu postulat keimanan dan postulat ibadah. Esensi dan moral islam adalah tauhid. Implikasi dari tauhid, bahwa ekonomi islam memiliki sifat transendental (bukan sekuler), di mana peranan Allah dalam seluruh aspek ekonomi menjadi mutlak. Ketika menjalankan ekonomi Islam seseorang haruslah berjalan sesuai dengan rambu-rambu yang telah ditetapkan oleh syariat, melalui syariatnya.

This open access book applies for the first time emerging concepts of socioeconomics to analyse an economic sector, namely agriculture. It considers the rational choices of all actors in the system (just as agricultural economists do) and their cultural preferences and constraints (just as rural sociologists do). Socioeconomic concepts are subsequently used to structure agricultural issues with regard to the three governance mechanisms (hierarchy, markets, and cooperation), and different agricultural systems are presented and compared. The book will be of interest to social scientists with various backgrounds, and seeks to break down the barriers of single-disciplinary thinking.
