Sustainability, growth and finance from Islamic perspective

Hasan, Zubair (2020): Sustainability, growth and finance from Islamic perspective.

Abstract

Sustainability in general refers to maintaining the level of a phenomenon in some specified sense over foreseeable future. The term got currency in the economic literature after the 1987 Commission on Environment and Development linked it to growth. This paper examines this linkage with finance added from sustainability angle with reference to human well-being in a world torn between war and peace. An Islamic perspective, where relevant, is added to the discussion.
