Distributive justice and need fulfilment in an Islamic economy

The book is a collection of works that were presented at the Second International Conference on Islamic Economics. The conference took place in Islamabad in 1983. Iqbal contributes the introduction to the papers' compilation. The authors of the pieces therein deal with issues related to fair distribution in Islam. One paper, for example, deals with equity and equality, whereas two others address agricultural land issues. One paper discusses Riba while another is concerned with standards of living. Discussion sessions are also presented. Some attention is given to seeing where Islamic distribution stands relative to Capitalist and Socialist outlooks.
