The current dynamics of world economy show remarkable changes in
the socio-economics of credit provision and entrepreneurship. If
the emergence of the sharing economy is fostering innovative models
of collaborative agency, networking and venture business, economic
actors are also looking for a more sustainable development, able to
foster profitability as well as community welfare. This book
investigates Islamic social finance as a paramount example of this
economy under change, where the balance between economic efficiency
and social impact is contributing to the transformation of the
market from an exchange- to a community-oriented institution. The
collected essays analyse the social dimension of entrepreneurship
from an Islamic perspective, highlighting the extent to which the
rationales of "sharing," distribution and cooperation, affect the
conceptualization of the market in Islam as a place of "shared
prosperity." Moving from the conceptual "roots" of this paradigm to
its operative "branches," the contributing authors also connect the
most recent trends in the financial market to Shari'ah-based
strategies for community welfare, hence exploring the applications
of Islamic social finance from the sharing economy, FinTech and
crowdfunding to microcredit, waqf, zakat, sukuk and green
investments. An illuminating reference for researchers,
practitioners and policy-makers dealing with the challenges of a
global market where not only is diversity being perceived as a
value to be fostered, but also as an important opportunity for a
more inclusive economy for everybody.
