LESSON ON ECONOMIC SYSTEMS
LESSON ON ECONOMIC SYSTEMS ANDERSONVILLE PRISON AN ECONOMIC MICROCOSM. INTRODUCTION. All society must develop an economic system to answer the basic economic questions.
http://ecedweb.unomaha.edu/ecedweek/lesson2.htm

Extractions: ANDERSONVILLE PRISON: AN ECONOMIC MICROCOSM INTRODUCTION All society must develop an economic system to answer the basic economic questions. While we usually identify economic systems with a country (the United States has a market oriented system; the former Soviet Union had a command system), it is also possible to identify an economic system at a micro level. In this lesson students examine how a group of civil war prisoners developed an economic system within their camp, a system designed to allocate scarce resources. OBJECTIVES Students will be able to: Identify the condition of scarcity at Andersonville Prison Develop solutions to the problems of scarcity at Andersonville Prison Evaluate the effectiveness of economic systems in finding solutions to problems of scarcity LESSON DESCRIPTION The lesson gives students an opportunity to recognize the conditions faced by the prisoners of war at Andersonville during the Civil War. Students will join others to develop a method for providing the economic wants of the Andersonville prisoners through either a market or command economy. The activity helps the students to recognize how different economic systems can solve the same problems differently. TIME REQUIRED Two class periods

HazaRiba.com : What Is Riba?
Provides an explanation of the concept of Riba (usury or interest) and how Islam is still upholding the righteous prohibition of Riba. Also discusses the implications for Islamic banking.
http://www.hazariba.com/

Extractions: Home Subjects Issues Information ... myBlog Riba interest usury ) is primarily an economic issue in view of the fact that all religions and mythologies have prohibited, restricted, discouraged, disliked, or degraded Riba in one way or the other since the inception of human interaction. All three major revealed ( Ilhami ) religions i.e., Islam, Christianity, and Judaism have strongly condemned and prohibited Riba in its original versions. Later, the clerics of Jews and Christian Church abandoned the prohibition of Riba ( interest usury ) that led the mankind into the economic anarchy of the present era. Islam - the most modern revealed religion is still upholding the righteous prohibition of Riba although not in practice in any of the Islamic country at governmental level but there is immense enthusiasm for Riba-Free financial system in Muslims. The western economists have discussed the issue at large in the twentieth century and many of them are also of the view that the religious prohibition should be brought back into the conscious of the people. As long as Riba prohibition was enforced with religious zeal, people were prosperous and the wealth distribution was not abnormal as it is today, and obviously there was not much debate on the subject but since the Riba was made legal by Judo-Christian amendments in the divine law - its destructive fallouts earthed at large. The debate started on Riba for its literal interpretation to economic implications.

http://www.dynamist.com/articles-speeches/nyt/kuran.html

Extractions: The New York Times , August 12, 2004 THE 9/11 Commission report pointedly criticizes the idea of a generic threat from terrorism. ''The catastrophic threat at this moment in history is more specific,'' the commission writes. ''It is the threat posed by Islamist terrorism.'' Islamists, who favor political rule based on Islamic principles, see liberal Western societies, particularly the United States, as godless and barbarous. They argue that the Muslim world has fallen behind the West economically and militarily because Muslims have strayed from the pure religious practice of Muhammad's time. As the commission report suggests, Americans know this theocratic ideology primarily as a spur to terrorism, not as a set of ideas and policies worthy of critical examination. But Islamists do offer economic and social prescriptions that can be subjected to the same analytical and empirical scrutiny as any other policies. That scrutiny is particularly important for Muslim countries where Islamists play a significant role in politics. In a new book

Corporate Governance In Islamic Banks, By Nasser M Suleiman
An article by Nasser Suleiman examines governance structures in the context of Islamic banking.
http://www.al-bab.com/arab/econ/nsbanks.htm

Extractions: Women Corporate governance in Islamic banks The Muslim banking world faces the challenge of expanding internationally while remaining true to Islamic principles By Nasser M. Suleiman Corporate governance in banking has been analysed almost exclusively in the context of conventional banking markets. For example, there has recently been some discussion of the role 'market discipline' exerted by bank shareholders and depositors in constraining the risk taking behaviour of bank management. At the same time, there is growing interest in, and analysis of, banks as stockholders in companies themselves playing a central role in corporate governance, especially in Germany and other countries with universal banking structures of the traditional type. By contrast, little is written on governance structures in Islamic banking, despite the rapid growth of Islamic banks since the mid 1970s and their increasing presence on world financial markets. There are now over 180 financial institutions world-wide which adhere to Islamic banking and financing principles. These banks operate in 45 countries encompassing most of the Muslim world, along with Europe, North America and various offshore locations. Islamic financing increasingly is a market segment of interest of Western banks, and the latest addition to the list of Islamic banks in October 1996 in the Citi Islamic Investment Bank, Bahrain a wholly owned subsidiary of Citicorp.
Economic Systems
Free resources for high school teachers in US history and economics, emphasizing the role of land and natural resources.
http://www.landandfreedom.org/econ/econ4.htm

Extractions: Print-friendly version The basic processes of economic behavior are universal to human society. In every kind of human community, people do things like produce wealth, trade, use money and cooperate to produce public works or complex goods. Markets emerge wherever people gather, and basic principles such as supply and demand comparative advantage or marginal utility are the same the world over. But if all that is true, then why do we see such a wide variety in economic systems in the world? Left to themselves, people will evolve ways to solve the problems of production and distribution of goods. One problem, however, is that people are not often left to themselves! Groups in society that have seized or inherited an advantage will try to institutionalize their advantage, creating some form of nobility or privileged class. Seeking to extend their power and wealth, they will try to control people and resources in other places, reserving the benefits of trade to themselves. When the few have inherited wealth and privilege, the many, who have nothing but their labor, become impoverished. And then, as technological improvements increase the power to produce wealth, the gulf between rich and poor widens still further. As societies become more complex and interconnected, they are increasingly prone to periods of booms and busts. When these problems become severe enough, societies try to solve them as best they can, by implementing some form of economic system. An economy that is plagued with a chronic problem of poverty, which flares up into recurring periods of industrial depression, seems to be staring right into the face of the "problem of scarcity" the question of how to satisfy unlimited human desires with limited resources. In the attempt to come up with a sensible plan for solving these problems, economic systems try to answer three basic questions: What goods should the community produce? How should these goods be produced? For whom should these goods be produced?
