Political Economy of Islam: Islamicity Indices as Benchmark

Askari, Hossein; Mohammadkhan, Hossein; Mydin, Liza

This book explores how the recent development of Muslim countries as a group has fallen far short of non-Muslim countries, which, some have concluded, may be a result of Islamic teachings. The authors examine Muslim countries over time, viewing their progression on the Islamicity scale. They assess why some countries have done better than others, and to derive useful policy recommendations to improve political, social, human, governance and economic performance.
