Lectures on IE

22 Oct 2018 -- trying to organize lectures on new website: Islamic Economics Course

The latest version of these lectures is now a draft of 15 Lectures for IIIE Faculty, to be delivered in February-June 2011. I plan to create a book from this version soon.

15 LECTURES on ISLAMIC ECONOMICS: [link] Links for other courses: Statistics, Econometrics, Micro, Macro, Experimental

Here are drafts of Lectures on Islamic Economics. These are meant to be put together into a new textbook on the subject. These are revised and updated from previous version of course. Previous version has many more lectures, and also audio recording of the lectures in CAMTASIA format, which requires special software to play. This software, and previous versions of lectures, text and audio format, are available from: [link] currently not available; I will try to put these audio files back on so they can be downloaded.

ALSO, I now have a YOU-TUBE Channel: AZ Islamic Economics: relevant videos on my MAIN Channel are linked here: Conference Talks
