Summary
Chapter 5 introduces a new hermeneutical approach to the study of economic thought in Islamic tradition as a multifaceted field. This chapter is concerned with the plural and polyvalent methodology of studying the phenomenon of economic thought in Islamic tradition and Sharīʿa through a multitude of approaches in what I call the plural epistemology of Islam’s moral economy, which advocates for a multifaceted hermeneutical reading of the subject.
