To launch our new Clarity Talks series of podcasts, we examine the origins and development of Islamic finance. In this first episode, Diligencia's Rose Johnson speaks with Dr Fitzroy Morrissey, author of the recently published A Short History of Islamic Thought.
Listen to their conversation as they discuss:
- The history of Shariah principles and traditions
- The key characteristics of Islamic finance
- Ethical and pragmatic considerations
- The prevalence of Islamic finance and its compatibility with western style capitalism
