Le terme "développement durable" est devenu la référence obligée des politiques publiques et privées, le nouveau nuit d'ordre de la coopération internationale. Il s'est imposé face à l'inquiétude des pays riches devant l'émergence de certains Suds et coïncide avec la montée en puissance des ONG. Rendant obsolète le concept de développement, le développement durable est un produit de la dernière mondialisation, le symbole de l'avènement d'une conscience mondiale. Mais cette synthèse théoriquement parfaite entre les préoccupations économiques, sociales et environnementales est-elle une réalité ? ou bien un étendard que chacun s'approprie en fonction de ses intérêts et de ses objectifs, une sanctification de la planète au détriment de l'humanité, et particulièrement des pauvres ?

Dans le contexte actuel de crise économique et sociale, parler de la Nature peut passer pour de l'inconscience ou de la provocation. Pourtant, l'édifice humain tout entier repose sur la Nature, dont la biodiversité est l'un des visages. Et la Vie sur notre planète nous offre l'exemple même d'un développement durable dont nos entreprises pourraient bien s'inspirer. Car ce n'est qu'en prenant en compte l'ensemble de la biosphère que nous pourrons espérer comprendre comment, devant les dangers que court l'humanité de son propre fait, il lui est possible de redresser la barre. Dans cette perspective, il est nécessaire que l'écologie et l'économie s'allient pour que la première devienne plus réaliste et la seconde plus humaine. A cette fin, ce livre associe les regards et les compétences du naturaliste et de l'anthropologue.

This book examines a range of current issues in Islamic development management. The first part of the book explores practical issues in governance and the application of Islamic governance in new areas such as quality management systems and the tourism industry, while the second delves into questions of sustainability. The book proposes a new Islamic sustainability and offers new perspectives on CSR in connection with waqf (Islamic endowments) and microfinance. The third part of the book addresses Islamic values and how they are applied in entrepreneurship, inheritance, consumer behavior and marketing. The fourth part examines the issues of waqf and takaful (a form of insurance in line with the Islamic laws), while the fifth discusses the fiqh (the study of Islamic legal codes) and legal framework from the perspectives of entrepreneurship, higher education, reporting and inheritance (wills). The final chapter is dedicated to the application of Islamic principles in various other issues. Written in an accessible style, the book will appeal to newcomers to the field, as well as researchers and academics with an interest in Islamic development management.
