Summary
This book examines social policy in Muslim countries across the world and the status and role of Islamic teachings in such policies. It fills a gap in the literature by reviewing and comparing the experience of several Muslim countries from across the world. The existing social policy literature lacks a comprehensive appraisal of the social policy scene in Muslim societies, especially from a comparative perspective. This book will be of interest to a wide audience in the academic and policy forums related to and interested in Muslim societies and communities. Ali Akbar Tajmazinani is Associate Professor (Social Policy) and Dean of Social Science Faculty at Allameh Tabataba'i University, Iran, and former Director General of Youth Research Office and Head of International Affairs Department at the National Youth Organization of Iran.
