This book is a study of religious principles of good governance in our contemporary societies. Historically, religion has provided guidance for organizing societies. In modern times, however, religious ideas have been marginalized in social science literature. Contributors to this work explore what values and practices the Qur'an can contribute to governing our economic, political, and social life today.

Abdullah al-Ahsan is professor at the Department of History and Civilization, International Islamic University Malaysia. Stephen B. Young is Global Executive Director of Caux Round Table, USA
