The beginning of economics as a modern discipline corresponds to the
period of the industrial revolution in the late 18th century. This
Western originated discipline or the capitalist economic ideology has since
impacted the world and become the global system in the 20th century.
On the other hand, reactions against modern economic thought have emerged both
within the capitalist paradigm and from outsiders as a holistic rejection to it.
It is observed that today, the ideas put forward on the criticism of modern
economic discipline and the written works are at the center of attention. In
this context, the term “Islamic Economics” has begun to be put forward in a
wide range as an alternative system with its scientific foundations.
In this paper, as a literature review of the Islamic economics and
finance studies in Turkey, the causes and the process of emergence of Islamic
economics, the approaches towards it, and conceptual discussions of Islamic
economics were discussed. In addition, people, foundations, associations, and
universities in Turkey studying about Islamic economics and finance, as well as
works, seminars, and conferences in this field were examined.
This article is intended to put forward the course of works in Turkey
towards Islamic economics and finance, which has increasing importance from the
mid-twentieth century to the present day. In this context, the studies in the
literature were examined, the source screening method was used, the inventory
of the studies was established, and an evaluation is made. As a result of the
study, it has been revealed that Islamic economics is open to development,
development potential is high, and the interest in the subject is in an increasing
trend.
