New Explorations Into the Making of Ibn Khaldun's Umran Mind

The second half of the 20th century has witnessed, in the Arab Muslim world as well as in the West, more intellectual writings, debates, congresses, etc, about Ibn Khaldun's social thought than ever before since Ibn Khaldun wrote his Muqaddimah in the 14th century. The chapters of this book are intended to make their own contribution to the renewal of Ibn Khaldun's social science thought. Each one of the chapters explores something new about the original thought of the creative personality of the author of Muqaddimah.
