KONSEP INFLASI : PERBANDINGAN PEMIKIRAN IBNU KHALDUN DAN AL MAQRIZI SERTA IMPLIKASINYA DI INDONESIA
Abstract
Inflation is a problem in the economic system that occurs repeatedly from the beginning of the development of human civilization. Since the creation of money as an easy mode of exchange, inflation has become a phenomenon that has never escaped. On the other hand, inflation figures are also used as macroeconomic analysis of a country/region such as: economic growth, external balance and income equality. High inflationary conditions if not taken seriously and appropriately will lead to economic depression. But in the Islamic world there are scholars, namely Ibn Khaldun and Al-Maqrizi. These two Muslim thinkers provide an overview of the phenomenon of inflation since the 14th century AD. This research seeks to find a wedge of Ibn Khaldun and Al-Maqrizi's thoughts on the causes of inflation and offer solutions to the phenomenon of inflation that occurs.
