Description

Centuries before Adam Smith, Ibn Khaldun was writing about ideas that would shape modern economics. Dr Amir Lebdioui, Associate Professor of the Political Economy of Development and Director of the Technology and Industrialisation for Development Centre, explores the enduring influence of the 14th-century scholar and why the origins of economic ideas still matter today. 🎬 | @tideoxford
