Society, Law and Economy: Contextualizing Ibn Khaldun's Thought
Abstract
Economy and the law are the two inseparable things. There is always a relationship between the two. This writing explores the role of Ibn Khaldun (1332-1406 AD) in paving the way for creating foundations of socio-economic study. According to him, the role of law in economic activity can be seen from two sides, in two equal interests, namely: a. Law is seen from the dimensions of economic activity; and b. Law is seen from the dimension of the state over its authority. Departing from the economic goals, in fact to obtain the maximum profit, the law is merely seen as a useful external factor and can be utilized to secure the economic activities and objectives to be achieved. The essence of Ibn Khaldun’s thought is still relevant to the modern time. Departing from his ideas and comparing them to the western and modern ones, one may conclude that Ibn Khaldun’s philosophical analyses could be contextualized.
Abstrak:
Ekonomi dan hukum adalah dua hal yang tidak dapat dipisahkan. Selalu ada hubungan antara keduanya. Tulisan ini membahas peran Ibnu Khaldun (1332-1406 M) dalam membuka jalan bagi terbentuknya fondasi studi sosiologis. Menurutnya, peran hukum dalam kegiatan ekonomi secara umum dapat dilihat dari dua sisi, dalam dua hal yang sama, yaitu: a. visi undang-undang dilihat dari dimensi kegiatan ekonomi; dan b. hukum dilihat dari dimensi negara atas kekuasaannya. Berangkat dari tujuan ekonomi, bahkan untuk mendapatkan keuntungan yang maksimal, hukum hanya dipandang sebagai faktor eksternal yang berguna dan dapat dimanfaatkan untuk terjaminnya kegiatan ekonomi dan tujuan yang akan dicapai. Penelitian ini membuktikan bahwa esensi pemikiran Ibnu Khaldun masih relevan dengan masa modern. Berangkat dari ide-idenya dan membandingkannya dengan analisis arus pemikiran Barat, dapat disimpulkan bahwa filosofis Ibnu Khaldun sangat mungkin diperbarui kembali serta dikontekstualisasikan.
