In his Prolegomena (Muqaddimah), Ibn Khaldun (A.D.1332-1406) laid down the foundations of different fields of knowledge, in particular the science of civilization (al-'umran). His significant contributions to ecomonics, however, should place him in the history of economic thought as a major forerunner. Through his great sense and knowledge of history, together with his microscopic observations of men, times, and place, Ibn Khaldun used an insightful empirical investigation to analyze and produce original economic thought. He left a wealth of contributions for the first time in history in the field of economics. He clearly demontrated breadth and depth in his coverage of value and its relationship to labor; his analysis of his theory of capital accumulation and its relationship to the rise and fall of dynasties; his perceptions of the dynamics of demand, supply, prices, and profits; his treatment of the subjects of money and the role of governmrnts; his remarkable theory of taxation,and other economic sbjects. This paper attempts to give Ibn Khaldun his forgotten and long overdue credit and to place him properly within the history of economic thought. He was preceded by a variety of economic but elemental ideas to which he gave substance and depth. Centuries later these same ideas were developed by the Mercantilists, the commercial capitalists of the seventeenth century-Sir William Petty (A.D.1623-1681), Adam Smith (A.D.1723-1790), David Ricardo (A.D.1772-1823), Thomas R.Malthus (A.D.1766-1832), Karl Marx (A.D.1818-1883), and John Maynard Keynes (A.D.1883-1946), to name only a few-and finally by contemporary economic theorists.
