Abstract:The study uses Rawls’s theory of distributive justice to frame an account of corporate citizenship in an Islamic society. The paper is divided into two sections. The first section offers a normative account of Islam as it is taught in Islamic universities in Indonesia. The second section is an ethnographic study of Bank Muamalat, an Islamic Bank in Indonesia. The findings indicate that there is a close correspondence btw. the normative account found in mainstream neo-modern teaching in Indonesia and the practice as it is found in the case study. This suggests an elective affinity btw. neo-modern Islam found in Indonesia and ethical guidelines and practice in Islamic banking in Indonesia.
