The Position of Anthropology in Organization and Management in the View of the West and Islam

There are as many views about man as there are schools of thought in the world, and this makes the different human sciences as many as different views. The present paper expounds man’s various aspects in the view of western and Muslim thinkers, focusing on creation, aim of life, nature, truth, determinism and freedom, value orientation.This paper aims at explaining the effectiveness of anthropology on social sciences, and on organization and management in particular. The research findings show that the organization or political system organized and managed according to the Qur’anic view of man is very distinct from organization or political system organized and managed according to the western thinker's views about man. Given this, anthropology which is considered as one of the foundations of social sciences particularly management, is of great importance.
