Islamic economic system: from principles to microeconomics and macroeconomics fields (21)

The authors write:
Before, we get the answer, let we look the current thinking about those fields.
Currently, the primary textbook could easily make a distinction between:
ü microeconomics ("small" economics);
ü and macroeconomics ("big" economics).
Microeconomics - which examines the economic behavior of agents (including individuals and firms).
Macroeconomics - addressing issues of:
-      unemployment;
-      inflation;
-      monetary and fiscal policy and etc.
for an entire economy.
However, the free encyclopedia (or in short Wikipedia) defines both microeconomics and macroeconomics as follow:
Microeconomics looks at interactions through individual markets, given scarcity and government regulation.
