يمتد الجدل حول طبيعة النظام السياسي في الإسلام ومقوماته إلى أكثر من قرن، إلا أنه أصبح في السنوات الأخيرة من أشد القضايا إلحاحاً وأهمية. فأنظمة الحكم العربية والإسلامية أخذت تشهد منذ العشرينيات من القرن العشرين وفي عدد كبير من الدول تغييرات مست أساليبها في إدارة الحياة العامة وجوانب من مؤسسات الدولة وتشريعاتها الأساسية. ولم تكن التغييرات نابعة من قنا […].
Reformism 258
الأزمة، النص وجدل الحضارات
مصير حداثة الوطن العربي بين تجميعيّة وعلمانيّة؟ كل ما يقوله هشام جعيّط يثير الجدل في صفوف المثقّفين ويثير أحيانا أخري زعزعة لدي الكثير، فمن الشخصية العربيّة الإسلامية والمصير العربي المشترك إلي أزمة الثقافة الإسلامية امتدّ فكر هذا الرجل بين المراجعة والتأصيل وما زال يتواصل. لذلك رأينا، علي الرغم من عسر المهمّة، أن لايمرّ هذا الفكر دون مجادلته في أعم […].
La Mondialisation, l’événement du siècle.
L’être humain assure ses potentialités pour transformer sa réalité au niveau de la pensée, l’identité, l’action et la pratique et, à ce titre, se transforme de quoi il est en forgeant d’autres mondes, multiples dans leurs forces et leurs rapports, différents dans leurs langues et leurs symboles et actifs par leurs outillages et leurs instruments médiateur […].
Democratic culture and extremist Islam
Are Islam and democracy incompatible? The evolution of a radical Turkish Islamic group in Germany suggests that the pursuit of ‘fundamentalist’ goals can itself create the space for a rational appraisal of tradition. By seeking truth in origin and scripture rather than history, successive generations of Islamists may be drawn – even despite themselves – t […].
Expectations from the Muslim Woman
Prior to beginning my lecture, I would like to propose some practical suggestions. Speaking about women’s rights, women’s personality and Islam’s view of women differs a great deal from the realization of the actual value which Islam gives to human beings, and to women, in particular. Most often we are satisfied by pointing out that Islam gives great value […].
Human and Islam
Ladies and Gentlemen: Tonight, as long as time permits, I would like to investigate the following questions: I. Does Islam recognize man as a helpless creature whose ultimate goal and ideal is to stand powerless in front of God? II. Does Islam recognize humanness as a nobility? III.

Shariati was born in Mazinan, […].
A Clash of Cultures or a Debate on Europe’s Values?
The murder of Theo van Gogh in the Netherlands (2 November 2004) represents a recent example of how westernized Muslims and converts have been implicated in acts associated with Islamic radicalism in Europe. Despite widespread interpretations that Islamic radicalization represents the failure of the multiculturalists approach vis-à-vis Muslim immigrants, r […].
The Adab of Dissent and Dialogue
Professor Khalid Masud is perhaps one of the most universally-acclaimed Islamic scholars of Pakistan. Himself a product of both traditional madrasa and modern university education, he has researched and written extensively about the development of Islamic law and Muslim political-legal thought. As the former Academic Director of the International Institute […].
Islam, Society, Modernity
During the huge public discourse, especially in the aftermath of 11 September 2001, Muslim mind-set toward modernity frequently came into question. A whole theology bas came into being on the question whether Islam and modernity are compatible to each other. Neither the question nor the arguments are new. Similar debates arose in the nineteenth century whe […].
