Islam Between Culture and Politics

Více o knize

Bassam Tibi presents a transformative approach to address the challenges Islam faces in a globalized context. He advocates for the depoliticization of the faith and calls for reforms that incorporate secular democracy, pluralism, civil society, and individual rights. Tibi warns that failing to embrace these changes may lead to the rise of fundamentalism. His central thesis explores the tension within Islam between the need for cultural innovation and the reactionary politicization of its symbols for secular purposes.
