Muslims, Islams and Occidental Anxieties

Viac o knihe

The book explores the complexities of Muslim and Western civilizations, challenging common prejudices about their compatibility. It argues against the simplistic view of Islam as either entirely good or bad, advocating for a pluralistic understanding inspired by Sir Isaiah Berlin. By identifying distinct Muslim ethical and religious values, it suggests that these alternative "goods" can enrich Western moral perspectives and even revitalize certain Western religious practices, highlighting the potential for constructive dialogue and mutual enrichment.
