Beschreibungen

<p>This book offers a normative reconceptualization of a modern Islamic governed state. First, Joseph Kaminski surveys the historical context of the trajectory of Islamic thought, and offers a unique discursive framework for reconceptualizing an Islamic governed state that rejects secular Enlightenment liberalism and instead is heavily grounded in Ancient Greek ideals of politics and political leadership.&nbsp; Despite heavily borrowing from Greek thought, the model offered remains firmly rooted in a Shari’ah-based, discursive ontological framework.&nbsp; The volume explores topics of bureaucracy, law, democracy, women in politics, and economic justice. Further, this volume presents case studies from Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, and Malaysia, and utilizes the presented theoretical framework as a lens for analysis.&nbsp;</p>

“Joseph Kaminski’s broad background in philosophy and political science allows him to approach his subject with genuine wisdom and a sense of command. Few readers, I predict, will complete this book without having gained significant new insights into the currently vital issues that are at its core.” (William L. McBride, Purdue University, USA) <p>“An innovative and insightful study. Kaminski seeks to rethink ‘Islamic governance’ in terms of a public ‘discourse’ attentive to Islamic history, theology and jurisprudence and to ancient Greek teachings of public virtue. Regarding Islamic democracy, the text offers case studies of Turkey, Egypt, Tunisia, and Malaysia - thus deftly illustrating the potential of comparative political theorizing.” (Fred Dallmayr, University of Notre Dame, USA, and author of The Promise of Democracy (2010) and Freedom and Solidarity (2015))</p>
