- W570423562 abstract "Nothing troubled the people of the Islamic world at the beginning of the twenty-firstcentury as much as the challenge of modernity did. It had occupied a central place in thecultural and sociopolitical agendas of intellectual and social movements, and state actorsin the Islamic world and Iran since the 19th century. This study is a theoretical analysisof Iranian Muslim intellectuals’ encounter with Islam and modernity. The two mainspheres of modernity which are examined are: i) the political arena and the governmentstructure, and ii) science and technology. The goal of this dissertation is to examine andinvestigate the controversial ideas of five Iranian Muslim intellectuals, namely: AliShariati, Abdolkarim Soroush, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Murteza Mutahhari, and MehdiGolshani. Their ideas were then compared in order to identify the similarities anddissimilarities in their ideas on Islam and modernity. It is hoped that through this study,a contribution can be made to the current debate on Islam, science and politics, as wellas creating an alternative Islamic perspective with regards to science, technology and asystematic government. This study is part of an accumulated effort towards therejuvenation of the Islamic world in the modern era, including the field of science andtechnology. The religious thinkers have taken either of the following two majorpositions in viewing modernisation: (a) In support of selective modernisation, (b) Inopposition to selective modernisation. The supporters of selective modernization aremostly concerned about the development and the survival of the developing countriesand civilizations and the opponents have traditional Islamic culture in mind. We cantherefore take the middle line and consider a middle point in this argument; meaning tosuggest that instant development and survival is helpful and effective, but genuine,sustainable development requires patience and adherence to Islamic principles.Therefore the adherence of Islamic nations to the notions of modernity is just a result ofthe concern for survival, rather than true human development. In its true sense a move toward a real Islamic ruling and Islamic democracy is in fact the basis for an optimalpath to development. Based on this reality, and considering that it is necessary tosurvive in this world, we have to accept modernisation to the extent which is necessary.On the other hand and based on the idea of selective modernisation, we have to aim atreviving the real Islamic nation when working toward development." @default.
