The idea of political liberalism -- Political liberalism and Islam -- Political liberalism in Muslim societies -- Tolerating religion -- Religion and the impartiality of the state
Summary
This book examines Rawls's theory of political liberalism in the context of€Muslim societies, where religion wields a significant social and political influence. Contrasting a sociological analysis with a theoretical approach, the author explores the political questions brought up by religious individuals, organizations, and minorities, and examines fundamental notions such as neutrality of state, public/private distinction, and individual autonomy
