Az Democracy ta Mardom Salari-e Dini Sadegh Zibakalam

Açıklama

The book "From Democracy to Religious Populism" by Sadegh Zibakalam examines the political ideas of the late Dr. Ali Shariati. It investigates whether, based on his beliefs rooted in Islamic principles and Shia Islam, a form of government akin to a "democratic angel" could be achieved or not. The book's answer is negative. It argues that Shariati's political thought, despite its significance, does not lead to democracy. Since democracy is fundamentally a philosophical-political concept, the book provides an extensive introduction examining the characteristics of democracy-based governance. It concludes that Shariati's political ideas, stemming from religious and Islamic principles, undermine the attributes of a democratic government.
