Islam, modernity, and the human sciences
Zaidi, Ali Hassan,1970-

Islam, modernity, and the human sciences[electronic resource] /Ali Hassan Zaidi. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2011. - 1 online resource.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [175]-199) and index.

Part I: Social Theory and Dialogical Understanding -- Critique and Dialogical Understanding -- Part II: Muslim Debates on Social Knowledge -- Muslim Reconstructions of Knowledge: the Case of Nasr and al-Faruqi -- The Putative Modernity of Ibn Khaldun -- Part III: Western Debates on Social Knowledge -- Dilthey and the Problem of Immanence -- Weber: from Nihilism to an Organic Metaphysics.

This book discloses a largely unnoticed dialogue between Muslim and Western social thought on the search for meaning and transcendence in the human sciences. The disclosure is accomplished by a comparative reading of contemporary Muslim debates on secular knowledge on the one hand, and of a foundational Western debate on the demise of metaphysics in the human sciences on the other hand. The comparative reading is grounded in a dialogical hermeneutic approach; that is, a hermeneutic approach to texts and cultural traditions that draws upon the work of Hans Georg Gadamer and also upon the insights of inter-religious dialogue.
