This chapter deals with Mehdi Haeri Yazdi’s political theory, starting with an overview of Rawls’s ideas of reasonableness and rationality in Political Liberalism. Based on this initial step, the second part considers what may be called Haeri’s argument about the priority of Islamic philosophy over Islamic jurisprudence and his thesis of government...
This chapter is devoted to Allame Mohammad Hossein Tabatatabai’s (hereafter referred to as M.H.Tabatabai) theory of justice. M.H.Tabatabai’s main contribution to the field of practical philosophy is his theory of artificial conceptions (edrakat-e etebari). Commentators have developed a variety of interpretations about the meaning and implications o...
This chapter focuses on constitutional politics, where I argue that the main challenge for the Iranian political system from the perspective of political liberalism is the privileged political status given to Shia jurists (fuqaha) in what Rawls calls “the public political forum”. After an overview of Rawls’s main arguments for basic liberties and a...
This chapter includes a moderate reading of political liberalism applicable to post-Islamist, Muslim-majority societies. Contrary to the strong reading of John Rawls, which considers his political liberalism as limited in its scope to those societies that already have a strong liberal tradition, I argue that the Rawlsian project does have many thin...
This chapter deals with Mostafa Malekian’s social and political thought. After an overview of Malekian’s spirituality thesis and his view on the relationship between reason and religion, I discuss his outlook on the social ethos of spiritual citizens in which he lists the virtues that, following from his rationality and spirituality thesis, citizen...
This chapter is mainly devoted to Mohammad Mojtehed Shabestari’s political theology. I argue that the various strategies in Shabestari’s reformist project can be labeled as an exemplary conjecture, albeit not exactly in the sense proposed by March. Shabestari’s first strategy is showing that Islamic faith is impossible unless believers are guarante...
In this chapter I explore the potentials of the Rawlsian idea of conjecture for presenting a native theory of political liberalism for post-Islamist Muslim-majority societies. Although this Rawlsian idea can play a key role in uniting political liberalism and post-Islamism into one coherent project, it has been almost completely neglected in the ex...
This article reviews Hamid Dabashi’s “Can Non-Europeans Think?” (2015). It attempts to show that while
Dabashi offers a powerful analysis of Iranian and Middle Eastern politics, his arguments turn to be unpersuasive when
he aims to radically criticize European philosophy and enlightenment thought.
This book deals with the concept of post-Islamism from a mainly philosophical perspective, using political liberalism as elaborated by John Rawls as the key interpretive tool. What distinguishes this book from most scholarship in Iranian studies is that it primarily deals with the projects of Iranian intellectuals from a normative perspective as th...
This article tries to develop a moderate reading of political liberalism applicable to post-Islamist, Muslim-majority societies. Contrary to the strong reading, which considers political liberalism as limited in its scope to those societies that already have a strong liberal tradition, I argue that Rawls’ project does have something to offer to rea...
Rawls formulates liberalism according to two conceptions of reasonable and rational, which, tied to two particular notions of society and person, define the basis of liberalism in Rawlsian thought. This article argues that Mehdi Haeri Yazdi's important work, Hekmat va Hokumaat, should be considered as a work of liberal theory, and shows how it endo...

... However, the party cannot be overlooked from a robust Islamic narrative. For example, their founders claim that they were a form of post-Islamic struggle (Partai Gelora, 2020) and the idea of limiting religion's political role in realizing a state order tends to lead to secularization without being anti-Islam (Badamchi, 2015). With these ideological variations, the Islamic-based parties in this article are determined not only on party's ideology but also on its Islamic base, activists or politicians, and political narratives. ...
