Proposes a framework of Muslim democracy that reconciles public claims made by Muslims with the normative and practical demands of democratic regimes.
Ravza Altuntas-Çakir examines the ideals, institutions and processes that shape the development of a concrete Muslim-based democratic system – a form of democracy that recognises the centrality of religion in Muslim societies. Questioning the customary characterisations of Islam’s compatibility with democracy, the book adopts a comparative political theory approach that initiates a dialogue between Muslim and Western political thought. It systematically studies debates concerning Muslim political thought, multiculturalism, secularism, the public sphere and constitutionalism, which enables an exploration of Muslim democracy through a political theory approach, rather than a theological one.
