قراءة نقدية في الأسس الإيديولوجية للفردانية و راهنيتها في المجتمعات العربية

Abstract EN

Individualism is a narrative in human history to understand the experiences of nations and upon which attitudes and judgments are built.

This article presents the ideological structure, theories and concepts on which individualism was founded in the Euro-Christian context.

From religion to economics, between philosophy and political thought, individualism has taken on the character of inclusiveness despite early criticism of its use in the economy and society.

But its effects on non-European societies are as profound and widespread, such as in Arab societies, which are experiencing social and political repercussions in the context of the ‘Arab Spring’, prompting a resurgence of debate among intellectual and academic elites about the role of the individual and individualism to understand changes.

However, these approaches, in my view, reflect a cognitive and cultural alienation that has led to the treatment of individualism as a measure of linear development of Arab societies.
