فلسفة الحداثة الإسلامية عند طه عبد الرحمن : الأسس الفكرية و الرهانات الأخلاقية

Abstract EN

The research aims to discuss the philosophical conception of Islamic modernity as presented by Taha Abderrahman in his philosophical project, on the two sides of the intellectual and cognitive foundations first, and the ethical and religious stakes secondly.

Therefore, we will first stop at the concept of modernity, as it is mentioned in philosophical and intellectual research in general, and as defined in the "spirit of modernity" in particular.

Secondly, we highlight the most important features of Western modernity (the crisis of knowledge - the domination of technology - verbal injustice, etc.) and the justifications for its criticism according to Taha Abderrahman.

While we show, in third, the most important defects and pests of modernity transmitted reproduced in Arab thought in terms of it is an “incomplete” modernity because it lacks the conditions of “creativity” and “independence”.

Fourth, we discuss the ethical evaluation of modernity in its Western image on the one hand, and on the other hand we highlight the features of the alternative modernist model proposed by Taha, explaining its most important foundations, and analyzing its most prominent aims and objectives.

Finally we conclude with a summary that includes the most important results of the research.
