الحداثة الغربية و أنماط الوعي بها في الفكر العربي المعاصر : دراسة مقارنة بين عبد الله العروي و طه عبد الرحمن

Abstract EN

This paper seeks to demonstrate patterns of conceptualizing of Western modernity in contemporary Arab thought, based on the hypothesis that this consciousness is not static.

In order to test this hypothesis, this study will be investigated in the texts by two Arab intellectuals, Abdullah al-Arawi and Taha Abdel Rahman.

The paper discussed the critiques presented by each of these scholars regarding the conceptualizations of Western modernity in Arab thought.

Then the study compared the cognitive and methodological tools employed by each thinker in formulating the various conceptualizations of Western modernity, as well as the philosophical contribution of each thinker to the establishment of an Arab or Islamic modernity.
