Abstract:
This paper is a preliminary attempt to bring to the fore some questions and issues regarding the role of habits in aesthetics. Indeed, much attention has recently been given to habits across a wide range of fields of inquiry: philosophers turn to the concept to investigate its significance to the historical development of Western thought; neuroscientists look into the role that habits play in the functioning of the human mind and identify the neural and psychological underpinnings of habitual behavior; anthropologists, political scientists and sociologists tap into habits as a key notion to explain social dynamics and collective behavior. For all of these waves that the notion has made in other parts of the humanities and social sciences, there have been so far, however, only a few sustained discussions of habits in conjunction with aesthetics. What is the role of habits in aesthetic experience? How do habits influence and regulate artistic creative processes?

Abstract:
On the basis of certain tensions between Jacques Rancière’s aesthetics and his political philosophy, the article tries to trace new modes of subjectivation in contemporary activism and art. It explores how the actors of the overlapping terrains of aesthetic and political practices organize ‘different forms, different spaces of expression and distribution of ideas’ in Rancière’s sense. Yet, analysing the practices of the Occupy movement, the Spanish M15 movement, and the dOCUMENTA (13) ‘agents’ AND AND AND as radically inclusive, polyvocal and transversal, it proposes a position that differs from Rancière’s rejection of activist art, a non-totalizing political aesthetics as a component of molecular revolution.

Abstract:
The paper deals with a review of Sorgner's new book, Philosophy of Posthuman Art. The review highlights Sorgner's positioning of postmodern art as emerging from a way of dealing with the realities of ontological naturalism and epistemic perspectivism. It is also highlighted why the author believes that the avant-garde and modernist aesthetic is lacking in dealing with a world of technology embedded post-modernity. In this sense, Sorgner's arguments for the totalitarian aspects of the avant-garde are presented. The paper also offers a critique regarding Sorgner's continental focus, and an argument for why his 10 aesthetics of posthuman art could be boiled down to eight, before finalizing with a walk through Sorgner's view on a posthuman total work of art and his view leisure within a posthuman era.

In this article, I think retrospectively with art and passages of writing produced in connection to a study on aesthetic activity and urban nature with two classes of fifth graders attending school in a city of the American Midwest. For this, I take on the art philosophy of Deleuze, Deleuze and Guattari and Deleuzian scholars to discuss how aesthetics and processes of art-making can inform empirical gestures based on distance from and invention of worlds. Art extracts sensations from chaotic forces that function in excess, variation, and proliferation, offering valuable practices to attune toward the affectivity of post-phenomenological life worlds.

Abstract:
The philosophical question of whether moral standards apply in art and the practical one of whether the arts can be vehicles of positive social transformation run through a great deal of social theory. In this article, these issues are discussed through an examination of Mahatma Gandhi’s approach to art and in particular his views on music and visual arts as they formed part of his personal world view and his socio-political programme. The article contextualises this in relation to Gandhi’s over-arching concern with the pursuit of truth and its theistic basis, his relationship to certain aspects of classical Indian philosophy and in particular the status of rasa among the four traditional purusharthas, and his relationship with Rabindranath Tagore and the artists at Kala Bhavan in Santiniketan, in particular Nandalal Bose. The article suggests that Gandhi was far from uninterested in aesthetic matters, but that the key to his thought lies in his holistic approach to both philosophy and lifestyle where the arts play an important role when integrated with ethical and religious demands.

Full text
Abstract:
The question of aesthetics in film-theoretical discourse today is split between, on the one hand, a film-phenomenological or “filmosophical” approach that values the putatively immanent relation between film and the mind and, on the other, the naturalizing epistemology of post-theory, which reduces the question of film aesthetics to one of poetics. What unites these otherwise disparate projects is the consideration of aesthetics divorced from the question of politics; in both cases, the social or political significance of the film–spectator relationship has been summarily purged. In this article, I will offer an alternative account of film aesthetics that draws on Jacques Rancière’s theory concerning the mutually determining relationship between aesthetics and politics. In particular, I will consider the relevance of Rancière’s thesis concerning what he calls the distribution of sensible to current accounts, as well as taking up his novel consideration of aesthetic distance and the “emancipated” spectator. With respect to film phenomenology, I will examine how its film-theoretical program rests on the flawed concept of a de-politicized spectator enchained by the film image. With respect to post-theory, I will examine how its appropriation from cognitive science of the rational agent model of meaning making inappropriately limits the political potential of film aesthetics.

Abstract:
The subject of the study is the aesthetic aspects of the German philosophy of the late XVIII - early XIX centuries. Modern culture, with its anti-traditionalist impulse for autonomy, freedom from external authority, the use of critical reason, universal principles, in terms of which is questioned religion, history, customs, by this time found its internal contradictions. Post-religious and postconventional Enlightenment values - secularism, humanism, the primacy of reason and science - poorly suited to maintaining the moral and social relations, in the course of everyday life, and led to their progressive deterioration. German idealists turned to the area of aesthetic in searh of means of reconciliation between science and morality, the nature and the subject. The article taken hermeneutical analysis of texts submitted in the tradition of German romanticism and idealism in order to identify the aesthetic basis of searches and solutions in the philosophy of this period. Project of aesthetics which emerged in the XVIII century is seen as key to European philosophy and culture "after the Enlightenment," and as having not only theoretical but also of political importance, because it is in aesthesis - subjective field of experiences, feelings, affects, modern man could seek reconciliation with the world after the loss of traditional meanings and authority

Full text
Abstract:
Neuroaesthetics is the study of the brain’s response to artistic stimuli. The neuroscientist V.S. Ramachandran contends that art is primarily “caricature” or “exaggeration.” Exaggerated forms hyperactivate neurons in viewers’ brains, which in turn produce specific, “universal” responses. Ramachandran identifies a precursor for his theory in the concept of rasa (literally “juice”) from classical Hindu aesthetics, which he associates with “exaggeration.” The canonical Sanskrit texts of Bharata Muni’s Natya Shastra and Abhinavagupta’s Abhinavabharati, however, do not support Ramachandran’s conclusions. They present audiences as dynamic co-creators, not passive recipients. I believe we could more accurately model the neurology of Hindu aesthetic experiences if we took indigenous rasa theory more seriously as qualitative data that could inform future research.

Abstract:
En quoi la notion de rupture permet-elle de comprendre ce qu'est un acte de création artistique ? Ce travail s'attache à montrer le lien entre trois figures de la rupture dans le domaine de l'art : au fondement de sa posture de créateur, il y aurait une rupture qui habite l'artiste ; comme principe de génération de l'œuvre, il y aurait acte de rupture ; dans la manière dont elle s'inscrit dans la civilisation, l'œuvre d'art ferait rupture. Faut-il ainsi penser que toute œuvre d'art reposerait sur l'exigence de rupture ? Et dans ce cas, pourquoi l'art serait-il déterminé par cette exigence ?

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse vise à apporter un éclairage philosophique sur l'œuvre cinématographique d'Alfred Hitchcock. Plus spécifiquement, il est question d'envisager les phénomènes esthétiques et narratifs afin d'évaluer la pertinence de ses films en matière de morale. Pour ce faire, nous proposons un travail en quatre étapes : tout d'abord, il faut prendre le temps nécessaire pour consolider les fondements théoriques de l'exégèse. La première partie s'efforce donc de mettre en place les éléments principaux pour la connaissance de son œuvre, du contexte de production et de ses caractéristiques les plus pertinentes. Par la suite sont envisagés les apports théoriques et conceptuels des critiques dans la filiation de laquelle se situe ce travail : la politique de réhabilitation d'Hitchcock opérée par les Cahiers du cinéma porte ses fruits aujourd'hui encore, malgré la nécessité de dépasser leur approche spiritualiste. Ainsi, cette thèse se veut leur héritière, tout en revendiquant l'utilité de perspectives alternatives comme celles de Robin Wood ou de William Drummin. Le second moment se propose d'entrer dans la diégèse hitchcockienne et d'analyser le plus justement possible les particularités du monde fictionnel créé à travers la cinquantaine de films constituant le corpus. Cette étude met en valeur l'idée d'un pessimisme latent qui se manifeste à travers une contingence ambivalente, une menace de la fatalité, une ambiguïté des fin heureuses, et une critique presque généralisée des institutions. La représentation des personnages n'est pas plus heureuse dans la mesure où l'antagonisme traditionnel méchants / bons est faussé par un manque d'héroïsme des protagonistes et une sympathie récurrente des vilains, dont la mise en scène particulièrement ambiguë favorise un rapport non conventionnel de la part des spectateurs. La troisième partie tente de dépasser cette inquiétude généralisée en montrant que les ressources personnelles des protagonistes, associées à leur rencontre parfois traumatisante avec le monde les amène à rendre possible une certaine éthique des rapports humains. Le couple engagement / dévouement est au centre de ce développement, permettant de mettre en avant la possibilité d'une évolution des personnages : d'une amoralité initiale, résultat d'une hostilité généralisée et d'un égoïsme primaire, ils peuvent prétendre au statut de véritables héros, porteurs ou représentants de valeurs et de vertus liées à l'altruisme et à l'acceptation du monde. Enfin, le dernier mouvement propose une étude de la réception, dont le but est de comprendre la position spectatorielle. Pour ce faire, nous analysons les procédés permettant le partage des expériences, afin de parvenir au concept de " vicarialité " qui semble le plus à même de décrire la forte implication et la conscience de soi qui résulte de l'esthétique hitchcockienne. Le moment final est centré sur la constitution du jugement moral du spectateur et sur la pertinence de cette œuvre dans la vie éthique du public.

Full text
Abstract:
L'objet de ce travail de recherche est de définir la relation de Samuel Beckett au classicisme français du dix-septième siècle. L'analyse préliminaire de différents manuscrits permet d'identifier les sources primaires et secondaires de ce dernier sur Pascal et Racine, et de mettre en avant, dans un second temps, les différentes correspondances, esthétiques et littéraires, entre l'œuvre de l'écrivain irlandais et Port-Royal. L'arrière-plan philosophique se définit par la conjonction de la logique, de l'éloquence et de la passion au cœur de l'œuvre racinienne, que l'on retrouve dans la rhétorique des Pensées, et l'analyse du langage dans la Logique ou l'art de Penser (1662) d'Arnauld et de Nicole. Les différents aspects de cette filiation intellectuelle sont établis à partir de l'analyse comparée des propos de Beckett dans ses séminaires sur la 'modernité' de Racine à Trinity College, Dublin, et des écrits théoriques de contemporains français parmi les plus illustres autour du 'classicisme moderne' et de 'l'antirhétorique'. L'étude de l'essai sur Proust, écrit en 1931, suivra ce bilan historiographique afin démontrer que l'œuvre de Beckett se situe dans le prolongement de l'augustinisme littéraire français,qu'il connaissait au moins à partir des écrits et en particulier du roman de Sainte-Beuve, Volupté. En outre, les thèmes augustiniens parcourent l'œuvre plus tardive, notamment la trilogie de romans français, Molloy, Malone Meurt, et L'Innommable comme les textes courts tels que Le Dépeupleur et Sans. L'intertextualité entre les écrits de Pascal et ceux de Beckett, doublée d'une analyse stylistique, démontrera que la syntaxe appauvrie de l'œuvre beckettienne est profondément inspirée du pessimisme augustinien vis-à-vis du langage. En effet, Beckett, adoptant le français comme principale langue d'expression, choisit le style des Pensées comme l'un de ses modèles les plus fondamentaux.

Abstract:
Before Al Gore's 2005 documentary "An Inconvenient Truth" ignited general public concern for the worsening environmental crisis, artists played a crucial role in both exemplifying ecological concerns and in building alternative living and social arrangements. They did so with a sense of "creative responsibility" that formal political and legal institutions seemed incapable of harnessing or acting upon. This thesis looks at how such activist aesthetic movements occurring simultaneously in Toronto and Windsor, Ontario, unleashed a form of "constituent imagination" at once critical, constructive and apparently more responsible than our traditionally "official" systems of responsibility. As these movements crystallized into a contemporary form of utopian thinking characterized by anti-foundationalism, aestheticism, and a deep sense of interconnected responsibility to "invisible others," it is argued that these movements are best understood and analyzed through the ethical philosophy of Emmanuel Levinas. By concretely situating and assessing long-standing limitations within Levinas' philosophy in terms of these activist movements, including the relationship between Levinas' aesthetic and ethical theory, his applicability to globalized scales of political responsibility, and the boundaries of his legal proximity and aesthetics of judgment, the thesis uncovers an "ethics of imagination" that brings Levinas into 21st century law and politics as an an-archic means of conceptualizing the world “otherwise” within the everyday.
Avant d'Al Gore en 2005 documentaire "Une vérité qui dérange" enflammé intérêt général du public pour l'aggravation de la crise de l'environnement, les artistes ont joué un rôle crucial dans les deux illustrant les préoccupations écologiques et dans la construction de logemnt de rechange et des dispositions sociales. Ils l'ont fait avec un sentiment de "responsabilité créatrice" que les institutions politiques officielles et juridiques semblait incapable d'exploiter ou de s'en servir. Cette thèse examine comment les militants de ces mouvements esthétiques qui se produisent simultanément à Toronto et à Windsor en Ontario, a déclenché une forme de «l'imagination constituante» à la fois critique, constructive et apparemment plus responsable que notre tradition "officielle" des systèmes de responsabilité. Comme ces mouvements cristallisé en une forme contemporaine de la pensée utopique caractérisée par anti-fondationalisme, esthétisme, et un profond sens des responsabilités reliées aux "autres invisibles», il est soutenu que ces mouvements sont mieux comprises et analysées par la philosophie éthique d'Emmanuel Levinas . Par concrètement situer et d'évaluer les limitations de longue date dans la philosophie de Levinas en fonction de ces mouvemens activistes, y compris la relation entre la théorie esthétique et éthique de Levinas, son applicabilité à des échelles mondialisé de la responsabilité politique, et les limites de sa proximité juridique et l'esthétique de arrêt, la thèse révèle une «éthique de l'imagination» qui apporte Levinas en 21e siècle, le droit et la politique comme un moyen an-archique de conceptualiser le monde «autrement» dans le quotidian.

Resumo: Nos tempos atuais, a dança incorpora-se definitivamente ao campo investigativo e reflexivo, institucional e acadêmico, por ser uma das mais ricas expressões culturais e civilizatórias. A partir de uma inspiração histórica e filosófica pretendemos, com este trabalho, defender a possibilidade de novas conjunções entre a dança, a escola, a vida política, as questões econômicas, os lugares sociais e as múltiplas expressões da cultura. Partindo das representações discursivas e simbólicas que configuram as múltiplas identidades da dança na sociedade de imagens, pretendemos comprovar que tais representações são uma miríade de simulacros estéticos sujeitos a uma apropriação fragmentada, definida pela condição de classe e sua conseqüente consciência. Em seguida propusemos uma releitura necessária e possível da tradição pedagógica grega, definida como ideal educativo helênico ou Paidéia Grega. Por fim, definimos possibilidades de uma releitura da tradição estética moderna, articulando-a com a práxis educativa, de modo a vislumbrar a potencialidade da refundação desse ideal a partir de novas configurações e novos sujeitos sociais e pedagógicos: a dança como parte orgânica de uma nova Paidéia, numa nova escola. Na sociedade de classes essas novas configurações são possíveis apenas como articulações críticas, como resistências educacionais e políticas. Essa nova condição somente será plenamente possível numa outra sociedade, onde o trabalho represente de fato o fundamento ontológico da emancipação humana
Abstract: Nowadays dance has definitely become part of the research, reflexive, institutional and academic field, as one of the richest cultural and civilizatory expressions. From a historical and philosophical inspiration we intended, with this research, to defend the possibility of new articulations among dance, school, political life, economic questions, social places and the multiple expressions of culture. From speech and symbolic representations which configure the multiple identities of dance in the society of images, we intended to testify that those representations are a myriad of aesthetical simulacra, subjcted to fragmented apropriations, defined by social conditions of class and its consequential consciousness. Then we developed a necessary and possible rereading of the Greek pedagogical tradition defined as the Hellenic ideal of education or Greek Paideia. At last, we defined possibilities of a rereading of the modern aesthetics tradition, articulating it with the educative praxis, in order to identify the pontentiality of the refoundation of this ideal from new conceptions and new social and pedagogical subjects: the dance as an organic part of a new Paideia, in a new school. In the class society these new configurations are possible only as critical approaches, as political and educational resistences. This new condition will only be entirely possible in another society, where labor represents plenarily the ontological fundament of human emancipation

African American Studies
Ph.D.
This study explores an African conception of Humanism as distinct from the European model and challenges the notion that Humanism is an entirely European construct. I argue that the ideological core of Humanism originated in ancient Kemet, the basis of which frames the African worldview. Furthermore, the theoretical framework provided by the African Humanistic paradigm serves as a model for structuring inter and intra group relations, for tackling notions of difference and issues of fundamentalism, for addressing socio-economic political concerns, and finally, to shift the currents of political rhetoric from one of jouissance to a more progressive and pragmatic stance.

Abstract:
AbstractWriting at a time in which speculative ways of thinking appear to be undergoing a reprise across the social sciences and humanities – whether through engagements with speculative cosmology (Stengers, 2006), speculative empiricism (Debaise, 2017), speculative fabulation (Haraway, 2011), speculative research (Wilkie et al., 2017), or speculative realism (Bryant et al., 2011) – in this chapter we introduce Speculative Geographies and our motivation for assembling the collection as a way of considering what concepts and practices of speculation might mean for geography, and how speculation might itself be conceived as geographical. In approaching the relationship between speculation and geography, we introduce the book as a collective desire to complicate the modes of thought used to evaluate experience by crafting alternatives, pluralising perspectives, and thereby problematising the immediately given. Far from abstract thinking, in this chapter we conceptualise speculation, after A.N. Whitehead, as a task of thinking abstractions – a style of thinking that prioritises an openness to what thought might become, and which therefore reconfigures empirical problems beyond what seems given in an immediate experience. The chapter traces key genealogies of this speculative practice including speculative philosophy, speculative fiction, and speculative design. Finally, we provide an overview of how the three themes of the book – ethics, technologies, aesthetics – speak to the chapters making up this edited collection.

Abstract:
At the end of the fourth century AH / tenth century AD, Al-Mutahhar bin Tahir Al-Maqdisi, who died in 390 AH / 999 AD, completed his book “The Beginning and History” to present to us in its introduction his philosophical theory of history! Trying to find unity and union between philosophy and history! And revealing a philosophical characteristic in historical material, by trying to search behind historical events (local and global), diagnosing the causes (historical causality), and emphasizing the comprehensive view in writing history. Accordingly, the above book is considered one of the most important and prominent works of the Abbasid era, which in its explanation came close to what became known as the term _philosophy of history_, with the subject of contemplating the universe and its history, in addition to his other theories in the fields of knowledge and reason. This is because he departed from the usual classical approach to writing history, and did not limit the historical material to being merely a storehouse of historical knowledge that assists Islamic law, and is directed to the state system and the organization of its individuals. He intended to subject this material to his philosophical outlook, and to formulate laws that develop the process of studying history and scientific research. in it

Abstract:
The philosophy of history needs the availability of basic components, namely: historical material (cognitive), historical thought (historical mentality represented by sense and historical awareness), and a balanced academic method (organized and precise) in order for the rational philosophical vision to emerge from comprehensive study of a civilizational nature for which laws (theories) can be formulated. ), with realistic evidence and evidence, called the philosophy of history! . Al-Yaqubi (third century AH / ninth century AD) showed comprehensive analysis with his sense and historical awareness, and through his historical criticism and his renewal of the method of historical recording, he distinguished himself from those who preceded him and those who followed him with his book entitled “The Problem of People of Their Time and What Predominates in Every Age,” thus revealing the beginning of For the idea of the philosophy of history, where he laid the foundations for the theory of the problem (imitation, imitation) as one of the engines of the wheel of history, a factor influencing the spirituality of the era, the natures of the members of society, and an important and vital part in the formation of human civilizations . The law of problematization, in its philosophical theory, requires AlYaqoubi to reveal the characteristics of each caliph in his policies, interests, and social behaviors, which applies to those with power, influence, prestige, and authority, and as a symbol and role model for society (an elite group), in a collective imitation of their behaviors (at all times and places) by individuals. Human societies. Accordingly, Al-Yaqubi assumed that rulers have a fundamental role in preserving states and societies, and developing civilizations. They can either reform or corrupt them at all levels of civilization, and therefore the problem changes according to the trends of the elite symbols !

Abstract:
In an exciting series of Interdisciplinary Dialogues on the societal impacts of AI, we invite a guest speaker and panellists from the fields of science and engineering, health and humanities and social sciences to discuss the advances, challenges and opportunities raised by AI. The first dialogue in this series began with Yoshua Bengio, who, concerned about developments in generative AI and the major risks they pose for society, initiated the organization of a conference on the subject. The event took place on August 14, 2023 in Montreal, and was aimed at initiating collective, interdisciplinary reflection on the issues and risks posed by recent developments in AI. The conference took the form of a panel, moderated by Juliette Powell, to which seven specialists were invited who cover a variety of disciplines, including: computer science (Yoshua Bengio and Golnoosh Farnadi), law (Caroline Lequesne and Claire Boine), philosophy (Jocelyn Maclure), communication (Sonja Solomun) and political science (Hugo Loiseau). This document is the result of this first interdisciplinary dialogue on the societal impacts of AI. The speakers were invited to respond concisely, in the language of their choice, to questions raised during the event. Immerse yourself in reading these fascinating conversations, presented in a Q&A format that transcends disciplinary boundaries. The aim of these dialogues is to offer a critical and diverse perspective on the impact of AI on our everchanging world.

HEFNER, Robert. IHSAN ETHICS AND POLITICAL REVITALIZATION Appreciating Muqtedar Khan’s Islam and Good Governance. IIIT, October 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.47816/01.001.20.

Full text
Abstract:
Ours is an age of pervasive political turbulence, and the scale of the challenge requires new thinking on politics as well as public ethics for our world. In Western countries, the specter of Islamophobia, alt-right populism, along with racialized violence has shaken public confidence in long-secure assumptions rooted in democracy, diversity, and citizenship. The tragic denouement of so many of the Arab uprisings together with the ascendance of apocalyptic extremists like Daesh and Boko Haram have caused an even greater sense of alarm in large parts of the Muslim-majority world. It is against this backdrop that M.A. Muqtedar Khan has written a book of breathtaking range and ethical beauty. The author explores the history and sociology of the Muslim world, both classic and contemporary. He does so, however, not merely to chronicle the phases of its development, but to explore just why the message of compassion, mercy, and ethical beauty so prominent in the Quran and Sunna of the Prophet came over time to be displaced by a narrow legalism that emphasized jurisprudence, punishment, and social control. In the modern era, Western Orientalists and Islamists alike have pushed the juridification and interpretive reification of Islamic ethical traditions even further. Each group has asserted that the essence of Islam lies in jurisprudence (fiqh), and both have tended to imagine this legal heritage on the model of Western positive law, according to which law is authorized, codified, and enforced by a leviathan state. “Reification of Shariah and equating of Islam and Shariah has a rather emaciating effect on Islam,” Khan rightly argues. It leads its proponents to overlook “the depth and heights of Islamic faith, mysticism, philosophy or even emotions such as divine love (Muhabba)” (13). As the sociologist of Islamic law, Sami Zubaida, has similarly observed, in all these developments one sees evidence, not of a traditionalist reassertion of Muslim values, but a “triumph of Western models” of religion and state (Zubaida 2003:135). To counteract these impoverishing trends, Khan presents a far-reaching analysis that “seeks to move away from the now failed vision of Islamic states without demanding radical secularization” (2). He does so by positioning himself squarely within the ethical and mystical legacy of the Qur’an and traditions of the Prophet. As the book’s title makes clear, the key to this effort of religious recovery is “the cosmology of Ihsan and the worldview of Al-Tasawwuf, the science of Islamic mysticism” (1-2). For Islamist activists whose models of Islam have more to do with contemporary identity politics than a deep reading of Islamic traditions, Khan’s foregrounding of Ihsan may seem unfamiliar or baffling. But one of the many achievements of this book is the skill with which it plumbs the depth of scripture, classical commentaries, and tasawwuf practices to recover and confirm the ethic that lies at their heart. “The Quran promises that God is with those who do beautiful things,” the author reminds us (Khan 2019:1). The concept of Ihsan appears 191 times in 175 verses in the Quran (110). The concept is given its richest elaboration, Khan explains, in the famous hadith of the Angel Gabriel. This tradition recounts that when Gabriel appeared before the Prophet he asked, “What is Ihsan?” Both Gabriel’s question and the Prophet’s response make clear that Ihsan is an ideal at the center of the Qur’an and Sunna of the Prophet, and that it enjoins “perfection, goodness, to better, to do beautiful things and to do righteous deeds” (3). It is this cosmological ethic that Khan argues must be restored and implemented “to develop a political philosophy … that emphasizes love over law” (2). In its expansive exploration of Islamic ethics and civilization, Khan’s Islam and Good Governance will remind some readers of the late Shahab Ahmed’s remarkable book, What is Islam? The Importance of Being Islamic (Ahmed 2016). Both are works of impressive range and spiritual depth. But whereas Ahmed stood in the humanities wing of Islamic studies, Khan is an intellectual polymath who moves easily across the Islamic sciences, social theory, and comparative politics. He brings the full weight of his effort to conclusion with policy recommendations for how “to combine Sufism with political theory” (6), and to do so in a way that recommends specific “Islamic principles that encourage good governance, and politics in pursuit of goodness” (8).
