This article is an attempt to synthesize and extract the philosophical elements of the Islamist discourse. It argues that contained within the discourse of contemporary Islamic resurgence are the foundations of an Islamic political philosophy. The article identifies three central dimensions--critical, reconstitutive, and programmatic--in the political philosophy of Islamic resurgence and explores the arguments developed under those categories. The article also makes a distinction between first-generation and second-generation Islamists and illustrates the evolution of the Islamist discourse from critical to programmatic. In essence the article claims that there is significantly more to what the Islamists are saying than just polemics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
