In one direction, scholars interpret his Muqaddimah (Prolegomenon), written in 1377, as the point at which the new social sciences emerged. They identify Ibn Khalduns new science of culture as sociology or as an Islamic alternative to sociology. In the other direction, the interpretation of Khaldunian discourse is confined to the IslamicAristotelian paradigm of its time. The epistemological novelty of the Muqaddimah is dismissed and the science of culture is perceived as a minor contribution to the Aristotelian curriculum.Charting a different path, Javad Tabatabais highly original book is an enquiry into the condition of the im-possibility of the social sciences in the IslamicAristotelian paradigm. It theorizes the condition of im-possibility of the scientific revolution as the epistemic obstacle to modernity in Islamic civilization. This theorization revisits Michel Foucaults discussion of the condition of possibility of the human sciences in light of the history of ChristianAristotelian thought and the broader French debates about epistemology from Bachelard to Althusser.Javad Tabatabai offers a critical theory of tradition and modernity in the Middle East, elaborating on a historical situation where social and human sciences emerged by way of colonial and post-colonial translations of discourse from Europe, and in a historical and epistemological break with inherited traditions of knowledge. In this situation, Tabatabai highlights the significance of reactivating Ibn Khalduns critical reckoning with the limit of inherited traditions as the political-theological horizon of renewal....6701905Ibn Khaldun and the Social Sciences371515https://www.gandhi.com.mx/ibn-khaldun-and-the-social-sciences-9781509551378/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6592109/image.jpg?v=638648726506800000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20249781509551378_W3siaWQiOiJjN2UzNGYxYi05ZDc5LTQ1M2MtODNlNC1lMjg0MDA0MDVlZTYiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjUxNSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjE0NCwic2VsbGluZ1ByaWNlIjozNzEsImluY2x1ZGVzVGF4Ijp0cnVlLCJwcmljZVR5cGUiOiJXaG9sZXNhbGUiLCJjdXJyZW5jeSI6Ik1YTiIsImZyb20iOiIyMDI1LTA3LTI1VDIxOjAwOjAwWiIsInJlZ2lvbiI6Ik1YIiwiaXNQcmVvcmRlciI6ZmFsc2V9XQ==9781509551378_Arabic and European studies of Ibn Khaldun, the great medieval polymath, follow one of two paths.
