The problem of ideas

Author: Malek Bennabi - Editions: Héritage

“When incoherence in the world of ideas affects their logical relationships, we must expect all the confusion in minds which, for example in the political order, will not try to distinguish causes and effects. This is how Muslim society posed the problem of colonialism and neglected that of colonizability. »

“In general, when coming into the world, the ideas which have made its history are always effective, since they have raised storms, built or destroyed something, or simply turned a page of human history. They are not necessarily all true. An idea is true or false on a theological, logical, scientific, social level. But its history will not depend on its intrinsic character, it will depend on its dynamism, its power within a cultural universe and finally the economic situation. »

Conclusion

About the author : Malek Bennabi

Malek Bennabi (1905-1973) studied at length the problems of civilization in general and those of the Muslim world. Strongly imbued with Arab-Muslim and Western culture, we owe him the concept of “ colonizability ”, a concept characterizing societies in decadence. He has to his credit more than twenty works dealing with civilization, culture, ideology in general and problems linked to the stagnation of Muslim society in particular. Through his writings, Malek Bennabi wanted to awaken Muslim consciences and relaunch a renaissance of Muslim society.
