"This book examines the possibility of reconciliation between
liberalism and Shiite Islam. By examining two key liberal theories,
this book shows that secular liberalism is not justifiable in the
view of Shiite Islamic thought. Yet, since the liberal state is
tolerant of Shiite Muslim citizens, at the practical level, there
is no ground for conflict between liberal societies and Shiite
Muslim minorities. Therefore, whilst Shiite Muslims at home should
refrain from constructing the basic structure of their societies in
accordance with liberal theory, Shiite Muslim minorities of liberal
societies should accept the basic structure of these societies in
return for receiving freedoms, protections, and opportunities." --
