Discussions of Islam in Turkey are still heavily dominated by
political considerations and the dualistic paradigms of modern v.
traditional, secular v. religious. Yet there exists a body of
Muslim institutions in the country - Turkish theology faculties -
whose work overcomes ideological divisions. By engaging with
Turkish theology in its theological rather than political concerns,
this book sheds light on complex Muslim voices in the context of a
largely Western and Christian modernity. Featuring the work of
Recep Alpyagil and Saban Ali Duzgun, this innovative study provides
a concise survey of Turkish Muslim positions on religious pluralism
and atheism as well as detailed treatments of both critical and
appreciative Turkish Muslim perspectives on Western Christianity.
The result is a critical reframing of the category of modernity
through the responses of Turkish theologians to the Western
intellectual tradition.
