from Part I - Global Knowledge/Global Thought
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 December 2018
The chapter focuses on the question of justice in the context of the relationships between Muslims and the Western world. An-Na`im argues, among other things, that this relationship is made in part difficult by the legacy of colonialism and imperialism in the Middle East.

He points to how each tradition is compatible with liberal political and human rights values. Indeed, there is no reconciliation with others if there is no reconciliation with oneself.
