fetishization of doctrine

Tags: drafts

  • Jihad/security studies tends to fetishize doctrine
    • we take these orientialist views because we view these things as foriegn
    • these people adopt a different universalism, therefore we view it from first principals rather than viewing as a social element
    • why do we adopt a sociological view of ourselves but doctrine based of others?
  • is fiqh the correct mode of analysis? can everything be read through fiqh?
  • islamic financing
    • we should look at the social elements of it
    • less studied because of relatively curious nature of it
  • Talal asad
  • UN peacekeeping fetishization on rote practice of human rights and protection of civilians without teaching it

What is doctrine? What are the correct universalities? Is there a universality?
