| Zusammenfassung: | This paper aims to identify and investigate the nature, structure and influences of a society based on the viewpoint of ʿAllāma Sayyid Muḥammad Ḥusayn Ṭabāṭabāʾī (1904-1981), who laid the foundations of his sociological principles on Islamic philosophy. He was a contemporary Shiʾa philosopher, mystic, jurist, exegete of the Qurʾan and theologian who founded the Neo-Ṣadrāʾī philosophical school. By virtue of studying the nature of society from a philosophical perspective, he introduced the ideal Islamic society. This posed a great challenge for the traditional Iranian society of his time. He had new ideas about the nature of society, its constituents, and the relations between societies. He considers society true, and not a conventional constitution, which has new identity and effects. This chapter will use analytical methods to study the ideas of ʿAllāma Ṭabāṭabāʾī presented in his philosophical, social and exegetical writings about society. Through the analysis of the effects of society based on this large body of work the following question will be answered: is a society a living creature which has its own distinctive effects over and above the effects of its constituent parts e.g. growth, identity, authority, awareness and power? |
