Malek Bennabi’s Equation of Civilization: From Elucidation to Determining the Conditions
"The purpose of this paper is to focus on Bennabi’s equation of civilization (man + matter + time) and expand its
meanings and deny some illusions in understanding it in the hope of activating this vision to turn the general rule
into a visual program. The paper sets out three tasks. First, the detail in the partial dimensions of each of the
elements of the triangular complex of civilization. Second, the interaction of these three dimensions, so as not to
fall into a static understanding of the complex of civilization.
The Conditions of the Renaissance’ and the Theory of Malek Bennabi on the Driving Force of History
"In this study, we look for a fundamental question in the analysis of Malek Bennabi, relating to the concept of civilization, namely “the religious idea,” which is considered to be the dominant factor in the movement of history. Indeed, this “idea” could be seen as an extension of Ibn Khaldun’s theory of “Asabiyah (tribal cohesion),” at all steps of the state from its formation to its decline.
Malek Bennabi’s Intellectual and Methodological Horizon in Analysis and Theorization: Epistemic Coalescence and Interdisciplinarity
"The Conditions of the Renaissance is one of Malek Bennabi’s most well-known books, in which his vision of
civilization is as being the result of the encounter between man, soil, and time catalyzed by an idea that endows
them with significance, value, and efficacy.
Comprehensive Sunnaniyyah Paradigm
"Ibn Khaldun’s thesis in his seminal work, “The Introduction,” can be considered as the first early epistemological and Sunnaniyyah Paradigm Shift, which led to the initiation of Malek Bennabi’s thesis on The Conditions of the Renaissance, paving the way to construct coherent awareness and culture of civilizational renaissance.
