FILOZOFIJA DRŽAVLJANSTVA U ISLAMSKOM PRAVU I LIBERALNOJ DEMOKRATIJI: ISKLJUČIVOST ILI KOMPATIBILNOST
PHILOSOPHY OF CITIZENSHIP IN ISLAMIC LAW AND LIBERAL DEMOCRACY : EXCLUSIVITY OR COMPATIBILITY

Summary/Abstract: Aim of this study is to define concepts of citizenship in Islam and liberal democracy and to determine if these notions in mentioned ideologies contain ideological or judicial dimensions. Study also shows by using the method of comparison in what ways are the visions of citizenship in mentioned ideologies compatibile and in what sense are they exclusive. Study then reflects on the arguments and evidence in the Islamic law on which the question of citizenship is based and tries to establish if these arguments are categorical and definite law texts which do not support any type of ijtihad, or is the question of citizenship in Islamic law based on secondary sources and speculative evidence which demands a new selective and intentional ijtihad. Newly established world circumstances should be taken into consideration, as well as conditions and global interests of Muslims and all humans in general. Finally, this study aims to offer a model for Islamic minorities that live in non-islamic environment and tries to give an answer to the question: if it is possible to coordinate between religious and civil obligations in the lives of Islamic minorities.
