RELIGIOUS FUNDAMENTALISM

Journal Title: FBIM Transactions - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 2

Abstract

One of the most frequently used today's term is certainly the fundamentalism, from which the term religious fundamentalism comes out to eventually reach the most frequent, and that is Islamic fundamentalism. Fundamentalism as a term derives from the Latin word „fundamentum“ and in translation means the basis. This term can be defined as a position where certain principles are considered essential or fundamental truthsand they have an unchangeable or inviolable authority. If we talk about fundamentalist movements, author Karen Armstrong defines them as "defeated forms of spirituality that have emerged in response to the perceived crises." These crises occur within religions, and this includes Christianity, Judaism, Islam where this term is used for the most conservative wings within these religions. The aim of this research is to introduce the reader with this extremely topical and complex phenomenon and pointing at its versatility, or presence in all segments of man's being, starting from religion, politics, and philosophy.
