World Peace: The Comparison between Kantian Viewpoint and the Islamic Perspective
Journal Title: The Journal of Human Rights - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 1
Abstract
The meaning of "World Peace" is a situation in which all individuals, groups and nations while preserving their human dignity, have a life of justice, security, tolerance and cooperation as a "right"; and participate actively in determining their destiny and maintaining this situation in the world. Immanuel Kant, as the father of liberalism, is considered one of the founders of modernity and the most influential philosophers of modern times. The systematic theory of Kantian peace leans on his ethics and general philosophy. Whereas, Peace theories in Islamic political thought, in the two political philosophy and political jurisprudence aspects, have no cohesion. However, in general it can be said that the similarity between peace theory in Islam and the Kantian peace theory are superficial, and the differences are fundamental. چکیده مقصود از «صلح جهانی» وضعیتی است که در آن همة افراد، گروه‌ها و ملّت‌ها با حفظ کرامت انسانی خود از زندگیِ همراه با عدالت، امنیت، مدارا و همکاری به عنوان یک «حق» برخوردارند؛ و در تعیین سرنوشت خویش و در راستای حفظ این وضعیت در جهان فعالانه مشارکت می‌کنند. ایمانوئل کانت، به عنوان پدر لیبرالیسم، از بنیانگذاران تجدد و یکی از مؤثرترین فیلسوفان دوران مدرن محسوب می‌شود. نظریة نظام‌مند صلح کانت بر فلسفة اخلاق و فلسفة عمومی وی تکیه می‌زند. این در حالی است که نظریات صلح در اندیشة سیاسی اسلامی، در دو بُعد فلسفة سیاسی و فقه سیاسی، انسجام چندانی ندارد. در عین حال، به شکل کلی می‌توان گفت تشابه نظریة صلح در اسلام با نظریة صلح کانت، صوری، و تفاوت‌های آن‌ها بنیادین است
