BOSNIAK UNDERSTANDING OF ISLAM IN 20TH CENTURY IN RELATION TO CONTEMPORARY SCIENCE

Abstract

The Bosniak understanding of Islam in the 20th century, in the first place, is moving towards a reformist orientation in the Muslim world regarding modern and contemporary science. This understanding of modern science does not manage to seize the depth and proportion of its epistemological, metaphysical and cultural subversion. Within the Bosniak understanding of Islam in the 20th century, it has been understood somewhat belatedly, that the imperial, aggressive, industrial, ideological, capitalistic, and, moreover, colonial character of modern and contemporary science is leading to global ecological crisis. The Bosniak Islamic thought responds even more belatedly to the bioethical challenges in the field of molecular biology or, to be more precise, all the biotechnical possibilities of life control that are becoming more and more real.
