Online lecture by James Robinson «The Islamic Tradition».
Topic
The lecture studies the nature of constitutionalism in the Islamic world and how it deviates radically from the Liberal-Democratic Tradition. Most importantly, the objective of the state is not to aggregate preferences or reflect popular opinions, but to implement the Sharia. This has radical implications for the nature of executive authority and accountability. The speaker would also present a model of Islamic constitutionalism and discuss what it tells us about why Islamic constitutions look different.
