Abstract

This article considers the dual roles that Islam and democracy play within political theories of the most representative ideological trends in Morocco: political Islam as conceived by the Islamist leader ʿAbd al-Salām Yāsīn (b. 1928) and Arab nationalism by the rationalist philosopher, Muḥammad ʿĀbid al-Jābrī (b. 1935).
