The Shiite Political Discourse Universalism and Reproduction of the Contemporary Salafism

By creating deprivation in the life of their citizens, the authoritative governments who are dependent on the trans-regional powers in Middle East prepare the ground for ideological and political divergence due to democratic demands among them. The challenge between the political discourse of Shiism and the radical Sunnism may be analyzed from this angle. This divergence is developed by information services in some countries, aiming at weakening the political authority of Islamic world. Islamic movements, with a democratic approach for getting out of this social crisis, are trying to gain their real status in various areas of the Middle East. The present study seeks to answer the question of what the effect of the Shiite political discourse and universalism with a democratic approach on reproduction of modern Salafism is. (Question) The speculation of this article is that the evolutionary trend in theoretical framework and the practical structure of the Shiite political discourse and its link with the universal discourse stimulate the rivalry of the Sunnite radical discourse, and the anti-democratic radical Sunnism has heighten the crisis in Islamic world, intensifying violence in the region and throughout the world. (Hypothesis) Achieving democratic convergence as a solution for the aforementioned discourse can be useful for getting out of the crisis. (Goal) The data of the main sources obtained through historical studies using the interdisciplinary method made it possible to reconcile the discourses. (Method) promoting peace and universal coexistence and developing Islamic democratic convergence in theoretical and practical domains in line with fulfilling the interests of the trends involved are among the achievements of this article (findings).
