A comparative study of "cultural analysis of the political system of Islam" in the view of Imam Mohammad Ghazali and Bertrand Badie

According to classical anthropologists and historical sociologists, the formation of political systems is related to an early social phenomenon that has existed in all societies as a seed. Accordingly, the sociological understanding of the concept of culture gives a special direction to the analysis of political systems, and first of all, it requires the clarification of cultural symbols, i.e. the same semantic systems that are integrated within society. The present article is an attempt to get acquainted with the ideas of Bertrand Badie and Abu Hamed Mohammad Ghazali and to compare the views of these two theoretician on the foundations and socio-cultural characteristics of the Islamic political system. This article uses a comparative method to examine Bertrand Badie and Ghazali's approach. Based on the data obtained, which are mainly from first-hand sources and some analyzes of other theoretician on the proposed theories, Bertrand Badi'd's cultural analysis of political systems is largely consistent with Imam Mohammad Ghazali's theory of the Islamic political system. In some cases, there are differences.
