Ehsan Naraghi – The sojourn of the West – Dr. Javad Tabatabai

According to Ehsan Naraghi <what he had> The story of "Eastern Nearness" (for what!) It is against the "poverty of the West".:

«… The power of the West comes from being immersed in reality, but the glory of the history of the East is from the eternal brilliance of truth.. Now we have to combine the reality of the West and the reality of the East and make it one, and this is a very expensive and difficult task, but at the same time it is very heartwarming and exciting.

It is obvious that there are serious doubts about these words of Ehsan Naraghi. These words are the theoretical foundation of an unmeasured method in examining the history of thought in Iran.

Ehsan Naraghi, as a sociologist, does not care that the western reality is based on the western truth, and therefore based on the eastern truth, it is not the existing reality..

It is obvious that combining the truth of the East with the reality of the West is one of the most important terms of "sociological ideologies".. This kind of imagination has arisen from a double incorrect assessment of the nature of "tradition" in the East and the transformation of thought in the West..

This assessment of the East and the Oriental man is the theoretical foundation of the "ideological" perception and interpretation that Ehsan Naraghi has obtained from the history of thought in Iran, but not the basis of the Eastern belief that his freedom is limited - which, of course, lacks any foundation in the Eastern thought. It is a theory- It is clear and not the theoretical basis of Western freedom that all Western thought is an effort to establish its theoretical foundation..

I would like to point out that "surrender to the truth" in the past history of Iran was made possible due to a tradition and an idea that for a long time only a ghost remained, and the summoning of that ghost with the help of the magic of "sociological ideologies", on the one hand, through the establishment of new ways will close, because the illusion of "what he had."…It will destroy the ability to make any effort and on the other hand, the possibility of understanding the tradition of thought will be lost.
