Synopsis

This book takes a closer look at the prospects of the United States of America forging a civilisational change it urgently needs in order not only to extricate its life from the current moral mess that is Trumpism but also to prevent another catastrophic moral regress from happening again in the future. After a quick review of the Trump mess and an appraisal of the capability of the two major status quo political establishments in the country – the Republican Party and the Democratic Party – to deliver for America the kind of transformation that the American people can believe in, the book takes a stand that the believable prospects lie with the Bernie Sanders’ political revolution. The author applies her Islamic understanding to elucidate why and how Sanders the ‘messenger’, his ‘message’, his methodology, and the impact he has thus far created have the best chances - in spite of expected institutional and non-institutional challenges - of fixing it for America. The author would like to consider this work as a labor of love since she is driven by her Islamic belief that the Sanders’ political revolution speaks to a much larger audience than the 324 millions souls of America. It is to the vital survival interests of that vast humanity the world over that she hopes to serve through her show-casing of the Sanders’ experience.

À propos de l'auteur

Amriah Buang (B.A. Malaya, M.A. Palmerston North, N.Z, Ph. D. Manchester, UK) was a professor in Social Sciences, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia who seeks to contribute to the democratisation of knowledge. Mindful of the Islamic Khaldunian heritage in the genesis of modern social sciences and humanities she strives to bring the non-secular conversation back in studying, understanding and addressing the human conditions. A constructive Muslim, she heads the Malaysian Interactive Muslimah Network (IMAN) to illuminate and articulate the universality of the Islamic message. Her present undertaking, The Coming American Redemption – A Muslim’s Reading Of Bernie Sanders’ Political Revolution represents her first attempt to merge and weave faith with reason in evaluating a phenomenal turning point in the political course of the greatest country in the history of the world. She is driven by the belief that post-prophetic elucidation of the human career on this planet means the emergence of an applied human science where the rational application of revelation contributes to the diagnosis, prognosis and remedies of the human problems.
