“…Sharia for Muslims is the infallible law of God as embodied in the Quran and the teachings and examples of the Prophet Muhammad, which is supposed to govern the lives of all Muslims (Hamann, 2009). Sharia addresses secular laws as well as personal matters such as marriage, sex, diet, and prayer among others (Tibi, 2008). The implementation of the Sharia Law penal code in northern Nigeria had resulted in a major political and religious disagreement between Muslims and Christians, and it led to an outbreak of violence between Christians and Muslims in 2000 (Paden, 2008).…”

“…За почетак, Тиби истиче шеријат 13 као нешто што није довољно само реформисати, већ у потпуности напустити уколико се жели реформа ислама у Европи. Потпуно напуштање је неопходно и када су џихад и прозелитизам (da'wah) у питању (Tibi, 2008). Он подсећа да ислам има у својој историји традицију просветитељства, када је био отворен учењу од других, за разлику од данас, када политички ислам затвара умове савремених муслимана (Tibi, 2008).…”

“…Све у свему, евроислам је, пише Тиби, компатибилан са либералном демократијом, индивидуалним људским правима и захтевима цивилног друштва. Овај пројекат не треба изједначавати са асимилацијом (Tibi, 2008).…”

The aim of this paper is to show the intellectual and scientific work of the German sociologist of Syrian descent, Bassam Tibi, mainlyby the presenting his concept to the Euro-Islam, which is useful on international social and political level. The Euro-Islamic framework includes advice and guidelines to help Muslims and non-Muslims to constructively overcome the misunderstandings they encounter in the countries of Western Europe elsewhere. Also, Tibi suggests ways Muslims in the Muslim countries can painlessly go through the transition, which will lead them forward.Considering the fact that the countries of the former Yugoslavia are the homeland of a number of Muslims, Tibi's work can be useful for sociological analysis and guidelines for state policies, among others, in Serbia.

“…Values can either be imposed in coercive ways through violence and indoctrination or shared in positive ways through respect, tolerance, acceptance, and understanding. According to Tibi, the Leitkultur concept encompasses the usage of reason, commitment to the Constitution and individual human rights, separation of religion and state, pluralism, human dignity, and mutual tolerance (Tibi, 2008;Tibi, 2001). Likewise, the principle of constitutional patriotism, a concept associated with the liberal German scholar Juergen Habermas posits that citizenship is defined by shared, universal republican or democratic values, rather than by a common history or ethnic origin.…”

The article examines how Japan and Germany face the challenge of maintaining their self-images of global civilian powers in an unstable and unstructured world order. Both Japan and Germany have been struggling since 1945 with defining and identifying norms and interests that would help them interpret the lessons of history and enable them to act responsibly and constructively in a globalizing world. Even though multilateralism and anti-militarism have characterized the foreign policy of both states in the past, the article holds that Germany and Japan have exposed discrepancies between norms they avow and interests they pursue. It also contends that nationalist policies worsen those discrepancies. Indeed, nationalist ideas of restoring pride and honor in Japan explain why Japan has interpreted its war history differently from Germany. Likewise the quest for an equal military status explains why Germany has endorsed the selective use of force abroad whereas Japan has not. A comparison of migration policies shows that Japan embraces a more closed and descent based concept of nationhood, whereas Germany's national identity norms of openness, respect for difference and tolerance have been strained by nationalist immigration fears and terrorist threats. It is concluded that Japan's and Germany's ability to be perceived as respected international partners depends on their continued ability to act in full agreement with the high principles they claim to hold dear.
