Dissertation Final Version Tookhy July 24 STATE-BUILDING, SECULARISM, AND CONTESTATION: A STUDY OF AFGHANISTAN, IRAN, AND TURKEY IN THE EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Government By Ahmad Farid Tookhy, M.A. Washington, DC July 10, 2018 Copyright 2018 by Ahmad Farid Tookhy All rights Reserved ii STATE-BUILDING, SECULARISM, AND CONTESTATION: A STUDY OF AFGHANISTAN, IRAN, AND TURKEY IN THE EARLY TWENTIETH CENTURY Ahmad Farid Tookhy, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Charles E. King, D.Phil. ABSTRACT Through a comparative historical analysis of Turkey, Iran, and Afghanistan in the early decades of the twentieth century, this study seeks to help us understand how and why the introduction of European models of governance into the Islamic cultural area– through the construction of modern national states– spurred theoretical and physical contestations in the latter over the role of religion in public life. Two central questions guide the study. First, why and how did the rulers of Turkey, Iran and Afghanistan seek to limit the role of religious norms, symbols, authorities, and institutions in their societies in the course of their state-building project? Second, what theoretical and physical contestations did these projects occasion and why? I use primary sources and historical scholarship and a historical-interpretive approach to help find answers to these questions. These theoretical and physical contestations issued from the fact that the project of state-building, on the one hand, amounted to a radical departure from the old social order and, on the other, threatened the material and symbolic interests of the beneficiaries of the old social order. These contestations were conditioned by a number of factors, which were, in turn, products of longue durée macro-historical developments in each country: the character of religious beliefs and customs, the structure and cohesion of the religious body, historical precedents for relations between political and religious power, the general habits and dispositions of the population, and the length and scope of each society’s exposure to the European currents of thought. iii The decisive factor in each setting was the social base and material capabilities of the modernists versus proponents of the old social order. In both Iran and Turkey, the social and conceptual conditions for the transformation of the institutional order had largely been laid down through previous attempts at social change; hence the success of the ruling elites in constructing relatively modern national states. The absence of the requisite social and conceptual conditions for the revolutionary transformation of the old social order led to the failure of the state-building project in the case of Afghanistan. iv The research and writing of this thesis is dedicated to everyone who helped along the way.

This study is an enquiry into the nature, contour, and outcomes of these contestations in three Muslim-majority societies during the early decades of the twentieth century. In the twentieth century, as part of their attempts at constructing modern national states, rulers of many Muslim-majority countries tried, coercively often, to limit the influence of religious ideas, authorities and institutions in their societies. In fact, this was not confined to Muslim societies if we look at the broader global trends. Attempts by state rulers or political movements to deprive religion of its privileged position as the ideological basis of public life were common in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. During the nineteenth century, such measures occurred largely in Western Europe and the Americas; in the twentieth century, they spread across the globe. According to one estimate, about half of the world’s population, practicing different religions, were subjected to radical projects of secularization at some point between 1917 and 1967.2 Some notable examples include Russia, Mexico, Italy, Spain, Republic of Turkey, Iran, Tunisia, Algeria, and so on. 1 Foucault, Security, Territory, Population, 149. 2 Shah and Philpott, “The Fall and Rise of Religion in International Relations: History and Theory,” 44. 1 Thus, in a significant number of countries across the world, the ruling elites or emerging political movements sought to push religious symbols, values, authorities and institutions to the sidelines of public life, occasionally even trying to coercively privatize or altogether eliminate religion. Depending on the context, the justification for such projects was normally furnished by the “ideologies of progress”3- in particular, nationalism, liberalism, and socialism- which were the staple of domestic and global politics during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Beneath such ideological justifications, however, lay a deeper transformation

  • In the Eyes of the Iranian Intellectuals of The
    “The West” in the Eyes of the Iranian Intellectuals of the Interwar Years (1919–1939) Mehrzad Boroujerdi n 1929, after a lecture by Arnold Toynbee (from the notes of Denison Ross, the fi rst director of the School of Oriental and African Studies) on the subject of the modern- ization of the Middle East, a commentator said, Persia has not been modernized and has not in reality been Westernized. Look at the map: there is Persia right up against Russia. For the past hundred years, living cheek by jowl with Russia, Persia has maintained her complete independence of Russian thought. Although sixty to seventy percent of her trade for the past hundred years has been with Russia, Persia remains aloof in spirit and in practice. For the past ten years, Persia has been living alongside the Union of Socialist Soviet Republics, and has remained free from any impregnation by their basic ideas. Her freedom is due to her cultural independence. For the safety of Persia it is essential, if she is to continue to develop on her own lines, that she should not attempt modernization, and I do not think that the attempt is being made. It is true that the Persians have adopted motor-cars and in small way railways. But let us remember that the Persians have always been in the forefront in anything of that sort. The fi rst Eastern nation to enter the Postal Union and to adopt a system of telegraphs was Persia, which country was also among the fi rst of the Eastern nations to join the League of Nations and to become an active member.

  • "Désintérêt" Politique À Une Fascination Culturelle Mutuelle DISSERTATION
    France-Iran: dans le sillage du "désintérêt" politique à une fascination culturelle mutuelle DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jaleh Sharif, MA Graduate Program in French and Italian The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Professor Jennifer Willging, Adviser Professor Danielle Marx-Scouras Professor Richard Davis 1 Copyright by Jaleh Sharif 2015 2 Abstract This dissertation studies the history of Francophonie in Iran since the first fructuous official interactions between France and Persia in 17th century. Francophonie, i.e., the use of the French language and culture outside of France, has followed a winding path throughout several centuries in Persia (Iran). It grew from the interest of the Persian elite in a French society that neither engaged Persia militarily, nor attempted to compete with other European powers doing so. France's apparent lack of political interest in Persia became an official French diplomatic policy of "désintéressement," or "disinterest." This "hands off" policy nourished a Persian/Iranian fascination with French culture during the 19th and 20th centuries, as France was seen as a potential ally against the growing menace of Russia and Great Britain. As a result, and despite the growing political influence of other Western powers in Persia/Iran, the French language enjoyed the privileged status of first foreign Western language in Persia/Iran for almost a century, before being replaced by the English language due to the entry of the United States onto the international stage after the Second World War.

However, it is mentioned that his birth had already taken place by start of the imamate of the 11th Imam, which lasted from 254 A.H to 2560 A.H. Thus if he was 9-10 years old at this time, (an age when children begin to understand matters), then he must have been born around 250 A.H. He was born in the village of Kulain, about 38 kms from the Iranian city of Raiy, which was an important city at that time. His father was also a scholar. Thus Mohammed bin Yaqoob al Kulayni was born around 250Ah, which was the period of imamate of the 10th Imam, and then when he was a little older, it was the period of the imamate of the 11th Imam. Kunniyat: His kunniyat (agnomen) was Abu Ja’far. An interesting coincidence is that the name of all the three compilers of the 4 basic books of ahadeeth( al-kafi, Man la Yahdharuhul Faqih, Te- hdheeb ul ehkam and Istibsaar fi mukhtatafil akhbar) is Mohammed, and the kunniyat of all of them was Abu Ja’far.

  • The First Generation of Muslim Intellectuals 7
    The First Generation of Muslim Intellectuals 7 THE FIRST GENERATION OF MUSLIM INTELLECTUALS AND THE ‘RIGHTS OF MAN’ SADEQ Z. BIGDELI Generally speaking, men are influenced by books which clarify their own thought, which express their own notions well, or which suggest to them ideas which their minds are already predisposed to accept. Carl Becker1 I. INTRODUCTION Long before the birth of the contemporary human-rights discourse, the ‗rights of man‘ found an interesting fate in the nineteenth century. On the one hand, natural rights doctrine was propagated through the French Revolution 1789, which despite its controversial aftermath, continued to inspire the ‗global intellectuals‘2 in many parts of the world. At the theoretical level on the other hand, as the process of secularization of natural law was completed by the late eighteenth century, the philosophical foundations of Lockean rights doctrine were put into serious doubt by all sides of the philosophical spectrum, from Bentham to Marx. Bentham wrote a harsh critique on the French Declaration of the Rights of Man and the Citizen 1789 and described the underlying principle of equality claimed in the Declaration to be a natural right as ―absurd and miserable nonsense!‖ The critique of natural rights was not confined to utilitarian or legal positivist theories which flourished in the nineteenth century but it also came from Karl Marx, whose early works On the Jewish Question similarly contains a comprehensive critique of the French Declaration and its underlying individualism. Muslim intellectuals of the nineteenth century were mostly political activists, rather than theorists, to whom the idea of the ‗rights of man‘ had particular appeal.

Whilst this spread is a means of delight, it has suffered from a type of ideological dismantling. Contemporary Islamic though can be categorized into five main groupings: 1. Anti- rational Salafism, headed by Ibn Taymiyyah and Muhammad b. Abd al-Wahab, 2. Anti –Western Religious Revivalism, headed by Sayyid Jamal al-Din Asadrabadi, 3. Anti- Religious Protestantism headed by Akhund Zadeh and Taqi Zadeh, 4. Reformist Protestantism headed by Shariati and 5. the movement of forming an Islamic civilization, led by the unique architect of the 20th century, Imam Khomeini. These schools of thought, at times contain ideas that are quite similar, but at others are extremely contradictory. It is this issue that has made research concerning these schools and ideas even more essential. Elements such as irrationality, being anti-western, reactions in the face of the waves of modernity and political theories based on religion can be mentioned as being some of the most important factors in the appearance of these trends.
