Riassunto - Oggetto di questo testo è un'indagine dedicata alle strutture responsabili della "chiusura dogmatica" dell'Islam al fine di delineare una possibile via d'uscita da questa situazione. Viene distinto e descritto un "tempo delle riforme" e un "tempo della sovversione". Il primo esprime una prassi discorsiva e un'azione di tipo storico che sino a oggi non è riuscita a spingere abbastanza in avanti la trasformazione sociale. Il secondo disegna invece la rinascita di uno spirito illuminista e la formazione di una ragione futura, che possa davvero consentire l'uscita da quelle strutture sociali, politiche e religiose caratterizzate da una "chiusura dogmatica".Parole chiave - Islam; Riforma; Sovversione; Ragione; Politica. Reform or Subversion? Towards a politics of Reason Abstract - This paper gives an analysis of the structures responsible for the "dogmatic closure" of Islam in order to delineate a possible way out of this situation. A "time for reform" is described and distinguished from a "time for subversion". The first approach is described as a discursive praxis and an historical action that until now has not pushed social transformation forward sufficiently. The second promises instead the renewal of an Enlightened spirit and the development of a future cultivation of reason that will truly be able to lead Islam out of those social, political and religious structures that are now still characterized by a "dogmatic closure".Keywords: Islam; Reform; Subversion; Reason; Politics.

Islamic revivalism and the activities of those who are its real or perceived proponents have monopolized the discourse on Islam. This article explores how this focus has totally ignored an overwhelming majority of Muslims. Social scientists have failed to liberate Islamic studies from pro- and anti-Orientalism clichés. Islam is still imagined as inferior (to Jewish and Christian traditions), unchanging, and militant by the West; and superior, dynamic, and peace loving by Muslims. The article outlines a need to study Islam as an epistemological project. It argues for a new ijtihād for Muslim as well as non-Muslim scholars to initiate a process of new thinking on Islam with tools such as history of thought rather than political events or fixed parameters; to make unthinkable notions—a historical rather than a religious postulate—thinkable; and to relate secularism, religion, and culture to contemporary challenges rather than substituting one for the other.
