| Summary: | Husserlian phenomenology and its terminology are utilised to justify the sociology of Islam and its
essentialist response through the course of transcultural exchanges and sedimentation with the
irreconcilable weltanshauung of the West. At the same time, the issue of structure and reliable
knowledge is considered through the difficult relationship between revivalist religion and state
politics where political legitimacy and the development of institutions is a feature of socio-political
fact. Here, Malaysian political culture and democracy is used as an example. It makes out that sociopolitical
realities, if not co-incidental with discourses of reliable knowledge and moral society, are
representations of the conciliation of interests with specific value orientation with regards to alternative
conceptions of moral society.
