| Abstract | ||
| Though moderation is the closest approach to the logic of political sociology and sound mind, the discourse of moderation suffers a lot in Islamic and Arabic reality from a chronic abstention if it is compared to its opponent, the discourse of extremity. This discourse seems more popular, prevalent, sustainable and expressive of reality which interacts with. This situation raises questions about the abstention of moderation discourse. Does the problem lie with the authorities and institutions which produce it? Or is it in its written and spoken text? Or the problem lies in the social environment that the discourse aims to redeem. The study reveals that one of the weak factors of moderation discourse lies in the ambiguity of the concepts that related to the phenomena of discourse and the interference between religious and political areas. The study aims at diagnosing the structural obstacles of political and religious moderation discourse. It also shows the effective factors of moderation discourse and its culture in social environment. The researcher depends on a theoretical aspect in his study. The analytical approach has been used as a main approach in addition to descriptive approach and the approach of analyzing the content. The study concludes that the moderation, in reality is the twining of free thinking. It is impossible to claim free thinking on the basis of guardianship over peoples’ mind and their thought. There should be a freedom of expression without censorship. So, it is important to distinguish between religious and political domain. The study draws the attention of decision makers to adopt a strategy of two parts for creating a suitable and productive environment of moderation.1-Developmental part: there should be a starting point for treating the extremity and crisis of reality through developmental programmes on the whole levels: social, political, economic with due attention to the youth’s sector. 2-Cultural part: there is an urgent need to popularize and adopt a sensible and monetary approach in all aspects of life: political and religious via sensible, free educational system far from the guardianship of authority and religious institutions. | ||
