About The Book

Say “Are they equal, those who know and those who do not know?” (Qur’an 39:9)

Renovatio’s Fall 2021 edition focuses on the timely and timeless matter of equality. The pursuit of equality has been pervasive yet remains elusive. Do we have a shared definition of equality, and can we recognize each other’s humanity without imposing upon ourselves conformity? Writers of varied backgrounds and traditions explore the allure—and the shortcomings—of our more compelling constructs of egalitarianism.

In an age of angst and fury, we would do well to turn to piety rooted in a love of God.

How do we account for a common humanity in a way that does not lead to bare uniformity, whereby we must all be human in the same way?

Rosabel Ansari

“The Diversity of Your Languages and Complexions”

Ethnic diversity serves as a sign of God, demonstrating that His ramifying creativity has been at work, and getting to know others enriches and enlarges the self

Juan Cole

A City We Can All Belong To

The Factory Syndrome has frayed the social fabric of industrial cities. Can insights about urbanization by the fourteenth-century Muslim polymath Ibn Khaldun help remedy our current crisis of community?

Marwa al-Sabouni

Is There Moral Equality Between Humans and Animals?

Like humans, animals possess rights—but are their rights any weaker than ours?

Claus Dierksmeier

Spirituality in the Postmodern World

How ought traditional metaphysics grapple with “liquid” spiritualities that revolve not around objectivity but around the individual self, free from all doctrinal restraints?
