Abstract
Abstract:
This article deals with Allāmeh Tabātabāī’s views on the type of society’s existence. I will demonstrate that there is a contradiction and inconsistency in his views regarding this issue. While, explicitly, maintained in his philosophical work, Osool-e Falsafeh va Ravesh-e Reālism, that society has an abstract, conceptual, and non-concrete nature, Tabātabāī insists in his theosophical book, al-Mizān, of concrete, factual and real existence of society. Clearly, these two views are totally different, and incompatible with each other.
