Islamic-Marxism

[The Advent of Anarchy]

I've just heard about this Iranian philosopher Dr. Ali Shariati. He was a Muslim philosopher, and, according to some unidentified web sources, is the founder of this movement called "Islamic Marxism". :huh:

I would like a more neutralish description of this movement's beliefs, and after you state what the theory is, criticize it all you'd like. :)

Ali Shariati was not a Marxist, his movement was not called Islamic Marxism. He simply made some sympathetic remarks about Marxism, as well as some hostile and dismissive remarks. Islamic Marxism is an oxymoron, it can't happen.
