Technological Challenge Sample Clauses

Technological Challenge. The last technological revolution that took place in the secular countries presented an ideologically baffling problem to the IRI elite in more than one respect (Xxxxxx, M. & Xxxxxxxxxxx, T. 1995, pp.25-26). As a prominent reformist intellectual, Xxxxx Xxxxxxxxxxx, openly pointed out: In the late 1980s it was a clear indication of the ideological crisis of Islamic state that development and innovation came from the same secular and non- Islamic countries that according to all their religious scripture, texts, and contemporary publications were doomed to perish.23 Apart from the disturbing implications of this development for the overall traditional theories of an Islamic civilisation, the technological revolution in secular countries served to alert the IRI officials to this respect that Political Islam and the Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Doctrine had been unable to match their secular opponents in scientific and technological progress. On a larger scale, IRI’s increased attention in working with several associations of corporations in the Persian Gulf and with Russian and European corporations reflected a similar awareness among the lower ranks of Pan-Islamist intellectuals and their fellow militants. Even before their fellow Muslim merchant in the private sector had started to import technology from secular (non-Islamic) countries, most state officials had decided to adopt similar policies, not always to their ideological advantage.24 22- See ‘Eqtesade iran – keshvarhaye arabi khavar miyaneh – mozakerate solhe dar khavare miyaneh‘ (‘Economy of Iran – The Middle Eastern Arabic Countries – The Middle East Peace Negotiation) article in Farhange tose’eh (Developmental Culture) p. 57, fourth years, Xx. 00, Xxxxxxx Xxxx.
