Abstract
that the autocracy of the Middle East arises from the theological voluntarism of Ashʿarism. ElMerheb’s main finding—that the common points in the political views of the thinkers discussed in this work, all Ashʿarīs, are the rule of law, limited government and the delegation of power—challenges this claim. It seems that each thinker examined here within a limited space deserves independent work, which gives future researchers new horizons to pursue.
