{Writeup: http://bit.ly/AZMultiplex} Dr Recep Şenturk has been involved in the development of "Multiplexity", based on Islamic instead of Western epistemology.  This video records my comment on the approach in a recent workshop on this topic. I argue that this is a central problem facing the Muslims. The Islamic Civilization became thought leaders of the world by following an approach to knowledge grounded in the Quran. Today, we have, as a whole, abandoned this approach in favor of a pseudo-scientific methodology which underlies modern Western social science. My comments explain this problem in greater detail, and discuss possible solutions.
