In this dissertation I introduce the works of the neglected contemporary Muslim philosopher, Taha Abderrahmane. His work has yet to be the subject of any manuscript length work in the English language. My research has focused on the primary goals of bringing his work to a Western audience. Second, I rather than comparing him solely within the historical context of contemporary Islamic thought, I have chosen to place him in conversation with Western intellectuals. He has been the subject of three journal articles and engaged with as part of a dissertation. This dissertation will provide the most extensive discussion of his intellectual project to date. The thrust of Abderrahmane's project is the construction of a unique Islamic metaphysic, as well as an Islamic approach to globalization and modernity rooted in ethics. I analyze his work into to major themes. First, I detail his Sufi metaphysic based on an ethical praxis. Second, I outline his vision of an Islamic modernity and global ethics that he derives from the ethical praxis that he asserts is central to Islam. I then compare his work to three Western intellectuals Jürgen Habermas, Chantal Mouffe, and Emmanuel Levinas. I argue that his work has the possibility for significant contributions, not only within Islamic studies, but within the Western tradition as well.
