The event\u2019s distinguished audience included political figures, academics, researchers, media representatives, civil society organizations, and the ICGER team.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event opened with welcoming remarks from Antonella Zakhia, Head of Media and advertising department at &#8220;ICGER&#8221;. She emphasized the cultural and intellectual significance of the occasion, framing it within the Center\u2019s broader mission to rethink political and religious concepts through a rigorous, critical lens.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A short introductory film followed, offering an overview of ICGER\u2019s vision, research agenda, and past initiatives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>First Session: Rethinking Politics through Quantum Theory<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moderated by Dr. Imad Ghanoum, the first session featured Dr. Youssef presenting <em>Politics: Newtonian Classical Rules and Quantum Principles<\/em>. He elaborated on the scientific and philosophical foundations of the book, arguing that political analysis remains entrenched in its deterministic classical frameworks, which fail to capture the complexity of today\u2019s world. He proposed an alternative, inspired by quantum physics, to understand phenomena like governance, sovereignty, and decision-making.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Youssef outlined the book\u2019s key themes, including the contrast between Newtonian determinism and quantum openness, and how these paradigms can be applied to reinterpret historical and contemporary political dynamics.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Second Session: The Ash\u02bfarite Legacy and Its Sociopolitical Impact<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second session, co-moderated by Dr. Imad Ghanoum and Dr. Hiba Morcos, focused on Dr. Youssef\u2019s second book, <em>Ash\u02bfarism, Society, and the State<\/em>. He delivered a critical examination of the Ash\u02bfarite theological tradition, which he described as the dominant doctrinal framework in the Islamic world for over a millennium. According to Youssef, Ash\u02bfarism became a closed and stagnant system of thought that constrained the Muslim mind and obstructed religious renewal.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He called for a return to the early Islamic ethos of rational inquiry, experience, and open dialogue, values he associates with the first two Islamic centuries before the rise of Ash\u02bfarism. He contended that this period fostered the intellectual and social growth of Muslim communities before the rise of authoritarian theological tendencies.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both sessions sparked lively interaction, with attendees engaging Dr. Youssef in a robust dialogue that enriched the discussions and opened new avenues for understanding the ideological and political transformations in the Islamic world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The event concluded with a book signing, where Dr. Youssef personally inscribed copies of his works, which were distributed as gifts to the audience. The ceremony wrapped up with commemorative photos and media coverage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

At the International Center for Geopolitical and Economic Studies, we are working to shift politics from an art based on probabilities and speculation to a science based on rules, harnessing classical and quantum political analysis to interpret international relations and geostrategic equations. We aim to identify and isolate geopolitical facts to become able to control and restructure them. Our objective is to uncover the physical laws linking political reality to economic reality to prevent wars, resolve complex crises, and spread peace worldwide.","sameAs":["https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61552288207858","https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/international-center-for-geopolitical-and-economic-research-icger\/?viewAsMember=true","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/ICGER_ICGER"],"url":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/author\/icger\/"}]}},"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Profile.webp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2029"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2188,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2029\/revisions\/2188"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/eng.icgers.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
