Introduction to section 1. Classical approaches : understanding Islam
My approach to the sociology of religion and to the study of Islam has been
continuously influenced by classical sociology. I saw Islam as a civilisation that raised important issues for sociological theory, and in contemporary social sciences it invoked issues about inter-civilisational analysis, Orientalism, universalism and cosmopolitanism which continue to have relevance to modern problems of analysis and interpretation. In short my sociological work, and hence this Reader, has been preoccupied by questions relating to historical and comparative research. It was inevitable that the sociology of Max Weber has occupied much of my career. Weber's comparative study of religion, society and politics across a range of cultures was for me an exciting and challenging approach. As a young student on a long journey
through Eastern Europe and Russia in 1962, I became attracted intellectually to the comparative study of capitalism and communism. However, in much contemporary
anthropology and sociology, the emphasis has increasingly been on the local, specific and the particular. My own work has largely departed from these trends and hence I often find myself writing against rather than with the grain

Menimbang Gagasan Bryan S. Turner tentang Islam
This article explores the study of Islam by an orientalist, Bryan S. Turner. This study aimed to: first, to uncover the things that underlie the history of thought and movement of Orientalism. Second, to determine the thought Bryan S. Turner about Islam, which is specifically intended as a corrective to the thesis produced by Max Weber about his interpretation of Islam. The results of the study reveal that historically Orientalism, or the oriental studies movement emerged in the 18th century. This movement is often associated as a movement that pretend to control and weaken the East, especially Islam. It is not without basis, since the emergence of Orientalism has led to intellectual arrogance by claiming the West as a measure of civilization, because the East presented only in accordance with the construction used by the West. Keywords: Orientalism, Orient, West, civilization.</p
