Abstract

The article considers the role of the religious factor in the development of societies in Afro-Asian countries. Particular attention is paid to the consideration of religion in the context of the “EAST-WEST” dichotomy, the differences between the Western and Eastern pictures of the world, different approaches to the world order. This work aims to show that the modern revitalization of religion, its entry into the foreground of history are taking place against the background of growing crisis trends and exacerbation of contradictions in the political and socio-economic life of Afro-Asian countries. There can be identified several factors that contribute to the increasing influence of Islam on the evolution of traditional communities, as well as on the processes of national-political and cultural integration in modern condition.
