Tradition and modernity can be in common, if a modernization autonomic work and if an old doesn’t destroy, than transforms. Without one’s own of reflexion and of autonomic modernization, islamic world will be poor and undeveloped world as and all poor countries during of planetary domination of neoliberalism and mondialization of west modernity; then on the understandings of islamic conservatism. By autonomic modernization, islamic world will become more powerful and more respectable subject of global communication.
