چکیده:
Studying the relationship between ethics and politics and creating interaction between the political realm and ethical foundations is one of the important and scientific issues in the field of political philosophy and political thought. Reza Davari Ardakani and Alasdair MacIntyre are contemporary political and ethical philosophers who, within two different intellectual traditions (Islam and the West), have addressed the relationship between ethics and politics in their philosophical and political studies. This article—regardless of the differences between the two aforementioned intellectual traditions—seeks to answer the question: 'What is the relationship between ethics and politics in the political thought of Reza Davari Ardakani and Alasdair MacIntyre?' by considering general common characteristics and shared views in social and political matters. The hypothesis of the article is that Davari and MacIntyre, given their epistemological and anthropological systems, argue for the unity and connection of ethics and politics. Based on the findings of this research, both thinkers, in their final analysis, hold the view of the unity and connection of ethics and politics. Furthermore, we have attempted to examine the research hypothesis by drawing inspiration from the paradigmatic approach of the three-fold implications—explanatory, epistemological, and normative—of both thinkers and dissecting their ethical-political thoughts. The research method is analytical-descriptive and comparative.

This article — regardless of the differences between the two aforementioned intellectual traditions — seeks to answer the question: "What is the relationship between ethics and politics in the political thought of Reza Davari Ardakani and Alasdair MacIntyre?" based on common general characteristics and shared perspectives in social and political matters.
On this basis, the comparison of two prominent contemporary philosophers, one related to the field of Islamic philosophy and the other from the field of modern Western philosophy, namely Reza Davari Ardakani and Alasdair MacIntyre, has been the object of this research, and its foundation will also be the discussion about the relationship of these two influential human institutions within the philosophical framework of these two thinkers.
Many problems of the Enlightenment era, including the gap between reality and value, the ignoring of many metaphysical foundations, and the separation of religious status from moral judgments, have caused MacIntyre's thought to be based on the premise that the relationship between ethics and politics existing in the West is now undergoing severe disorder, and this matter, in MacIntyre's view, stems to some extent from the individualistic liberalism that emerged from the heart of the Enlightenment era; while he considers the main cause of this disorder in the Western world to be all the efforts of the Enlightenment era that occurred to replace Aristotelian reason and tradition with self-founded rationality and ultimately failed (MacIntyre, 1393a: 29 and 56).
