Iranian philosopher, writes a lot about the Islamic revolution - I'm mainly interested in him for his efforts to reconcile religion with (a very fluid interpretation of) democracy. I think in these troubled times he's managing to propose, in the particular, a 'progressive' Islam without compromising core values and, in general, providing active solutions for the State/ religion 'conflict'. He is actually active qua politics as well - he was (possibly is) an adviser to the state, which assuages those fears of dilletante-ish intellectualism.
