Islam and Democracy. Can They Co-Exist?

In this article one wonders if the union between democracy and Islam is possible and in what form. If we consider democracy as a system inspired by the universalism of values typical of the West, can this be compatible with the values professed by Islam? Through some authors we have tried to understand if there can be compatibility and by virtue of this compatibility to establish a possible relationship with the West. This article analyzes in the light of this if there are paths within Islam that make a possible meeting. Hence the question: is it possible to discover another Islam that can weave its fates with democracy?
