Today, in the new world order, one of the great challenges of Western modernity is to manage moral and religious plurality in order to achieve better coexistence. However, much work remains to be done: first, within each religious tradition; second, between different traditions; and third, between these traditions and modernity. Dogmatism is at the heart of these debates. Whether traditional or modern, it hinders reason in its process of liberation. We will attempt to demonstrate how liberation from dogmatism in general, and liberation from Muslim dogmatism in particular, can contribute to achieving better coexistence. To do this, we will analyze the projects of two contemporary Muslim thinkers: Mohammed Arkoun and Tariq Ramadan. Arkoun believes that this change must follow the model of Western liberation, through a subversive critique of Islamic tradition. Ramadan, on the other hand, opts for radical reform that aims at a comprehensive critique of tradition, but spares the foundations of faith: the 'sacred'.
