Pax arabica
The expression Pax Arabica (Latin: Arab Peace ), not to be confused with Pax Islamica , denotes in a positive sense "peacemaking or rulership according to the Arab pattern". His critics use it for the program of political, religious, journalistic, etc. suppression of views other than Arab, if necessary with the use of military power, to secure the predominance of Arab values desired by their advocates.
Accordingly, Pax Arabica means the unconditional rule of Arab values, concepts and ideas, Islam, even over people within their sphere of influence who do not share these values: the superiority, superiority of Arab thought, feeling, and action over all other views in the world should be established and be secured.
The Pax Arabica is a counter-model to the western world of consumption and the Enlightenment . It is based on the " Pax Romana " of the Roman Empire , the " Pax Britannica " (English colonial rule), the " Pax Mongolica " and the " Pax Americana " (today's world affairs with the dominance of the only remaining superpower USA) A model or dream of people with Arabic roots to exercise or strive for regional or world domination: in the firm belief that under the validity of Arabic values, Islam (especially in the Arabic, sharp Wahhabi character), the world will be an overall better (and more godly) will be.
Similar to the transcendence category of Christianity , in the Pax Arabica reference is made away from earthly events to a time "after life": that the believer or Muslim , who lives according to Arabic customs and practices, then in the afterlife, in the paradise of the proclamation of the prophet Mohammed would receive his reward.
Historical ideal images of the Pax Arabica see their proponents partly in the earlier caliphates of Baghdad (the time of Hārūn ar-Raschīd ) or Córdoba (Al-Andalus, Andalusia ) over 1,000 years ago, before the western world and Christianity dominated interpretation today of world affairs won.
