 Among the most recent developments, expressed in various articles, on the Straussian side, let us point to Butterworth’s “How to Read Alfarabi” (2013) and “Alfarabi’s Goal: Political Philosophy, Not Political Theology” (2011) to which I referred earlier. On the other side, we can point to Charles Genequand’s “Théologie et philosophie. La providence chez al-Fârâbî et l’authenticité de l’Harmonie des opinions des deux sages” (2012), which objects to M. Rashed’s declaring the Harmonization inauthentic, and his (2013) “Le Platon d’al-Fârâbî”. Amor Cherni (2015), on the other hand, published a book on the relation between politics and metaphysics in al-Fârâbî (La cité et ses opinions: Politique et métaphysique ches Abû Nasr al-Fârâbî), which includes an appendix rejecting the authenticity of The Harmonization.
