Charles Saint-Prot, who led several magazines (National Thought in the late 1970s, the Journal for the Study of International Relations, from 1979 to 1981, and the journal Middle East and Third World from 1982 to 1986) and is one of the cofounders of journals Gaullists Arguments for France and a certain idea (1998-2003), is the author of numerous books, many of which have been translated into English, Arabic and Spanish.

Attached to the Gaullist , Charles Saint-Prot, which was close to Yasser Arafat and Michel Aflaq , founder of the Baath , the Iraqi Baathist and Arab nationalism, is a staunch supporter of the "dialogue of civilizations."

Islamic scholar, he suggested in his textbook Islam: The Future of Tradition between Revolution and Westernization (ed. du Rocher, 2008) alleviated some idea of Islam by arguing that the real Islam is the religion of "Balance" (Din Al Wasat), that of a reformist tradition, practicing ijtihad (effort adjustment) in cases relating to social life (mouamalat). This reformist tradition is the opposite of extremist excesses of a minority and westernization leading to self-denial and alienation.
