La prĂĄctica polĂ­tica de Gandhi se basa en dominar este miedo.Le noyau de la thĂ©orie politique de Gandhi est de dĂ©montrer que le vĂ©ritable sujet politique est le citoyen et non pas l'Ă©tat. C'est-Ă -dire que dans l'esprit de Gandhi le citoyen Ă©tait toujours au-dessus de l'Ă©tat. Ainsi donc, la dĂ©cision du sujet politique sur la souverainetĂ© se convertit, pour Gandhi, en un vĂ©ritable sujet de la souverainetĂ© politique. Comme rĂ©sultat, le moment gandhien de la politique est un effort pour desĂ©thologiser et dĂ©sĂ©culariser le concept de la politique moderne tel que la prĂ©sente le souverain omniprĂ©sent de Thomas Hobbes. Ses idĂ©es sur l'Ă©thique en politique ont inciter Gandhi Ă  critiquer l'autoritĂ© publique hobbesienne et Ă  dĂ©sobĂ©ir Ă  l'Ă©tat et Ă  ses lois en surmontant le principe de la peur. La pratique politique de Gandhi est basĂ©e sur la domination de cette peur

    Holocaust Denial in Iran and anti-semitic discourse in the Muslim world

    No full text
    Holocaust Denial was seen in the past in relation to anti-Semitic propaganda, but in today’s world it has become a new political force in the hand of religious and radical ideologies. Raising doubts about the veracity of the Holocaust is used both as a major and integral tool of contemporary anti-Semitism and as a trend for relativism and subjectivism in historical view. The persistent Holocaust denial by the Arab and Iranian leaders in the Middle East is a new attempt to demonize the Jews. In the past decades the theories of Holocaust denial of Western scholars have been adopted strongly by some intellectuals and political activists in the Middle East. Anti-Semitic propaganda has been a marginal phenomenon in the Muslim world for a long time, but unfortunately it has been gaining strength in several countries over the past 5 years. This worrying development can contain the positive action of those who are paving the way in the world for better Muslim-Jew relations. Holocaust education in the Middle East, directed especially toward younger generation, can help to nurture the better men and women, who have the capacity to struggle for justice and to replace violence by dialogue. A more profound understanding of the Holocaust as a singular, but not incomprehensible, event, could promote awareness in the Middle East to diminish the amount of violence in human affairs and to reduce prejudice and discrimination

    David Robertson, the American conductor, addressing his audience while conducting the 2009 Last Night of the Proms, reflected on the makeup of his orchestra: "When looking at strife in the world, and for examples of overcoming it, just think of the orchestra. All the instruments you see originated in different parts of the world. They have different histories and modifications. They look different and produce different sounds. But here they are playing together in harmony.
