El artículo presenta cómo el filósofo alemán Theodor W. Adorno concibe el estado social de la música de la primera mitad del siglo XX. Para ello recurro a
una serie de conceptos utilizados por el autor y cuyas raíces están en el pensamiento filosófico de la modernidad. Con gran influencia de Walter Benjamin, cada concepto en Adorno es una constelación, es decir, una idea que debe ser desarrollada y que al relacionarse con otros conceptos se llega a una interpretación más abarcadora del problema a considerarse. Así pues, divido el escrito en dos partes: uno dedicado al análisis de la ideología y el otro al de reificación. Cada capítulo así mismo está dividido en distintos apartados, con el ánimo de dar una visión más amplia de cómo Adorno entendió el problema de la experiencia musical para al final dar cuenta de la importancia del pensamiento estético de Adorno al compararlo con otros autores que reflexionaron sobre el mismo tema.
The burning of the Jordan pilot Muath al-Kasasbeh created a worldwide outcry, which was noticeably vocal in the Islamic world. Not only were we able to see people taken to the streets, we could also witness an utter condemnation of this act by prominent religious institutions like al-Azhar. Moreover, even before this terrific event the so called Islamic State (IS) has been criticized on various occasions by prominent Muslim scholars. The common trope these statements share is that despite its name, IS does not represent “true Islam”. The most prominent document in this regard surely is the open letter, which was addressed to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the self-proclaimed “caliph” of IS, signed by 174 prominent Muslim figures and spokespersons from all over the world and which has been translated into multiple languages. The Facebook group that formed around this letter has currently reached over 100.000 likes and has developed into a hub for people from all over the world, who oppose IS ideology from a Muslim perspective. Although there has been some media coverage mentioning the publication of the letter, its actual contents have not been discussed very much in detail so far. So what does the document actually say?
Persons traveling to participate in foreign conflicts by no means constitute a new phenomenon that is intrinsically tied to the ‘Islamic State’ (‘IS’). However, law enforcement agencies all over the world increasingly focus on foreign fighters travelling to Syria and Iraq due to a considerable rise in their number as well as the perceived threat they pose upon their return. Currently, around 650 German residents and citizens have travelled to the region to support jihadist groups such as the ‘IS’.
