Alles, bloß kein Terrorismus
(2015)
Dies ist der sechste Artikel unseres Blogfokus „Salafismus in Deutschland“.
Salafisten propagieren eine Geschlechterordnung, die auf der Vorstellung gottgewollter Unterschiede zwischen Männern und Frauen basiert, aus denen ein komplementäres Rollenmodell mit klar umrissenen Handlungsfeldern abgeleitet wird. Diese Ordnung wird dezidiert als Alternative zur universalen Idee der Geschlechtergleichheit angeboten und erscheint darüberhinaus als attraktiver Lebensentwurf gerade für junge Männer und Frauen, die das Heroische jenseits des vermeintlich nüchternen Alltags suchen. Die Romantisierung des Dschihad zerschellt jedoch an der Wirklichkeit – was für wirksame Gegennarrative genutzt werden könnte....
In cases in which there is the possibility of massive human losses, the threshold likelihood of their occurrence, and the non-excessive costs of their prevention, we ought to act now. This is all the more definitely the case because it may well be that this is the time-of-last-opportunity to head off one or more potential disasters, all of which may still be preventable by sufficiently rapid reductions in carbon emissions from the combustion of fossil fuel. It is unfair that the present generation should incur as heavy a burden as it does of seizing the last opportunity for prevention of disasters like large sea-level rises, but the unfairness is not sufficient to make the burden unreasonable to bear, especially since it is not in fact as heavy as often believed.
O presente artigo visa a fazer algumas anotações sobre educação, emancipação e crítica social no pensamento de Theodor W. Adorno. Esses temas se relacionam direta e indiretamente nos escritos de Adorno e assinalam a coerência epistemológica da sua teoria crítica em relação a ambos. Desse modo, a questão que colocamos é a seguinte: como compreender a tensão presente entre as necessidades de uma educação para a emancipação e as condições para efetivá-la? Essa questão nos encaminha para outra: é possível relacionar, nos textos adornianos, uma perspectiva de se pensar a educação para a emancipação, articulada a uma crítica social no contexto atual? Primeiramente, fazemos uma breve incursão no que consiste o pensamento contra a barbárie em Adorno, sobretudo, a partir do sentido de Auschwitz como símbolo da relação entre civilização e barbárie que o autor faz. Num segundo momento, nos confrontamos com a questão da formação cultural na Teoria da Semiformação, cujo escopo do texto é apontar os limites da formação cultural e consequentemente os limites da educação no âmbito do capitalismo avançado. Por fim, pretendemos discutir a ideia de "crítica social" em Adorno, articulada aos temas anteriores, isto é, apontar algumas ponderações para uma educação contra a barbárie e a semiformação frentes aos desafios impostos pela sociedade atual.
Este artigo analisa a crítica de Adorno à ontologia de Heidegger. Para tal, utiliza como leitmotiv a interpretação heideggeriana de Kant. Procuraremos mostrar que para Adorno a edificação da ontologia fundamental a partir da filosofia de Kant é uma interpretação indevida desta. Por fim, procura apontar uma possível saída na filosofia de Adorno para o problema da necessidade de fundamentação do discurso filosófico. Tal saída passa pela constatação da importância da arte para a construção da universalidade na filosofia.
The subject matter of this article is Axel Honneth’s theory of recognition as it has been exposed in his more recent book, Das Recht der Freiheit. Throughout the paper his attempts to describe injustices within modern capitalist societies using the notions of pathologies and anomie will be analyzed and criticized, especially from the viewpoint of their inability to deal with processes and contexts of disrecognition (Aberkennung). With help of this category, Honneth’s diagnosis regarding the moral progress in modern societies, as well as his notion of second order disorders, as injustices will be confronted and, hopefully, complemented.
Part VI of our series on ISIS : "Blogforum 'Kalifat des Terrors: Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven auf den Islamischen Staat".
In 2014, two insurgency organisations stood out by their expansion, success and brutality: The Islamic State (IS) and Boko Haram (BH). The former emerged from the conflicts in Syria and Iraq and became a major actor in the Middle East, its influence reaching beyond the borders of its self-proclaimed “caliphate”, while the latter spread its violence throughout north-eastern Nigeria, spilling over into Cameroon, Chad and Niger. Because of their still growing success, many wonder about a possible partnership between IS and BH. To this I answer that there is a connection, but no partnership. Currently, any evidence suggesting a partnership is circumstantial at best...
Part V of our series on ISIS : "Blogforum 'Kalifat des Terrors: Interdisziplinäre Perspektiven auf den Islamischen Staat".
Since 2003, several organizations in the Arab world swore allegiance to Osama Bin Laden and al-Qaida and became part of what was been called “al-Qaeda’s affiliate network”. The emergence of al-Qaeda groups in Saudi Arabia 2003, Iraq 2004, Algeria 2007 and Yemen 2009 convinced many supporters and enemies that there was a truly global network of jihadist groups at work, commanded and controlled by the al-Qaeda leadership in Pakistan.
However, the reality was a lot more complicated. Far from being subordinate to Osama Bin Laden and Aiman al-Zawahiri, these organizations were not willing to submit to al-Qaeda command and control. Their relationship with “al-Qaeda central” was rather an alliance between independent partners of different strength. Although the al-Qaeda leadership sometimes influenced decisions taken by the regional groupings, there are numerous examples of “affiliates” ignoring its advice even regarding strategic issues.
Ebola in Liberia, Sierra Leone und Guinea; Boko Haram in Nigeria; Revolution in Burkina Faso. Politische Entwicklungen in Westafrika sind Teil der täglichen Berichterstattung in Deutschland. Diese Ereignisse bieten Anlass, sich mit den politischen Strukturen und potentiellen Entwicklungen der Regime in Westafrika zu beschäftigen. In fünf westafrikanischen Ländern sind 2015 Präsidentschaftswahlen geplant. Nigeria macht am 28. März den Anfang. Es folgen dann Togo (Mitte April), Burkina Faso, Guinea und Côte d’Ivoire (alle im Oktober).
Dieser Beitrag ist der Beginn einer vierteiligen Serie zu diesen Wahlen. Im ersten Teil werden allgemeine Trends der Regimeentwicklung in Westafrika vorgestellt und eine Analyse der Situation in Nigeria präsentiert. Im zweiten Teil geht es dann um die Wahlen in Togo, im dritten um die Wahlen im Oktober und schließlich im letzten Teil um einen Vergleich der fünf Wahlprozesse.
