Incident Naipaul or intellectual Bigotry

Here, in Beijing to sit in my room V.S. Sourness is a different read on the discussions conducted in Istanbul Naipaul. Another critical moment where the intellectual, yet another Nobel Prize winner, attracting a prison sentence of ten years. Liu Shaobo'nun not approve of what you say or even represented; Naipaul'u approve of most of the time, such as reading. However, both a critical intellectual. Intellectual fashions or water leads to political despotism despotism and self-interest is not nothing but their voice against traditions of courage to show subtraction. Naipaul'a Liu's imprisonment for ill-treatment even if no intention of making a comparison between these two cases, the things we encounter, critical reasoning, democracy and basic human rights of the opposition, inspired by faith, in the name of political stability or the suppression of cultural istisnacılık oriented, have a tendency to increase the effectiveness of the global as I want to mention the fact.

These two cases, there is nothing new. Critical intellectual endeavor is always political pressure and cultural bigotry (especially the religious variety) have been vulnerable to. Printing, took different forms in different historical contexts. Of our time, intellectual freedom, rational thought and areas of cultural democracy has been a century of struggle, who want to downgrade the achievements of a unique form of anti-entelektüalizm. Observed to return back to pay attention to this global need: the Bush gang is now in the U.S. have been caricatured in the form of Sarah Palin, the so-called Confucius Institutes in China, Confucius işportacılarına cartoon, Islamic and Hindu holders, they claim that they represent has become a caricature of a complex of traditions probes with the likes ...

Critical intellectuals are already enough pressure to be painful to see. All that makes them even more bitter, partly critical intellectuals, all of which play a role in bringing on the agenda. Naipaul is a typical example of incident. Naipaul'u for the first time, many do not comply with the intentions of the author of the post-colonial criticism has become one of the basic texts of "Orientalism" thesis, entitled Let come to a location or to effectively dealt with Edward Said. "Orientalism" and the thought of the Enlightenment critique of sources, post-colonial critique of European centrism place in the discourse of "new colonialism" and the post-colonial critique of capitalism had played an important role in the early instances of the quit. Said Naipaul'u criticized because of representations of Islam. He pointed out, such as Said, who was no longer part of the global intellectual heritage (including critical thinking, rational) rather depended on the values of enlightened Europe. There was certainly more criticism of Islam as well as the claim. European / American intellectual and cultural hegemony criticism, Islam, Hinduism or other cultural traditions inherited from the past (for Confucianism, and needless to say these days are also applicable to Christianity) to be plundered gelmediğinin was aware of the fact that should be ignored.

In the 1980s, perhaps earlier, a real critique of imperialism, including the criticism of Eurocentrism, has been usurped by the intellectual right. 1980s, the so-called "cultural return" is responsible for both right and left. Right (the so-called socialist states returned to their own revolutionary history, including their faces), a critique of Eurocentrism, cultural problems, abstracting them from economic and political issues of sovereignty, crave to be part of the globalized capitalist economy is in danger of dissolution for the fictitious identities, cultural traditions, finding re-sectarian kültürelciliğe used as an excuse to give life. Wave on the right in the face of this intellectual left, in embarrassing contradictions remained, and remains connected to the hand lever. Centrist critique of hegemony in Europe, the European centrism wipes it had been established in order to recover the cultural heritage from oblivion, not to şeyleştirmek them. The aim of this cultural heritage, intellectuals such as Frantz Fanon çalışmlarında as can be seen clearly in the democracy, freedom, social / economic justice carried out for the revolutionary struggles, new ways of thinking about the future of humanity açmaktı. In the 1980s, these efforts have left behind when you go fall down the right-wing identity politics and a lot of bigotry kültürcülük encouraging was controlled.

Certainly should not be ignored altogether with prejudices about Islam Naipaul, left, has long refused to accept that the post-colonial state, with a keen grasp of a great writer. Reddedenlar ideas altogether, even if you get a little respect for critical thinking, if any, to tell things that they do not wish to hear the author of the crucifixion and obstructing sakınmalı germekten. It seems that Naipaul has decided not to attend the meeting in Istanbul. The shame of it, is dominant in Turkey, apparently belongs to an intellectual air.

Hegel, Karl Marx, referring to a time in history that took place two times, the tragedy of the first expedition, wrote that ikincininse comedy. Orientalist views of Islam in order to confirm that "orientalism", as there placement is quite funny. Faşistce suppression of those who engage in critical thinking, they want to suppress the charge of doing the same thing, but just not funny, tragic twice.
