  • In de schaduw van het kwaad

    Eichmann in Jeruzalem

    par Ian Buruma ...
    Vanaf het moment dat Ian Buruma als dertienjarige over de veroordeling van de beruchte SS-functionaris Adolf Eichmann las, heeft het kwaad als fenomeen hem niet meer losgelaten. Hoewel het geweld van de Holocaust het ijkpunt is geworden voor ons hedendaagse begrip van het kwade, ziet Buruma dat er nog veel ontbreekt aan onze opvatting van het kwaad. Hij duikt opnieuw in Hannah Arendts analyse van ... En savoir plus

  • Occidentalism

    The West in the Eyes of Its Enemies

    Twenty-five years ago, Edward Said's Orientalism spawned a generation of scholarship on the denigrating and dangerous mirage of "the East" in the Western colonial mind. But "the West" is the more dangerous mirage of our own time, Ian Buruma and Avishai Margalit argue, and the idea of "the West" in the minds of its self-proclaimed enemies remains largely unexamined and woefully misunderstood. ...
