Religion and State in the European Union
2011
The “crucifix debate” and the full-face veil ban in France are just a few examples from a long list of problems concerning the relations between the religion and the state in the European countries that have involved the European public opinion over the last years. The article aims to present the complex picture of Church-state relations in Europe in the context of the intensification of all-European debate on the place of religion in the European Union. It shows that in spite of the widely recognized secularization thesis in western social sciences most of the European states are the arena of various problems involving the religious dimension and the question about the future role of the r…
Le recherche de l'identité à deux voix : Haroun et Meursault
2017
In his novel entitled The Meursault Investigation (Meursault, contre-enquête) Kamel Daoud shows human weakness and anger against the religion, the same as they are depicted in Albert Camus’s works. His character, Haroun, who is a brother of the Arab killed in The Stranger by Camus, is in the quest for his identity. Being traumatized by his mother’s hold over him, he learns French in order to be able to express his disappointment over the world and his country where he feels as a stranger.
Jānis Pliekšāns’ (Rainis’) “Formula of Happiness”
2020
The article focuses on the analysis of the understanding of “formula of happiness” of Jānis Pliekšāns (Rainis), lawyer, philosopher and the most famous Latvian poet. Rainis’ works were created at the end of the 19th – beginning of the 20th centuries. This is the time when the legal consciousness of the Latvian State was evolving and the Republic of Latvia was proclaimed (1918). Rainis’ views in the philosophy of law were significantly influenced by the theory of Marxism and the fight for rights described by Rudolf von Ihering. Rainis’ “formula of happiness” means interminable self-improvement in the struggle for personal happiness with the aim of leading the whole humanity towards happiness…
Fanonian analysis of racism and postcolonial structures of othering
2023
The paper explores how boundaries affect the search for identity in the context of racism and colonialism. Colonized individuals often experience a sense of alienation and inferiority caused by the limitations imposed by colonial power structures, leading to a quest for personal identity. However, the binary division between the colonizer and colonized affects everyone involved, making searching for personal identity more complex and reinforcing systemic racism. The first section of the article examines how race, a socially constructed concept, plays a crucial role in defining the difference between oneself and others, impo-sing structures of othering based on Fanonian analysis. The second …
Liturgias de Buñuel
2004
Más que una beligerancia contra la religión, el ejemplo examinado en este trabajo revela una articulación interna con la liturgia. Porque líturgia significa universo simbólico rítualizado y sobre dicho ritual construye el perverso a su vez otro ritual, cierto que de signo distinto. La perversión construye escenas, observadas por alguien que erotiza los objetos, pero, en general, se rige por una monotonía que nadie como Sade supo exponer con tanta contundencia. Pues bien, Buñuel construye estas escenas sobre escenas prevías, sin necesidad de desmontarlas, advirtiendo una sorprendente fidelidad a su función simbólica. El hecho de que sobre ellas surja el deseo o que el deseo exija como requis…
