Denken over geloven

Willem Drees
- AUP Wetenschappelijk
- 15 September 2023
- 9789464561999
Vanwege de scheiding van kerk en staat werd in de negentiende eeuw in openbare universiteiten kerkelijke theologie vervangen door godsdienstfilosofie. Als venster op het denken over geloven gebruikt Willem B. Drees,
de laatste hoogleraar godsdienstwijsbegeerte in Leiden, werk van zijn voorgangers. In de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw dachten zij houvast te kunnen vinden in het redelijk denken, in kennis van de godsdiensten of hun eigen geloof. Na de Eerste Wereldoorlog wordt geloof
gezien als een keuze voor vertrouwen op de zin van het Geheel. Recenter zien we agnostische terughoudendheid die religieus en wetenschappelijk wordt gemotiveerd. Een geladen zwijgen.

Genocide of thought

Bisrat Woldemichael Handiso

Bisrat Woldemichael Handiso (1983) is an Ethiopian journalist who worked as an editor for different local newspapers. He was one of the founders of the Ethiopian Journalists Forum (EJF), an independent association made up of largely young journalists who advocate for greater press freedom in his country. In this function he ran trainig workshops and discussions on press freedom, visited journalist in prison and hospital and facilitated medical assistance for them. EJF was accused of being an illegal organisation associated with terrorism. Woldemichael Handiso was persecuted by the Ethiopian secret service and decided to save his life by fleeing to Nairobi, Kenya where he has received refugee status.

This essay tells the sad story of the Ethiopian media which is faced - after a spell of press freedom and freedom of speech - with prosecutoin, often based on false accusations. The victims are brave journalists and media publishers who were detained or fled Ehtiopia, so that they can continue reporting about the government's violation of human rights. The author's main message is that a government which doesn't respect media freedom, blocks a country's development in the broadest sense of the term.

Annihilation / Likvidacija

Tomislav Kezharovski

The Macedonian authorities use very heavy-handed methods to crush criticism and investigations into political corruption. Free expression is under increasing threat. More than half of Macedonia's citizens are scared to openly express their opinions. Journalists are pushed into self-censorship fearing that telephones and emails are monitored.
The case known as `Likvidacija', Macedonian for `Annihilation' gives a breathtaking example of power abuse as on May 2013 the investigating journalist Tomislav Kezharovski (1965) is arrested by special forces and sued for an article he wrote in 2008. Despite the absence of any evidence that he violated any law, Kezharovski was sentenced to four and a half years in prison. After spending five months in jail, in cramped and unsanitary conditions, and without access to medical treatment, he was released into house arrest pending the outcome of his appeal. As in January 2015 his sentence was reduced to two years, he was arrested again to serve the remaining five months. Widespread domestic and international protests, by hundreds of journalists and activists led to Kezharovski's release. This essay describes from experience about the lawlessness of the system and the unimaginable prison conditions in present Macedonia.

Speaking in silence

Bui Thanh Hieu
- Querido Fosfor

- 9789462251656
In the holiday paradise Vietnam, social media are allowed only to provide and exchange personal information. Bloggers and cyberdissidents who dare to question the government's legitimacy or domestic policies are ruthlessly suppressed.
Political blogger Bui Thanh Hieu (1972) nevertheless uses the Internet to criticize politically hot topics, such as Vietnam's territorial claims within China as well as its handling of land disputes with the Catholic Church. In response to this, Hieu was arrested, his computers confiscated. The license for his Internet café in Hanoi was revoked. Hieu persisted however: his blog was being read by up to 15,000 visitors per day. Because of his commitment, he was arrested and detained on numerous occasions. At the invitation of the city of Weimar, Germany, he was finally able to leave the country. There he finished Speaking in Silence. In this short story he laments, with humour and irony, the behaviour of civil servants of the special judicial, administrative and technological strike force, who control online information.

Drugs for the mind

Sofie Sun
- PixelPerfect Publications

- 9789462251632
In the eyes of the Chinese authorities books are too often Drugs for the Mind. Sofie Sun (1986) chose this remarkable description as the title of her investigation into censorship and literature in the People's Republic of China. She interviewed representatives of three groups of authors who each have their own view about censorship: writers with no official status living and working in the People's Republic of China, writers in exile, and those who are members of the Chinese Writers Association. By telling the stories about these writers, she sketches a portrayal of censorship and self-censorship in the People's Republic of China.

Sofie Sun was born in the People's Republic of China and came to the Netherlands in 2007, where she has lived ever since. She holds a BA and an MA in Dutch literature from Leiden University. She has translated a range of Dutch titles into Chinese. She will soon complete and defend her doctoral dissertation `Dutch literature in Chinese translation, 1961-2010'.

Kidnapped

Dina Meza
- Querido Fosfor
- 3 Oktober 2017
- 9789462251649
Freedom of expression in Honduras has been kidnapped. Those who are afraid of the truth attempt to imprison it in the depths of the earth. Kidnapped seeks to expose the problems for freedom of expression in journalism and literature in Honduras, the forms of censorship that have been introduced to conceal the truth, but also the creativity of Hondurans who refuse to be defeated in the face of this oppressive system.
Kidnapped describes how the Honduran state, responsible for protecting this right, essential for democracy, has both in the past and present placed obstacles in the paths of those who decide to defy censorship, with harmful and even fatal consequences.

The Honduran journalist and human rights defender Dina Meza (1963) is active on the field of freedom of writing in different ways. She is currently President of PEN Honduras, part of PEN International, and director of the pasosdeanimalgrande.com digital newspaper which covers freedom of expression issues and the general human rights
situation in Honduras. Dina Meza received Amnesty International UK's Journalism
Under Threat Award in 2007 and the PEN International/Oxfam Novib Freedom of Expression award in 2014. Also in 2014, she was one of Reporters without Borders' 100 Information Heroes and a nominee for the Index on Censorship Freedom of Expression Awards.
