1. Has Serbia to renounce its heritage for the sake of EU accession?
2. Multiculturalism only screens globalization.
3. Multiculturalism failed in Germany because
Turks refused to get integrated.
4. Instead of conflicts we, in Vojvodina, should
harness our energy towards creativity. We are only wasting our
energy on the stories about multiculturalism and human rights.
5. Why putting emphasis on differences? Why after
all should there be the Pride Parade?
6. By staging a gay parade homosexuals only
further incite people's animosity.
7. In Serbia minorities can officially use their
mother tongues. What would happen should Turks in Germany or England
demand the official use of their mother tongue?
8. Minorities exercise more rights in Serbia than
anywhere else. For instance, a Slovak in Serbia is entitled to more
rights than in Slovakia.
"Identity: Individual and Collective;
Concepts of Nation and Forms of Nationalism; Patriotism" (Lecturer:
Prof. Djokica Jovanovic)
"What is identity and how is it determined? The
definition itself is not determined affirmatively but negatively. No
identity can be determined without the 'other' (say, you cannot
determine an anti-fascist without a fascist). Though we need the
'other' to determine an identity we are prone to excluding this
'other' in the process. A human being is an ever changing mosaic of
identities."
Some questions and comments made by students:
1. Why placing so much emphasis on reason when a
man, according to Kant, is an irrational being?
2. What is nationalism after all? And what's the
difference between nationalism and patriotism?
3. Fascism has emerged as a leftist organization. |
