Найти книгу: "Transforming Terror"

This inspired collection offers a new paradigm for moving the world beyond violence as the first, and often only, response to violence. Through essays and poetry, prayers and meditations, <i>Transforming Terror</i> powerfully demonstrates that terrorist violence—defined here as any attack on unarmed civilians—can never be stopped by a return to the thinking that created it. A diverse array of contributors—writers, healers, spiritual and political leaders, scientists, and activists, including Desmond Tutu, Huston Smith, Riane Eisler, Daniel Ellsberg, Amos Oz, Fatema Mernissi, Fritjof Capra, George Lakoff, Mahmoud Darwish, Terry Tempest Williams, and Jack Kornfield—considers how we might transform the conditions that produce terrorist acts and bring true healing to the victims of these acts. Broadly encompassing both the Islamic and Western worlds, the book explores the nature of consciousness and offers a blueprint for change that makes peace possible. From unforgettable firsthand accounts of terrorism, the book draws us into awareness of our ecological and economic interdependence, the need for connectedness, and the innate human capacity for compassion.

See on toestisundinud lugu Anna Sundbergist, noorest healjarjel keskklassi rootsi naisest, kes liitub dzihadistidega ja jaab nendega16 aastaks. Tema lugu saab alguse 1994. aastal uksikust salafistidegrupeeringust Rootsis. Naine jargneb oma abikaasale, kelle USA kuulutab hiljemulemaailmselt tagaotsitavaks terroristiks, ning satub nii Tsetseeniasasuvasse salajasse treeninglaagrisse kui ka Bashar al-Assadi vanglasusteemi.Anna Sundbergi tunnistus on erakordne ja seda ka rahvusvahelises plaanis. Islamoli esialgu naise jaoks taiesti uus viis maailma tolgendada. Ta oli volutudkenadest usule puhendunud meestest, keda nais huvitavat rohkem naiste sisemineilu kui valjanagemine. Ent Anna Sundberg pigistas silmad kinni paljudeselliste asjade ees, mis oli meeste kaitumises ebainimlikku ja isegikuritegelikku. Vaid moned mehed, ja peaaegu mitte ukski naine, on julgenud voi saanudavalikult raakida dzihadistide igapaevaelust. Lugu, mille Anna raamatukaasautori Jesper Huori abil esitab, on korraga intrigeeriv ja hirmutav. See ontema tee ekstremismi ja sealt valja. Ta soovib oma jutustusega naidata, et omaelu on voimalik muuta ja inimesed ei pea elama salaparase plekiga omaminevikus. „Ma tahan, et mu lapsed voiksid olla minu ule uhked, et julgesinseda teha,” kirjutab Anna.
