Barbara Walters is an academic prophetess worth listening to. Excellent research presentation
EXTREMELY ENLIGHTENING!
The talk is great, but at some point there is someone near a second microphone (camera-person??) that keeps deep sniffling into their hot mic starting with their sneeze at 28:31. Please sound edit that out. It's pretty distracting. The sound needs to be better in general. There is a lot of reverb, is she mic'ed?
starts from the beginning with the bracelet rattling and then a great big sniff. urrgh
Barbara says: "They do seem to be more committed to justice - to order - and you have to make a choice." Fair and accurate. And then on the slide "This doesn't mean that ideology and religion don't matter." But then she says, "It's not religion per se, as much as it is the political and economic conditions that exist there." I suppose if you have your doctorate in political science then everything is a nail. The political and economic conditions are an emergent property of the belief system of any given civilization first. Then follows, how they maturate socially over time within that paradigm. This lecture was informative if not framed from a narrow perspective of political science and the balance between economics and infrastructure. Unfortunately, an analysis of all religions respective to their corresponding 'social qualities' is extremely revealing in this area of discussion. Her history portion should focus on those elements as well. And here’s why. For some inexplicable reason, humans have been determined to discover or invent some sort of deity or god-like figure since the written record; probably beyond. For each of those there has been some idiosyncratic disposition that the adherents collectively follow and descend into their offspring. How people believe determines how they invest. That’s economics. How and why they build - infrastructure. How to make laws - order and justice, and so on. To that end - religion is the most important primary factor in analysis. Alternatives to a resolution will just wander off into the same repetition that has been going on for thousands of years. John Lennon summed up the actual real solution ~ in fact - Imagine. No heaven, no hell, no countries, no religion, and the world will be as one. Good luck. To tackle this I believe Barbara needs an anthropologist, theologian, systems engineer, and historian. But mostly the understanding of historical events between the primary three religions and their various factors (splits in practice), those being Judaism, Islam, and Christianity. And here it is in a nutshell. No one in the field of any credible science is going to recognize that these people have unwavering faith in their individual systems of prophetic outcome. How can you instill the concept of peace when everyone’s god is going to win? None of them are ever going to drop this issue. As long as the issue exist, so does civil war. Unless of course, god shows up and settles the matter. Since this is beyond acceptable academic deliberation (we just won’t go there), the root cause of the problem is never addressed and the aforementioned repetition feeds on itself until - well forever.
Excellent talk!
When she says 'declining for the last 800 years is there something about the 1200s(?l that was a turning point?
Excellent! Thank you. Is a transcript of the conversation available?
She’s written a great book. How Civil Wars Start: And How To Stop Them
Couldn't UC San Diego with its massive budget do any better at recording this lecture?
"We have very few mass killings. " WHAT????
Don't think loan nutters think mob mas killings and pogroms (not just the mass murder of Jews, but events like the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre, or the Rawandan genocide, or the excesses of Daesh against non-muslim minorities).
The person work the cold should have stayed home … very gross to listen to mucus in someone nostrils ..
