Did the Arabs Injustice Huntington?

Samuel Huntington is the author of the word entitled The Clash of Civilizations? which discusses or narrates concepts that explicates world government. According to Huntington, international conflicts that concerns politics may be reassert by reasonable arguments or issues that be left unresolved. However, Huntington reiterates that these particular conflicts ar founded on underlying issues or matters that naturally lead to political conflicts that is culture.According to Huntington, culture is threatening to divide nations instead of leading the way to erect unity and oneness in handling international problems or issues, since culture is the main(a) source of contradictory differences and conflicts that do non provide opportunities for nations to meet in middle ground. As a designates of representing concrete structures of culture, Huntingon has labeled seven civilizations being the Confucian, Hindu, Islamic, Japanese, Latin American, Slavic-Orthodox, and western. On e may notice that Huntington left out the African populace as one of the identified civilizations.This is because Huntington was unsure about the state of the African nation, that is, whether it meets the standards and guidelines of development that is attributed to a mindful and responsive civilization. The classification of Huntington of the world population into civilizations was primary influenced by prominent religious affiliations that are a major identifier of culture. Personally, I would have to agree with Huntington on this matter, since I sincerely believe that pagan affiliations among individuals are largely influenced by the religious beliefs that they share.Huntington believes that the strong ties of individuals to their culture and worship which grants them a sense of egotism or identity as an individual and as a nation, is difficult to break apart when it comes to promoting rational politics and relations that necessitates the disregard of personal worldviews as di rected by a civilizations culture. However, Huntingtons establishment of seven civilizations has also been a source of contradicting information that he has presented in his name since the classification of civilizations is complicated and inconsistent.Moreover, Huntington mentioned that differences between people, as supported by his theory of the seven civilizations in the world, do not necessarily mean that there will be conflict, and conflict does not necessarily mean that it will lead to violence. However, the gist of Huntingtons article clearly displays how differences, particularly in culture and religion, is the primary cause of conflict and violence around the world as he studied the Cold state of war and the succeeding world events after it.These contradicting thoughts that Huntington shared in his work, he also contradicted by stating how culture and religion are two important pointors in promoting unity. In this case, Huntington mentioned how non-Arab Muslims were abl e to unite as one patronage differences of culture and religion and through shared culture and religion. Upon the establishment of the seven civilizations, Huntington keep to discuss assorted historical evidences that support his claim. This particular issue led to the discussion of the politics between the Arabs and the West which raise violent reactions from the former.Huntington wrote that at present time, the major players in world politics are the West and the Arab nation. disrespect internal clashes between different factions or minority groups within the Arab nations, Huntington believes that in the end, it will still learn a way to reconcile differences among them and be counter-reactive to the West. Although the statements of Huntington caused a stir within the Arab nation, I believe that Huntington was not pressing violent, hateful, derogatory, or discriminatory issues against the Arab nation.Huntington magnified his discussion on the issue between the Arabs and the W est since it is the genuine international issue or problem the power struggle between the two civilizations which people ofttimes hear in the news. Although majority of Huntingtons arguments were based on theories, I believe that everything he utter were reflective of the current situations, straying away from the assumption that he wrote the article to present his prejudiced or biased sentiments against the Arab nation.His article was based on decades of historical evidences that created an obvious pattern relaying motivations of war in the past, which was hike supported by the 9/11 incident that led to the destruction of the Twin Towers in invigorated York. Huntington was simply observant and articulates enough to present a logical explanation of countless conflicts between nations, which may or may not have some truth to it. Frankly, I believe that major truths are embedded within theories, especially those that lend themselves to conspiratorial issues.Setting my personal op inions aside, Huntingtons criticisms of other(a) civilization validates the fact that he was not anti-Arab, but simple a man who wanted to illustrate world politics under a cultural context. Huntington criticized the immorality and hypocrisy of the West, stating how the Western civilization has achieved its superintendentiority over other civilizations due to its mindful submission to organized violence in order to achieve its goals and objectives. Moreover, Huntington reiterates that the West does not promote universalism but rather act for world domination.Moreover, Huntington believes that Christian views which originated from the West could not have influenced numerous people around the world if Christians had not come into contact with individuals from the East. Huntington then criticized Western Christianity and then continued to criticize Western Europe. According to Huntington, some of the concepts of politics and economics claimed by the Western Civilization, particularly Western Europe, did not actually originate from it but from non-Western civilizations in other parts of the world.In general, Huntingtons article was a seemingly balanced representation of his theories on how international conflicts, then and now, were products of cultural and religious differences. The criticisms he constitute were not one-sided, attacking the Middle East or the West, or any other civilization for that matter, solely. In fact, Huntingtons theories were open discussions and arguments about the Arab and Western aspects. Huntington acknowledged how the West is trying to portray a super power estate that works to promote unity, solidarity, democracy, diplomacy, peace, and such.This, he identified as the Western perspective. However, Huntington argued that the Wests interests are politically motivated, geared toward staying in power and obtaining control of the majority populations. On one hand, Huntington discussed how the Arab populations are trying to overthrow th e influence of the West in their land, moving them to resort to threats and violence toward non-Arab and Western nations. For Huntington, the Arab perspective is just patterned after the us-versus-them mentality.
