Synopsis "INDIA (in Spanish)"

Mientras Estados Unidos centra su atención en la militanciareligiosa y el terrorismo en Oriente Medio, en otra parte del mundo la democracia se ve asediada por el extremismo religioso, Tal y como nos revela Martha C. Nussbaum en este penetrante examen de la Indiaactual, las fuerzas de la derecha hindú constituyen una inquietanteamenaza para sus tradiciones democráticas y la laicidad delEstado.



Desde mucho antes de los disturbios de Gujarat del año 2002 en los que casi dos mil musulmanes fueron asesinados por extremistas hindúes, la derecha hindú ha ido adquiriendo cada vezmayor poder hasta llegar a amenazar las prácticas constitucionales dela democracia, la tolerancia y el pluralismo religioso que tanto hancostado conseguir en la India. Bajo el liderazgo político del PartidoBharatiya Janata, la derecha hindú busca la subordinación de otrosgrupos religiosos y ha dirigido su particular crítica vitriólicacontra los musulmanes, a los que considera demonios que necesitan serpurgados. El futuro dista mucho de estar asegurado, y el extremismo yel exclusivismo hindúes se mantienen como un preocupante obstáculopara la armonía en el sur de Asia.



Nussbaum, cuyalarga relación profesional con la India la convierte en una excelenteguía de su historia actual, sostiene que la mayor amenaza no provienede un choque entre civilizaciones, como algunos creen, sino del choque interior de cada uno de nosotros entre la agresividad autoprotectoray la capacidad de convivir en el mundo. La historia de la India es uncuento político con moraleja para todos los Estados democráticos quese esfuerzan por actuar con responsabilidad en un mundo cada vez máspeligroso.

Martha Craven Nussbaum (New York, USA, 1947) studied at her hometown university and earned a PhD in Law and Ethics at Harvard in 1975. Founder and coordinator of the Center for Comparative Constitutionalism, she is currently the Ernst Freund Distinguished Service Professor of Law and Ethics at the Department of Philosophy, the Law School, and the Divinity School at the University of Chicago, after having taught at Harvard, Brown, and Oxford.

Considered one of the most innovative and influential philosophical voices in the current landscape and a defender of the role of the humanities in education, Nussbaum advocates in her work a universal conception of women's rights that can overcome the limits of cultural relativism. Her theories start from the conviction that people who understand the good differently can agree on some universal ethical principles that are applicable wherever there is a situation of inequality and injustice. She has also proposed a constitutional and political framework respectful of local traditions and institutions that can be translated into political objectives in specific contexts, laying the groundwork for ethically justifying development aid.

Between 1986 and 1993, she was a research advisor at the World Institute for Development Economics Research (Helsinki, Finland), which is part of the United Nations University. She has chaired the Committee for International Cooperation and the Committee on the Status of Women, both of the American Philosophical Association. She has been a member of the Council of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences and of the American Council of Learned Societies Union.
