>> Depuis les plusieurs assassinats de blogueurs laïques et athées, beaucoup de manifestations ont eu lieu au Bangladesh. Ca n'a pas été tellement évoqué dans les médias mais ça commence à sérieusement bouger là-bas, il y a beaucoup de voix pour s'indigner mais aussi pour poser la question du sécularisme et de l'intégrisme religieux.
Extrait du Guardian pour ceux qui lisent en anglais:
“There is a rationalist intellectual tradition that goes back to the 19th century,” says Dr Sumit Ganguly, professor of Indian Civilisations at Indiana University. “There was already a cultural consensus about an openness to the world, a certain cosmopolitanism, reflected in the work of prominent writers.” But, he explains, this secular tradition did not exist in isolation. “There was always a strain of bigotry, of closed-mindedness – Hindus and Muslims were contemptuous of each other. During Bangladesh’s earlier heritage as East Pakistan, various forms of bigotry were actively promoted by the state.”
