Mario Vargas Llosa and Contemporary Issues

This blog is part of my academic activity. Here we have asked to give our views on contemporary issues. On which Mario Vargas Llosa has also shared his views. To read his views click here.

The word or ideas like liberals, nationalism, populism, greatest challenge to democracy, intellectual honesty, literature and morality, political correctness and freedom all are have many dimension which changes with places and people. Here are my views on this topics.

Liberals are those who think differently then others and there is always resistence front of liberalism and this resisting voice is that much strong that it can suppress the voice of liberals, but the voice of liberals should be respected because the liberals are also part of this society and they just show their freedom of everything which still bind others.

Nationalism as Mario vargos also says that it is racism, to believe that the belongingness of some land or race give you priviledge you started thinking your superiority on others which creates violence. Violence is always harmfull, it doesn't matter that in which form or on what name it is done.

Literature and morality, both are the way different from each other. Literature is at first place only for enjoy though it always have some kind of meaning but it is not neccessory also. If you can't get the meaning but you enjoy it is worth of literature. It is not lecture of saint, it is mainly for pleasure. Morality has its own place in literature, but if it doesn't have it doesn't mean as weak literature.

Thank you.
