"A tolerant society is more likely to engender mutual trust and cooperation. It tends towards a more peaceful society; insofar as we are willing to learn from others, we are more able to negotiate and compromise our differences. In a tolerant society there is thus apt to be less cruelty, hypocrisy, and duplicity, less dogmatism, hatred, and fanaticism..." Paul Kurtz
It is always difficult to speak about nations & nationalism, ethnicity & ethnic processes, religions & languages, etc. In the world full of stereotypes some notions and concepts may be misinterpreted or interpreted in two ways, but the course is over and I am happy with its results proving once more that cultural diversity only enriches our world! Together with my students we visited the national museum of ethnography and natural history at the end of the course. Here are some pictures from our classes and from the museum.
