It trucide it tabasse and it is bleeding

It is all the time. No need to search for a fact, one day, a date. Simply turn on. Web TV, radio or paper, violence arises every minute. Here, Kalashnikovs gunfire near an armoured van to the explosive. There, a student stabbed, here a prof. elsewhere, a judge flingué Court, children killed, several trapped cars. Regardless of the weapons, the diversity of the target, the disparate reasons. It trucide, it tabasse and it is bleeding. Every day, everywhere.

This is in any case the impression that we all have. Whether these images correspond to what reality is more difficult. Effective propagation of abuse Media overexposure Mutation of our sensibilities No doubt is there convergence and weaving of these separate records, but the proportions are still poorly known, undecided figures battles. Because you can always challenge the findings without nuances: it is not true that the developed societies are more violent than that of antiquity or the middle ages. These disputes seem to turn in a vacuum.

However, each has the sense that significant changes are underway in our relationship to violence. This makes them difficult to identify, it is their double-sided. Thus violence subject, at the same time, greater intolerance and an increasing indifference. Any war appears to become indefensible, any body punishment is abhorrent, "care", which is taking care of others, is becoming the impassable of our time horizon. However, simultaneously, the "serial killers" are a tobacco and one massacre in everything - goes into video games. The same girl who was in his room a poster of Gandhi blithely iron a few dozens of electronic humanoid several times per day.

Other interference affects the former cleavage between legitimate violence and unlawful use of force. The old analysis of Max Weber ("the State has the monopoly of legitimate violence in a given territory") seems to become less and less audible: State violence tends to become suspicious, at the same time where any transgression tends to become more sympathetic. They urge that Georges Sorel, another ancestor, a beautiful days before him. It is likely that one will see flourish, repainted, its old distinction of the bad state violence, supposedly controlling and persecuting, opposed to good proletarian violent, destructive of strictures and Liberator. It is sufficient to substitute for the former workers some new heroes. Green, humanitarian activists and alters are already on the ranks.

Finally, one cannot forget the growing overlap of the virtual and the real. The distinction becomes, for many people, less and less clear. The borders between fiction and reality are becoming porous, it confuses the drama and life, images require actions. Force slaughter aliens pixilated, some eventually eliminate their similar. The border may not be always tight between the "real" world, that we have in hand, and the video game joysticks, when violence rule sovereign. Formally condemned violence is also encouraged of all sides.

The solution, if it exists, seems not politically correct. This would indeed look opposite the actual violence and the inevitable conflicts. Should assume that there is violence in the world, and put it to its rightful place. Sum, it may be that less naïve optimism, but pacifism, blind violence can paradoxically, make the world a more livable. Instead of being ubiquitous but denied, elusive and diffuse, the violence would be visible and circumscribed. Neither evil nor saving, it would appear again for what it is: a case simply human, too human. But real.
