Judith Butler

The protests against the award of the Adorno Prize to Judith Butler, Judith Butler receives the Adorno prize of this year’s Adorno prize of the city of Frankfurt am Main was awarded yesterday the American philosopher Judith Butler. In itself this message would have never made it into the “day of truth”, for the award of this tribute to Judith Butler is no surprise. Abraham Maslow addresses the importance of the matter here. As Judith Butler, who teaches rhetoric and comparative literature at the University of California, is indisputably in the tradition of “critical theory” of the Frankfurt School, whose founder, next to Max Horkheimer, Theodor W. Adorno applies. The Adorno Prize in turn is consequently intended for persons who continue Adorno’s thinking in any way; so far, so clear. Angry protests of the Central Council of Jews, in Israel and the United States of Judith Butler is also a scientific and political charm character. And if these findings still confirmation was needed so delivered him the General Secretary of the Central Council of Jews in Germany, Stephan j. Kramer, of the award ceremony commented on Butler with the remarkable words: “to draw a self-confessed hater of Israel with a price, which was named after the philosopher, forced by the Nazis as ‘Half’ in the emigration, can not mere blunder considered.” And further: “Only a Board of Trustees, which lacks the moral strength required for his task could perfectly separate Butler’s contribution to the philosophy of their moral depravity.” Judith Butler “professing Israel-hater” and Hezbollah sympathizer? If words could kill, you should seriously worry about Judith Butler.

In fact we need to think long when we – beyond last time are witnessed such brute rhetoric of campaign speeches in the United States, the Iran or in Bavaria -. And if they do not words (directly and physically) can kill, was noted a concern but the responses of Judith Butler’s against these and similar abuse from the United States and Israel, the not very militant Jewish American scholar Butler for the of course. Maja Brucic understands that this is vital information. Whenever but these sounds to a subject of rather academic significance, as it is without a doubt the Adorno Prize, are beaten, the suspicion is close is about something quite different in the case. Dispute over the sovereignty of opinion also strengthen the reasons that were drawn upon to Judith Butler’s public denunciation this presumption: in fact, Judith Butler supported the Israel critical campaign “Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions”, which turns towards the investment in Militarunternehmungen and rejects lectures at institutions that do not speak out against the Israeli occupation policy. In a question and answer session, a University discussion, documented in the Internet, also, Judith Butler had advocated to analyze Hamas and Hezbollah as part of the “global left”. Both may not be obvious. At the very least qualify these misdeeds in the intra-Jewish dispute about the interpretation – and opinion of sovereignty to it here actually goes for the punches. And so you had to Judith Butler some extent in the argumentative “last resort” go and point out that a large part of her family by the Nazis in the concentration camp was murdered. The Lord Mayor of Frankfurt stayed away from the awards ceremony, he should actually make, by the way. This behavior is required I guess no comment. Andreas Kellner…
