문명충돌과 빈부충돌

Abstract

문명충돌의 주요 요인가운데 하나가 빈부문제임을 밝히고자 했음.

There are some presumable causes of present global clashes typically representing 9ㆍ11 attacks. A lot of talks focused on the clash of civilization, the Islamic versus the west. Outwardly it could be possible, but inwardly we need more searches to get the definite, more agreeable answer. Therefore this thesis made a focus on the global problem of poverty to get the point. Without solving this globally prevailing poverty, there is no peace on earth. Samuel Huntington suggested intelligently several kinds of clashes of the civilization before 9ㆍ11 attacks. The Islamic world was suspected to be a initiator of possible clashes. After 9ㆍ11 most of American scholars, even Huntington himself, and politicians including President Bush tried to believe these attacks. was not corne from civilization clashes, but from terror against the world peace. President Bush announced publicly Itan, Iraq, and North Kotean 'the axis of evil.' Some scholars like Noam Chomsky are not agreed with this idea. On the contrary, Chomsky called USA a rogue state. This thesis tried to find one of main causes of trouble the world now suffers and especially Islamics anger. The Islamics had their heavy discontents of poverty-ridden situations, lack of freedom and democracy, backwardness of technology development, discrimination by religion etc. The terror could be reptesenting this internal frustrations out to the world, especially to the rich, powerful countries. Of course not every Islamic country is under the povetry. Some countries demonstrated their ability of the economic developments amazingly. But still the poverty is prevailing widely in the Islamic region. Also there is a big gap between the tiches and the pots even domestically. The military Islamic fundamentalists use this discontents as weapon to the west which leans to Israel. To stop terror like 9ㆍ11, the world must have a concern on the discontentment of the poors. Fighting with military, political weapons will result in the destruction, but globally united fighting against the poverty and other discontents with compassionate minds could bring the world peace finally.
