RECONCILING WITH RECONCILIATION - UKRAINE
Back

As a member of the Board of the International Institute of Ethics and Contemporary Issues in Kiev- Ukraine, Dr. Alam participated in a panel with the prominent sociologist, Jose Casanova on dialogue and conflict.

During the Institute’s board meeting Dr. Alam’s presentation titled “Reconciling with Reconciliation: A Lebanese Reflection in Ukraine,” expressed some skepticism with respect to what he called the “dialogue industry” and argued for the importance of inner-dialogue and inner-peace as the first step in promoting dialogue with the other.

He also presented examples of attempts in Lebanon to break those cycles of violence that prevent it from fulfilling its historic vocation to be a land of peaceful co-existence among many different religious and cultural groups.
