Making Statements, Making Histories

Tuesday, 05 August 2008 10:11 Leo Wang Editorials of Interest - Diaxde Volunteers

The history of the Olympic Games is full of boycotts. To call such actions “politicizing” the Games may not be fully accurate. We at Tati Cultural and Educational Foundation and Taiwan February 28^th Movement Net Radio would like to point out that many of these boycotts are justified. They were carried out in order to make a statement about democracy and equality. The ancient Greeks, who conceived the Olympics and who were also pioneers of democracy and democratic ideology, might actually be proud of such actions!

The Danger of Paxism

During the Roman Empire, the Romans came up with a Latin word: “Pax.” On-line dictionary defines this vocabulary as:

1. (Ecclesiastical in bible) Kiss of peace.

2. (with initial capital letter) A period in history marked by the absence of major wars, usually imposed by a pre-dominant nation.

China’s authoritarian expansionism would not stop with Taiwan, President William Lai (賴清德) said yesterday, calling for solidarity among the world’s democracies to check Beijing’s territorial ambitions.

Taiwan is determined to become a decisive force for democracy, peace and prosperity, standing side-by-side with its democratic partners to confront authoritarian expansionism and protect shared values, he told the annual Ketagalan Forum on Indo-Pacific security in Taipei.

Authoritarianism is now a global challenge, Lai said, using as examples Chinese military expansionism, economic coercion and the use of hybrid warfare tactics such as cyberattacks and cognitive warfare.
