terrosim and internation relationship

International Relationship for the Future

 

Today, there are some ethnic conflict, terrorist incident and genocide all over the world. For example, there is one ethnic conflict in North Ireland. One of the famous terrorist organization (IRA) insist that North Ireland should separate from UK and revert to Republic of Ireland. And they have tried to engage in terrorist activities like a bombing in mall. Furthermore, India, China and Pakistan have a territorial issue in Kashmir. Their armies sometimes crash by border line each other. In turkey, Iran, Iraq, many Kurds has been persecuted, because they are a minority race. In Philippines, they also have much damage from serial terrorism by Grupong Abu Sayyaf and Moro Islamic Liberation Front.

Why do these conflicts exist? It is not easy for us to define only one reason. However, I think that it is had origin in the difference of religion and culture. Religion is very precious. But the bad aspect intend to be exclusive. For example, Christian people do not accept the Koran. On the other hands, Muslim can not also accept that Jesus Christ is son of God. So, they think that he is only a prophet. In addition to that, people who have faith in a monotheistic religion can not understand polytheism.

So, how should we get over this obstacle to understand difference of religion, culture, race their principles and opinion. I think that it is most important thing is education. Unfortunately, we did not have enough chance to study other cultures, because Japan is an island and racially homogeneous countries. And we have few experience to communicate with foreigner. It’s a big problem. Because if we do not have enough knowledge about the foreigners, we intend to make a misunderstanding of them. And we sometimes have prejudice.

Therefore, when we are a student in junior high school, or high school, teachers have to teach other culture for students. If they can, we will learn other people more deeply
