h0Ɩ0cαųst Denialism - a new university discipline

  • Editor's note: Questioning any aspect of the gigantic corpus of
    accusations against the Germans grouped under the Newspeak generic of
    "h0Ɩ0cαųst denialism" is emerging as a new university subject.
    Presumably we will see, in the not too distant future, a doctorate
    conferred in "Denialism." One can envision the future curriculum: Bishop
    Williamsonism 101 and David Irvingism 202.

    Can anyone imagine anything so absurd? What if Catholic university
    theology departments created studies in "Immaculate Conception
    Denialism" and linked these to their law schools, as the University of
    Leicester is doing in England?

    This is all about treating the natural human right of skepticism as an
    entymological pathology, as if it were an anomaly -- when the authentic
    anomaly is the imposition of the dogma of h0Ɩ0cαųstianity itself, the
    last truly believed religion in the otherwise agnostic West.

    And what of the denial of the h0Ɩ0cαųsts in Dresden, Nagasaki and Gaza?
    Will these be included or excluded from consideration in the study of
    "genocide denial"?  If I were a betting man, I'd wager they will be
    excluded.

    Certain types of "denial" are perpetrated by the very people seeking to
    establish an exclusive "h0Ɩ0cαųst" mythos limited solely or mainly to
    the sufferings, both real and imagined,  of Judaic persons during World
    War II, an exceptionalism familiar to students of the тαℓмυd and its
    supremacist culture.

    Here's the phantasmagoric press release:

    Workshop: 23 – 24 September 2010, University of Leicester

    Call for Abstracts/Papers Proposals are sought for an interdisciplinary
    research workshop entitled:

     A Contextual View of h0Ɩ0cαųst and Genocide Denial

    h0Ɩ0cαųst and genocide denial are phenomena whose consequences reach far
    beyond the expression of individual opinions. The views of David Irving,
    Nick Griffin or Bishop Richard Williamson tend to reach audiences that
    benefit from denialist arguments for specific political purposes, and
    the consequences of denialism are not confined to the immediate
    discourse.

    Denialism also carries significance for more than one academic
    discipline. Historians are directly affected, as deniers frequently
    claim to carry out "revisionist" historical research against "orthodox"
    interpretations and thereby pose the question whether their conclusions
    merit or indeed require a reaction in serious academic debate.

    To lawyers, denialism raises questions about the limits of freedom of
    speech – particularly when domestic laws are taken into account which
    prohibit certain forms of denialism.

    To political scientists, sociologists or psychologists the motives of
    deniers and the repercussions of their statements are of particular
    importance.

    There is therefore need for a contextual perspective of h0Ɩ0cαųst denial
    which fosters a better understanding of the perspectives of these
    disciplines. The School of Historical Studies (Stanley Burton Centre for
    h0Ɩ0cαųst Studies) and the School of Law at Leicester University have
    established an interdisciplinary initiative to investigate denialism,
    but also other aspects relating to the h0Ɩ0cαųst and to genocide.

    This workshop is intended to be an initial meeting and appraisal of this
    field of research, but it will also facilitate the creation of a network
    of scholars and expert commentators who are interested in this field.

    It will focus on questions such as:  

    How do we define h0Ɩ0cαųst denial?

    How can it be proven?

    What are the intentions behind h0Ɩ0cαųst denial?

     What is the impact of laws against h0Ɩ0cαųst denial?

    Abstracts are invited from all disciplines and to all aspects of this
    field of research, to be submitted to Dr Olaf Jensen (oj6@le.ac.uk)

    or Dr Paul Behrens (pk124@le.ac.uk).

    Abstracts should be no longer than 1 A4 page.

    Closing date for submission: 1 August 2010

    The above in bold is of seminal importance in our evil age.

  • Right to scepticism?  I need to ponder that.  Wouldn't it make a lot more sense to study the merit of h0Ɩ0cαųstism?
