Où Pas?... Een Literaire Analyse Omtrent Blasfemische Cartoons in Onze Samenleving Lise Van Bossuyt Où pas?... Een literaire analyse omtrent blasfemische cartoons in onze samenleving Proeve ingediend voor het behalen van de graad van Master in de Wijsbegeerte en Moraalwetenschappen, afstudeerrichting: media, cultuur en politieke filosofie Promotor: Prof. Dr. Verstrynge K. Academiejaar 2015-2016 Engelse titel: Je suis Charlie – où pas? A literary analysis of blasphemic cartoons in our society Ik verklaar plechtig dat ik de masterproef, Je suis Charlie, où pas?... Een literaire analyse omtrent blasfemische cartoons in onze samenleving, zelf heb geschreven. Ik ben op de hoogte van de regels i.v.m. plagiaat en heb erop toegezien om deze toe te passen in deze masterproef. Datum Naam + handtekening 1 Dankwoord Van deze gelegenheid had ik graag gebruik gemaakt om een aantal mensen te bedanken die samen met mij gewerkt hebben aan deze thesis. Deze mensen hebben noch literaire, noch methodologische bijdragen geleverd, maar hebben aan mij als persoon gewerkt wanneer dat nodig was. De tot stand koming van een thesis is een continu proces, waarbij alle steun en hulp zeer welkom is en deze heb ik meer dan voldoende gekregen. Hierbij wil ik dus voornamelijk mijn papa, mijn vriend en mijn beste vriendinnen bedanken die mij in deze lange periode ontzien hebben van last en mij lieten ontspannen en lachen. Zonder hen was deze thesis geen feit geweest en ook al hebben zij geen concrete inspanningen of bijdragen geleverd aan deze thesis an sich, ze hebben meer bijdragen dan ze ooit zouden kunnen vermoeden. Alsook mijn promotor Prof. Dr. Verstrynge verdient een grote dankjewel voor zijn sturing en motiverende toespraken. 2 Samenvatting Naar aanleiding van de gebeurtenissen in het hoofdkwartier van het satirische magazine Charlie Hebdo kwamen mensen massaal op straat onder het motto Je suis Charlie om te pleiten voor meer tolerantie en ter verdediging van de vrije meningsuiting. Dat dergelijke aanslagen en bedreigingen niet in onze samenleving getolereerd kunnen worden, is duidelijk. Maar wat met dergelijke cartoons? Aan de hand van een literatuurstudie en casus werdin dit werk getracht een antwoord te bieden op de centrale onderzoeksvraag: Je suis Charlie – où pas? Zijn dergelijke godslasterende cartoons te verkiezen in onze maatschappij of is een beknotting van de vrije mening dan toch niet beter? De conclusie van dit werk luidt volmondig: ja. Ja, we zouden allemaal Charlie moeten zijn en dit om meervoudige reden. De definities die gebruikt worden om blasfemie te benoemen neigen naar het arbitraire. Wat blasfemie is, is een menselijk construct dat weinig met het goddelijke te maken heeft. Daarbij heerst weinig eenduidigheid omtrent de reikwijdte van het begrip en gooien gelovigen vaak onderling zelf gretig met dergelijke cartoons. Van hieruit lijkt een verbod niet aangewezen. Op wettelijk vlak lijkt ook geen probleem te zijn met dergelijke cartoons, aangezien het recht op vrije mening, noch de grenzen van het recht werden geschonden. Uit een analyse van de vrije mening blijkt dat dergelijke blasfemische cartoons zijn toegestaan onder de begripsbepaling. Het recht voorziet wel enkele restricties voor deze vrije mening, met name wanneer schade wordt vastgesteld. Enkele voorbeelden van dergelijke schade zijn discriminatie, geweld, verstoring van de publieke orde of een belemmering van de vrije geloofsparticipatie. Uitvoerig werden deze cartoons onderworpen aan de verschillende vormen van schade en moest worden vastgesteld dat deze cartoons, hetzij eerder indirect, toch enige schade veroorzaken. Zo dragen ze bij aan een negatieve perceptie rond moslims en zetten ze de publieke orde onder druk. Of deze vaststelling genoeg is om dergelijke cartoons te verbieden, lijkt maar zeer de vraag. Ook kan geen voorbeeld genomen worden aan de bestaande blasfemiewetten, die dergelijke cartoons verbieden. Deze wetten lijken meer kwaad te veroorzaken dan problemen op te lossen. Zo worden ze veeleer gebruikt om andersdenkenden of dissidenten te vervolgen, stellen ze geloofsinstituten vrij van kritiek en zorgen deze blasfemiewetten ook voor een stagnatie van kennis en waarheid. Deze wetten vormen dus geen legitieme grond om deze 3 cartoons te verbieden. Tot slot werd over de verantwoordelijkheid van de cartoonist gebogen. De cartoonist kan moeilijk helemaal vrijgesteld worden van schuld voor de bloedige gebeurentissen. Echter, in dit verhaal in het aangewezen meer in termen van maatschappelijke verantwoordelijkheid te spreken, dan in individuele verantwoordelijkheid. Hopelijk kan dergelijke visie de bloedvergieten rond deze cartoons een halt toe zeggen. Kernwoorden: blasfemie, Mohammed-cartoons, vrije mening, hate speech Beknopte tekst In light of recent attacks on Charlie Hebdo and the Danish newspaper Jyllands-posten, society has had a lot of concern about blasphemous cartoons, as they were the reason for the attacks. Governments don’t know how to act, so the public discussion goes on and on. This work has tried to offer a guideline for these discussions, by setting the definitions straight. Under the main question, should we be Charlie?, those cartoons were evaluated. After a careful evaluation it seems better to be Charlie and to accept these cartoons, because to forbid these cartoons will not solve or prevent such violence. Keywords: Blasphemy, Mohammed-cartoons, free speech, hate speech 4 Inhoudsopgave 1.

Introduction Since the defeat of the Byzantine troops at the hands of the Seljuq Turks at the Battle of Manzikert in 1071, the Anatolian peninsula underwent a slow but steady process of Islamisation and cultural transformation.2 By the time the Mongols entered the peninsula in the 1240s, the local Seljuq dynasty of Rum was ruling over a multifaith, multiethnic and multicultural society where different conceptions of Islam (Hanafi, Shafiʿi and Sufi) and Christianity (mainly Greek Orthodox and Armenian but also inivisual Catholics) cohabited with the semi-nomadic

PHILIP GORDON, BROOKINGS INSTITUTION HELGA FLORES TREJO, HEINRICH BÖLL FOUNDATION FLEMMING ROSE, JYLLANDS-POSTEN AMMAR ABDULHAMID, BROOKINGS INSTITUTION DAVID IGNATIUS, WASHINGTON POST THOMAS KLEINE-BROCKHOFF, DIE ZEIT CLAUS CHRISTIAN MALZAHN, SPEIGEL ONLINE Transcript by: Federal News Service Washington, D.C. DR. PHILIP GORDON: Let me start by noting or underscoring that this is actually a collaboration at least between the Center on the U.S. and Europe here at Brookings and the Heinrich Böll Foundation with which we have collaborated a number times in the past on a range of issues: Europe, and Turkey’s role in Europe, Muslims in Europe, and political issues. So it is a pleasure to do that once again. I would like to ask the director of the Heinrich Boll Institute, Helga Flores, to say a couple of words to begin and then we will turn to our panelists. HELGA FLORES TREJO: Thanks, Phil, and thanks to everybody. During the past few weeks the events in Europe and the Middle East have really grown over us. I think things have grown worse by the day. And right now there is no end in sight yet. While the whole clash is known as the cartoonist controversy there has been really truly very little to laugh about what’s going on. We have seen protests from North Africa to South Asia, even more controversial opinions in most Western newspapers, death threats, rumors spreading, and people reacting. So the question is what are the people so angry about and what is all of this issue about? I think the facts are clear about the publication of the cartoons, and I would let Flemming Rose explain that.

GÉNEROS, ALCANCE Y PROPA- GANDA EN LA SÁTIRA GRÁFICA Por Manuel Barrero[1] RESUMEN Estudiar la morfología del humor implica valorar qué formas estructurales y de género adopta, de qué manera se transmite su mensaje y cómo afecta a sus receptores. Podremos discernir entre diferentes tipos de humor gráfico, desde el humor blanco hasta llegar a la sátira política, que pue- de suscitar polémica. El humor gráfico es considerado un medio de comunicación que, en su ver- tiente periodística, puede actuar como instrumento para el análisis de conflictos cotidianos, como vector de transgresión y también como arma política. Sobre la base de la lectura de los límites de la sátira gráfica en la prensa, analizando el caso con- creto de la repercusión de las llamadas ‘caricaturas de Mahoma’ y su tratamiento por diferentes medios de información, se advierte un uso propagandístico del humor gráfico que los profesiona- les del periodismo analizaron presurosamente en general, sin un reconocimiento previo de su naturaleza, funciones y alcance comunicativo.
