Strijdend voor de revolutie en de verspreiding van het marxisme vond Che Guevara de dood, maar toch zou hij voortleven. In deze scriptie staat de vraag centraal waarom hij voortleeft en of dit te rechtvaardigen valt. De strijd van Che Guevara ging namelijk gepaard met gruweldaden, waaronder vele moorden. Is het wenselijk dat een Nederlandse jongen van vijftien met een shirt rondloopt waar een moordenaar op is afgebeeld, of moet deze afbeelding gezien worden als een symbool van een vrijheidsstrijder die zijn leven gaf voor het creëren van een rechtvaardige samenleving? In deze scriptie wordt op interdisciplinaire wijze naar antwoorden gezocht op de vele vragen die de controversiële erfenis van Che Guevara oproept. 2 Inhoudsopgave ABSTRACT 2 INHOUDSOPGAVE 3 KRONIEK 5 INLEIDING 6 DEEL I 1 ERNESTO ‘CHE’ GUEVARA 9 1.1 ERNESTO 9 1.1.1 ZIJN EERSTE JAREN 9 1.1.2 DE REVOLUTIE 14 1.2 CHE 17 1.2.1 NA DE REVOLUTIE 18 1.2.1.1 Cuba 18 1.2.1.2 Congo 20 1.2.2 HET EINDE 22 2 MOREEL OORDEEL 25 2.1 CAMUS 28 2.2 DEONTOLOGISCHE ETHIEK 29 2.3 INTENTIONALISTISCHE ETHIEK 30 2.4 CONSEQUENTIONALISTISCHE

    In the Shadow of the Moon 2007 PG 109 Minutes David Sington And

    In the Shadow of the Moon 2007 PG 109 minutes David Sington and Christopher Riley's acclaimed documentary reveals the history of the Apollo space program through interviews with the brave astronauts who lived through a paradigm-shifting chapter in world history. Devoted to President John F. Kennedy's goal of sending a man to the moon, the NASA project pushed the envelope of what was humanly possible. But the program also experienced several failures, one of which resulted in tragedy. Man on Wire 2008 PG-13 94 minutes Philippe Petit captured the world's attention in 1974 when he successfully walked across a high wire between New York's Twin Towers. This Oscar winner for Best Documentary explores the preparations that went into the stunt as well as the event and its aftermath. Obsessed with the towers even before they were fully constructed, Petit sneaked into the buildings several times to determine the equipment he needed to accomplish his daring feat. American Experience: Jonestown: The Life and Death of Peoples Temple 2006 NR 86 minutes How could one man -- Peoples Temple leader Jim Jones -- persuade 900 people to commit mass suicide by drinking cyanide-laced Kool-Aid in the jungles of Guyana? This penetrating portrait of the demented preacher attempts to answer that question. Using never- before-seen footage and audio accounts of two Jonestown survivors, documentarian Stanley Nelson paints a chilling picture of a social experiment gone horribly awry. When the Levees Broke: A Requiem in Four Acts 2006 TV-MA 3 discs Spike Lee commemorates the people of New Orleans with a four-hour epic documentary that not only recounts the events of late August 2005 but asks why they unfolded the way they did in the first place.
