Blog- "Reason should frame a good politician’s goal to persuade" On a recent online course, I was made to read one of the most POWERFUL essays (by Amy Gutmann) “The Lure & Dangers of Extremist Rhetoric”, a topic so so prevalent worldwide. The speech is so profound that it actually made me sit up and take notice of my very own actions and reactions in #arguments; and while these principals apply in #politics, they are prevalent in family, work and society in general! So, what’s the SOLUTION… #EDUCATION! Schools, colleges and universities are the natural ARMIES at the forefront to teach our citizens the art of #rhetoric, in the words of @dramygutmann - “In searching for antidotes to extremism, there is therefore no substitute for a better democratic education in robust, reasoned, and respectful political controversy and debate. We need to teach students how to engage with one another over controversial issues. Students must first learn how to recognize demagogic rhetoric and then how to counter it, both individually and institutionally. Well-designed democratic institutions can dramatically reduce the toxic effects of extremist rhetoric. We need to support institutional structures whose incentives encourage respectful controversy. Well-structured debates and factcheck blogs can expose extremist and extreme rhetoric that is deceptive and subversive of the democratic pursuit of the public interest." This is the start of the ‘War Against Extremist Rhetoric’! {This is condensed version- please link to https://dinshawavari.com/2020/07/09/reason-should to read full blog} #politics #politicians #arguments #demagogy #politicalrhetoric #demagogicrhetoric #HotelsinPakistan #HotelsinKarachi #HotelsinLahore #HotelsinIslamabad #HotelsinMultan #HotelsinFaisalabad #avarihotels #AvariXpress #avaritowers #hotelsinkarachi #HotelsinLahore #HotelsinIslamabad #HotelsinMultan #HotelsinFaisalabad @beach_luxury @avari_towers @avarilahore @avarixpresshotelsresidences #EdX #harvardx @uofpenn #profjamesengell #jamesengell #professorjamesengel @harvard @edxonline @edxeducation @avarixpressfsd @ibakarachi_official @cejatiba #iba #instituteofbusinessadministration (at Beach Luxury Hotel Karachi) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCa9WVWp7T7/?igshid=kpzucyhit6iq
