Are These Holidays also Mine?
I often wonder about their relevance to me
as an Israeli and a Jew…
Well, these holidays are both nothing and everything to me!
I have recently read, a fascinating and most highly recommended book,
clarifying our contemporary world, by describing and analyzing
the present society and the world’s new order:
EMPIRE
According to this book,
I am a citizen of the world’s new order,
which the authors call “Empire”.
This order is not a state, or an empire,
in their historical sense!
The new order is based on the capitalist
and cyber economy.
It has no historical roots.
In fact, it is a new “creature”,
established in the 20th century,
and is still developing today.
We are all its citizens.
The world is no longer just -“a”- “ global village”,
but rather a multi-cultured, multi- religious, multi- ethnic Empire.
So, as a citizen of the Empire, these holidays are also mine!
We all celebrate Christmas, Hanukah or Kwanza
as a tribute to the multi- cultured citizens of the Empire.
….And of course, living in the capitalist system,
these are excellent occasions for Sales….
In this spirit, I am launching the Holidays Sale:
