Amin Maalouf explains with crystal clear clarity that we are all made multifaceted. Do not sort or otherwise oppose one enters intolerance. Every being is different from me because I am only one with all these facets of my identity. So I can reject those who are different from me. They all are. So I have to learn to live with all and respect / accept the differences. They are normal, as listed in nature. Maalouf points to some very sound ideas mile to rectify our behavior. Historian of Lebanese origin Amin Maalouf is better placed than anyone to tell us about the necessary cohabitation of religions, nations, rich and poor, Israelis and Arabs, etc ... After centuries of conflict, the world moving towards peace. For us to be at the appointment of history and to build peace adopting the recommendations of this landmark book "murderous identities". Especially recommended for those who have a problem with the differences ... The best trip is that we do to others. Enjoy reading. Christian Robieux. Bois d'Arcy.
