This relationship began to take shape following the consolidation of the French Republic but became more pronounced at the turn of the 20th century, at the fin de si\u00e8cle. The collapse of empires in Eurasia further fueled collective resentment, paving the way for the rise of nationalist political movements in the first half of the 20th century. This politics produced a dangerous cocktail of racism, war, and authoritarianism. As we entered the 21st century, we saw little deviation from this pattern. A globally integrated world has witnessed transnational conflicts (such as the &#8220;War on Terror&#8221;), social movements (such as the Arab Spring), and the rise of right-wing nationalism, all of which echo the politics of the early 20th century.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dr. Thomas Hansen\u2019s insightful lecture drew a comparison between these two historical epochs, revealing both uncanny similarities and notable differences. While it is tempting to interpret the present through the lens of the past, we must avoid reducing current realities to mere historical echoes. Dr. Hansen&#8217;s exploration of the rise of right-wing nationalism during the early 20th century helped deepen our understanding of how these ideologies shaped the liberal-postcolonial world order. Whether through the \u2018scientific\u2019 theories of racism, pseudo-mystical interpretations of vitalism, or the authoritarian delusions legitimized by moral ideologies of monism, the first four decades of the 20th century saw the convergence of these various streams of thought into a powerful political culture. This culture prioritized exclusion over inclusion, difference over shared humanity, and power over empathy. It connected individuals to ideologies that, rather than addressing real suffering, instead built upon feelings of <\/span><i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">ressentiment<\/span><\/i><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. Thus, giving rise to political projects which were anti-human and were perhaps the most brutal and inhumane expressions of modern politics. Even British India did not escape this trend and emergent politics of self-expression led to partition, ethnic cleansing, and large-scale human displacement.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The political cultures of today are, in some respects, eerily similar to those of the interwar period. The unfulfilled promises of social mobility and economic stability are once again generating feelings of despondency, desperation, and anger. Just as the decline of imperial peace in the late 19th century gave way to world wars, so too has the neoliberal dream of unlimited growth given way to a &#8220;polycrisis&#8221; of historic proportions, marked by climate catastrophe, war, and disease outbreaks. The politics emerging from this crisis exhibit striking parallels to those of the early 20th century.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">However, while Dr. Hansen\u2019s comparison provides invaluable insights into the continuities between these historical periods, it is equally important to recognize the unique characteristics of the present. Two key distinctions stand out in my view: the rise of social media platforms as new virtual battlegrounds for politics, and the democratization of the public sphere. The world today is more digitally interconnected than ever before, and the public sphere is more democratized. Yet, paradoxically, individuals are increasingly isolated, disconnected, and oblivious to one another. In this hyperreal world\u2014where information is ubiquitous, yet ignorance often prevails\u2014the politics of the present are shaped by a complex interplay of accessibility and ignorance. Understanding this paradox is crucial for making sense of the culture in which we now live, one that seems more informed but, in many ways, less aware.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dr. Hansen\u2019s lecture provides a vital framework for understanding the cyclical nature of history, but it also challenges us to think critically about the profound changes and complexities that define our current moment. The lecture explored the historical roots of resentment and authoritarianism but little discussed today\u2019s globalized, digital, and increasingly fragmented world.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:276}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Read about the full 9<\/span><\/b><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">th<\/span><\/b><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\"> Yohsin Lecture here: <\/span><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/9th-yohsin-lecture-dr-thomas-hansen-on-fascism-authoritarianism-and-political-resentment\/\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">9th Yohsin Lecture 2024 at Habib featuring Dr. Thomas Hansen<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Read our previous Faculty Reflections piece here: <\/span><\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/habib.edu.pk\/HU-news\/lady-fatima-endowed-chair-inaugural-lecture-faculty-perspectives\/\"><b><span data-contrast=\"none\">Inaugural Lecture of the Lady Fatima Endowed Chair at Habib University: Faculty Insights<\/span><\/b><\/a><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Habib University\u2019s Yohsin Lecture is a prestigious platform for thoughtful intellectual engagement, bringing to Pakistan leading international scholars whose work has wide-ranging impact and represents excellence in their field.
