The very use of the word "Nazi," is quite uncommon for most westerners. It's quite offensive, so we tend to air-brush it from our vocabularies. But the word is increasingly becoming more prevalent as we are confronted by the US/NATO/EU-backed proxy war against Russia which is currently raging in Ukraine, claiming the lives of tens of thousands of Ukrainian and Russian Servicemen, and causing the displacement of millions of Ukrainian citizens as they are forced to flee from their homes.

The United States and NATO allies have sown the conflict in Ukraine and we are now reaping the whirlwind. That’s the view of Benjamin Abelow who explains the reasons in this interview with Finian Cunningham. Abelow is the author of How the West Brought War to Ukraine. In his book and in this interview, he lays out the background of the war and how the US and its Western allies created the causes of conflict. We need to understand those causes of conflict if sustainable peace is to be found – before this war turns into a catastrophe of all-out world war. The United States, NATO and the Western media are part of the problem, not part of the solution as they would fancifully pretend to be. Washington repeatedly ignored Moscow’s strategic security concerns over many years with the expansion of NATO right up to Russia’s borders. Even on the eve of war at the beginning of this year, the US and its NATO partners dismissed out of hand Russia’s diplomatic efforts to form a security treaty for Europe, one that would take Moscow’s concerns into proper consideration. That effort at diplomacy was rejected and now we are in a situation of horrific destruction and suffering and the potential for a nuclear conflagration. The Western media are doing a huge disservice to public understanding of the war in Ukraine, how it was created and what are the bigger geopolitical concerns. Abelow says the Western media are acting like “propaganda arms” for warmongering policies. Russia is distorted as “evil incarnate” while Vladimir Putin is caricatured as the “new Hitler”. This is appalling misinformation and anyone who challenges the distortions is liable to be denounced as a “Russian stooge” or censored from public debate. False narratives are leading to more and more errors with tragic consequences. The Biden administration is a shambles as are European governments. They are piling more fuel to the fire in Ukraine such as endlessly supplying weapons instead of pushing for a negotiated settlement. The decision by the Biden administration this week to supply Patriot missiles to Ukraine is one more example of how the West is recklessly escalating a conflict which is ultimately bringing nuclear powers into confrontation. In the midst of this madness, the Western media are censoring intelligent and informed views about the war in Ukraine. Benjamin Abelow brings such a view to the fore in this interview. If war is to be averted then we must understand the causes of conflict. Benjamin Abelow provides such an understanding. #Benjamin Abelow # Ukraine War # United States # NATO # Russia #Finian Cunningham

Hans Booms a, dans un texte fondateur, situé l’évaluation comme étant la fonction la plus noble de la discipline archivistique. Il est donc toujours important de garder en tête ce que la littérature met comme outils, principes et processus à disposition de l’archiviste afin qu’il arrive à une évaluation la plus rigoureuse possible. Cette fonction a pour but, particulièrement dans le cas des archives historiques, de bien refléter la société d’où émanent les documents. La lecture d’un texte de Joseph Morsel, historien-médiéviste, intitulé “Les sources sont-elles « le pain de l’historien » ?”, dans lequel il enjoint ses collègues et étudiants à ne jamais oublier que leurs « sources » ont subi un tri et une sélection (Morsel 2003), suscite quelques réflexions quant au concept d’évaluation. En effet, cette lecture, mise en parallèle avec le texte d’Hans Booms (2002), où ce dernier illustre l’influence de la société sur l’acte d’évaluation, permet de réaliser toute l’importance de préserver le contexte lors de l’évaluation. Ces lectures mettent en lumière l’impact que peut avoir ce geste. À partir de ces réflexions, il est intéressant de pousser plus loin et d’explorer comment le contexte peut être conservé à l’ère du numérique. En effet, il est moins aisé, avec le règne de la « donnée », de percevoir l’intérêt ou la signification d’un document électronique au-delà de l’information factuelle qu’il porte. Le rapport avec un tableur rempli de données est définitivement moins inspirant, voire émotif, au premier abord qu’avec un parchemin enluminé. Le contexte participe à cette inspiration, car il fait mesurer la signification ou « l’importance historique » du document en question. Mais dans le cas des archives numériques, où se situe ce contexte? On pourrait arguer qu’il est maintenant défini par les métadonnées liées au document, mais est-ce suffisant et à quelles conditions? Permettront-elles aux documents de nous donner un reflet fidèle et complet de notre société? Dans un autre ordre d’idée, la dématérialisation annoncée aura-t-elle un impact sur la lecture des sources historiques?
