Quotes by Harald Welzer (?)

“In World War II, some Japanese soldiers preferred to take their own lives rather become prisoners of war. In Saipan hundreds of civilians jumped to their deaths over cliffs in order to avoid falling into American hands. Even in life-or-death situations cultural ties and duties often outweigh the instinct for survival. This is why people die in the attempt to rescue a dog from drowning, or decide to become suicide bombers.”
― Harald Welzer, Soldaten: On Fighting, Killing, and Dying, The Secret WWII Transcripts of German POWS

“Esto ocurrió hace cien años; desde entonces han cambiado las formas de violencia, pero sobre todo la manera en que se habla de ella. Son contados los casos en los que Occidente ejerce la violencia directa contra otros países; hoy las guerras son emprendimientos que incluyen grandes cadenas de actuaciones y numerosos actores; la violencia se delega, se transforma, se vuelve invisible. Las guerras del siglo XXI son posheroicas; parece como si se libraran a regañadientes. Y tras el Holocausto, hablar con orgullo del exterminio de pueblos se ha vuelto imposible.”
― Harald Welzer, Guerras climáticas: Por qué mataremos (y nos matarán) en el siglo XXI
