Hoda Salah (Political scientist and publicist) in conversation with Susanne Schr\u00f6ter (Professor of ethnology for colonial and postcolonial oders), Moderation: Thomas Biebricher<\/p>\n
Historically speaking, the relation of the Eastern and Western world, orient and occident, has been characterized by reciprocal accusations of sinfulness and permissiveness. Until the beginning of the 20th century, European artists associated the orient with the notion of seduction. On the contrary, today, many Muslims regard the Western world as being deeply immoral. Such stereotypes conceal the facts that, first, the issues of sexuality and moral are controversially discussed both in the Eastern and Western world, second, that rigid norms provoke breaking them, and third, that permissiveness (\u201clibertinage\u201d) can lead to the abuse of power. In the Frankfurt Lecture, publicist Hoda Salah and Susanne Schr\u00f6ter, Professor for the ethnology of colonial and postcolonial orders at the Goethe-University, have discussed sexual liberty and its limits, pornography, women\u2019s rights, morality and double standards.<\/p>\n
