Salam Fayyad on Power and Justice
Channel: TheNexusInstitute
Date: 2014-05-02

"Do we have an innate notion of justice or is this a social construct?" 

In his grand speech, Salam Fayyad poses this question and searches for an answer with the help of philosophers and writers such as Plato, Thucydides, Camus, Foucault and Chomsky.

Salam Fayyad, Prime Minister of the Palestinian Authority from 2007 to 2013, aims for a Palestinian state at peace with Israel. "Peace cannot be obtained, but between equals." Therefore Fayyad stimulates the Palestinians to lift their spirits and build their future, brick by brick. He was the driving force in the process of creating stable educational, juridical, administrative and health care institutions, and continues to do so.
