Portera analyzes the risks of a clash of civilizations due to the extreme stand of religious positions, as the destructive fundamentalism put in place by Isis and Boko Haram: can religious pluralism become an opportunity? Bauman says that pictures and stories of violence are among the most sellable offers in the present time, so we live on a minefield; explosions are all but inevitable to occur, but we don't know where and when. On the other hand, terrorism is the second-best of the downtrodden seekers of fame. If we want peace, we must respect not only human rights but also the rights of the people
