            Abstract

            This article examines the value of René Girard's thoughts concerning the relationship between violence and the sacred for those involved in any kind of violence. It analyses the three essential dimensions of the Girardian insight, including the mimetic nature of desire, the working of the scapegoat mechanism in the process of humanization, and the prophetic critique of sacrifice. Against the common misapprehensions about Girard's thought with regard to its falsifiability and ideological totality, this article proposes that Girardian thought could serve as a as resource for self-criticism for those involved in contexts of violence. The article outlines various moments of this process: heartbreak, including the realization of sameness instead of difference; truthfulness, or the slow process of exiting mendacity; the losing of an addiction to cheap meaning; and finally the setting free of a healthy imagination.

            تعالج هذه المقالة أهمية أفكار رينيه جيرارد حول العلاقة بين العنف والمقدس للفئات والأفراد الذين يعيشون في ظل أنواع مختلفة من العنف. تحلل هذه المقالة الأبعاد الثلاثية الأساسية لفكر جيرارد، بما في ذلك طبيعة الرغبة المحاكية، آلية كبش الفداء في عملية الأنسنة، والنقد النبؤي للتضحية وبعكس الأفكار الخاطئة والشائعة عن فكر جيرارد فيما يتعلق في إمكانية دحضها وطبيعتها الأيدولوجية الشاملة، تقترح هذه المقالة أن فكر جيرارد يمكن أن يسير كمصدر للنقد الذاتي للذين سيعيشون في سياقات العنف. يوضح المقال لحظات مختلفة من عملية النقد الذاتي هذه: الحسرة بما في ذلك تحقيق التماثل بدلاً من الاختلاف ؛ الصدق أو العملية البطيئة للخروج من الكذب ؛ التخلص من الإدمان على إنتاج المعنى الرخيص؛ وأخيرًا، إطلاق العنان للخيال المتكامل. لا تعبر الأفكار الواردة في المخطوطة عن أفكار هيئة تحرير المجلة أو عمادة البحث العلمي في جامعة بيت لحم. يعتبر المؤلف المسؤول الوحيد عن مضمون المخطوطة أو أية أخطاء فيها.
