“As Palestinians, our only resource for self-improvement is ourselves…”: Dr. Sari Nusseibeh
In the West Bank and East Jerusalem, the Palestinian Authority’s lack of focus on science “is a major gap”, says Sari Nusseibeh, a philosopher at Al-Quds University and a leading academic in the region. Nusseibeh was president of his university in the optimistic 1990s, when he strongly encouraged the development of research — as well as academic cooperation with Israel, a powerhouse for world-class research. Back then he reasoned that if the Palestinian territories were to become an independent state, they would need a strong base in research — not least because they have few natural resources. “As Palestinians, our only resource for self-improvement is ourselves as human beings, and the more initiative we have, the better.”

“Del Paso busca agotar las posibilidades del lenguaje”: Elena Poniatowska
La escritora Elena Poniatowska publicó en octubre un ensayo sobre Del Paso que exaltaba sus cualidades como escritor e intelectual.
“Ningún escritor en México en nuestros días y en todos los tiempos de todos los siglos pasados y futuros tiene su erudición“, resaltó Poniatowska en su publicación del diario La Jornada.
“Del Paso busca agotar las posibilidades del lenguaje. El mundo es infinito y cada cosa tiene irremediablemente un solo nombre, pero Fernando quiere que tengan más y les amarra una suntuosa cauda de palabras que parece no tener fin“, añadió.
