I was asked, on the occasion of a conference on the theme of free expression in music, as composer and performer of non-commercial/non-traditional music, and as a woman composer, to speak about the following topics: women composers and/or modernity versus tradition in Lebanon. Although both these topics are pertinent, they are mere parts of a broader topic, namely, what makesan individual, and what is the importance of individuality in art. For surely when we speak offreedom we speak of individual freedom.

Classical music and Korean traditional music ‘Gugak’ in Korean culture try various ways such as creating new music and culture through mutual interchange and fusion for coexistence. The purpose of this study is to investigate the present status of Classical music in Korea that has not been 200 years old during the flowering period and the Japanese colonial period, and the classification of Korean traditional music and musical instruments, and to examine the preservation and succession of traditional Gugak, new Korean traditional music and fusion Korean traditional music.

The right to freedom of religion and belief is closely linked with the rights to free expression of opinion, to peaceable assembly and freedom of association. In particular, they share the common purpose of assuring to an individual freedom of choice. Moreover, to be effective, each normally requires the use of one or other of the means of dissemination of knowledge and information, which include newspapers, books, pamphlets, petitions, posters, radio, television and motion pictures. Likewise, to be effective, the rights to freedom of religion and free expression of opinion must be linked to freedom of association in the sense of the right to form and to join organisations for the advancement of particular views and interests. This is particularly true of cities and other densely populated areas. Indeed, the essential similarity between these rights was reflected in their embodiment in a single article in earlier Sudan constitutions. A consequence of these similarities is that the denial or infringement of any one of them has further ramifications on the other rights apparently left intact. Accordingly, the present study, while focusing on freedom of religion, will make brief excursions into the related rights of free expression of opinion, assembly and association. Before considering problems raised by freedom of religion, reference must first be made to its necessity.

The article is devoted to the study of the influence of the worldview of each individual - relating to a certain set of citizens - on the existence of a particular state system in the area. The generally accepted political classification of "elite-mass" is analyzed from the standpoint of informal distribution, where the intellectual elite consists of responsible selfless individuals who invent vital ideas, implement them and bring them to the masses under their control. If this or that idea is thus freely accepted by the general public, forms their general worldview, then this is the main factor in the fact that such a state system covers this community of citizens

Abstract This article discusses how scholars have analyzed left populist governments in Latin America that include the previously excluded on the condition of their loyalty to the leader. It shows how different normative understandings of democracy have allowed the classification of populism as democratizing, a risk to democracy that could lead to competitive authoritarianism, or a sui generis combination of inclusion and authoritarianism. The paper distinguishes inclusion from democratization, and populists seeking power, from populists in governments, and populist regimes. It argues that the notion of polarized populist democracies captures better their autocratic and inclusionary practices. Populists maintain a commitment to elections hence selectively preserving rights to pluralism, free expression, and association. At the same time, they are authoritarian because populist leaders assume that they embody the people and consider that a section of the population represents the people as a whole, and that their mission is to redeem the people.
