噩夢的力量:恐懼政治的崛起
The Power of Nightmares: The Rise of the Politics of Fear (2004)
導演: 亞當·柯蒂斯
影片內容講述喬治歐威爾筆下的經典小說「1984」如何在美國的新保守主義人士及激進的伊斯蘭主義者的推動之下於真實世界上演:
BBC紀錄片《噩夢的力量》揭露了我們受到一個隱藏的、有組織的恐怖主義網路所威脅的觀念,實際上只是一種幻覺。這是一個被政治、安全部門和國際媒體所傳播了但是沒有受到質疑過的神話。故事的核心是兩個團體:美國的新保守主義者和激進的伊斯蘭主義者。他們都是理想主義者,他們的行動起始於建構更好的世界的自由幻夢失敗之時。這兩組人改變了世界,但都不是以他們所希望的方式。他們共同創造了一場如今名為恐怖主義組織網路的惡夢。
The Power of Nightmares explores how the idea that we are threatened by a hidden and organised terrorist network is an illusion. It is a myth that has spread unquestioned through politics, the security services and the international media. At the heart of the story are two groups: the American neo-conservatives and the radical Islamists. Both were idealists who were born out of the failure of the liberal dream to build a better world. These two groups have changed the world but not in the way either intended. Together they created today's nightmare vision of an organised terror network.
