Subversion Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. La subversion (latin subvertere : renverser) désigne un processus par lequel les valeurs et principes d'un système en place, sont contredits ou renversés. Le discrédit et la chute du pouvoir établi se fait dans le cadre de territoires politiquement ou militairement convoités[1]. Explication[modifier | modifier le code] Chacun peut lui conférer un sens positif ou négatif, en fonction de sa propre position par rapport aux valeurs du système en place ou à celles dont se réclament les acteurs de la subversion. Elle peut aussi - plus simplement - servir à faire évoluer les valeurs du système en les remettant en cause. Enfin, elle peut être sublimée à travers le symbole et la représentation artistique. De par sa nature, la subversion est souvent l'objet de censure et de répression.

Controversy Auseinandersetzung ("controversy"), by Karl-Henning Seemann. Controversy is a state of prolonged public dispute or debate, usually concerning a matter of conflicting opinion or point of view. The word was coined from the Latin controversia, as a composite of controversus – "turned in an opposite direction," from contra – "against" – and vertere – to turn, or versus (see verse), hence, "to turn against." Legal controversy[edit] For example, the Case or Controversy Clause of Article Three of the United States Constitution (Section 2, Clause 1) states that "the judicial Power shall extend ... to Controversies to which the United States shall be a Party". Benford's law of controversy[edit] Psychological bases of controversy[edit] Controversies are frequently thought to be a result of a lack of confidence on the part of the disputants - as in Benford's law of controversy.

Fringe theory A fringe theory is an idea or a collection of ideas that departs significantly from the prevailing or mainstream view. It can include work done to the appropriate level of scholarship in a field of study but only supported by a minority of practitioners, to more dubious work. Examples include pseudoscience (ideas that purport to be scientific theories but have little or no scientific support), conspiracy theories, unproven claims about alternative medicine, pseudohistory and so forth. Fringe science[edit] The term is not well defined, and ranges from valid, but non mainstream, science to wild ad hoc theories and "New Age mumbo jumbo", with the dominance of the latter resulting in the tendency to dismiss all fringe science as the domain of pseudoscientists, hobbyists, or quacks.[3] Other terms used for the portions of fringe science that lack scientific integrity are pathological science, voodoo science, and cargo cult science.

Conspiracy theory A conspiracy theory is an explanatory proposition that accuses two or more persons, a group, or an organization of having caused or covered up, through secret planning and deliberate action, an illegal or harmful event or situation.[1][2][3] Some scholars suggest that people formulate conspiracy theories to explain, for example, power relations in social groups and the existence of evil forces.[4][5][6][7] It has been suggested by some thinkers that conspiracy theories have chiefly psychological or socio-political origins. Proposed psychological origins include projection; the personal need to explain “a significant event [with] a significant cause;" and the product of various kinds and stages of thought disorder, such as paranoid disposition, ranging in severity to diagnosable mental illnesses. Similarly, socio-political origins may be discovered in the need of people to believe in event causation rather than suffer the insecurity of a random world and universe.[8][9][10][11][12][13]
Category:Pseudoscience Pseudoscience is a broad group of theories or assertions about the natural world that claim or appear to be scientific, but that are not accepted as scientific by the scientific community. Pseudoscience does not include most obsolete scientific or medical theories (see Category:Obsolete scientific theories), nor does it include every idea that currently lacks sufficient scientific evidence (e.g. String theory) This category comprises well-known topics that are generally considered pseudoscientific by the scientific community (such as astrology) and topics that have very few followers and are obviously pseudoscientific (such as the modern belief in a flat Earth). The pejorative term itself is contested by various groups for various reasons. Subcategories This category has the following 25 subcategories, out of 25 total.

The Earth is Expanding THE PANGEA THEORY is wrong . Yet it’s still the generally accepted one; still taught in our schools. In this video Neal Adams explains the theory that the Earth is in fact growing. If you have ever looked at a map of the world , you have undoubtedly noticed that the East coast of South America appears to mimic the shape of the West coast of Africa. This observation was also noticed by German born geophysicists, Alfred Wegener, who proposed that the continents we see today were once connected. But in the 1950s a research ship of the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University, conducted a deep sea survey of the Atlantic Ocean’s floor and discovered an enormous submerged mountain chain which they named the “Mid-Atlantic Ridge”. Close examination of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and other mid-ocean ridges, revealed that these were formed by cracks in the earth’s crust which allowed magma to come to the surface, cool and solidify to become new crust.

Consensus 911 | The 911 Best Evidence Panel 7 Conspiracy Theories That Turned Out To Be True I like things that really stretch the limits of what you know to be true. Whether these are documentaries, talks or books, I like it all. It makes you realize that there is so much more to reality that you may think, and that any thing is really possible if you keep an open mind. Many people tend to see conspiracy theories as something wacky and never having any ties to reality, but sometimes if you look deeply enough into something you may find there’s more to it than what you’ve been told.
