Homaranismo roughly Humanitarianism or Humanitism is an Esperanto word used by its creator, L. L. Zamenhof Ludwig Zamenhof , to describe his philosophy of human interaction and behaviour. Based largely on the teachings of Hillel the Elder , a 1st century BCE rabbi , Zamenhof originally called this philosophy Hillelism . Firstly he only want to reform Judaism, because he hoped that Judaism without the strange dress code and purity requirements would not longer be the victim of antisemitic propaganda. The basis of Hillelism is the sentence with which you could, so Hillel, abstract the whole bible. This sentence is called the Golden Rule One should treat others as one would like others to treat oneself . Zamenhof says about it With Hillelism we don t mean a new denomination, we mean a new corporate religious order inside the old jewish religion, which exists for a long time. Everybody who lives ethical could take part in this religion with a clear conscience, however his religious views he ... the religions. So he renamed it into Homaranismo.

Humanitarian political is a term that refers to an ideology that advocates a political standpoint based on a humanitarian perspective. The standpoint that come out of this ideology is constructed upon the conviction that every human being must have the right to freedom of speech freedom of press freedom of assembly freedom to information freedom to demonstrate freedom of establishing organisations and freedom of religion . The core of the humaniatarian political point of view is that these liberties are fundamental necessities in order for people to be able to influence political decisions and to shape their society and destiny. There are many humanitarian organisations all over the world that advocate these liberties and in their work strive for a world where they can be implemented. However none of them make any rigorous standpoints in the political arena as they concentrate their efforts on basic humanitarian issues. A humanitarian political organisation on the other hand does sufficient work in both fields and puts these together in order to make as big a difference as possible. Organisations The first organisation that introduced the concept of humanitarian policy was Initiative for democracy in Iran Initiative iran , a non profit organisation that was established in Stockholm Sweden in September 2006. Initiative Iran can thus be considered as the pioneers to hold a humanitarian political point of view as a foundation of an organisation.

Esperanto sidebar expanded Related Anationalism Esperanto sennaciismo is a term originating from the community of Esperanto speakers. It denotes a range of Cosmopolitanism cosmopolitan political concepts that combine some or all of the following tendencies and ideas radical anti nationalism antinationalism , Moral universalism universalism , one world ism , acceptance of the historic trend toward language death linguistic homogenization on a world scale, and in some cases even a striving to accelerate that trend, the necessity of political education and organization of the world proletariat in accordance with those ideas, and the utility of Esperanto as an instrument of such political education. Although conceived within the World Anational Association SAT , Sennacieca Asocio Tutmonda and promoted by its founder Eug ne Lanti , anationalism is not espoused by that organization as its official ideology. History Precursors Anationalistic ideas appeared in embryonic form in the plan for an International Esperantist Workers Federation put forth by the Bohemian Esperantist Workers Federation before World War I. These ideas, having gained impetus as a result of the war, were central to the thinking of the founders of SAT in 1921. They are very apparent in Eug ne Lanti Lanti s work For la Ne tralismon Away with Neutralism , which first appeared under the pseudonym Sennaciulo Nationless Man . The first members of SAT often regarded anationalism as a kind of all embracing overall ideology of SAT, and liked to call themselves sennaciuloj nationless people . Nevertheless, prior to the publication of Lanti s Manifesto de la Sennaciistoj Manifesto of the Anationalists anationalism was a term that was applied to several rather diverse ideas. For many members of SAT who espoused anationalism at that time, it simply meant proletarian internationalism plus Esperanto or it signified a workers version of L.L. Zamenhof s homaranismo .

Weasel date December 2009 Refimprove date March 2009 Esperanto and Interlingua are two Constructed language planned languages which have taken radically different approaches to the problem of providing an International auxiliary language IAL . Although they are both classed as IALs, the intellectual bases of Esperanto and Interlingua are quite different. It has been argued that each language is a successful implementation of a particular IAL model. However, in both language communities there is a polemical tradition of using external criteria to critique the perceived opponent language that is, judging Interlingua by Esperantist criteria and vice versa . In practical use, moreover, language usage in the two communities has sometimes shown convergences despite divergent theory. Intellectual background Unreferenced section date January 2010 One cannot ascribe a single outlook to all Esperantists or all Interlinguists however, the contrasting views of L. L. Zamenhof and Alexander Gode remain influential among Esperantists and Interlinguists, respectively. Zamenhof, the inventor of Esperanto, was motivated by several strands of nineteenth century idealism, ranging from Positivism Comtean positivism to utopian Internationalism politics internationalism . Esperanto, in his view, was a theoretically neutral Tool instrument for communication, which could serve as a vehicle for idealistic values, initially Zamenhof s philosophy of homaranismo , later the interna ideo internal idea of achieving fraternity and justice among all people Zamenhof through the adoption of Esperanto. Among later Esperantists, this philosophy has tended to reinforce a set of propositions about the language Esperanto s European character is purely accidental however, some features of Esperanto and of some western languages can be found in non Western ones. Esperanto is, ideally, the universal second language, replacing all other languages in inter ethnic communication pro Esperanto arguments tend to a ... more details
