If I had done as a child something stupid, it made me different creative for so long inside, to get my parents about it and told the unpleasant matter came to light. you know the intended. It was liberating, if it was known and forgiven was. In the past few days brought the unveiling platform Wikileaks also something to light that had gone stupid. Prior to the world were confidential, while critical comments of American diplomats to politicians in other countries brought to light. This in turn, not the same liberating effect I experienced as a child had. Why? How much transparency is helpful and constructive in what place? So for the second Advent over a column of light. But this time in connection with transparency. Normally, we expect that light brings clarity. Things are put in perspective. Deception is over. Is there an excess of light and transparency? Apparently so. Wikileaks does not just light in the dark, but transparent to the overkill. How much transparency is all this? That question was not the revelation platform. Hardly anyone denies that the recent disclosure of Wikileaks had destructive character. And that is because the relations and cooperation of individual states would probably not loaded, if not all the personal comments of the respective diplomats and intelligence services would become public. The relationship of trust was not present, so that such mistakes and errors could have been worked up. It is expected that the disclosure will complicate the cooperation of States. For transparency, we need people to think, what triggers a disclosure by the other. If a comparison is moved by a strong emotional confession, it must be done in a familiar framework. In particular, when such disclosures individuals represent critical or disparaging. If, in such situations, however, the public is looking for, aggravated most of the situation and a conflict can overboard. For personal life, I learn two things from the recent unveiling of history. First, help the question: Does it serve the good, if I bring this matter to light? And second, how can I create a framework of trust, which helps others to deal with a difficult thing when it comes to light? In most cases this does not happen in the world public, but in a small frame that does not merely the opposite. Wikileaks can thus be applied not just in personal life. This is particularly important for the holiday season. "Arise, and be light" can also mean my fellow man to protect and give him the necessary heat before I confront him with an uncomfortable truth.
