    Discussion led by: Ksenja Horvat Petrovčič. Garry Kasparov, the 13th World Chess Champion and one of the most recognizable faces of the Russian opposition, has come as a guest of Maribor European Capital of Culture. In the interview, which was filmed exclusively for Television Slovenia, Kasparov talked about the political situation in Russia, Vishy Anand, the twenty-year period when he led the global chess game, the orientations of modern chess and chess academy, which was opened in Slovenia, women and chess, and more. This is a very well conducted interview by the host and one of the best interviews I have seen in recent years. I am sure you will enjoy the video.

    Garry Kimovich Kasparov (Russian: Га́рри Ки́мович Каспа́ров, Russian pronunciation: [ˈɡarʲɪ ˈkʲiməvʲɪtɕ kɐˈsparəf]; born Garik Kimovich Weinstein, 13 April 1963) is a Russian (formerly Soviet) chess Grandmaster, former World Chess Champion, writer, and political activist, considered by many to be the greatest chess player of all time. From 1986 until his retirement in 2005, Kasparov was ranked world No. 1 for 225 out of 228 months. His peak rating of 2851, achieved in 1999, was the highest recorded until 2013. Kasparov also holds records for consecutive professional tournament victories (15) and Chess Oscars (11). Kasparov became the youngest ever undisputed World Chess Champion in 1985 at age 22 by defeating then-champion Anatoly Karpov. He held the official FIDE world title until 1993, when a dispute with FIDE led him to set up a rival organization, the Professional Chess Association. In 1997 he became the first world champion to lose a match to a computer under standard time controls, when he lost to the IBM supercomputer Deep Blue in a highly publicized match. He continued to hold the "Classical" World Chess Championship until his defeat by Vladimir Kramnik in 2000. Kasparov announced his retirement from professional chess on 10 March 2005, so that he could devote his time to politics and writing. He formed the United Civil Front movement, and joined as a member of The Other Russia, a coalition opposing the administration and policies of Vladimir Putin. In 2008, he announced an intention to run as a candidate in the 2008 Russian presidential race, but failure to find a sufficiently large rental space to assemble the number of supporters that is legally required to endorse such a candidacy led him to withdraw. Kasparov blamed "official obstruction" for the lack of available space. Although he is widely regarded in the West as a symbol of opposition to Putin, support for him as a candidate was very low. The political climate in Russia reportedly makes it difficult for opposition candidates to organize. He is currently on the board of directors for the Human Rights Foundation and chairs its International Council. Kasparov was born Garik Kimovich Weinstein (Russian: Гарик Вайнштейн) in Baku, Azerbaijan SSR (now Azerbaijan), Soviet Union. His father, Kim Moiseyevich Weinstein, was Russian Jewish, and his mother, Klara Gasparian, was Armenian.Kasparov has described himself as a "self-appointed Christian", although "very indifferent". Kasparov first began the serious study of chess after he came across a chess problem set up by his parents and proposed a solution. His father died of leukemia when Garry was seven years old. At the age of twelve, Garry adopted his mother's Armenian surname, Gasparyan, modifying it to a more Russified version, Kasparov. From age 7, Kasparov attended the Young Pioneer Palace in Baku and, at 10 began training at Mikhail Botvinnik's chess school under noted coach Vladimir Makogonov. Makogonov helped develop Kasparov's positional skills and taught him to play the Caro-Kann Defence and the Tartakower System of the Queen's Gambit Declined. Kasparov won the Soviet Junior Championship in Tbilisi in 1976, scoring 7 points of 9, at age 13. He repeated the feat the following year, winning with a score of 8½ of 9.

    Somewhere in this interview Kasparov in fact says, that he´s very good at admitting mistakes. He says that he has always followed Mikhail Botvinnik´s advice. You analyze, you find a mistake and you confess. You must be objective. He certainly wouldn´t have survived for 20 years in the chessworld if he had never admitted mistakes. He also says that he has made all sorts of mistakes in life. In every life there´s waste of time he says even in his own. So to those of you who can´t stop all your unfair criticism against Kasparov should stop all of it after this interview.

    I think it is very hard to be involved in other activities than chess when you do it on super-grandmaster- and world-champion-level. Despite of this I don´t think Kasparov is a nerd. On the contrary. I think he´s a very intelligent, humble, realistic, honest and charismatic man. But I also think that many people is feeling jaloux and inferior, when they see how brilliant he is as a chessplayer and as a humanbeing. They accuse him of being ego-centric and not very willing to admit mistakes. Well this interview is an example of the opposite. Many people envied Fischer too, so it is in fact an old story. The same thing with a german grandmaster (Richard Weizecker I think his name is) accusing Magnus Carlsen for not being a better player than Anand and wanting proof of this by having Carlsen playing against a computer. I say stop being envious when you should be admiring these people´s genius and contributions to chess and mankind.

      By asking seemingly naive questions she gave him a lot of room to answer. She guided his monolgues really nicely. She was charming and it seemed to me that Kasparov felt really confident and he did not feel the need to overplay his nervousness with a bit of harsh arrogance as he used to do on other occasions.

    Carlsen, unlike Anand, has been playing more frequently. There was a recent video in youtube about a game between Carlsen and Anand where Anad's position looked poor. They're supposed to play for the title in December 2013 (IIRC). I look forward to it. I think it's very likely that Carlsen will win. Also, "better" is not determined by who has the title when you talk about someone that has not yet had the chance to prove himself against him. Also, Carlsen's rating is higher than Anand's.

    Garry was clowning Anand and his lack luster time of being World Champion. I would have to say that I agree. More people know who Carlsen is than Anand unfortunately. I don't think it's entirely Anand's fault. Carlsen winning and being the champion wont help chess flourish either. Chess needs something bigger to attach itself with, like Kaspy was saying how politics was involved with Fischer vs Spassky, and Karpov vs Kaspy.

    • @manictiger
      @manictiger 3 роки тому

      Ironically, chess is bigger and it's more because of Hikaru (and Charlie, xQc, etc.) than Carlsen. If it wasn't for Pogchamps, I might not be so interested in chess.
      That being said, I respect Carlsen for the genius he is. There is no doubt he is leagues better than anyone else on Earth at Chess and has even emulated computers like AlphaZero.

    Carlsen is great player no doubt in that.But he didnt win all the tournaments.But I agree it looks he may rule the future of chess.
    Its unfair to compare to Carlsen and Anand.since Anand is at his end part of his career.Now there is a chance for Carlsen to prove.The stonger will win.

Kasparov might talk well and have good convincing skills, but listen carefully and you will pick up the inconsistencies and selfcontradictions in his fairytale.

There where, in fact, few renowned female painters in the history of art, and that has nothing to to with there human potencial to become masters at that discipline, but with the adverse social conditioning of the time... I hate when people swap from defending genre equality to radical and absurd sexism, it's so implicit in your speech!

    While Kasparov was one of the best chess players of all time, he was a nerd! Those who have known him up close know that he did not have a LIFE beyond chess. So, for a chess nerd to talk about how chess imitates LIFE, is totally an act of extrapolation. I think you might be a genius in one domain and have little or no idea about "LIFE". So Kaspy should just stick to playing chess....rather commentating on chess...since he has moved on from chess too.

      abba747 that’s a pretty sorry view of how life works, and that’s lame to presume that because someone is a genius in a field that there’s no way they could know anything about “life”. Geniuses probably understand life more than anyone else, certainly more than you, based on your thoughtless opinion.

  • @rypaz87
    @rypaz87 11 років тому

    Kasparov's reasoning at the end is insufficient. The reason it is difficult for a common person to name a female painter has nothing to do with the number of quality female painters there were in the history of Art. If women in Picasso's heyday couldn't even vote, what might their chances be of becoming a renowned artist? It isn't surprising to see Judith Leyster paintings attributed to Frans Hals; or Artemisia Gentileschi paintings attributed to her father. Is Kasparov really this blind?
