Touching naivety ....

Their diagnosis very (too?) Generally, the state of the world is fair and easily refutable. All of us in his inner self, feel that we will be facing a much deeper crisis than economic and financial crisis discussed daily in the media, created a crisis of global imbalances of globalization and the exhaustion of the production model, a multifaceted crisis on a scale not waiting since 1945, in a word: a crisis of civilization.

Political rhetoric made to ensure that they had taken the measure of the problem and that we should trust them to adopt the necessary reforms; Sarkozy even promised us a new "politics of civilization" but what have we seen so far? Everywhere a "policy of every man for himself", intended to save what can be the privileges of the dominant classes ....

In this register of the solutions to the crisis, Stephane Hessel and Edgard Morin are no better. They offer no more and no less, than squaring the circle, globalization in the de-globalization ... or the opposite, relying on Confucian benevolence and create nothing less than (?!?): Properties of the Fraternity, a Board of Ethics state, a Public Office of Consumer, a Permanent Council of the fight against inequality, a Permanent Council for reversing imbalances and a Permanent Council dealing with social and human transformations. STOP! We do not laugh! it'll make many officials .... (just kidding!).

If this little book is of interest, it is to measure the gap between the scale and complexity of the crisis of civilization, which is still in its beginning, and the immense distress of people loaded to provide solutions y ((politicians, intellectuals, economists ...). In the same vein that "path of hope", I prefer the collective work of the Republic of Ideas, edited by Rosanvallon, entitled "remake society" seems a little more serious .... Redo company
