Ferghane Azihari and his plea for an industrial society

DOSSIER «LE GRAND RETOUR DU NUCLEAIRE», Jonas Follonier | Libéral classique? Libertarien? Il est en tout cas de ceux que la presse qualifie volontiers de «néo-libéraux» ou «ultra-libéraux» – des étiquettes pas forcément sympathiques. Mais les étiquettes et leur caractère sympathique (ou non) ne nous intéressent guère au Regard Libre. Voilà un analyste politique et économique qui compte, fréquemment invité dans les médias français (et pas seulement L’Opinion ou Le Figaro) et dont l’essai paru en 2021, Les écologistes contre la modernité, est passionnant. On pourra se trouver en désaccord profond avec une partie de ses opinions, voire leur totalité. Pour autant, une confrontation à sa hauteur de vue ne peut être que stimulante. De cet ouvrage offrant une critique en règle des fondements anti-capitalistes de l’écologie radicale, nous retiendrons notamment le plaidoyer enflammé et argumenté de l’auteur en faveur de la société industrielle et de l’énergie nucléaire.

Here we present some of the most surprising discoveries, such as animals« ability to use symbols, or their sense of empathy and cooperation. Scientific facts that bring them closer to us and help us to understand ourselves better.

This order is constantly being redefined, especially during crises such as wars. The various states and forces involved advance their pawns to claim the best possible place within this order, according to their interests. In a way, this is the fundamental modus operandi of international relations, which have been shaken by the current crisis.
