Pour mieux protéger l'Occident
Like Pandora's box, the question of the Covid certificate, once opened, unleashes a multitude of complex themes that question our relationship to authority. It also reveals that modern thinking has yet to mature with regard to the difficult question of the dividing line between the public and private spheres, which 19th-century liberals had highlighted in their writings. By way of example, the media and the general public talk about the majority and the minority, without realizing that the latter is actually threatened in this new episode of the Covid certificate in the pandemic soap opera. Indeed, non-vaccinators will soon be considered persona non grata in the public arena, which is reminiscent of the mechanisms of social stigmatization, particularly tragic in the case of the Covid certificate.
ARTICLE LONG FORMAT, Jean-David Ponci | En voyant la rapidité avec laquelle les talibans se sont rendus maîtres de l’Afghanistan, on a tôt fait de critiquer les Etats-Unis qui auraient dû les en empêcher. Au-delà de cette première réaction, cette guerre nous offre une excellente base de réflexion pour une question universelle: comment une nation peut-elle transmettre ses valeurs à une autre? La réponse nous permettra d’y voir plus clair sur une prétendue défaite de l’Occident et de réfléchir à l’image que nous donnons au reste du monde.
ANALYSE LONG FORMAT, Clément Guntern | Malgré une image conquérante et de vastes ambitions, le projet d’empire-monde chinois risque bien de se heurter à de nombreux obstacles.

Le Regard Libre N° 77 – Enzo Santacroce Série «Les préjugés à l’égard des philosophes», épisode #2 S’il est un philosophe...
In an unprecedented upheaval in human history, entire regions that had been synonymous with poverty and political chaos have emerged on the world stage. However, the West, which is largely responsible for this recent success, does not yet seem to have integrated the new global order: in the near future, it will no longer be the center of the world.
LONG FORMAT ARTICLE, Clément Guntern | As September's general elections for the Bundestag draw nearer, there's an unexpected topic on which Germany's environmentalists could make the most profound changes since the end of the war. And it's not just the fight against climate change.
The desire of various countries to increase the proportion of biofuels in petrol highlights some important issues: the difficulty of a truly beneficial ecology, but also the essential role of governments in promoting value-based policies in the face of a globalized economy that seems to know only profitability as a criterion.
Communitarian discourse, currently in vogue and carried by minorities in need of an existence rather than victims of real repression, is torpedoing the fine 19th-century idea that the freedom of minorities should be preserved and defended, by transforming it into a weapon against freedom of expression, which includes, among other things, the right to humor. It is to be feared that the controversy provoked by French-speaking comedienne Claude Inga-Barbey's sketch dramatizing the difficulties of naming gender transformations illustrates an era marked by the thought police. From a philosophical point of view, this situation conceals an opposition between two types of universalism, that of proclaiming the rights of Man versus the rights of men.
