What are the benefits of democracy? Perhaps it is its capacity to constrain the centrality of power in such a way that no one can impose his will on the rest of the population in an absolutist manner? Democratic institutions, because they segment power, have the advantage of preserving the population from the throes of dictatorship and the arbitrariness that…

A New Social Order Is Emerging
A new social hierarchy has slowly imposed itself without us being able to stop it. It is based on information, as the earth was for medieval societies. Billions of human beings produce information through the use of their various devices such as telephones and laptops. In themselves, they are the new peasants. Their productions are captured by big tech companies…
+Being Greedy Leads Us To Make The Wrong Choices
There is enough of everything in the world to satisfy man’s needs, but not enough to satisfy his greed. Gandhi According to the Robert dictionary, greed is defined as the ardent, immoderate desire for something, the vivacity with which it is satisfied. The important word in this definition is in my opinion “something”, that is to say a tangible and…
+How To Live With Absence?
This cherished parent, gone without saying goodbye. This eternal love, which nevertheless goes away, leaving an emptiness that silence fills with gravity. This look that we will never meet again. Those sweet words of yesteryear whose echoes warm and chill us at the same time. These tender moments that we replay, like vestiges of a time now distant. This memory…

+Confusing Word With Deed
Living in the illusion of accomplishment In a static world where we spend most of our time sitting in a comfortable chair, seat or armchair, whether working, telecommuting, commuting or shopping online, we seem to have forgotten what moving implies and how it relates to action. Our fingers tapping away at a computer keyboard or the silicon of our smartphones…
+There Is No Such Thing As Thinking Well
Thinking is an overused word. Thinking is a daily act that we do with more or less success. Thinking stops where dogma or doxa begins. The problem of our time, and maybe it has always been the case, is the bien-pensance, that is to say a leaden cap that is put on our heads to prevent us from wandering off…
+Horizontal And Vertical Racism
Racism is defined as hatred or fear directed against a person on the basis of his or her origin or skin color. Despite the simplicity of this definition, it is difficult to understand the inability of certain so-called progressive currents to recognize all forms of racism, in particular that directed against people of European origin, known as white. The mental…
+Can Identity Serve Us?
Some representatives of the world of personal development put forward the idea of getting rid of all identity. The reason given is that identity is a hindrance in the quest for truth. The representation we have of ourselves acts as a filter that does not allow the truth to come through. This idea is far from being new, it finds…
+What Is Going On Behind The Scenes Of This Life?
Whilst laying on the shadow of a firm plane tree, listening to the birds singing, I am asking myself, what is going on behind these all? I could watch either with the Aesthetic or Questioning eyes wandering about the connections hidden from human eyes. From a long time ago, these two procedures were taken by many artists and scientists dealing…
