La pensée anti-68

Une brillante plongée aux sources du discours anti-68, long travail de sape qui a présidé aux grands bouleversements des années 1980 et à la " restauration " intellectuelle et politique en cours. La haine de Mai 68 est devenue un thème à la mode. Le slogan de Nicolas Sarkozy, lors de la campagne présidentielle de 2007, sur l'indispensable liquidation du legs de 68, ne doit donc pas être réduit à un propos de campagne. Il s'appuie en réalité sur un travail idéologique qui a commencé dès les lendemains des événements et qui s'est poursuivi de commémoration en commémoration, jusqu'à devenir une vulgate à la fin des années 1990. Faut-il voir, dans cette fièvre anti-68, un...

The Walter Lippmann Colloquium

  • Publisher: Springer

This book is an introduction to and translation of the 1938 Walter Lippmann Colloquium held in Paris, which became known as the intellectual birthplace of “neo-liberalism.” Although the Lippmann Colloquium has been the subject of significant recent interest, this book makes this crucial primary source available to a wide, English-speaking audience for the first time. The Colloquium features important—often passionate—debates involving well-known intellectual figures such as Walter Lippmann, Louis Rougier, Friedrich Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, Michael Polanyi, Jacques Rueff, Alexander Rüstow and Wilhelm Röpke. Many of the topics addressed at the Colloquium, such as the proper methods of economic intervention, the relationship between the market economy and democracy, and the relationship between economic liberalism and political liberalism are issues that still vie for our attention in the aftermath of the Great Recession.

  • Publisher: Grasset

Pour beaucoup, le néo-libéralisme constitue le phénomème majeur de notre temps. C'est lui qui donnerait la clé de la crise économique et financière, des nouvelles formes de management, ou encore de la "privatisation du monde". Il est pourtant difficile d'y voir clair à travers cette notion. Le néo-libéralisme, est-ce le "laisser-faire" ou bien l'avènement d'un Etat fort au service de la concurrence ? S'agit-il d'un modèle hyper-individualiste et libertaire, ou bien d'un nouveau conservatisme normalisateur ? Pour s'y retrouver, ce livre propose une généalogie internationale des idées néo-libérales depuis les années 1930, à travers ces moments que furent le Colloque Walter L...

Neoliberalism is dead. Again. After the election of Trump and the victory of Brexit in 2016, many diagnosed the demise of the ideology of Margaret Thatcher, Ronald Reagan, Augusto Pinochet, and the WTO. Yet the philosophy of the free market and the strong state has an uncanny capacity to survive and even thrive in crisis. Understanding neoliberalism's longevity and its latest permutation requires a more detailed understanding of its origins and its varieties. This volume breaks with the caricature of neoliberalism as a simple belief in market fundamentalism and homo economicus to show how neoliberal thinkers perceived institutions from the family to the university, disagreed over issues from intellectual property rights and human behavior to social complexity and monetary order, and sought to win consent for their project through the creation of new honors, disciples, and networks. Far from a monolith, neoliberal thought is fractured and, occasionally, even at war with itself. We can begin by making sense of neoliberalism's nine lives by sorting out its own tangled histories.

Adorno, Foucault and the Critique of the West

  • Publisher: Verso Books

The alliance of critical theory between Frankfurt and Paris Adorno, Foucault and the Critique of the West argues that critical theory continues to offer valuable resources for critique and contestation during this turbulent period. To assess these resources, it examines the work of two of the twentieth century's more prominent social theorists: Theodor W. Adorno and Michel Foucault. Although Adorno was situated squarely in the Marxist tradition that Foucault would occasionally challenge, Deborah Cook demonstrates that their critiques of our current predicament are complementary in important respects. Among other things, these critiques converge in their focus on the historical conditions-economic in Adorno and political in Foucault-that gave rise to the racist and authoritarian tendencies that continue to blight the West. Cook also shows that, when Adorno and Foucault plumb the economic and political forces that have shaped our identities, they offer remarkably similar answers to the perennial question: What is to be done?
