Michel Maffesoli : « In order to move forward you must lean solidly on the past »

The refusal to accept social constructions that are « against nature », abstract and rationalist is beginning to come to the fore. It is from this refusal that the need to found our togetherness on a shared sensitivity is born. The purpose of the last book (« Ecosophie » Edited by CERF) by Michel Maffesoli ,was to unearth the silent currents of thought that illustrate this proposal. In the interview below the professor Emeritus of the Sorbonne and member of the University Institute of France (Collège de France)   and honorary member of the committee of honour of the FEDE tells us more. What are the key arguments of your last work? I examine various ideas. The first is linked to the distinction between “progressist” and progressive; a progressive society is one which respects tradition [lire plus]

Extract from the conference by Alain TOBELEM, PhD, HDR, at the FEDE assembly in Paris Reflexions on entrepreneurship in relation to globalization Entrepreneurship must be rethought under the light of the process of globalization such as we live through and will live in the coming years. I suggest a 3-dimensions reflexion: The worldwide economic playground is less and less fragmented, shattered in regional markets and in national economies.  It is tending toward becoming unique, with the same venue of exchanges for everyone and larger and larger numbers of actors having access in a global space where they are becoming more and more independent. We no longer have the choice of entrepreneurship; we are compelled to it.  We have perhaps not yet sufficiently realized but even in traditional jobs, managers no longer wait [lire plus]
