Les ingénieurs du chaos

Published in 2019 by Folio

Dans le monde de Donald Trump, Jair Bolsonaro et Matteo Salvini, chaque jour porte sa maladresse, sa polémique, son coup d'éclat. Aux yeux de leurs électeurs, les défauts des leaders populistes se muent en qualités. Leur inexpérience est la preuve qu'ils n'appartiennent pas au cercle corrompu des élites et leur incompétence, le gage de leur authenticité. Les tensions qu'ils produisent au niveau international sont l'illustration de leur indépendance et les théories du complot qui jalonnent leur propagande, la marque de leur liberté de penser. Pourtant, derrière les apparences débridées du carnaval populiste, se cache le travail acharné de spin-doctors, d'idéologues et d'experts du Big Data, sans lesquels ces leaders populistes ne seraient jamais parvenus au pouvoir. Dans ce livre, Giuliano da Empoli brosse le portrait de personnages presque tous inconnus du grand public, et qui sont pourtant en train de changer les règles du jeu politique et le visage de nos sociétés.

This Changes Everything

Capitalism vs. The Climate

Edition
Published in 2014 by Simon & Schuster

In This Changes Everything Naomi Klein argues that climate change isn’t just another issue to be neatly filed between taxes and health care. It’s an alarm that calls us to fix an economic system that is already failing us in many ways. Klein meticulously builds the case for how massively reducing our greenhouse emissions is our best chance to simultaneously reduce gaping inequalities, re-imagine our broken democracies, and rebuild our gutted local economies. She exposes the ideological desperation of the climate-change deniers, the messianic delusions of the would-be geoengineers, and the tragic defeatism of too many mainstream green initiatives. And she demonstrates precisely why the market does not - and cannot - fix the climate crisis, but will instead make things worse, with ever more extreme and ecologically damaging extraction methods, accompanied by rampant disaster capitalism.

Klein argues that the changes to our relationship with nature and one another that are required to respond to the climate crisis humanely should not be viewed as grim penance, but rather as a kind of gift - a catalyst to transform broken economic and cultural priorities and to heal long-festering historical wounds. And she documents the inspiring movements that have already begun this process: communities that are not just refusing to be sites of further fossil fuel extraction but are building the next, regeneration-based economies right now.

Can we pull off these changes in time? Nothing is certain. Nothing except that climate change changes everything. And for a very brief time, the nature of that change is still up to us.
