La fin de la mondialisation (Documents)
By François Lenglet. 2013
Les signaux sont chaque jour plus clairs : la phase actuelle de mondialisation touche à sa fin. Née dans les…
années 1980 avec le système boursier mondial et la chute du mur de Berlin, elle a reposé sur une utopie : une planète unifiée par le libre-échange, régie par le marché et la démocratie. Mais aujourd’hui, le courant protectionniste remonte. Des entreprises, notamment américaines, relocalisent leurs industries dans leur pays. L’OMC tremble. Partout, le nationalisme déborde. François Lenglet dévoile ici que nous sommes à la fin d’un cycle. Désormais, plus personne n’a honte de protéger son économie et de jouer sur sa monnaie. Il ne faut pas regretter la mondialisation. Malgré son indéniable effet de rattrapage pour des pays pauvres, bien peu en ont profité. Avec clarté et humour, ce livre décrit le monde qui vient. Un univers où les classes moyennes tiendront leur revanche et où le parasitisme des mafias volera en éclats.La grande évasion: santé, richesse et origine des inégalités

sans cesse. Mais c'est en Amérique que cela se passe, pensons-nous. Là-bas, les écoles en sont à payer les enfants s'ils ont de bonnes notes ; les entreprises paient les travailleurs qui font des efforts pour améliorer leur santé Serions-nous à l'abri de ces dérives ? Nous sommes en réalité déjà contaminés. Il est mal de vendre le droit de faire du tort aux autres. Pourquoi alors acceptons-nous l'une des mesures phares sur le changement climatique, à savoir le marché des droits à polluer, qui permet à certains d'aller au-delà de leur permis démission en payant ceux qui se restreignent davantage ? Nous ne confondons pas l'amour vénal et l'amour tout court. Pourquoi alors acceptons-nous que lINSEE inclue dans la richesse nationale le temps que les parents passent à s'occuper des enfants au tarif de la baby-sitter ? Nous n'avons pas encore réfléchi à ce que devrait être la place du marché dans une société démocratique et juste. Ce livre, déjà un best-seller mondial, nous y aide puissamment. " -- 4e de couv.

Hope for the hopeless: the Charles Mulli mission
By Paul H Boge, Marina H Hofman Willard. 2012
Charles Mulli was abused by his father and abandoned by his family. Forced to beg from hut to hut in…
Kenya to survive, Mulli worked his way out of poverty and became a wealthy businessman, but never forgot the struggle of street children. Hearing the call of God, Mulli sold everything he owned and began rescuing street children from the slums of Kenya and gave them a home at Mully Children's Family. His journey of faith challenged him to trust Christ in desperate times, confront evil forces and believe in God for even greater miracles of healing and deliverance.

By Wolfgang Streeck. 2016
After years of ill health, capitalism is now in a critical condition. Growth has given way to stagnation; inequality is…
leading to instability; and confidence in the money economy has all but evaporated. Streeck argues that the world is about to change. The marriage between democracy and capitalism, ill-suited partners brought together in the shadow of World War Two, is coming to an end. The regulatory institutions that once restrained the financial sector’s excesses have collapsed and, after the final victory of capitalism at the end of the Cold War, there is no political agency capable of rolling back the liberalization of the markets. Ours has become a world defined by declining growth, oligarchic rule, a shrinking public sphere, institutional corruption and international anarchy, and no cure to these ills is at hand. 2016.I will love you forever: a true story about finding life, hope, and healing while caring for hospice babies
