'' Dans une société où même le temps du loisir doit être comblé par des activités , nous courons, nous…
courons... jusqu'à ce qu'advienne la grande fatigue. Lorsque nous nous heurtons à la frustration et à l'impuissance, quand le chemin que nous avons pris ne nous a finalement menés nulle part, nous nous sentons vidés, dépossédés de tout désir. Anselm Grün nous montre comment faire face à ces moments d'angoisse voire d'effondrement, qui peuvent dès lors être saisis comme autant d'occasions de revenir vers nous-mêmes. En effet, ces grandes fatigues ont la capacité insoupçonnée de nous mener vers l'essentiel de notre vie : le rythme de notre propre âme et de notre corps afin de retrouver notre source intérieure.

grâce à son travail, son mérite, ses efforts, quel que soit son milieu d'origine - ne l'est plus aujourd'hui. Pourquoi ? Parce que les inégalités n'ont jamais été aussi fortes, et la mobilité sociale jamais aussi réduite. Un cercle infernal voit la richesse et le pouvoir se concentrer dans les mains d'une infime minorité, qui applique la vile maxime d'Adam Smith : Tout pour nous, rien pour les autres. Noam Chomsky appelle au réveil de la majorité, aux innombrables petits actes de personnes anonymes. Ce sont ces derniers qui pourront faire basculer notre avenir. 2017.

casts a clear, cold, patient eye on the economic facts of life. What are the ten principles of concentration of wealth and power at work in America today? They're simple enough: reduce democracy, shape ideology, redesign the economy, shift the burden onto the poor and middle classes, attack the solidarity of the people, let special interests run the regulators, engineer election results, use fear and the power of the state to keep the rabble in line, manufacture consent, marginalize the population. Chomsky devotes a chapter to each of these ten principles, and adds readings from some of the core texts that have influenced his thinking to bolster his argument. 2017.By Ron Rhodes. 1993
