Book Description
L'économie capitaliste néo-libérale est-elle la voie unique ? Non, répond Thierry Jeantet, les mutuelles, les coopératives et les associations - donc l'Economie sociale - montrent qu'il existe une façon plus solidaire de créer des richesses aussi bien dans la sphère marchande que dans la sphère non marchande. Partout en Europe, on trouve des entreprises, des organisations dans lesquelles prévalent le principe de non-domination du capital et celui du contrôle démocratique : il y aurait d'ailleurs 248 millions de membres de coopérative, de mutuelle ou d'association sur 370 millions d'habitants en Europe ! Ces structures agissent dans les domaines les plus divers : social, culturel, financier, agricole, industriel ou de la pêche... Elles sont encore trop mal connues. Face à de grands défis comme la mondialisation, la transformation du travail et la crise sociale, elles représentent une chance particulière de voir établies les conditions d'une croissance à dimension humaine et, au-delà, de changer la donne en affirmant la primauté du civique et du social sur l'économique et le monétaire. Pour cela, elles doivent à la fois renforcer et moderniser leur identité, faire fructifier leurs propres principes (démocratie, non-lucrativité, solidarité, recherche du meilleur rapport qualité-prix, épanouissement de la personne, etc.), et donc innover. L'auteur campe le paysage de l'Economie sociale sans en esquiver les ombres. Surtout, il en présente une vue dynamique et prospective. A partir de propositions concrètes, il en fait une alternative au système dominant. Il montre que les citoyens acteurs doivent jouer un rôle déterminant dans l'émergence d'une Europe différente, plus attachante, à nouveau porteuse d'avenir. Il prône un peu plus de démocratie en toutes choses.

Critical Republicanism
Author: Cécile Laborde
Publisher: OUP Oxford
ISBN: 0191563978
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 397
Book Description
The first comprehensive analysis of the philosophical issues raised by the hijab controversy in France, this book also conducts a dialogue between contemporary Anglo-American and French political theory and defends a progressive republican solution to so-called multicultural conflicts in contemporary societies. It critically assesses the official republican philosophy of laïcité which purported to justify the 2004 ban on religious signs in schools. Laïcité is shown to encompass a comprehensive theory of republican citizenship, centered on three ideals: equality (secular neutrality of the public sphere), liberty (individual autonomy and emancipation) and fraternity (civic loyalty to the community of citizens). Challenging official interpretations of laïcité, the book then puts forward a critical republicanism which does not support the hijab ban, yet upholds a revised interpretation of three central republican commitments: secularism, non-domination and civic solidarity. Thus, it articulates a version of secularism which squarely addresses the problem of status quo bias - the fact that Western societies are historically not neutral towards all religions. It also defends a vision of female emancipation which rejects the coercive paternalism inherent in the regulation of religious dress, yet does not leave individuals unaided in the face of religious and secular, patriarchal and ethnocentric domination. Finally, the book outlines a theory of immigrant integration which places the burden of civic integration on basic socio-political institutions, rather than on citizens themselves. Critical republicanism proposes an entirely new approach to the management of religious and cultural pluralism, centred on the pursuit of the progressive ideal of non-domination in existing, non-ideal societies. Oxford Political Theory presents the best new work in contemporary political theory. It is intended to be broad in scope, including original contributions to political philosophy, and also work in applied political theory. The series will contain works of outstanding quality with no restriction as to approach or subject matter. Series Editors: Will Kymlicka, David Miller, and Alan Ryan.

ISBN: 1786636425
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
An investigation into what makes the consistency of political groupings What should we do with the ideals of internationalism, the withering away of state and horizontality? Probably start by thinking seriously about them. That is to say, about their conditions of possibility (or impossibility), rather than sticking to the wishful thinking which believes that for them to happen it is enough to want them. Humanity exists neither as a dust cloud of separate individuals nor as a unified world political community. It exists fragmented into distinct finite wholes, the forms of which have varied considerably throughout history - the nation-state being only one among many, and certainly not the last. What are the forces that produce this fragmentation, engender such groupings and prevent them from being perfectly horizontal, but also lead them to disappear, merge, or change form? It is questions such as these that this book explores, drawing on Spinoza's political philosophy and especially his two central concepts of multitudo and imperium.
