Description
Summary:"Philippe Herzog is not content with this somewhat despairing outlook in which the players seems to have forgotten their cultural footing and lost touch with their sense of responsibility. Expressing convictions that defy the established political order, he invites us to travel and suggests we should “journey more often”: into our history to rediscover our values and revitalize them: around Europe and throughout the world to become open to others and to understand the people with whom we are forging our future. Philippe Herzog is highly committed individual/. As an economist and political militant, he is working to ensure a deep transformation of European capitalism. He is rekindling the European perspective as a utopia that calls for new ethics, new forms of political action and innovative projects. This essay is both an appeal and an outstanding contribution to the public debate on revitalizing Europe."
