The event brings together a number of [lire plus]

Marc Delachaussée : A great illustration of the social economy

A great illustration of the social economy Marc Delachaussée, a member of the FEDE Panel of Experts, has just created a committee of experts within his own company! Its members have diverse backgrounds (law, economics and accounting) and intend to pool their skills to help businesses in difficulty. Inspired by the social economy, the initiative aims, among other things, to help prevent bankruptcies. Marc Delachaussée is also a teacher at Cergy Pontoise University, where he teaches business finance. His theoretical and applied activities should soon result in a book arguing for the relevance of an operational and humanist approach to finance.

Jean-Jacques Urvoy

Qu’est-ce qu’on Lacan pour être heureux? [What do we Lacan to be happy?] Qu’est-ce qu’on Lacan pour être heureux? Is the title of the latest book by Jean-Jacques Urvoy, a member of the FEDE Panel of Experts. Jean-Jacques Urvoy is a psychoanalyst, designer, teacher and writer. His latest book argues for a subtle new position in the field of personal development – operational psychoanalysis. What exactly is it? BOOK SUMMARY Perhaps you’re aware that something is not quite right in your life, but you keep putting off the decision to act. You have, however, tried various methods, including psychoanalysis and personal development coaching. What if you combined the two? Operational psychoanalysis is short and proactive. Face-to-face coaching sessions are organised both before and after the analysis. It has four phases: [lire plus]

Patrick Vieu

Patrick Vieu: ‘We should build rather than undergo globalisation’ A graduate of the ENA ("Léon Gambetta" class of 1991-1993) and Sciences Po Paris, Patrick Vieu also has a PhD in philosophy. Among his various posts, from 2012-2014 he was the French President’s Advisor on the Environment and the Regions, focusing on transport and sustainable development. A member of the FEDE’s Academic Council, in this interview he shares his views on globalisation. ‘We should build rather than undergo globalisation’… Nice phrasing, but what does it mean?  We can manage the demographic, environmental and migration-related challenges of globalisation if we are able to produce, collectively, a representation of the world that the majority of people can approve. Rather than a globalisation based on forced interdependencies, we need a globalisation based on active [lire plus]

Jean-Pierre Ferret director of Périgueux Business School

Jean-Pierre Ferret: ‘Teaching goes beyond academic progress’ Founder (1997) and Director of the Périgueux Business School – Alliance Européenne, Jean-Pierre Ferret combines rigour, innovation and ambition. He tells us about his passion for education and his determination to meet students’ needs.   Can you tell us about your career so far? Following a master’s in law and a degree from Sciences Po Paris, I taught courses in various BTS [vocational] programmes in the Paris region. My students were wonderful and very motivated, but I had the feeling that their needs were not really being met. Is that why you set up your own institution?  Yes. I think teaching should first and foremost help students to broaden their horizons. For that reason, our students are encouraged to go to the opera here [lire plus]

Michel Maffesoli’s views on the recent French municipal elections

Michel Maffesoli : ‘Today’s modern democratic ideal has expired’ Michel Maffesoli, honorary professor at the Sorbonne and a founding member of the FEDE’s Academic Council, is a leading figure in European intellectual circles. While his analyses tend to stir up and unsettle his audience, hey are always full of sense. Read on to find out his views on the recent French municipal elections. What’s your reaction to the results of the recent elections? What’s striking is not so much the rise of the greens (a few groups of would-be green, power-starved yuppies have capitalised on the trend for green) but rather the tremendous lack of interest for the local elections amongst ordinary people. Nobody – be it the traditional parties, the pseudo-new forms of representation (the ‘neither left-wingers nor right-wingers’ of [lire plus]
