AgoraVox le média citoyen : On parle beaucoup depuis quelques années de nouvelles formes de croissance équitable, de richesses mieux partagées, bref d’un aggiornamento et d’une refondation de certains principes économiques de base. Parmi d’autres, Jacques Attali s’est intéressé à la gratuité, au nomadisme croissant de l’homo economicus, certains autres se précoccupent quant à eux de quantifier certaines formes de richesses nouvelles dans un monde en changement. Selon la théorie économique classique, il y a création de richesses lorsqu’une entité, économique ou politique, produit des biens et des services, voire de la valeur ajoutée, et que simultanément cette entité est en mesure soit de vendre soit d’échanger cette production contre d’autres biens ou services ou contre de la monnaie, mesure communément admise de ladite richesse ou substitut pratique pour l’échange de celle-ci.

Brooks Not income equality, but mobility and opportunity The United States is a rich nation getting richer. According to the U.S. Reason to celebrate? Rising inequality makes for good political fodder. Edwards is one of a group of liberal politicians, policymakers, and social activists who want to reduce economic inequality through greater taxation and redistribution of wealth. Were these people somehow unrepresentative of America?

The egalitarians’ argument usually starts with the assertion that prosperity is all relative. And the way to do that, of course, is to tax the haves and redistribute their income to the have-nots. One of the many problems with the egalitarians’ line of reasoning is that it misinterprets the experimental evidence. But there is another, more fundamental, reason that the arguments linking economic inequality to unhappiness are mistaken. The same result holds at the individual level. Ivan Illich. Ivan Illich became well known in 1970, when he published Deschooling Society which argued that the top-down management of schools makes students powerless - and that the same top-down management is typical of the modern, technological economy that prevents people from learning. Tools for Conviviality made the same criticism of technology generally.

Along with Energy and Equity, this book made Ivan Illich one of the most important theorists of the radical ecology movement of the 1970s. Illich has the following works on the web: Deschooling Society: At last, the entire text of one of Illich's most important works is available on line. This book made Ivan Illich famous, arguing that schooling is a model of our centralized consumer society. Tools for Conviviality: The entire text of another of Illich's most important works, the most general statement of his view about technology.

La résistance selon Ivan Illich. L’obsession de la santé parfaite. Quand on considère en historien notre médecine, c’est-à-dire la médecine dans le monde occidental, on se tourne inévitablement vers la ville de Bologne, en Italie. C’est dans cette cité que l’ ars medendi et curandi s’est séparé, en tant que discipline, de la théologie, de la philosophie et du droit. C’est là que, par le choix d’une petite partie des écrits de Galien, le corps de la médecine a établi sa souveraineté sur un territoire distinct de celui d’Aristote ou de Cicéron. C’est à Bologne que la discipline dont le sujet est la douleur, l’angoisse et la mort a été réintégrée dans le domaine de la sagesse ; et que fut dépassée une fragmentation qui n’a jamais été opérée dans le monde islamique, où le titre de Hakim désigne, tout à la fois, le scientifique, le philosophe et le guérisseur.
