Technologies et coopération Internet ne nous rend pas seul, soulignions-nous dernièrement. Mais en quoi nous aide-t-il à coopérer entre nous ? Dans son nouveau livre, Ensemble : les plaisirs rituels et la politique de la coopération (Amazon, extraits), le sociologue Richard Sennett, enseignant à la l’école d’économie de Londres et à l’université de New York, s’est intéressé à la coopération.
