Bio

Ph.D, I come from the tradition of sociology of the imagination. I think at the consultancy Eranos, write at CNRS Editions, edit at Les Cahiers européens de l'imaginaire and teach at Sciences Po.

I'm passionate about

The riddle of the social bond

An idea worth spreading

The future is a social phenomena. Not the future there is (that which is bound to happen to all of us) but the future we spend our time thinking about as a collectivity. Building the future is the occupation of men of the present. In that sense, society is not the sum of the individuals that compose it, but the empty space between them, which will be filled with plans, desires, hopes, love, assumptions, debts, memories, promises; the very fabric of which weaves a common destiny.
