Dans cet épisode, je reçois Fanny Picard, associée fondatrice d'Alter Equity, pour une discussion autour de la finance à impact, de ce que ça signifie concrètement d'investir avec une thèse sociale et environnementale — et de la ténacité que ça demande.Nous avons parlé :De la création d'Alter Equity avant l'existence même du terme "finance à impact" : en 2007, ni les institutionnels, ni le grand public ne connaissaient ce vocabulaire Des 9 années nécessaires pour lever le premier fonds de seulement 41,5 millions d'euros, et des raisons pour lesquelles les institutionnels refusaient d'y croire — dont l'idée, alors dominante, que la seule responsabilité de l'entreprise est de maximiser son profit Du "business plan extra-financier" : un outil propriétaire qu'Alter Equity impose à ses participations, avec 12 critères RSE obligatoires, un référentiel sur-mesure, et une pondération des résultats qui conditionne la rémunération variable des dirigeants — et de l'équipe d'Alter Equity elle-mêmeDe deux investissements emblématiques : Murphy, qui a changé le comportement des consommateurs face à la réparation de l'électroménager, et Open Airlines, revendue plus de dix fois la mise, qui a permis d'éviter l'émission de 6,9 millions de tonnes de CO2 — soit environ 2% des émissions annuelles de la FranceDu paradoxe du marché actuel de la levée de fonds : plus de fonds cherchent à lever, mais les investisseurs reçoivent en moyenne moitié moins de retours qu'historiquement — et pourtant Alter Equity lève son troisième fonds au-dessus du niveau du précédentDe la double philosophie qui structure l'équipe : rigueur héritée du monde des fusions-acquisitions chez Rothschild, et bienveillance ancrée dans une conception du respect inspirée de Lévinas — "face au visage de l'autre, ma responsabilité est infinie"Du regard de Fanny sur l'écosystème européen de la finance durable face au backlash américain : 78% des Français attachés à la transition énergétique, 95% souhaitant que les marques s'engagent en RSE — et la Chine, discrètement, en train de devenir pionnière sur le photovoltaïque et le véhicule électriqueUn épisode dense, exigeant et humain, porté par une conviction que Fanny a mise deux décennies à voir reconnue.Recommandation de notre invité : "Effondrement" de Jared Diamond https://share.google/0ejkHLaBiAdfPHJIdLiens utiles:Fanny Picard: https://www.linkedin.com/in/fanny-picard-6507a35/Alter Equity: http://alter-equity.com***************************Finscale, c'est bien plus qu'un podcast.

Ancient geography, not inherent superiority, explains global power imbalances. This book summary reveals the surprising origins of societal dominance.

Kolonialisierung ist auf den ersten Blick kein sonderlich biologisches Thema. Wenn man aber mal drüber nachdenkt, dann fragt man sich vielleicht, warum eigentlich Europa den Rest der Welt kolonialisiert hat und nicht andersrum. Ein paar Ideen, welche geografischen und biologischen Zufälle dazu beigetragen haben könnten, bespricht Jared Diamond in seinem weit bekannten Buch “guns, germs and steel”. Und wir versuchen hier mal, das ganze verständlich zusammenzufassen. Viel Spaß!

Quand on pense au luxe français, certaines maisons incarnent à elles seules un mélange rare : indépendance, transmission familiale et capacité à se réinventer sans jamais perdre leur âme. Longchamp en fait partie.Pour la première fois dans ce podcast, j'ai choisi de donner la parole à 2 voix : Jean Cassegrain, président de Longchamp à l'échelle mondiale, et son fils Hector Cassegrain, directeur France.Dans cet échange, on a parlé de ce qui fait la singularité d'une maison familiale devenue une icône du luxe. Comment transmettre un héritage sans jamais le figer ? Comment préserver une identité forte tout en osant la réinventer ? Comment transformer une boutique en véritable lieu d'expérience ? Et bien sûr, comment un sac comme le Pliage peut devenir à la fois un symbole de continuité et d'audace.Mais au-delà de ces questions de stratégie, Jean et Hector se livrent avec une sincérité rare : sur leurs valeurs, leur attachement profond à la France, leur rapport au temps long… et ce que cela implique, très concrètement, de travailler en famille.C'est une plongée unique dans les coulisses d'une maison que j'admire profondément, et dont l'histoire résonne bien au-delà du monde du luxe.Bonne écoute !Notes et références de l'épisode :

Kitap Kulübü'müzün 55.buluşmasında Jared Diamond'ın Tüfek, Mikrop ve Çelik adlı kitabını konuştuk.Diamond kitapta, insanlık tarihindeki eşitsizliklerin nedenlerini bireylerin zekâsı ya da yetenekleriyle değil, yaşanılan coğrafyanın sunduğu avantajlarla açıklamaya çalışıyor. Özellikle tarımın ve hayvan evcilleştirmenin ilk başladığı bölgelerin, yiyecek üretimi sayesinde kalabalık topluluklara ve uzmanlaşmaya olanak sağladığını savunuyor. Bu durumun; teknolojik ilerleme, siyasi örgütlenme, yazının gelişimi ve hastalıklara bağışıklık gibi avantajlara zemin hazırladığını iddia ediyor. Avrasya kıtasının doğu-batı yönündeki iklimsel benzerliği sayesinde bu gelişmelerin yayılması daha kolay olduğunu; diğer kıtalardaki toplumların ise bu tür avantajlardan mahrum kaldığını ifade ediyor.Kitap yayımlandığı 1997 yılından bu yana sosyal bilimler, tarih ve coğrafya alanlarında çığır açıcı bir eser olarak kabul edilmiş. Akademik disiplinler arasında köprü kurarak tarihsel gelişmeleri ekoloji, biyoloji ve coğrafya ile ilişkilendirmiş. Pulitzer Ödülü başta olmak üzere pek çok prestijli ödül alan eser, özellikle “ırkçı” açıklamalara alternatif sunması, Batı'nın üstünlüğünü doğal olmayan nedenlerle açıklayan görüşlere bilimsel bir karşılık olması açısından ayrı bir öneme sahip. Geniş kitlelere ulaşması, popüler bilim kitapları arasında uzun süre ilk sıralarda yer almasına neden olmuş.Ancak kitap eleştirilerden de azade değil. Pek çok akademisyen, Diamond'ın tarihsel süreci fazla indirgemeci bir yaklaşımla ele aldığını ve kültürel, politik, ideolojik faktörleri geri planda bıraktığını savundu. İnsan iradesine, liderliğe ya da tesadüfi olaylara neredeyse hiç yer vermemesi; tarihin çok boyutlu doğasını yansıtmadığı gerekçesiyle eleştirildi. Ayrıca bazı bölgelerin –özellikle Afrika kıtasının– tarihsel rolünün yeterince işlenmemesi ve istisnai örneklerin dışarıda bırakılması da kitapta eksik kalan noktalar arasında gösterildi. Tüm bunlara rağmen Tüfek, Mikrop ve Çelik, tarihsel eşitsizliklerin kökenini anlamaya yönelik tartışmaları hem akademide hem toplumda derinleştiren öncü bir eser olarak konumunu koruyor.Okuması detaylı bilimsel açıklamalar nedeniyle biraz zorlayıcı ama özellikle tarih, antropoloji gibi sosyal bilimlere meraklıysanız okumanızı tavsiye ediyoruz.Bu bölümde görüşlerine yer verebildiğim arkadaşlarım (02:41) Feyza Demir, (12:27) Halime Özben Hacı, (15:22) Dilek Geçit, (16:27) Mete Yurtsever, (17:13) Dilek Geçit ve (22:11) Bahadır BalibaşaSupport the show

Hi friends! We're taking a much-needed summer pause—we'll have new episodes for you later in September. In the meanwhile, enjoy this pick from our archives! ------- [originally aired June 1, 2023] There's a common story about the human past that goes something like this. For a few hundred thousand years during the Stone Age we were kind of limping along as a species, in a bit of a cognitive rut, let's say. But then, quite suddenly, around 30 or 40 thousand years ago in Europe, we really started to come into our own. All of a sudden we became masters of art and ornament, of symbolism and abstract thinking. This story of a kind of "cognitive revolution" in the Upper Paleolithic has been a mainstay of popular discourse for decades. I'm guessing you're familiar with it. It's been discussed in influential books by Jared Diamond and Yuval Harari; you can read about it on Wikipedia. What you may not know is that this story, compelling as it may be, is almost certainly wrong. My first guest today is Dr. Eleanor Scerri, an archaeologist at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Human History, where she heads the Pan-African Evolution research group. My second guest is Dr. Manuel Will, an archaeologist and Lecturer at the University of Tübingen in Germany. Together, Eleanor and Manuel are authors of a new paper titled 'The revolution that still isn't: The origins of behavioral complexity in Homo sapiens.' In the paper, they pull together a wealth of evidence showing that there really was no cognitive revolution—no one watershed moment in time and space. Rather, the origins of modern human cognition and culture are to be found not in one part of Europe but across Africa. And they're also to be found much earlier than that classic picture suggests.  Here, we talk about the “cognitive revolution" model and why it has endured. We discuss a seminal paper from the year 2000 that first influentially challenged the revolution model. We talk about the latest evidence of complex cognition from the Middle Stone Age in Africa—including the perforation of marine shells to make necklaces; and the use of ochre for engraving, painting, and even sunblock. We discuss how, though the same complex cognitive abilities were likely in place for the last few hundred thousand years, those abilities were often expressed patchily in different parts of the world at different times. And we consider the factors that led to this patchy expression, especially changes in population size.   I confess I was always a bit taken with this whole "cognitive revolution" idea. It had a certain mystery and allure. This new picture that's taking its place is certainly a bit messier, but no less fascinating. And, more importantly, it's truer to the complexities of the human saga.  Alright friends, on to my conversation with Eleanor Scerri & Manuel Will. Enjoy!   A transcript of this episode is available here.   Notes and links 3:30 – The paper by Dr. Scerri and Dr. Will we discuss in this episode is here. Their paper updates and pays tribute to a classic paper by McBrearty and Brooks, published in 2000. 6:00 – The classic “cognitive revolution” model sometimes discussed under the banner of “behavioral modernity” or the “Great Leap Forward.” It has been recently featured, for instance, in Harari's Sapiens. 11:00 – Dr. Scerri has written extensively on debates about where humans evolved within Africa—see, e.g., this paper.  18:00 – A study of perforated marine shells in North Africa during the Middle Stone Age. A paper by Dr. Will and colleagues about the use of various marine resources during this period.  23:00 – A paper describing the uses of ochre across Africa during the Middle Stone Age. Another paper describing evidence for ochre processing 100,000 years ago at Blombos Cave in South Africa. At the same site, engraved pieces of ochre have been found. 27:00 – A study examining the evidence that ochre was used as an adhesive. 30:00 – For a recent review of the concept of “cumulative culture,” see here. We discussed the concept of “cumulative culture” in our earlier episode with Dr. Cristine Legare.  37:00 – For an overview of the career of the human brain and the timing of various changes, see our earlier episode with Dr. Jeremy DeSilva. 38:00 – An influential study on the role of demography in the emergence of complex human behavior. 41:00 – On the idea that distinctive human intelligence is due in large part to culture and our abilities to acquire cultural knowledge, see Henrich's The Secret of Our Success. See also our earlier episode with Dr. Michael Muthukrishna.  45:00 – For discussion of the Neanderthals and why they may have died out, see our earlier episode with Dr. Rebecca Wragg Sykes.    Recommendations Dr. Scerri recommends research on the oldest Homo sapiens fossils, found in Morocco and described here, and new research on the evidence for the widespread burning of landscapes in Malawi, described here.  Dr. Will recommends the forthcoming update of Peter Mitchell's book, The Archaeology of Southern Africa.

In this episode of the Three Inning Fan Show with Kelley Franco, Jared Diamond, sports columnist for the Wall Street Journal, discusses his recent piece on The Battery in Atlanta, the most envied stadium setup in MLB. The Battery is not just a ballpark, but a mixed-use development that has become a model for other sports organizations. It contains apartments, offices, hotels, restaurants, a concert venue, a movie theater, and other entertainment options – even a mechanical bull. What's particularly of interest to other sports club owners? The revenue that's being created by The Battery, which does not have to be shared with other baseball clubs under MLB's revenue sharing system. And they are raking it in. Join Kelley and Jared as they discuss this sports venue that could just be the stadium setup of the future. And of course don't miss Jared's take on…what's good to eat while watching the ballgame.

This Flashback Friday and 10th show is from episode 340, published last Sep 25, 2013. Renowned author, physiologist, evolutionary biologist and bio geographer, Dr. Jared Diamond, joins Jason Hartman for a discussion of his newest book, The World Until Yesterday. Dr. Diamond's unique background has shaped his integrated version of human history. He posits that success – and failure – depends on how well societies adapt to their changing environment. Dr. Diamond is also a medical researcher and professor of physiology at the UCLA School of Medicine. His book "Guns, Germs and Steel" won a Pulitzer Prize and "The Third Chimpanzee" was a best-selling award winner. Elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the National Academy of Sciences and the American Philosophical Society, Professor Diamond is a MacArthur Fellow who has published over 200 articles in Discover, Natural History, Nature and Geo magazines. In his books Guns, Germs and Steel and Collapse (and the popular PBS and National Geographic documentaries they inspired), big-picture scholar Jared Diamond explores civilizations and why they all seem to fall. Now in his latest book, The World Until Yesterday, Diamond examines the traditional societies of New Guinea -- and discovers that modern civilization is only our latest solution to survival.     Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class:  Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com

Tikopia est une île du Pacifque (Salomon). Près de 2000 habitants s'entassent sur ce confetto de 5 km2, soit une densité de 400 ha/km2 (4x + qu'en France !).Habitée depuis 3 000 ans. Elle a été aperçue pour la première fois par des Européens en 1606. Elle a été décrite par Dumont d'Urville en 1828, qui enquêtait sur la disparition de l'expédition de La Pérouse.En 1868, Jules Verne immortalise l'île dans Vingt mille lieues sous les mers, avec l'escale du capitaine Nemo.En 2018, le roi de l'île, Ti Namo se rend à Grenoble pour alerter l'Occident sur les conséquences du réchauffement climatique : submersion et cyclones à répétition.Dans la lignée de De l'inégalité parmi les sociétés (1997), Jared Diamond a étudié Tikopia dans son livre Effondrement : Comment les sociétés décident de leur disparition ou de leur survie (2005).Tikopia a donné son nom au média en ligne Tikographie.

The Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire provides a great opportunity to think about many complex historical questions. How should we think about topics of colonialism and conquest from a modern lens? How are morality and historical narrative closely tied together? How did Spanish people and Mexica people think about the conquest both at the time and deep into the future? The answers to these questions give insight into how morality and psychology are at the center of many historical stories.  This is Part VI in a series on the rise, fall, and enduring legacy of the Aztec Empire. In this episode I discuss colonialist narratives of history, the "civilizing mission" and how morality was at the center of the Spanish conquest, the Quetzocoatl narrative of the Spanish conquest, Jared Diamond's Guns Germs and Steel hypothesis, and how both sides of this conflict felt cognitive dissonance at the time and in their later tellings of their histories. -Consider Supporting the Podcast!- Leave a rating or review on apple podcasts or spotify!

The answer may surprise you…Why do 'good' people support evil leaders? What allure does fascism hold that enables it to garner popular support? To what extent are ordinary people responsible for the development of authoritarian evil? This 13 part podcast series explores these massive questions and more through the lens of Nazi Germany and the ordinary people who collaborated or resisted as the Third Reich expanded.

As the secrets of the House deepen and the mystery of his life becomes more sinister, Piranesi must discover who he is and how this brings him closer to the “Great and Secret Knowledge” that the House contains. Touching on themes of memory, identity, mental health, knowledge, reason, experience, meaning, reflection, ideals, and more…Piranesi will be remembered as one of the great books of the 21st century.

Persians. Romans. Chinese. Guptas. Abbasids. Mongols. British. The list of the world's largest empires is a list of different peoples of Eurasia. With the sole exception of ancient Egypt, the Eurasian landmass has been the breeding ground for the largest empire of each moment in history. Why has Eurasia been so prone to large empires? Similarly, why did so many technological breakthroughs — from writing to gunpowder — occur in Eurasia? And how did these broader patterns of Eurasian history enable the dark chapters of European colonialism? These questions constitute some of the “broadest patterns of history”, to quote Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs, and Steel. Indeed, these are not only the broad contours of the last few millennia: searching for answers, we need to dig deep into the origins of agriculture and beyond. My guest today, ⁠Ideen Riahi⁠, has been digging very deep indeed. Building on Diamond's original project, Riahi has traced the deepest roots behind Eurasia's outsized power in human history. And if he is correct, these roots extend to periods way before the dawn of agriculture. In this episode, we discuss topics such as: The “Why Eurasia?” questions: What does it mean? What answers do we have? And is this a meaningful question to start with? Environmental determinism vs environmental realism Did the activities of our Ice Age ancestors prepare Eurasian lands for farms, cows, and cavalries? Riahi's case against genetic explanations of Eurasian dominance and Europe's rise As always, we finish with my guest's reflections on humanity.

Nech by sa zdalo akokoľvek mocné, bohaté či až po uši vyzbrojené, nejestvuje impérium, ktoré by napokon nepadlo. Nepretrvala Rímska ríša, upadla a zanikla Osmanská ríša a ani Britské impérium, o ktorom sa hovorilo, že nad ním slnko nezapadá, už dnes nejestvuje. Preto by azda najjednoduchšie poučenie z dejín mohlo znieť, že nič netrvá večne. V histórii však hľadáme aj poučenie a proces úpadku kedysi mocných ríš ponúka príťažlivý námet na úvahy. Aké príčiny, faktory a okolnosti sa rozhodujúcim spôsobom podieľali na rozklade a definitívnom zániku rozľahlých ríš? Dokážeme si jednotlivé príklady zo vzdialenejšej či blízkej minulosti racionalizovať a vyvodiť z nich konkrétne závery? A je vôbec možné zvrátiť proces úpadku a nastaviť spätný chod? Tieto či iné otázky fascinujú historikov, archeológov, politológov a ďalších spoločenských vedcov po celom svete. Knihy od takých autorov ako Jared Diamond, Nail Ferguson, ale aj Arnold Toynbee, ktorí sa vo väčšej či menšej miere uvedenej téme venujú či venovali, patria k najčítanejším a obraz úpadku či rovno nekontrolovaného pádu impéria je vďačnou témou aj v populárnej kultúre. Skrátka, skaza a zánik človeka nikdy neprestanú fascinovať. A rovnako fascinujúci pohľad na dejiny ľudstva ponúka aj nová kniha od vydavateľstva Premedia s titulom Pády impérií, ktorá na jednom mieste sústreďuje analýzy slovenských a českých vedcov o konkrétnych historických kapitolách od staroveku až po nedávnu minulosť. Jaro Valent z časopisu Historická revue sa rozprával so spoluautormi a editormi spomínanej knihy, historikmi Branislavom Kovárom z Archeologického ústavu SAV a s Jakubom Drábikom z Anglo-American University v Prahe. *Podporte podcast Dejiny v aplikácii Toldo na sme.sk/extradejiny. – Ak máte pre nás spätnú väzbu, odkaz alebo nápad, napíšte nám na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠jaroslav.valent@petitpress.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Všetky podcasty denníka SME nájdete na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sme.sk/podcasty⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Odoberajte aj denný newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SME.sk⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ s najdôležitejšími správami na ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠sme.sk/suhrnsme⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – Ďakujeme, že počúvate podcast Dejiny.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
