In 1952, at the height of Soviet power, Ludwig von Mises stood in the San Francisco Public Library and systematically dismantled Marx—not just his economics, but his philosophy, his theory of history, and his manipulation of language. This is the fifth of nine lectures, published in 2006 as Marxism Unmasked.Mises examines why Marxism went essentially unchallenged for decades—not because its arguments were strong, but because its opponents rarely engaged its philosophical foundations. He traces the intellectual lineage from Saint-Simon's totalitarian world council through Comte's positivism to Marx's dialectical materialism, showing how each system claimed to have discovered the final truth and therefore demanded the end of free inquiry. Along the way, Mises dismantles the conflation of Marxism with Freudian psychoanalysis, explains why governments have a built-in bias toward socialism, and reveals that the word "organize" entered political language as a Napoleonic term meaning to treat individuals as a builder treats stones. The essay's central insight is deceptively simple: the debate was never between planning and chaos. It was always between the plan of the dictator and the plans of free individuals—and the police exist to settle the dispute.

Franck Ferrand vous emmène au cœur d'un drame familial qui a secoué la cour du Roi-Soleil en 1712. Alors que le vieux roi Louis XIV vit ses dernières années, une série de décès frappe sa descendance directe, laissant planer le doute sur les véritables causes de ces disparitions. Le duc et la duchesse de Bourgogne, ainsi que leur fils aîné, le nouveau dauphin, s'éteignent dans des circonstances mystérieuses, alimentant les rumeurs de complot et d'empoisonnement. Le récit passionnant de Franck Ferrand nous plonge dans les intrigues de la cour, où le duc d'Orléans, neveu du roi, est soupçonné d'être l'instigateur de ces tragédies. Les témoignages du duc de Saint-Simon et de Madame Palatine, proches du prince, alimentent ces soupçons, tandis que Madame de Maintenon, épouse secrète de Louis XIV, semble jouer un rôle trouble dans la diffusion de ces rumeurs malveillantes. Mais au-delà des bruits de couloir, qu'en est-il réellement ? Les médecins restent divisés sur les causes des décès, entre rougeole, septicémie et possibles empoisonnements. Et que cachaient les documents compromettants retrouvés dans les affaires du duc et de la duchesse de Bourgogne ? Franck Ferrand décortique avec passion cette période trouble, où la mort d'une partie de la famille royale a jeté le trouble jusque dans l'entourage du Roi-Soleil.

Jesús Huerta de Soto traces the Austrian school's intellectual roots from the Spanish scholastics to Rothbard, making the case that anarcho-capitalism is the natural endpoint of the classical liberal tradition.The Ludwig von Mises Memorial Lecture, sponsored by Yousif Almoayyed.The Austrian Economics Research Conference is the international, interdisciplinary meeting of the Austrian school, bringing together leading scholars doing research in this vibrant and influential intellectual tradition.Full Text version of the Lecture (Submitted by Prof. Huerta de Soto):Thank you very much to the Mises Institute and Joe Salerno for his kind introduction as well as for inviting me to deliver this “Ludwig von Mises Memorial Lecture” to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary of Murray N. Rothbard's birthday. It is the second time I visit the Mises Institute to deliver this most important lecture: The first one was almost thirty years ago, back in April 1997, when I delivered a lecture on “The Scholastic Roots of the Austrian School”. In this second opportunity I am very happy to have been able to accept Joe's invitation and to come with a very well represented retinue of ten of my colleagues and doctoral students. All of them are teaching as professors or making their research at our more than twenty-year-old Doctoral and Master Programs in Austrian Economics at King Juan Carlos University back in Madrid, and which is the only one officially approved and with full validity inside the whole European Union. You have already had the opportunity to hear from each one of them a detailed description of the so-called “Madrid Austrian Research Hub” and of all the activities we are developing every year, including the 54 Doctoral Theses on Austrian Economics that have been read up to now in our program. And here you have also copies of the English version of our main books published by Routledge, Edward Elgar, and by the Macmillan Austrian Series edited by my Madrid Colleagues, the German professor Philipp Bagus and the Canadian professor Dave Howden. And you will have the unique opportunity to buy these books that, as you know, have a hefty price of almost 100 pounds each one, at the almost “stolen property” and symbolic price of 5 dollars per copy, thanks to the most generous help of the Spanish Jesús Huerta de Soto Foundation that is helping to finance our participation in this important event.And now what I will do in the next forty minutes is to try to summarize not only my main contributions, but also “The Libertarian Vision of the Scientific and Moral Truth” as we see it from our Austrian School Hub in Madrid. And I will do it by focusing on a series of fundamental points.Precisely, the youngest of all sciences, Economics is the one that has provided Humanity with the most important scientific contributionThe first one is that Economics, being the last science to arrive, or as Mises said, "the youngest of all sciences," has nevertheless achieved the milestone of providing Humanity with the most important scientific contribution. For the first time, and thanks to Economic Science, human beings have discovered and understood that voluntary social cooperation, free from all institutional and systematic external coercion, generates a spontaneous order that cannot be designed nor organized by anyone, and that peacefully and without limits drives the prosperity and expansion of Humankind.This transcendental message of Economic Science, on the one hand, resolves the impossible antithesis of attempting to apply, within the realm of interactions carried out by human beings endowed with free will, the manipulative approach of external entities that human beings have no choice but to use, supported by technology and the natural sciences, in order to dominate the subject of the material world. And on the other hand, this is a radically revolutionary message: for the first time, it has been scientifically demonstrated that states, in any of their forms, are neither necessary nor viable; that Society, understood as a process of voluntary human interactions, does not need anyone to govern it, because it regulates and organizes itself spontaneously; and that the attempt to coordinate Society on the basis of social engineering and state coercive commands is impossible, doomed to failure, and gives rise to all kinds of distortions, social conflicts and violence, that continually hinder and block human progress.Economic science is generalized into a complete Theory of Liberty that makes it possible to reinterpret History and promote the expansion of civilizationThe second point is that Economics has been generalized into a whole Theory of Liberty, understood as the most essential attribute and requirement of human nature. Liberty means that all human actions are carried out voluntarily, based on the principle of non-aggression, and free of external coercion or violence imposed and organized from above by the always minority group of human beings who, under whatever title, exercise any kind of political power.Moreover, Economics dismantles and turns upside down the erroneous and biased account of Thomas Hobbes and his followers. Neither was the "state of nature" a terrifying situation, nor did a supposed "social contract" ever exist or was it necessary to create and maintain a State that would impose order and guarantee peace. What happened was precisely the opposite: natural evolution consisted, above all, in the spontaneous discovery of the great advantages provided by voluntary exchanges and peaceful trade. Systematic and generalized violence, war, and terror arose only with the appearance of States, as coercive institutions composed of the most antisocial and violent human beings, who wanted (and still want) to live at the expense of plundering those citizens who earn their living by working and trading peacefully with each other (Oppenheimer, 1926).Thus, Economics, demonstrates that what Étienne de La Boétie named "voluntary servitude", is an anti-human aberration to which human beings have been subjected for centuries. And that it is not necessary to continue with the resigned habit of obeying the State; nor do governments enjoy an aura of prestige (but are literally "stripped" of any attribute of intellectual or moral superiority); nor is the caste—or “praetorian guard”—of intellectuals, “experts”, and acolytes that surround states and rulers to be regarded as untouchable; nor should we allow ourselves to be seduced and deceived by subsidies or perks, whether supposed or real, with which they seek to purchase the will and secure the loyalty of exploited human beings, so that they will consent, voluntarily and permanently, to their exploitation and servitude (De la Boétie, 1975).Economics is the Science developed by the Austrian School of Economics, which should in fact be known as the Spanish School, as it has its origins in the thinking of our scholastics of the Spanish Golden AgeThe third point is that Economic Science has reached its highest level of development thanks to the Austrian School of Economics. As you know, our school is based on the realism of its analytical assumptions, in the dynamic approach based on the entrepreneurial, creative, and coordinating capacity of every human being, and in the study of the spontaneous and self-regulated order of the social process of voluntary human interactions (Huerta de Soto, 2008). The institutional and multidisciplinary approach of the Austrian School is also very relevant. As a result of the spontaneous social process important institutions emerge which, in turn, make it possible and drive it forward: Law and property rights rooted in human nature and discovered and developed spontaneously outside the state; the family, a basic and essential institution, on which the expansion of Humanity is made possible and consolidated; moral principles, which act as a true "automatic pilot" for liberty and which human beings internalize and transmit from generation to generation, thanks to the family and other community or religious institutions; economic institutions, and in particular, money, which also evolves spontaneously outside the State, and which can and should be considered the social institution par excellence, since by overcoming the problems of barter, it enables the exponential multiplication of voluntary exchanges and human interactions, within which the rest of the social, linguistic, moral, legal, economic, and religious institutions are discovered, shaped, and perfected.Our fourth point is that the first theorists of the spontaneous order emerged in the field of law, led by the great jurists of classical Rome. They were the first ones to understand the organic and evolutionary nature of the social process, and so they became, without being aware of it, the first economists. Their tradition was kept alive throughout the Middle Ages thanks to the Catholic Church and, through thinkers such as Saint Thomas Aquinas, Saint Antoninus of Florence, and Saint Bernardino of Siena, eventually came to influence the Spanish scholastics of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries gathered around the University of Salamanca. As Rothbard demonstrated (Rothbard, 1976) these thinkers of the Spanish Golden Age should be considered the most immediate precedent of the Austrian School of Economics, which, precisely for this reason, should be called the Spanish School of Economics. And in fact, these Spanish scholastics were already able to articulate the following ten essential principles which constitute the theoretical foundation of the Austrian School:Firstly, the subjective theory of value developed by the Bishop of Segovia, Diego de Covarrubias, who as early as 1555 clearly explained that, although the objective nature of wheat is the same in Spain as in America, its price was higher in America because there human beings subjectively valued it much more highly; from this follows the correct relationship between prices and costs set out by Luis Sarabia de la Calle, in the sense that it is market prices that determine costs and not the other way around, as equilibrium theorists mistakenly believe; the Scholastics also realized that equilibrium models and prices lack realism and theoretical meaning because they presuppose a degree of knowledge “so complex that only God, and in no case human beings, could ever acquire it” (in latin “pretium iustum mathematicum licet soli Deo notum”), as already explained by the Jesuit cardinals Juan de Salas in 1617 and Juan de Lugo in 1643, more than three hundred years earlier than Hayek could conclude that “a science which assumes knowledge that can never be acquired is not a Science”; also the dynamic concept of competition is fundamental, understood as a process of rivalry among sellers based on the dynamic conception of market processes developed by Jerónimo Castillo de Bobadilla and Luis de Molina in 1589 and 1597, and that has nothing to do with the static model of "perfect competition" of equilibrium theorists; and also the important contributions of the Spanish Scholastics related with capital theory, business cycles, and the effects of fiduciary media generated by banks; so, particular emphasis should be placed on the rediscovery of the principle of time preference by Martín de Azpilcueta, following what Lessines had already stated in 1285; as well as on the fact that bankers commit mortal sin when they operate with fractional reserves, creating bank deposits as a form of virtual money (or chirographis pecuniarium, as Luis de Molina said in latin) that only exists in their accounting books and distorts the structure of relative prices, creating bubbles and deep economic crises that ultimately "bring everything crashing down," as Saravia de la Calle and Tomás de Mercado so vividly explained in the 16th Century; and in short, the Scholastic's idea that it is impossible to organize society through coercive commands due to lack of the information that would be required to give them coordinating content; as well as the discovery that inflation is a hidden and very harmful tax that arises from an act of tyranny, since it is neither known nor accepted by citizens, which would even justify the assassination of the King according to the theory of tyrannicide, a contribution originally made by the Castilian Comuneros eventually defeated by the tyrant King Charles V in 1521, and developed by Father Juan de Mariana almost a century later [in 1610].This entire line of proto-Austrian scholastic thought also spread throughout the Americas, especially in the newly founded universities of San Marcos in Lima and Mexico City in 1551 where brilliant disciples of these Scholastics, who had studied at the University of Salamanca itself, came to occupy prominent academic positions. Thus, for example, we should mention the cases of Bartolomé Frías de Albornoz in Mexico, and above all the great Juan de Matienzo, who became judge and president of the Royal Audiencia of Charcas and Lima from 1560 onwards (Popescu, 1997).Finally, the doctrine of our scholastics did spread even to North America two centuries later through the books of Juan de Mariana, who greatly influenced Thomas Jefferson and the founding fathers of the United States.However, the southern part of the continent ultimately proved unable to neutralize the wave of growing statism and centralization that first came with the arrivals of the Habsburgs in Spain, and which was intensified even further after the arrival of the Bourbons with Philip V at the beginning of the eighteenth century (Martínez Marina, 1820). How different and much more prosperous and libertarian might the historical evolution of Spain and Latin America have been, had the statist centralism of the Habsburgs and the Bourbons not prevailed, and had the far more libertarian, local, and decentralized traditional representative institutions of the kingdoms of Castile instead remained predominant—institutions that were dismantled, together with Europe's first libertarian revolution, beginning with the defeat of the Castilian Comuneros at Villalar on April 23, 1521 (Leonard Liggio, 2025).The most important and far-reaching contributions of economic scienceLet us now turn, in greater detail, to the most important contributions of Economics, as developed by the Austrian School.First, human cooperation takes place spontaneously, without the need for anyone to organize it coercively from outside. This is so because human beings are endowed with an entrepreneurial and creative capacity that continually drives them to discover the multiple opportunities for profit that arise in their environment. Each of these opportunities embodies a previous discoordination in human behavior that remains latent until it is discovered and overcome by the corresponding entrepreneurial act. This entrepreneurial act always arises from a creative tension and interpretation of events of the outside world that is essentially subjective and, therefore, cannot be reproduced by any artificial intelligence algorithm; in other words, the same objective events can be interpreted in multiple ways, even contradictory ones, without it being possible to postulate which is correct until the corresponding entrepreneurial process is completed in the form of a subjective profit. In any case, every entrepreneurial act involves, firstly, the creation of information that did not exist before (regarding the profit opportunity that arose from the previous discoordination that had gone unnoticed); secondly, the transmission of that knowledge (directly to the parties involved in the entrepreneurial act and indirectly through a series of institutions and signals such as market prices); and third and finally, the coordination of the previous maladjustments takes place when the parties involved learn motu proprio, that is, voluntarily and for their own benefit, to discipline their behavior according to the needs of others (for example, when they discover that they achieve their ends more effectively by specializing and trading peacefully the mutual results of their efforts). The discovery of the essence of this pure entrepreneurial act, with its elements of creation and transmission of information and the spontaneous coordination of the previous maladjustments continually generated by human coexistence, constitutes the most important contribution that Economic Science has provided to Humanity, and explains why the spontaneous process of voluntary social cooperation that drives the multiplication of human beings and the expansion of civilization does not require any statist system of institutional coercion.Another essential contribution of Economics is the concept of Dynamic Efficiency, understood as the process of unlimited expansion of human creativity and entrepreneurial coordination that arises only within a specific institutional framework of moral and legal norms. This framework is the one grounded on the ethical principle according to which every human being has a natural right to appropriate the results of his entrepreneurial creativity; that is, a property right over what one has created and which did not previously exist, which is the most obvious and important human right. For this reason, (dynamic) Efficiency and Morality and Justice (properly understood) cannot be separated one from the other; or, as we might say, they are two sides of the same coin in the sense that only Justice and Morality induce and generate efficiency; and at the same time, what is dynamically efficient in economic terms cannot be neither unjust nor immoral. All of which, on the other hand, demonstrates the integrated order that exists in the social universe, and highlights the three levels of research (theoretical, ethical, and historical) that complement and reinforce with each other and are essential in our search for truth (Huerta de Soto, 2000).Finally, another key contribution of Economic Science is to have demonstrated the impossibility of socialism, or better, the impossibility of statism, in the sense that it is impossible for the State to achieve and coordinate what it promises for the following four reasons:First, because of the enormous volume of information required for such coordination, which the State cannot acquire because it is dispersed in the minds of the eight billion human beings who participate and interact in the social process every day. Second, given the tacit and inarticulate character of this information (and therefore its inability to be transmitted in an objective manner). Third, because the information that is generated is not "given," nor is it static, but instead changes continuously as a result of human creativity, making it impossible to transmit today information that will only be created tomorrow, and which is precisely the information that the organs of State intervention and the so-called “experts” would need today in order to direct society to achieve their objectives tomorrow. And fourth, and above all, because the coercive nature of State commands blocks the entrepreneurial activity of creating the very information which the State organization itself would need in order to give its commands a coordinating content. In sum, the State is always and everywhere violence and coercion; coercion blocks the entrepreneurial act of creation, discovery, and adjustment of discoordinated human behavior, while at the same time preventing the creation of the information and the emergence of free market prices that make economic calculation and social coordination possible. For this reason, statism is not only unnecessary but is also scientifically impossible.The impact of these essential contributions of Economics on the course of social evolution has so far been very limitedAll of these scientific contributions have so far achieved only a very partial, imperfect, and limited impact on the inertia of a social and political reality that has for centuries been characterized by the coercive power of States and rulers, and by the more or less resigned servitude of the citizens. And despite the very limited nature of this impact to date, which at best has materialized in a series of naïve and "liberal" revolutions aimed, with as much arrogance as lack of success, toward the impossible objective of trying to separate and limit the powers of states and rulers through political constitutions and "liberal democracies" (Rothbard, 2009); Humanity has been propelled as never before in those places and historical moments where it has managed, despite everything, to at least partially free itself from the State and open up some of the new channels of liberty shown by the teachings of Economics. Beginning with the Industrial Revolution, which was but the first chapter of the never-completed "Revolution of Liberty" inspired by Economics. And although what has been achieved in terms of prosperity and standard of living by the now eight billion human beings seems relatively significant—and indeed it is—we cannot even conceive of the standard of living and population size that could be achieved if Humanity were able to take full advantage of and fully implement the teachings of Economic Science.We can be few and poor in a context of servitude and submission to the State, or many and wealthy in a context of liberty (Hayek, 1988, p. 133). The globe is practically empty of human beings (the Earth's current population would fit into an area equivalent to that of the state of Alaska, with a population density equal to that of Brussels). And we cannot even imagine the prosperity that could be achieved in a free market daily driven by eighty billion, or even eight hundred billion, human beings. Economics explains and demonstrates that the increasing prosperity of an ever-growing population of human beings never results from deliberate and coercive State plans, nor from the egalitarian income redistribution, nor from increases in public spending, nor from subsidies, debt, or inflation, but only arises from the free market of the capitalist system. This consists of the process of voluntary exchanges among all human beings who, endowed with an innate entrepreneurial and creative capacity, are able to detect and assess, through the system of free prices, the relative urgency and necessity of each good and service, overcoming the relative scarcity of each and satisfying, every day and in the best humanly possible way, the desires and needs of billions of consumers. Entrepreneurs who succeed in this never-ending process of profit-seeking accumulate significant resources, which, in turn, are saved and invested in capital goods and new technologies that make human beings increasingly productive, boosting their wages and standards of living; a virtuous process of continuously expanding prosperity and population growth that, if not coerced or hindered by the State, has no limits.Therefore, it is crucially important for the future of Humanity that it be able to take full and maximum advantage of the lessons and essential message in pursuit of human liberty that Economics provides. But this will only be possible if we are able to unmask and carefully analyze the powerful forces of the pseudoscientific and counterrevolutionary reaction that has been mobilized to prevent the advance of the theory of liberty derived from Economic Science. Despite their diverse origins, they all converge on the same objective: to attempt to justify and preserve State coercion at all costs under the appearance of scientific legitimacy. They are driven by the "fatal conceit" (Hayek, 1988) of many visionaries, thinkers, and supposed "experts" who believe themselves to be clever enough to correct the spontaneous market order, of course, using the violence and coercive power of the State. Together with a privileged caste of rulers, bureaucrats and acolytes, they continually manipulate a Humanity that is sadly accustomed to serving the State. For all of them, it is vital that statism be maintained and that the message of liberty provided by Economics never prevail.Next, we will list the main reactionary pseudoscientific currents that have infiltrated Economic Science like a lethal virus and constitute, in Hayek's terminology, "the counter-revolution of science" (Hayek, 1955).Pseudoscientific reactionary currents opposed to Economic Science. The role played as “useful innocents” by many libertarian economists of the counterrevolutionary mainstreamFirst, positivism and scientism as pseudoscience. By "scientism" we must understand the improper application of the methods of the natural sciences to the field of Economic Science. Thus, while the natural sciences study their object of research as something external, measurable, and quantifiable, Economics studies the implications of the voluntary actions of human beings. And given the essentially creative nature of human beings, the supposed empirical "evidence" has, at best, only a superficial, partial, and always historically contingent value. In Bastiat's words, of "what is seen" —or rather, what is believed to have been seen— but not "what is not seen" (Bastiat, 1995); and at worst, it always entails the assumption, that human beings are an object of research that can be manipulated as the matter of the external world studied by the natural sciences. This inevitably introduces the idea that to improve the world, the State and its rulers must use their coercive power to manipulate and change the things they believe they see in their historically contingent "empirical photos." But these "empirical photos" cannot capture the underlying dynamic essence of spontaneous social processes, let alone what is already happening spontaneously to solve and coordinate every problem. Therefore, it is not surprising that from the very first steps of Economic Science promoted by the Austrian School, its most violent opponents were the "socialists of the chair" gathered around the German Historical School, reinforced in France by the empiricists of the school of Saint-Simon, the insane Comte, and Durkheim, who sought to create a new and alternative pseudoscience of society. And their unhealthy positivist and ultra-empirical influence has persisted to the present day, first through American Institutionalism and later through the massive compilation of empirical data, for example, in the work of Wesley C. Mitchell or Henry Schultz, the latter, as shown by Professor Salerno, having gone on to exert a decisive influence on his assistant Milton Friedman and, through him, even on the Chicago School itself (Salerno, 2023).Secondly, the pseudoscience of neoclassical economics is characterized by its claim that only its own approach constitutes true “science,” that is, the approach based on the principles of equilibrium, maximization, and constancy. Moreover, in addition to the lack of realism of its assumptions, it adds the reductionism of a mathematical language that has developed in response to the needs and demands of the natural sciences, but which is alien to Economic Science because it does not allow for the subjective concept of time or entrepreneurial creativity. Neoclassical economists develop their pseudoscience based not on real human beings of flesh and blood, but on "ideal types" that are like "robotic penguins" who, even in their most sophisticated dynamic stochastic general equilibrium models are limited to moving and reacting to events and State coercion as if they were characters of a sort of economic video game ("videogame economics"). Yet neoclassical pseudoscience, despite its apparent and ever-increasing sophistication, is not capable of accounting for the immense complexity of the real world and rebels against the idea of spontaneous market order in two ways that are equally harmful to human liberty: on the one hand, by promoting the coercive "social engineering" of central banks, States, and governments to use "fine tuning" to force reality toward to the mathematical optimum of their models; and, on the other hand, by labeling as "market failures" everything they believe they observe in reality that does not coincide, in their empirical studies, with their ghostly models of “perfect” equilibrium and adjustment (Milei, 2023); failures that, according to them, refute the "benefits" of the spontaneous order of the market and human liberty, and justify their elimination as soon as possible by a coercive State authority. Note also how neoclassical pseudoscience needs, and feeds upon, the empirical work of the previous pseudoscience, positivism, in order to justify its conclusions against human liberty and in favor of State coercion, so that positivists and neoclassicists join hands and end up reinforcing each other in their reactionary agenda.Third, Keynesianism and macroeconomics as pseudoscience. The very “macro” approach already entails, inevitably, an obvious bias in favor of justifying State intervention, aggression, and coercion against the spontaneous order of the market and human liberty. As F. A. Hayek pointed out in his Nobel Prize acceptance speech in 1974 (Hayek, 1978), macroeconomists ignore everything they cannot measure, specifically truly relevant economic processes and theories. At the same time, they believe that certain aggregate concepts—which lack genuine economic meaning—possess a “real” existence, that permits to collect empirical information or evidence that can be manipulated and statistically treated. Once again, macroeconomic pseudoscience goes hand in hand with positivist pseudoscience, and the two reinforce with each other in their counterrevolutionary reaction. Furthermore, Keynesianism is particularly harmful: not only does it flatly deny the coordinating capacity of creative entrepreneurship and the spontaneous market order, but it also builds as an alternative explanation a whole model—of course—of equilibrium with permanent unemployment, to justify the coercive intervention of the State in the lives of human beings in the form of all kinds of fiscal and monetary manipulations. Moreover, the macroeconomic and Keynesian pseudoscience feeds upon, and is reinforced by, the pseudoscientific approach of the Neoclassical School, to the point that, the so-called "neoclassical Keynesian synthesis" became, throughout the twentieth century, the main reactionary movement inside Economics. Keynesians and macroeconomists thus become the champions of that intoxication with statism, manipulation, and political power which constitutes the framework, orchestrated by governments and central banks, to which we have, regrettably, become accustomed and in which we are forced to live. This context repeatedly destabilizes the spontaneous market order, generates serious financial and economic crises and social conflicts, and continually hampers the prosperity and advance of civilization.We have left the quasi-religious mysticism of Marxist pseudoscience for last, because Marxism was scientifically dead even before it was born: in fact, it emerged with—and was theoretically demolished by—the subjectivist revolution led by the Austrian School of Economics. From the beginning, the Austrian School's development of time preference and capital theory revealed the contradictions and grave scientific errors of Marxism, while at the same time exposing its pronounced character as an intellectual fraud (Böhm-Bawerk, 1949). This intellectual fraud was historically illustrated by the collapse of the Soviet Union, and of virtually all other communist countries, after many decades of unspeakable human suffering for a large part of the world's population, all of which was perfectly consistent with the theory on the impossibility of statism developed by the Austrian School beginning with the von Mises of 1920 (Mises, 1936), and which was the final nail that forever sealed the coffin of the corpse of Marxist pseudoscience (Huerta de Soto, 2010).Finally, in this context, we must mention the destructive role played by a number of distinguished economists who, although they defend liberty and the market economy, could be described as a kind of "useful innocents" in Mises' terminology (Mises, 1947). This is so because, even though they officially oppose rampant statism and defend liberty, by accepting—even if only partially—some of the postulates of the reactionary pseudoscientific currents we have described, they ultimately end up, often without intending to and much to their regret, providing additional impetus to the statist reaction within our discipline; for example, when they insist on advising States with proposals aimed at making them more efficient and at helping them do somewhat better things that they should not be doing at all. By way of illustration, we should include in this category of “useful innocents”, for example, thinkers as the Karl Popper of The Open Society and Its Enemies (Popper, 1966, p. 366), who came to admire the “scientific capacity” and even the “humanism” of Karl Marx, and who proposed a statist strategy of “piecemeal social engineering”; or George Stigler, when he claimed that only empirical evidence could determine which economic system, socialism or capitalism, might function (Stigler, 1975, pp. 1-13); and, more generally, the members of the Chicago School, led by Gary Becker and Milton Friedman. Becker when defending that only economics developed within the strict limits of equilibrium, constancy, and maximization, typical of the neoclassical pseudoscience, constitutes true "economic science." And even more serious could be considered the case of Milton Friedman, whose very sincere love of liberty and intense and popular media support for free markets stand in sharp contrast to his pseudoscientific approach based on the aggregate method of economics of Keynesian origin, on positivist empiricism, and on the full acceptance of the unrealism of assumptions. Only in this way it can be explained Friedman's litany of scientific errors which, much to his regret, have invariably ended up reinforcing statist interventionism, to the point that Hayek himself was forced to conclude that after Keynes's The General Theory, the book that has done the greatest harm to Economic Science has been Friedman's Essays in Positive Economics (Hayek, 1994, pp. 145).The failure of democracy and classical liberalism: the triumph of statismAs we see, many classical liberals and advocates of liberal democracy have also acted as "useful innocents." The fatal error of classical liberals lies in the failure to realize that their program is theoretically impossible, because it incorporates within itself the seeds of its own destruction, precisely to the extent that it considers necessary and accepts the existence of a State (even if it is "minimal") understood as the monopolistic agency of institutional coercion. Therefore, the great error of classical liberals is very basic: they believe in a program of political action and economic doctrine that aims to limit the power of the State, while at the same time accepting it and even considering state's existence necessary. However Economic Science has already shown that the State is unnecessary, that statism (even in its minimal form) is theoretically impossible, and that, given human nature, once the State exists, it is impossible to limit its power. On the other hand, liberal democracy is a concept as naïve as it is impossible. Mises already warned us that democracy could only function if all its participants accepted the classical liberal principles, which is impossible because democracy itself encourages and amplifies vote-buying and the partisan use of power. So, the inevitable conclusion is that "liberal democracy" is a contradiction in terms as absurd as speaking (following Anthony de Jasay) of a “square circle,” of “hot snow,” or of a “virgin prostitute” (A. de Jasay, 1990). And even Hayek considered democracy unworkable if it is understood as the exercise of absolute power by majorities (Kratos in classical Greek). It should therefore come as no surprise that democracy once and again tends to be a perverse system based on lying and buying votes with money stolen through taxation.The fact is that the State attracts like a magnet the worst passions and vices of human nature, for instance, when individuals try to obtain rents produced by others using the State's coercive power. Moreover, the combined effect of the privileged groups, the phenomena of governmental myopia and vote-buying, the megalomaniacal character of politicians, and the irresponsibility and blindness of bureaucracies generate a dangerous, unstable and explosive cocktail, continually shaken by social, economic, and political crises which, paradoxically, are always used by the political caste to justify further doses of intervention and statism that, instead of solving problems, further aggravate them. Statism therefore corrupts the entire social body and at the same time blocks the spontaneous and free market solutions of social and economic problems.In fact, the State has become the "idol" that almost everyone turns to and worships. Statolatry is the most serious and dangerous social disease of our time. We are educated to believe that all problems can and must be detected and solved by the State. Our destiny depends on the State, and the politicians who control it are expected to guarantee everything our well-being may require. Human beings remain immature and rebel against their own creative nature, which makes their future always uncertain. They demand a crystal ball that assures them not only knowing what will happen, but also that any problems that arise will be solved for them. This "infantilization" of the masses is encouraged by politicians, as it justifies their own existence and ensures their popularity, position of dominance, and capacity to control. In addition, a whole legion of intellectuals, so-called "experts," and social engineers join in this arrogant intoxication of power. Not even the Church and the most respectable religious denominations have been able to realize that statolatry today constitutes the principal threat to the free, moral, and responsible human being; that the State is a false idol of immense power, worshipped by all, and that does not allow Humanity to be free from its control or have moral or religious loyalties beyond those the state can dominate. Furthermore, it is kept hidden from the public that the state is the true source of social conflicts and evils, and "scapegoats" (such as "capitalism" or private property) are blamed for the problems, and they become the goal of the most serious condemnations, even from moral and religious leaders, almost none of whom have realized the deception or dared to denounce that statolatry is the main threat in the present century to religion, morality, and, therefore, to human civilization.Perhaps the main exception within the Church is included in the brilliant biography of Jesus of Nazareth written by Benedict XVI. That the State and political power constitute the institutional incarnation of the Antichrist should be obvious to anyone with a minimal knowledge of history who reads the former Pope's considerations on the most serious temptation that the Evil One can present to us (and I quote Ratzinger literally): "The tempter is not so crude as to propose to us directly the worship of the devil. He merely proposes that we opt for the rational solution, that we prefer a planned and organized world in which God may have a place as a private spiritual matter, but must not be allowed to interfere in our essential purposes. Soloviev attributes to the Antichrist a book entitled The Open Road to World Peace and Prosperity; it becomes the new Bible, and its core message is the worship of well-being and rational planning," by the state (Ratzinger, 2007). And so, we should not be surprised that, for example, the great author of The Lord of the Rings, J. R. Tolkien, whose Catholic anarchism I fully share, went so far as to say that he would arrest anyone for simply daring to pronounce the word "State." Because the State is, always and everywhere, a reality of violence and systematic coercion against the most intimate essence of the human being, which is his capacity to act freely, creatively, and spontaneously; and so, it is unavoidable to conclude that the State is essentially immoral and that statism constitutes the principal threat to humankind.A theological digression: the dismantling of statism as a logical necessity inseparable from the work of GodAnd almost without realizing it, we can go ahead with a theological digression on how dismantling the State is a logical and moral necessity inseparable from the work of God. I fully understand that referring to God in this conference may come as a shock to many of those present, but I would ask that even those who do not believe in God, at least for dialectical purposes, make an effort of imagination and, for the next few minutes, imagine that God does indeed exist.And what do we mean by God? We must understand God to be a Supreme Being, Creator out of love for all things. And the most important creature that God has created is precisely the human being: in His image and likeness. And if there is a point of connection between God and man, it is precisely in the creative entrepreneurial ability: the capacity to discover, to see, and to create new things, goals and actions. But now I am going to go one step further and attempt to demonstrate that God is not only the Supreme, loving Creator of all things, but that—moreover—God is libertarian.And what does it mean to say that God is libertarian? It means that God, the Lord of all the Universe, has absolute power over it, and yet He chooses not to use force, but always leaves his creatures free. To the point that He gives human beings the freedom to rebel against Him; even though, again and again, God forgives human beings and allows them to rise up and begin anew.God always lets the universe He has created, flow in a spontaneous manner ("laissez faire, laissez passer, le monde va de lui même" could be the motto of our libertarian God). And this despite the fact that human beings tempt God again and again and demand that He manifest His absolute power, that He give us clear and indisputable signs of His existence and supreme power in order for us to believe in Him. But of course, God does not accept our challenge. Why? Because love and liberty are inseparable, and a forced conversion, for example by an evident cataclysm, would be completely contrary to that liberty with which God has created human beings out of love.Moreover, the Kingdom of God is not of this world; Jesus himself says this to a fearful Roman state official, who was also in charge of judging him: "My kingdom is not of this world." Does this mean that there are two types of kingdoms? The kingdoms of this world or States, which would be legitimate at their own level (remember "render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's"), and the Kingdom of God, of ("render unto God the things that are God's"). That is the standard interpretation that has prevailed until now, but I think is completely wrong. The Kingdom of God—which is the exact opposite of the kingdoms or States of this world—never makes systematic use of violence and coercion: it is a Kingdom that has already come to us and, moreover, has been given to us freely, in an act of immense mercy and love (Deus caritas est). And just as the hateful institution of slavery came to an end, the Kingdom of God will also dismantle the kingdoms of this world, the states of this world, or as St. Paul said, of every principality, power, and glory (Ephesians 1:21-23), because God is libertarian and man is made in the image and likeness of God.Ludwig von Mises, in his book Interventionism, introduced the term "destructionism" to refer to the economic and social effects of statism. If Evil (represented by statist destructionism in Mises' terminology) were to prevail, the human race and civilization would have disappeared long ago. The fact that, despite everything and the immense power of seduction of statism over humankind, the process of social cooperation continues to unfold and even prosper in certain historical periods and geographical areas, is a clear manifestation that God does not abandon the world nor leave libertarians alone in their struggle against the Evil; and that Good, represented by liberty, the principle of non-aggression, the spontaneous order of the market, entrepreneurial creativity and coordination, and above all, moral principles, always with God's help, prevails and is capable of overcoming Evil, represented by the fatal conceit of the statist ideal and the destruction that it produces.And now I will finish with some thoughts on anarcho-capitalism as the only possible system of social cooperation truly compatible with human natureAnd now I will finish with some thoughts on anarcho-capitalism as the only possible system of social cooperation truly compatible with human nature. The most important intellectual and moral event that is taking place nowadays is the full fusion between Christianity and anarcho-capitalism. Because anarcho-capitalism is the only possible system of social cooperation that is truly compatible with human nature. Anarcho-capitalism is the purest representation of the spontaneous market order in which all services, including law, justice, and public order, are provided through a voluntary process of social cooperation. In this system, no area is closed to the drive of human creativity and entrepreneurial coordination; efficiency and justice in the resolution of problems are simultaneously enhanced, while the conflicts, inefficiencies, and discoordinations generated by the State are eradicated at their root.The progressive abolition of States and their gradual replacement by a dynamic network of private agencies different legal systems, and providing all kinds of prevention and defense services, constitutes the most important social transformation that will take place in the twenty first century. Without forgetting that exactly what prevents us from knowing with precision what the future without the state will look like, the creative nature of entrepreneurship, is what gives us the peace of mind of knowing that any problem will tend to be resolved and overcome, once the entrepreneurial effort and creativity of Humanity are devoted to its solution (Kirzner, 1985).Therefore, the revolution against the “Old Régime” carried out in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries by the old classical liberals, today finds its natural continuation in the anarcho-capitalist revolution of the twenty-first century. The message of anarcho-capitalism is clearly revolutionary. Revolutionary in terms of its goal: the dismantling of the State and its replacement by a competitive market process consisting of a network of private agencies, associations, and organizations. And revolutionary in terms of its means, especially in the scientific, economic-social, and political fields:a) First, Scientific revolution, in the field of Economic Science, which becomes the general theory of spontaneous market order extended to all social areas. And by contrast and opposition, the theory and analysis of the effects of social discoordination generated by statism in any sphere in which it operates, as well as the study of the transition process from the State towards liberty.b) Second, an Economic and social revolution, as we cannot even imagine today the immense human achievements and discoveries that could be made in an entrepreneurial environment totally free from statism. Today, and despite continuous governmental harassment, an unknown civilization is already developing, with a degree of complexity that is beyond the reach and control of the state, and which will achieve unlimited expansion once it manages to completely rid itself of statism. And when human beings become more and more aware of the perverse nature of the State that restricts them, and of the immense possibilities that are frustrated each day when the State blocks the driving force of their entrepreneurial creativity, the social demand to reform and dismantle the State will multiply creating a future that is largely unknown to us but that will elevate human civilization to heights that we cannot even imagine today.c) And finally, a political revolution in which, although day-to-day political struggle is important, it should not be the top priority. It is true that the least interventionist alternatives must always be supported, in clear alliance with the efforts of classical liberals in their long term impossible democratic limitation of the State (including reforms such as those proposed by Hayek in the third volume of Law, Legislation, and Liberty). But the anarcho-capitalist does not stop at this task, for he knows that he can and must do much more. He knows that the ultimate goal is the total dismantling of the State, and this goal leads all his imagination and political action in everyday life. And here we cannot fail to mention the unprecedented impact of our disciple and follower of our Master Program in Austrian Economics in Madrid, the President of Argentina, Javier Milei, who has done more than anyone else before to disseminate the principles of the Austrian School and the anarcho-capitalist ideal. Principles that he never ceases to quote and explain and defend once and again in all his public appearances, from the United Nations to the Davos Forum; and in all his meetings with other Heads of State, universities, and parliaments, to whom he even gives copies of the most important Austrian works by Mises, Hayek and even myself, as he did, for example, with the two popes, Francis and Leo XIV, with the French President Macron, the Italian Prime Minister Meloni, and even with Elon Musk. For us, it is a great honor that Milei has, to a large extent, emerged from the Austrian School of Madrid and that he continually keeps drawing inspiration from us. This is, without a doubt, much more important than incremental political steps in the right direction—which should of course be welcomed—and that should never fall into a political pragmatism that could betray the ultimate goal of achieving the end of the State (Huerta de Soto, 2010).And all this with tireless enthusiasm in the search for scientific and moral truth, an attitude that, inspired by the immortal work of Miguel de Cervantes, we could describe as follows: "It matters not whether they be giants or windmills, when the plume of our helm is stirred by the winds of tenacity and faith." And always creating a future that, although it may seem distant today, may at any moment witness giant steps that will surprise even the most optimistic among us. History has entered into an accelerated process of change which, although it will never stop, will open a whole new chapter when humankind finally succeeds in ridding itself definitively of the State, reducing it to no more than a dark historical relic of tragic memory.Thank you very much.REFERENCESBASTIAT, Frédéric: Selected Essays on Political Economy, Foundation for Economic Education, New York 1995.DE LA BOÉTIE, Étienne: The Politics of Obedience: The Discourse of Voluntary Servitude, Free Life Editions, Nueva York 1975.BÖHM-BAWERK, Eugen von: Karl Marx and the Close of His System, Augustus M.

Nous sommes le 1er octobre 1825. C'est ce jour-là que sort le premier numéro du « Journal philosophique de l'industrie, des sciences et des beaux-arts » : « Le Producteur ». Il a été fondé par Olinde Rodrigues et Prosper Enfantin, deux disciples de Claude-Henri de Rouvroy de Saint-Simon qui est à l'origine d'un courant de pensée, une doctrine socio-économique et politique basée sur une confiance absolue dans le progrès technique qui serait vecteur de liberté et d'émancipation. En exergue du journal, on retrouve une phrase de Saint-Simon : « L'âge d'or, qu'une aveugle tradition a placé jusqu'ici dans le passé, est devant nous ». La note d'intention est claire, il s'agit « de développer et de répandre les principes d'une philosophie nouvelle. Cette philosophie, basée sur une nouvelle conception de la nature humaine, reconnaît que la destination de l'espèce, sur ce globe, est d'exploiter et de modifier à son plus grand avantage la nature extérieure ». À sa mort, en mai 1825, Saint-Simon est presque inconnu, ses héritiers spirituels, parmi lesquels de futurs théoriciens socialistes, vont jouer un rôle important dans la diffusion de ses idées, s'en écartant parfois, les plaçant sous le feu de la critique. « Le Producteur » disparaît un an plus tard. Quel était le projet de Saint-Simon ? Que reste-t-il du saint-simonisme, parfois qualifié de mouvement sectaire ?

Une jeune femme attend, seule, dans un bureau de l'hôtel de police de Toulouse. Édith Scaravetti, 27 ans, est nerveuse, inquiète. Ce lundi 11 août 2014, elle s'apprête à signaler la disparition de son époux, Laurent Baca, parti un bon matin à pied, sans papier, sans carnet de chèque ni carte bancaire. Cinq jours avant, le couple s'était disputé un matin. Elle avait battu en retraite, et emmené les enfants au centre aéré. À son retour, il n'était plus là, et, depuis, ne donne plus aucune nouvelle. Au brigadier qui reçoit sa déposition et à la commandante qui ouvre une enquête, Édith ne dit pas tout. Elle n'avouera pas avant un long moment que, depuis le départ de son conjoint, pour la première fois depuis des années à vrai dire, leurs trois enfants ont enfin eu le droit de jouer, et de danser librement dans leur maison.Malgré les investigations entreprises, Laurent Baca demeure introuvable. Il n'a pas été admis dans un hôpital, ni une morgue, ni incarcéré dans une prison. Dans le quartier Saint-Simon, au sud-ouest de Toulouse, où il vit avec son épouse et ses enfants, personne ne l'a vu errer, ni même se faire enlever. Son avis de recherche est placardé dans toute la ville : homme type caucasien, cheveux bruns courts et yeux marrons, portant un jean bleu, un tee-shirt Lacoste, une paire de Nike, une chaîne en or et une chevalière. Au sujet des lieux qu'il pourrait régulièrement fréquenter, on lit la mention « néant ».Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit. Notre collection s'agrandit avec Crimes en Bretagne, Montagne et Provence.

He lived during the years when Constantinople was held in captivity by the Crusaders, and the Imperial government was in exile in Nicaea. Simon fled the world at a young age and traveled to the Holy Mountain, where he submitted himself to a strict but wise Elder for many years. In time, seeking greater seclusion, he moved to a small cave on the western side of Mt Athos, near a cliff that towered a thousand feet above the sea. One night, a few days before the Feast of the Nativity, he saw a star move across the sky and come to rest above the cliff near his cave. Taking this as a demonic delusion, he ignored it; but on the Eve of Nativity, the star once again took its place above the cliff, and Simon heard a voice from heaven saying 'Be in no doubt, Simon, faithful servant of my Son! See this sign, and do not leave this spot in search of greater solitude as you have in mind, for it is here that I want you to establish your monastery, for the salvation of many souls.' Soon afterward, three young monks from wealthy Macedonian families, who had heard of the Saint's holiness, came and laid their wealth at his feet, asking that he accept them as disciples. Simon sent for builders and ordered them to construct a monastery on the very edge of the precipitous cliff. The builders at first refused, saying the work was much too dangerous; but, persuaded by a miracle worked through the Saint's prayers, they were convinced. As soon as the building was finished, the monastic community began to grow rapidly.   In his own lifetime St Simon was the source of many miracles, prophecies and healings. Once the monastery was attacked by Saracen pirates. Simon went to meet them with gifts, hoping to dissuade them from attacking. When the pirates attacked him, they were blinded, and the arm of one of them was paralyzed when he attempted to strike the Saint. All of them were healed when the holy man prayed for them, and at this wonder they all repented, received Baptism and became monks.   Saint Simon reposed in peace. A fragrant, healing balm afterwards flowed from his tomb in great quantities, so that he came to be called Myroblytis, 'Myrrh-gusher' or 'Outpourer of Myrrh.' In subsequent years, the monastery was destroyed and rebuilt more than once, and no trace now remains of the tomb.

Souvenirs de Noël   Pour plusieurs, la fête de Noël est associée à des souvenirs de jeunesse, des odeurs et des moments de tendresse. Dans cet épisode, Joan et Stéphane se demandent quand débute Noël et partagent quelques anecdotes et des souvenirs qui vous feront sourire.

Cette semaine, on vous partage des souvenirs de Noël. Bonjour Stéphane. Bonjour Joan. Bonjour à toutes les personnes qui sont à l'écoute.   Un petit cadeau pour Noël   [Stéphane] J'aimerais prendre cette occasion pour remercier toutes les personnes qui nous ont écoutées en 2025. Juste une petite statistique comme ça. J'ai vu qu'il y a une amélioration d'environ 25 % de téléchargements. On ne fait pas ça pour les chiffres, mais ça fait toujours plaisir qu'il y ait des gens qui nous écoutent. On a un petit cadeau de Noël. On a créé une communauté WhatsApp : « Pour une foi progressiste ». Un groupe pour les gens, pour discuter, pour poser des questions, quelque chose de tout simple. On n'est pas dans la quantité, parce que, au moment où on enregistre, on est 13 personnes sur ce groupe. On vise un petit peu plus la qualité. Donc, si ça vous intéresse, le lien va être dans la description de cet épisode et vous pouvez, si vous ne le trouvez pas, nous écrire à questiondecroire@gmail.com .   Quand débute Noël   [Stéphane] Alors, Joan, qu'est-ce que ça te dit, Noël? [Joan] Mais tu sais, moi j'aimerais d'abord commencer par un petit débat théologique avec toi qui va intéresser nos auditeuristes. Quand commence Noël pour toi Stéphane? Parce qu'il y a quand même un grand débat. Est-ce que c'est le premier de l'Avent? Est-ce que c'est le 24 ou est-ce que c'est le 25? [Stéphane] Très bonne question. Un de mes sujets de plainte ou de ronchonnement est que les calendriers de l'Avent, qu'on a beaucoup ici, commencent le 1er décembre. Et moi, je dis non! L'Avent ne commence presque jamais le 1er décembre, donc c'est faux. Déjà en partant. Les décorations, c'est le 7 décembre. C'est une tradition chez nous. Ce n'est pas le 6, ce n'est pas le 8, c'est le 7.  La tradition, je vais mettre sa canadienne-française parce que c'est plus que juste le Québec, c'est le 24. On se prépare. On va à la messe de minuit. On revient. On ouvre les cadeaux. On réveillonne. Donc c'est cette nuit du 24 au 25. Et pour toi Joan? [Joan] C'est sûr que le calendrier de l'Avent, c'est un incontournable en Alsace aussi. Alors, je ne sais pas très bien quels sont les liens entre le Québec, le Canada, l'Alsace. Moi, je sais qu'en tout cas, on est sous influence assez alémanique, assez germanique. Maintenant que je vis en Suisse depuis plus de quatre ans, c'est ma cinquième année maintenant, je vois aussi que les calendriers de l'Avent ont le même succès commercial que dans les contrées alsaciennes. Cela ne m'étonne pas parce que c'est vrai que dès qu'il y a un truc commercial, ça devient une niche et après ça devient une façon d'augmenter des capitaux un peu à droite et à gauche. Mais c'est vrai qu'on a aussi le Saint-Nicolas. Le Saint-Nicolas qui est très, très, très, très important en Alsace. L'autre jour, j'étais aller faire les courses avec ma fille. On est à la frontière entre le canton de Vaud et le canton de Fribourg. Et c'est là que j'ai découvert, ça m'a beaucoup amusée, qu'il y a une autre sorte de Saint-Nicolas par ici. Je l'ai pris en photo et il s'appelle Marcus. Je ne sais pas ce qu'il faisait là, le brave Marcus! C'était marrant. Donc un peu partout comme ça, on a des jalons ou des spécialités ou de petits cadeaux à ouvrir, ce temps de l'Avent. En Alsace, on se gausse beaucoup d'avoir le sapin de Noël. Parce que, je ne sais pas si tu étais au courant, mais le sapin de Noël a été historiquement prouvé comme étant né à Schlettstàdt, donc Sélestat. C'est la capitale quand même du sapin de Noël. Je ne sais pas si tu te rends compte, c'est très prestigieux comme affaire. Déjà que Strasbourg est la capitale du marché de Noël, Sélestat du sapin de Noël. Que demande le peuple? Et puis, concernant la décoration, je me pose tous les ans la question. Est-ce qu'on décore pendant l'Avent? Est-ce qu'on décore à partir du 24? Ou est-ce que, comme Noël commence le 25, le temps de liturgique de Noël, est-ce qu'on décore le 25? C'est vrai que ce sont des questions intéressantes. Ici, dans le village dans lequel je me trouve, à Corcelles-près-Payerne, on peut s'inscrire auprès de la mairie pour décorer une de ses fenêtres, inviter du coup le voisinage, tout le village. On met de la musique, on offre des boissons chaudes, on illumine sa fenêtre et on se fait un peu remarquer comme ça, puis on fait vivre aussi une belle tradition. Donc pour nous intégrer, on s'inscrit cette année et je te tiendrai informé un petit peu aussi de comment ça se passe puisque l'épisode est enregistré avant le 24 décembre.   Une messe de la veille de Noël catastrophique   [Stéphane] Le 24 décembre, c'est très important, comme je te disais. La messe, ça fait partie de ma jeunesse. Il y a un Noël auquel je reviens souvent dans ma mémoire. Je devais avoir 8 ou 10 ans. J'habitais dans un petit village, Saint-Simon-de-Bagot. Et chaque année, il y avait ce qu'on appelle les crèches vivantes, donc tous les enfants à l'école parce qu'à cette époque, il y avait l'enseignement religieux à l'école et tout le monde de l'école participait à cette crèche. Les jeunes filles étaient des anges, les garçons étaient des bergers, c'était très genré: alors j'étais un berger. Mais c'était la totale cette année-là. Je ne sais pas qu'est-ce qui s'était passé. Il y avait une jeune fille avant le début de la messe, une enfant de quatre ans qui avait été malade, qui avait vomi dans l'allée centrale. Il y avait des hommes qui avaient commencé à célébrer un peu trop tôt dans le coin de l'église. Ça parlait fort. Ils étaient pétés. Et il faisait chaud. Il y avait l'ange Gabriel qui était un grand adolescent qui est tombé dans les pommes. Saint-Joseph a eu un malaise, s'est retiré. C'était la catastrophe! Et en même temps, je me souviens toujours de cette veille de Noël, pas comme une espèce de grand désastre, mais quelque chose d'un peu... authentique. On recherche beaucoup l'authenticité, on recherche le vrai. Et quelque part, j'avais trouvé que oui, c'est ça la vraie vie. Les enfants sont malades, il y a des gens qui boivent trop, il fait chaud, il y a des malaises. C'est de cette veille de Noël de mon enfance dont je me souviens. Il y en a eu plein d'autres dont, bof, je ne me souviens pas, mais de celle-là, je m'en souviens.   Les odeurs du marché de Noël de Strasbourg   [Joan] Moi, en termes d'odeur, puisqu'on était un peu dans les odeurs aussi, j'irais de l'autre côté avec cette odeur du marché de Noël de Strasbourg. Moi, j'ai toujours vécu Strasbourg périphérie. J'ai toujours été attachée à cette ville. Ça reste ma ville. C'est Strasbourg, bien sûr. Et là, il y a un stand de crêpes qui s'appelle le « Stand d'la Bonumeur ». D'ailleurs, j'ai une collègue qui s'est postée sur les réseaux sociaux en photo devant ce stand, et je me suis dit, oui, ça, c'est le stand emblématique des crêpes de Noël. Quand tu as de la chance, tu ne sais jamais trop pourquoi ils t'offrent un vin chaud. Par exemple, mettons que tu arrives à 10h45 et ils te disent, voilà, il est 10h45 et donc c'est l'heure d'offrir le vin chaud à madame. C'est un petit peu aléatoire, leurs histoires. Et c'est super rigolo. Et puis, je me rappelle de leurs crêpes bien chargées en chocolat. Je me rappelle aussi quand j'étais petite, on était allé au marché de Noël. J'avais réussi à obtenir une barbe à papa, tu vois. J'avais baratiné et tout. J'avais mangé ma barbe à papa et puis, il y avait une dame, une belle Strasbourgeoise qui était passée avec son manteau de fourrure. Et moi, je n'avais pas fait gaffe. Ma grand-mère était morte de rire parce que j'avais foutu de la barbe à papa sur son manteau de fourrure. Voilà, ça me rappelle aussi mes flâneries sans fin devant les stands. Parce que moi, j'ai fait mon collège, à partir de 12 ans, j'étais à Strasbourg. Mon école était à côté de la place la plus importante de Strasbourg, entre la place Kléber, la place Broglie ou Bröjel, selon comment on prononce. Et toutes ces odeurs, le vin chaud, le chocolat, les marrons qu'on fait comme ça, qu'on fait griller, enfin tout ça, les marrons chauds, ça ce sont les odeurs de Noël. Après, ils se sont un petit peu américanisés et ils ont eu cette bonne idée formidable de mettre partout des petits haut-parleurs au centre-ville. On était si contents avec notre petit orgue de barbarie qui se promenait à droite à gauche. Mais ça, c'est une autre histoire. C'est un peu l'histoire de comment le marché de Noël est devenu plutôt un lieu de consommation qu'un lieu de fabrication à souvenirs.   Une journée de Noël intime   [Stéphane] C'est vrai que parfois, le calme, la simplicité, c'est toujours bon. Je me souviens de ce jour de Noël. Je débutais, j'étais dans ma première paroisse. Ma mère était venue nous visiter. Elle était venue à l'office la veille de Noël. C'était en anglais. Ma mère savait peut-être trois mots en anglais, mais elle a tenu à venir quand même. J'avais distribué des tirelires pendant l'Avent et il y avait un calendrier qui appelait à des actions, genre si vous avez l'eau chaude, mettez cinq sous dans la tirelire. L'argent allait pour les missions. Toutes ces tirelires étaient revenues la veille de Noël. Il y en avait une vingtaine. Et le jour de Noël, très tranquillement, dans l'après-midi, on a mis de la musique et on a roulé ces sous pendant deux, trois heures. On a fait des rouleaux. Et c'était un beau moment, c'était tranquille, c'était serein, rien de spectaculaire. Parfois, on n'a pas besoin de champagne. Oui, si on en veut, grand bien, face aux gens qui aiment ça. Mais c'est un beau souvenir parce que c'était un moment très intime. Il y avait mon épouse, ma mère et moi, puis on a roulé des sous, tout simplement, l'après-midi de Noël. C'était beau.   Pourquoi donner des bougies aux enfants   [Joan] C'est vrai qu'on a tous des souvenirs autour du 24 et 25 décembre. Je me rappelle une fois, dans ma paroisse d'origine, le bouclier à Strasbourg, la paroisse qui a été plantée par Calvin. Il y avait toujours des saynètes d'enfants, et tant que je n'avais pas l'âge, je ne pouvais pas jouer dans ces saynètes, même si c'est très inclusif et les enfants étaient accueillis. Je n'étais pas encore dans cette saynète d'enfant, donc je devais avoir 4-5 ans. Et puis, évidemment, la bougie de Noël. Alors voilà, qui un jour a eu l'idée d'introduire des bougies avec des mômes un soir de grande affluence dans une église historique? Je ne sais pas. Mais maintenant, on a les petites bougies LED, donc c'est fini. Quelqu'un, évidemment, me donne la bougie. Puis moi, je ne sais pas, 4-5 ans, qu'est-ce que je traficote avec ma bougie? Je ne sais pas. Je me brûle la main. Ma mère me tire précipitamment parce que je pleurais. Je hurlais. Dehors, il neigeait des flocons. Comme elle était travailleuse sociale, ma mère se rappelait qu'il y avait un dispensaire un peu pour les gens de la rue. Je pense qu'il n'existe plus d'ailleurs, mais il y avait un dispensaire dans le quartier. Elle me tire vers le dispensaire avec, tu imagines bien, les SDF, les prostituées, tout le monde. Puis voilà, quelqu'un me met de la crème, du truc, me fait un bandage, je ne sais pas quoi. Et mon père qui n'avait rien capté à ce moment-là, qui était resté à l'église, il n'y avait pas le téléphone avant. Une histoire, mais complètement... En fait, ce dont je me souviens, c'est qu'il neigeait. Voilà. En fait, les mômes, ça fonctionne un peu comme ça, quoi. Et je me rappellerai toujours cette histoire. Et puis après, en tant que pasteur, je me suis dit plein de fois, mais quelle idée de filer une bougie à une gamine de 5 ans?   Un feu de foyer qui tourne mal   [Stéphane] Ah là, tu m'emmènes avec les histoires de feu. C'était lorsque j'étais à ma deuxième paroisse à Kanata. On avait le culte à 16h30 pour les enfants et les familles, qui était un peu alternatif, un peu bizarre, beaucoup plus éclaté. Et à 20h30, c'était le culte plus traditionnel, je pourrais dire. Et entre les deux, certaines personnes, certains leaders restaient. On s'amenait un lunch. On mangeait ensemble. C'était un beau moment. Et moi, dans ma très grande créativité, je me suis dit « Ah, mais il y a un foyer! On va se faire un feu de foyer, ça fait très veille de Noël,” il y a les bûches, tout ça, je pars ça, tout va bien. Ce qu'on avait oublié de me dire, c'est qu'il y avait une trappe à ouvrir dans la cheminée, que je n'avais pas ouverte. Bon, on bouffe, on bouffe, on bouffe, tout va bien. L'alarme de fumée part. Et là, on se rend compte que j'avais enfumé l'église au complet. Grande chance, la caserne était au coin de la rue. Les pompiers arrivent. Mais là, moi dans ma tête, le culte débute dans 90 minutes. L'église au complet est enfumée, qu'est-ce que j'ai fait? Alors on ouvre les portes. On sort les ventilateurs. On essaye de faire sortir la fumée. Depuis ce moment, à cette paroisse, on m'a formellement interdit d'allumer quoi que ce soit, tout ce qui pouvait brûler. Bon, les chandelles à la limite, mais des trucs plus qu'une chandelle, non, ne touche pas à ça Stéphane! J'avais un mauvais karma. J'ai dit, c'est le mercredi des Cendres, je vais prendre de vieux rameaux, je vais mettre le feu, je vais aller dehors. Non! Tu ne touches pas à des allumettes. Tu ne touches pas à un briquet. Ce fut quelque chose de très marquant. J'ai failli foutre le feu à mon église la veille de Noël.   Confectionner de petites pâtisseries entre amies   [Joan] Ouais, ben alors, du coup... Est-ce que moi, j'ai une histoire aussi dingue à te raconter? Je ne suis pas sûre. En tout cas, dans le côté feu et faire cuire, en Alsace, il y a les bredeles. Les bredeles, c'est des petits gâteaux de Noël. Et c'est super rigolo parce que l'autre fois, j'appelle ma mère pour prendre de ses nouvelles. Et je lui dis « Ah, tu fais quoi? » Elle me dit « Bah, je suis en train de faire des bredeles » et je savais exactement la question que je devais lui poser. Je lui ai dit « Et tu en fais combien de sortes cette année? » Elle me dit très fièrement, parce qu'elle attendait ma question, elle me dit « Là, j'en ai déjà fait cinq et je suis en train de préparer la sixième sorte. » Et ça, c'est une grande discussion à l'église, tu vois. Alors, pour l'instant, c'est méga genré, mais de ce point de vue là, je trouve ça cool, parce qu'en fait, c'est une activité, je pense, comme tu disais, là, avec tes petits rouleaux de petits sous, là. Tu mets de la musique, tu invites tes copines, tu fais des bredeles. Moi, j'aime bien, en fait, ces formes de socialisation féminine qui sont sans gros enjeux. Ce n'est pas se préparer pour aller je ne sais pas où, non. Mais alors du coup, évidemment, il y a toujours un peu, il y a toujours le petit moment, ah oui, c'est bien, tu fais cette sorte, ça me donne une idée, ça me fera ma dix-septième sorte cette année. Évidemment, moi, je n'ai jamais dépassé comme ma mère, je n'ai jamais dépassé six ou sept sortes. Mais des fois, tu as des paroissiennes qui en font 24, quoi. Ça, c'est assez génial. Le rond avec dessus l'amande, le sapin fourré avec du Mascarpin. Enfin bref, il y a toutes ces sortes-là. C'est vrai, je me rends compte, ça m'a fait plaisir que tu me poses ces questions pour Noël parce que ça, c'est un truc que j'ai réussi à transmettre. L'intergénérationnel a fonctionné, ma grand-mère en faisait, ma mère en faisait, moi j'en faisais. Et puis avec mes filles, jusqu'à il y a 2-3 ans, j'organisais toujours une après-midi bredele dans la paroisse et j'invitais les femmes de la paroisse qui n'avaient pas nécessairement une grande cuisine ou comme ça, à venir faire des bredeles dans la cuisine de l'église qui était une cuisine assez chouette et surtout à côté il y a une grande salle où on pouvait sortir des tables et étaler la pâte. Je trouve que c'est sympa, ce sont des traditions qui fédèrent. Et puis finalement, maintenant qu'on peut trouver du beurre sans lactose, de la farine sans gluten, du sucre sans sucre, on peut aussi être plus inclusif dans notre préparation de bredele. Je pense que ça va me manquer un peu cette année, si je suis totalement honnête avec toi, j'avais un peu arrêté de les manger ces dernières années pour toutes les raisons qu'on vient de citer, lactose, gluten, sucre. Je pense que cette année dans le canton de Vaud, je ne recevrai pas de bredele et ça va me faire bizarre. Mais c'est comme ça.   Conclusion   [Joan] Moi je serais assez curieuse de savoir quelles sont les traditions de Noël des personnes qui nous suivent ou peut-être des personnes qui veulent nous rejoindre sur le groupe WhatsApp. On peut aussi s'offrir des petits débats théologiques, des petites confrontations. Est-ce que ceci est bien chrétien ou pas? Alors que la plupart des traditions n'ont pas besoin d'être ni chrétiennes ni pas chrétiennes. Je veux dire, si elles sont respectueuses des gens, elles sont là pour le vivre ensemble. Pourquoi pas, offrons-nous des espaces de discussion, de débat, envoyez-nous peut-être vos expériences, bonnes, moins bonnes, drôles, moins drôles, tout nous intéresse et ça peut peut-être même nous donner du bredele à moudre pour l'année prochaine. [Stéphane] Merci beaucoup Joan! Merci à toutes les personnes encore une fois qui sont à l'écoute. Peu importe où vous allez passer Noël, à la maison ou loin de chez vous, peu importe que vous soyez seul ou en groupe, j'espère que ce temps sera significatif pour vous. J'espère que vous prendrez soin de vous et j'espère que vous serez là pour la nouvelle année, parce que bien sûr, on sera de retour en 2026. Si vous avez des questions, des commentaires, si vous voulez vous abonner au groupe WhatsApp : questiondecroire@gmail.com .  Joyeux Noël, Joan. Bonne année 2026 un peu d'avance. Joyeux Noël à toutes celles et ceux qui nous écoutent et puis bon temps des fêtes.    

Do surgimento do termo no século XIX às suas múltiplas reformulações ao longo dos séculos seguintes, o positivismo consolidou-se como uma das correntes filosóficas mais influentes da modernidade, propondo que apenas o conhecimento produzido cientificamente - verificado, empírico e racional - poderia ser considerado verdadeiro. A partir de autores como Saint-Simon, Auguste Comte e outros, a doutrina articulou uma visão de mundo que rejeitava explicações teológicas e metafísicas, defendendo que o progresso humano dependia exclusivamente do avanço científico e da organização social fundada em leis tão rigorosas quanto as da natureza. Esse impulso atravessou fronteiras disciplinares, influenciando a sociologia nascente, o direito e outros campos que buscaram aplicar métodos científicos à vida social. Mas o positivismo também encontrou resistências, especialmente a partir do século XX, quando críticas sobre reducionismo, cientificismo e limitações metodológicas apontaram para as tensões de uma visão que pretendia explicar o mundo apenas por fatos observáveis. Convidamos Francisco Quartim de Moraes para explorar a formação e as transformações do positivismo, suas ramificações contemporâneas e, sobretudo, seu impacto profundo no Brasil, desde sua influência na arquitetura intelectual da República até os ecos persistentes dessa tradição no pensamento político nacional.Instagram: @iclesrodriguesAdquira o curso História: da pesquisa à escrita por apenas R$ 49,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso A Operação Historiográfica para Michel de Certeau por apenas R$ 24,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Adquira o curso O ofício do historiador para Marc Bloch por apenas R$ 29,90 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CLICANDO AQUI⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Colabore com nosso trabalho em ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠apoia.se/obrigahistoria⁠⁠⁠⁠CHEGOU O TECH DAY!

October 28, 2025Today's Reading: John 15:(12-16) 17-21Daily Lectionary: Deuteronomy 30:1-20; Matthew 19:1-15“I chose you out of the world.” (John 15:19)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen. As we remember the Apostles of our Lord throughout the year, we might feel sorry for a few of them. Poor Simon “the Zealot” and Jude (a.k.a. Judas, or Thaddeus). They are some of the more obscure of Jesus' disciples. They definitely don't get the attention of Peter, James, and John. They don't even get the word count for Saint Andrew or Saint Nathanael Bartholomew. We don't know a single word that Simon actually spoke, and only one question from St. Jude is recorded. We practically know nothing except their names. In the Gospels, Jude is almost always mentioned by the name Judas, but every instance of that includes “NOT ISCARIOT.” Imagine your greatest claim to fame being that you were NOT the guy with the same name who betrayed Jesus. And then poor Simon, he might as well always have the moniker “NOT PETER.”Yet there is one thing certain, that we can celebrate; Jesus chose them to be His apostles. They were not picked because they were the most quoteworthy, eloquent speakers. They were not selected because they had the right experience, or talents, or pedigree. Simon was not chosen because of his zealot politics, nor Jude for being “not Iscariot.” Saints Simon and Jude were chosen, by the grace of God, in His mercy, to be the simple, often-forgotten human hands, feet, and voices of Christ.That love of Christ encouraged them as they carried His Gospel as His disciples, missionaries, pastors, and apostles. They preached the Word of the Lord and baptized. They forgave sins and fed the Church Christ's Eucharist. And so we end up with two contrasts: the love of Jesus and the hatred of the world.Saints Simon (not Peter) and Jude (not Iscariot) were prepared by Jesus for the hatred of the world. The world hated Him first, and would hate them. Eventually, they suffered death at the hands of those who hated them and Jesus. These faithful Apostles are said to have been martyred at the same time, Simon (not Peter) sawn in half, while many say that Jude (not Iscariot) was beaten to death with a club.Even through the violent end to their time on earth, Jesus's love sustained them through the world's hatred. Our dear Lord knows these saints infinitely more than just their names: Simon, “Not Peter,” and Jude, “Not Iscariot.” He preserved them in the one, true faith at their martyrdom and welcomed them into His presence, where they now await the resurrection with the Risen Savior who chose them and loves them completely.In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.Praise, Lord, for Your apostles, Saint Simon and Saint Jude. One love, one hope impelled them To tread the way renewed. May we with zeal as earnest The faith of Christ maintain, Be bound in love together, And life eternal gain. (LSB 518:28)Rev. Richard Heinz, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, Lowell, IN.Audio Reflections Speaker: Pastor Harrison Goodman is the Executive Director of Mission and Theology for Higher Things.Step back in time to the late Reformation and learn about a divisive yet inspirational figure: Matthias Flacius Illyricus. His contributions to Lutheranism still echo in our teachings today, from the Magdeburg Confession to parts of the Lutheran Confessions. Learning about Flacius's life will help you understand more intricacies of the Reformation than ever before.

+ Holy Gospel according to Saint Luke 6: 12 – 19 In those days he departed to the mountain to pray, and he spent the night in prayer to God.When day came, he called his disciples to himself, and from them he chose Twelve, whom he also named apostles: Simon, whom he named Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon who was called a Zealot, and Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, who became a traitor.And he came down with them and stood on a stretch of level ground. A great crowd of his disciples and a large number of the people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the coastal region of Tyre and Sidon came to hear him and to be healed of their diseases; and even those who were tormented by unclean spirits were cured. Everyone in the crowd sought to touch him because power came forth from him and healed them all.The Gospel of the Lord.

No fim do século XVIII, Thomas Malthus lançou a ideia mais incômoda da economia: populações crescem em ritmo mais rápido do que a produção de alimentos — e, sem freios, a miséria volta sempre. Neste vídeo, partimos do “Scrooge” de Dickens para entender por que Malthus virou o “estraga-prazeres” da era vitoriana, como sua aritmética (população x alimentos) dialogou com a “lei de ferro dos salários” de Ricardo e por que utopistas como Owen, Fourier e Saint-Simon rejeitaram esse pessimismo. Depois, mostramos o que a história fez com essa tese: medicina, saneamento, produtividade agrícola, energia a vapor e a Revolução Industrial desmontaram os velhos limites; a renda disparou, a mortalidade caiu e a própria fertilidade encolheu — invertendo a profecia malthusiana.No final, você sai com um mapa simples: o que Malthus acertou, o que errou e o que ainda importa para entender crescimento, pobreza e demografia hoje. Comente: qual parte da tese malthusiana você acha que ainda se aplica — e onde ela falha de vez?

Oui, cette histoire est tout à fait vraie, et elle illustre à merveille les mœurs étonnantes — et souvent cruelles — de la justice d'Ancien Régime. Jusqu'au XVIIIe siècle, la France connaissait une institution pour le moins singulière : les tribunaux d'impuissance, chargés de juger si un mari était, ou non, capable de “remplir son devoir conjugal”. Ces procès, souvent spectaculaires, mêlaient droit, médecine, religion… et humiliation publique. Et c'est un noble français, le marquis de Langey, qui, bien malgré lui, mit fin à cette pratique absurde.L'affaire éclate en 1659. Le marquis de Langey, jeune aristocrate d'une vingtaine d'années, épouse Mademoiselle de Saint-Simon de Courtemer. Mais très vite, leur union tourne court : l'épouse, frustrée, l'accuse d'impuissance, c'est-à-dire d'incapacité physique à consommer le mariage. À cette époque, cette accusation n'est pas anodine : un mariage non consommé peut être annulé, privant l'époux de son honneur et de ses droits. La femme dépose donc plainte, et l'affaire est portée devant le Parlement de Paris.Ce qui suit confine au cauchemar. Le marquis est sommé de se soumettre à une “épreuve de virilité” : une inspection médicale complète, menée devant médecins, sages-femmes et témoins. Puis vient la fameuse “épreuve du congrès”, une procédure officielle au cours de laquelle l'accusé devait, en présence d'experts, tenter d'accomplir l'acte sexuel avec son épouse. Les contemporains décrivent cette scène avec un mélange d'effroi et de curiosité. Évidemment, sous la pression, le marquis échoue. Il est déclaré impuissant et, par conséquent, incapable de mariage. Le verdict est rendu public : humiliation totale.Mais l'histoire ne s'arrête pas là. Peu après, le marquis quitte Paris et se réfugie en Italie, où il se remarie. Cette fois, miracle : il a plusieurs enfants. La nouvelle fait scandale et ridiculise la justice française. Comment un homme officiellement reconnu “impuissant à jamais” peut-il devenir père ailleurs ? Le Parlement, embarrassé, annule la décision précédente, et le tribunal du congrès est définitivement supprimé en 1677 par le roi Louis XIV lui-même, sur avis de ses juristes.Cette affaire du marquis de Langey mit ainsi un terme à une procédure qui relevait plus du théâtre que du droit. Elle révèle aussi combien la sexualité, au XVIIe siècle, était perçue comme une affaire publique, surveillée et jugée — jusqu'à ce qu'un homme humilié prouve, au fond, que la justice pouvait être bien plus impuissante que lui.

No século XIX, enquanto a fumaça das fábricas cobria as cidades e histórias como a de Fantine, de Os Miseráveis, escancaravam a miséria urbana, um grupo de pensadores tentou imaginar saídas para além do improviso: Charles Fourier, Robert Owen e Henri de Saint-Simon. Este vídeo visita a vida real por trás da Revolução Industrial — jornadas exaustivas, workhouses, epidemias — e apresenta os projetos que propuseram comunidades organizadas, educação infantil, higiene, novas formas de associação e participação nos resultados. Sem panfletos e sem demonizações, investigamos o que esses experimentos queriam resolver, por que empolgaram tanta gente e por que muitos fracassaram.Também mostramos como essas ideias dialogaram (e colidiram) com correntes liberais de Smith e Ricardo, e depois com a crítica de Karl Marx, que trocou a esperança gradualista pelo choque revolucionário, que acabou por parir uma ideologia que matou milhões de pessoas. O objetivo é entender as perguntas que permanecem atuais: como conciliar produtividade com dignidade? o que políticas públicas e iniciativa privada aprenderam com New Lanark, New Harmony e os falanstérios? e por que a promessa de “sociedades perfeitas” volta e meia ressurge em novas roupagens?Se você curte história econômica e quer enxergar além do meme “capitalismo vs socialismo”, este episódio é para você. Inscreva-se, deixe seu comentário e diga: qual experiência histórica mais te surpreendeu e o que dela ainda faz sentido hoje?

Pourquoi a-t-il fait œuvre de mémorialiste ? Comment ses écrits ont-ils été découverts ? Pour en parler, Stéphane Bern reçoit Jean-Michel Delacomptée, écrivain, auteur de "Saint-Simon, la Grandeur" (Folio) et "Grandeur de l'esprit français. Dix portraits d'Ambroise Paré à Saint-Simon" (Cherche-Midi). Au Coeur de l'Histoire est réalisée par Mathieu Fret. Rédaction en chef : Benjamin Delsol. Auteur du récit : Simon Veille.

He lived during the years when Constantinople was held in captivity by the Crusaders, and the Imperial government was in exile in Nicaea. Simon fled the world at a young age and traveled to the Holy Mountain, where he submitted himself to a strict but wise Elder for many years. In time, seeking greater seclusion, he moved to a small cave on the western side of Mt Athos, near a cliff that towered a thousand feet above the sea. One night, a few days before the Feast of the Nativity, he saw a star move across the sky and come to rest above the cliff near his cave. Taking this as a demonic delusion, he ignored it; but on the Eve of Nativity, the star once again took its place above the cliff, and Simon heard a voice from heaven saying 'Be in no doubt, Simon, faithful servant of my Son! See this sign, and do not leave this spot in search of greater solitude as you have in mind, for it is here that I want you to establish your monastery, for the salvation of many souls.' Soon afterward, three young monks from wealthy Macedonian families, who had heard of the Saint's holiness, came and laid their wealth at his feet, asking that he accept them as disciples. Simon sent for builders and ordered them to construct a monastery on the very edge of the precipitous cliff. The builders at first refused, saying the work was much too dangerous; but, persuaded by a miracle worked through the Saint's prayers, they were convinced. As soon as the building was finished, the monastic community began to grow rapidly.   In his own lifetime St Simon was the source of many miracles, prophecies and healings. Once the monastery was attacked by Saracen pirates. Simon went to meet them with gifts, hoping to dissuade them from attacking. When the pirates attacked him, they were blinded, and the arm of one of them was paralyzed when he attempted to strike the Saint. All of them were healed when the holy man prayed for them, and at this wonder they all repented, received Baptism and became monks.   Saint Simon reposed in peace. A fragrant, healing balm afterwards flowed from his tomb in great quantities, so that he came to be called Myroblytis, 'Myrrh-gusher' or 'Outpourer of Myrrh.' In subsequent years, the monastery was destroyed and rebuilt more than once, and no trace now remains of the tomb.

Peintre talentueuse, Rosa Bonheur s'est imposée au XIXe comme l'une des plus grandes spécialistes de la représentation animalière, dans un monde d'artiste alors très masculin. Dans un récit inédit en deux épisodes, Virginie vous raconte l'histoire de cette femme pas comme les autres, résolument moderne, indépendante et transgressive. Marie-Rosalie Bonheur est la fille de Sophie Marquis, issue d'une famille bourgeoise et de Raymond Bonheur, son professeur de peinture. Un nom qui n'est pas prophétique ! La famille Bonheur connaît la misère de Paris, avant que Raymond ne quitte le foyer pour rejoindre le phalanstère de Ménilmontant, un groupe d'hommes qui se réclame du Saint-Simonisme. Seule pour subvenir aux besoins du foyer, Sophie Marquis meurt à 36 ans. Rosa Bonheur n'a que 11 ans, mais elle se promet déjà de devenir une peintre riche et célèbre pour gagner son indépendance. Le phalanstère ayant été fermé par la police, Raymond Bonheur est de retour auprès de sa fille, à laquelle il donne des cours de peinture. Marie-Rosalie est très douée, mais son père exige qu'elle signe les tableaux avec son nom à lui ! La jeune artiste s'y oppose : ses toiles porteront le nom de Rosa, le surnom que lui donnait sa mère. Avant la fin de son adolescence, Rosa est déjà connue du Tout-Paris artistique pour son talent. À 19 ans, elle expose pour la première fois au Salon, la voie royale du succès pour les peintres. Bonheur est un phénomène : comme George Sand, elle s'habille en pantalon. Elle entretient une relation amoureuse discrète avec une autre femme, et clame que le génie artistique n'a pas de sexe ! Sa spécialité, ce sont les peintures d'animaux. Alors, ses critiques la réduisent à être la peintre des vaches !

Sean is joined by political theorist William Roberts to discuss his excellent 2017 book, Marx's Inferno: The Political Theory of Capital which excavates not just Marx's use of the structure of Dante's Inferno but the radical political theory that undergirds it. What is the relationship between the analysis in Capital and the debates within the workers movement of the time typified by the likes of Proudhon, Saint-Simon and Owens? What is the place of radical republicanism in Marx's theory? How has this tradition in the workers movement been buried by history and what might we do with it today?For the full discussion become a patron today at www.patreon.com/theantifadaSign up or upgrade your membership at the discounted $10/month annual membership and DM your mailing address on Patreon for a free postage paid copy of the PM Press George Floyd Uprising book, with contributions by Andy and many past and future friends of the show!Son: Iggy and the Stooges - Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell
