« J'ai 79 ans. Alors pourquoi diable devrais-je me préoccuper de parler de la jeunesse ? » C'est la question avec laquelle le célèbre philosophe français Alain Badiou commence son plaidoyer passionné aux jeunes.
Aujourd'hui, les jeunes, du moins en Occident, sont au bord d'un nouveau monde. Avec le déclin des anciennes traditions, ils font maintenant face à plus de choix que jamais. Pourtant, des forces puissantes les poussent dans des directions dangereuses, dans le tourbillon du consumérisme ou dans des formes réactives du traditionalisme. C'est un moment où les jeunes doivent être particulièrement attentifs aux signes du nouveau et avoir le courage de s'aventurer et de découvrir de quoi ils sont capables, sans être contraints par les vieux préjugés et les idées hiérarchiques du passé. Et si le but de la philosophie est de corrompre la jeunesse, comme on l'a accusé Socrate, cela ne peut signifier qu'une chose : aider les jeunes à voir qu'ils n'ont pas à suivre les chemins déjà tracés pour eux, qu'ils ne sont pas seulement condamnés à obéir aux coutumes sociales, qu'ils peuvent créer quelque chose de nouveau et proposer une direction différente en ce qui concerne la vraie vie.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. 'I'm 79 years old. So why on earth should I concern myself with speaking about youth?' This is the question with which renowned French philosopher Alain Badiou begins his passionate plea to the young. Today young people, at least in the West, are on the brink of a new world. With the decline of old traditions, they now face more choices than ever before. Yet powerful forces are pushing them in dangerous directions, into the vortex of consumerism or into reactive forms of traditionalism. This is a time when young people must be particularly attentive to the signs of the new and have the courage to venture forth and find out what they're capable of, without being constrained by the old prejudices and hierarchical ideas of the past. And if the aim of philosophy is to corrupt youth, as Socrates was accused of doing, this can mean only one thing: to help young people see that they don't have to go down the paths already mapped out for them, that they are not just condemned to obey social customs, that they can create something new and propose a different direction as regards the true life.
