Synopsis

Present times reveal a disturbing paradox: our supposedly hyper-connected post-modern societies had never stretched the social link this thin. The fault lines are so deep that we aren't far from a potential failure. To remedy this, the French Academy came up with a new word in 2004, namely convivence --this proves that words have the power to build and transform reality, -- to restore hope of living together. This composition not only analyzes the wounds we are stricken with, but also suggests concrete methods to bridge the gaps faced by our societies and favors the emergence of a new ideology, which is more humane.
