À propos de cet audio
This book offers a radical rethinking of one of modernity’s most mistrusted concepts. Long associated with manipulation, coercion, and failed utopias, social engineering has often meant the sacrifice of individuality for the sake of imagined harmony. But what if its core idea—deliberate design of social life—could be grounded in ethics, humility, and a deep respect for human complexity?
Rejecting both the authoritarian logic of the past and the fantasy of pure spontaneity, this work proposes a mature, humane, and sustainable vision of transformation. One that shapes environments, not people. One that centers freedom and solidarity, not conformity and control. Drawing on philosophy, neuroscience, political theory, and design thinking, the book lays out principles for non-coercive change—where participation is voluntary, structures are transparent, and care is not the exception but the foundation.
For listeners seeking a way beyond the false choice between chaos and domination, this is not a blueprint for a perfect world—but a guide to designing conditions in which trust can grow, diversity can flourish, and human dignity can be sustained.
