A discussion moderated by Jean Petaux about Jacques Attali's latest work, Blessed Be Our World. A "realistic" dystopia that analyzes social and political dynamics in a world governed by technology, ruled by populists, and disrupted by the consequences of an unprecedented environmental crisis. Video games, used as tools for political action, play a central role in this story.
🌍 Jacques Attali is a writer, professor, senior civil servant, special advisor to President François Mitterrand for ten years, and the founder of four international organizations: Action Against Hunger, Eureka, EBRD, and Positive Planet.
His main areas of research and writing are the various dimensions of the future: technology, economics, ideologies, geopolitics, and values.
