«Cas de conscience» is Pierre Joxe's political essay, published by Labor et Fides in 2010 in paperback (245 pages, in French).
Pierre Joxe, linked to the French Socialist Party, examines real episodes of French politics in which ethics and power come into conflict. The book addresses press censorship, the lies told to Mitterrand and the intervention in Somalia, and turns them into a starting point for reflection on individual conscience when faced with political decisions.
The book is set within the history of the French Socialist Party and of socialism in France. The book's subtitle is «Censurer la presse, mentir à Mitterrand, envahir la Somalie».
A work for those interested in French politics, the history of socialism and the ethical dilemmas of power.
