The impression that unreason now dominates men overwhelms each of us. That the rationalization that characterizes industrial societies leads to the regression of reason (as stupidity or madness) is not a new question: Theodor Adorno and Max Horkheimer already warned us in 1944. However, this question has been abandoned, while, from the 1980s, the rationalization of all activity, related to the sole criterion of "performance", was systematically and blindly orchestrated by the "conservative revolution", imposing the reign of stupidity and neglect. Bernard Stiegler, philosopher, is the author of La Technique et le Temps, Mécréance et discrédit, Prendre soin. De la jeunesse et des générations and Ce qui fait que la vie vaut la peine d’être vécue. Since 2006, he has directed the Institute for Research and Innovation (IRI) and chairs the association Ars Industrialis, International Association for an industrial policy of technologies of the mind.
