Capture d’écran d’un article du monde sur un rapport publié cette semaine par le Ministère de l’Economie avec ce titre :

Les revenus des ultrariches s’envolent, les inégalités se creusent, selon une note de Bercy

En vingt ans, le revenu annuel des 40 700 ménages les plus riches a plus que doublé. Une croissance bien plus rapide que pour le reste de la population, relève une étude du ministère de l’économie.

Jean-Marie Le Pen, un "pirate de la république" (Le Figaro), le "petit légionnaire qui a rassemblé l'extrême-droite" (Le Parisien), une figure "controversée" (AFP) qui aimait "la danse" (Le JDD). Ces médias qui alimentent le mythe d'un gentil papy alors qu'il s'agissait d'un ancien tortionnaire...

A Past in All Its Fullness | Peter Brown “We should remember that the people we study lived in a world crowded with invisible beings,” Peter Brown writes in our June 6, 2024 issue, as part of his

I agree with Peter Brown, I cannot be wrong "The historian’s job is about the past, and especially about how and why the past is not the present. People in history are usually most interesting to us when they are not like us." www.nybooks.com/online/2024/...

I think everyone should get to know the west African term “wahala”.

It generally means “chaos”, “confusion”, or “drama”. A clusterfuck.

I’ve been on a mission for years to use it more regularly in my work.
