THE BOOK
We live in uncertain times, disrupted by apparently irreconcilable headwinds. Freedom and security, competition and cooperation, exclusion and integration, innovation and preservation. In an insightful reflection on law and justice, Mireille Delmas-Marty reminds us that humanism and the focus on the human being are more necessary than ever in facing the challenges of our time: healthcare and financial crises, social and ecological crises, humanitarian disasters, and global terrorism all have such strong interdependencies that no State can any longer cope on its own. Juridical humanism is the compass identified by the jurispoète Delmas-Marty to seek an order acceptable to all, while imagining a new world.
