Fondateur et dirigeant de Meta, que symbolise vraiment Mark Zuckerberg ? Angela Weiss/AFP

Le mythe du fondateur : quand la Silicon Valley exporte ses récits jusqu’à occulter le fait que l’innovation est d’abord collective

(Tiempo de lectura: 4 - 7 minutos)

Le numérique a promu une vague de figures d’entrepreneur, de Mark Zuckerberg à Jeff Bezos, bientôt rejoints par celles de l’IA, comme Sam Altman. Mais si les récits, notamment médiatiques, adorent cette représentation, la réalité est beaucoup plus nuancée. Au-delà de ces individus plus ou moins héroïsés, la contribution des écosystèmes au succès des uns et des autres doit être rappelée.

Thomas Hobbes took a very dim view of rebels and insurrectionists. He believed that insurrectionists relinquish their status as citizens the moment they seek to overthrow the government and should never be rewarded for doing so.

Hobbes, one of the finest political theorists of his time, said this in his great political treatise, “Leviathan,” published in 1651 during a civil war in England and Scotland.

Battleground state with few combatants – why Pennsylvania’s primaries lack competition

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 5 minutos)

At a time when hard-fought primary elections in Georgia, Kentucky and Indiana and Ohio are making national news, perennial battleground Pennsylvania seems to be nodding through one of the sleepiest primary seasons in a long time.

I’m an associate professor of political science at the University of Pittsburgh. My research focuses on how political institutions like political parties and state and local governments affect political representation.

Indie sleaze: a brief fashion history, from messy rebellion to mainstream revival

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 5 minutos)

Indie sleaze is back, but not as you remember it. The 00s scene’s revival taps into a growing backlash against hyper-polished influencer culture, offering a messier, more authentic alternative that feels both nostalgic and deliberately staged.

The original indie sleaze look of the 2000s was an intentionally unrefined way of dressing, driven by a desire to stand apart from mainstream fashion, with a carefully constructed sense of effortless cool.

Trump’s Cabinet dramatically changed American foreign policy while the president made noise – a scholar of presidential rhetoric explains

(Tiempo de lectura: 4 - 7 minutos)

The first half of 2026 has been a chaotic time for U.S. foreign policy: new tariffs, threats to annex Greenland, the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and the struggle for control of the Strait of Hormuz.

As a researcher focused on the values and rhetoric of American presidents, I study how presidents and their administrations communicate to the public about foreign policy. My primary aim is to understand the values systems and policy priorities that make up a president’s public persona.

Plus rien ne vous choque? Comment l’intolérable se transforme en norme dominante

(Tiempo de lectura: 3 - 6 minutos)

*Comment des idées politiques ou sociales considérées comme inadmissibles finissent-elles par pénétrer, voire à s’imposer, dans le débat public ? La psychologie sociale montre que face à l’incertitude ou à la pression du groupe, les individus ajustent leurs jugements à ce qu’ils perçoivent comme la norme dominante. Mais la résister à la normalisation d'idées extrémistes ? *

Guerre en Iran: la solidité du Kenya de nouveau à l’épreuve

(Tiempo de lectura: 5 - 9 minutos)

Depuis 2020, le Kenya, qui vient de co-présider avec la France, à Nairobi, le sommet « Africa Forward » des 11 et 12 mai, a subi sans sombrer la pandémie de Covid-19, mais aussi des sécheresses, une flambée des prix des matières premières et les effets de l’instabilité régionale. Cette résistance affichée cache une fragilité structurelle : l’investissement est faible, la dépendance énergétique est élevée, et les tensions sociales et politiques persistent. Alors que la guerre en Iran a un impact direct sur l’économie du pays, le shilling et les réserves de change tiendront-ils cette fois ?

Between 2016 and 2024 the UK saw four changes of prime minister by way of a party leadership contest. In that time, even casual observers became familiar with the dramatic process that the Conservative Party uses to topple one leader and select another. Secret letters to the 1922 Committee, the dramatic confidence votes, and then two selected in a dog-eat-dog process to face the final vote by members.

Why Kevin Warsh might still prove to be an independent Federal Reserve chair

(Tiempo de lectura: 4 - 8 minutos)

Kevin Warsh is now likely to secure Senate approval on May 13, 2026, as the next Federal Reserve chair – and become arguably the most powerful central banker in the world. But when Warsh appeared before the Senate Banking Committee for his confirmation hearing in April, one punchy question underscored the dilemma that Warsh, lawmakers and the Fed all face:

“Are you going to be the president’s human sock puppet?” asked Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana.
