The French paradox

Le Monde analyses the results of a new study by the French Centre d´Études de L'Emploi (CEE) on French attitudes to work in comparison to those of other European countries: "Work is important to the French. Very important, even. ... While only 40 percent of Brits and Danes say work is 'very important', 70 percent of the French say it is. ... And why? Because they worry about the tasks that lie ahead ...? Not really. Because they are afraid of unemployment ... ? Not just that. Above all it is because more than the others, they (we) wish to fulfil themselves in their work. ... The authors of the study observe that it is more important for the French that their work should be interesting, and that they care more that it should be a place of 'self-realisation' and 'accomplishment'. ... The paradox ... is that while more French find work 'most important', they are also the ones who most wish it ... took up less of their time."

Le Monde - Francia | 26/05/2008

Human condition 2.0

French daily Le Monde reflects on a society increasingly shaped by technical gadgets and virtual worlds: "The development of cyberspace, networks and mobile phones has within just a few years seen the world become an enormous, turbulent ocean that is now ruled not just by energy and matter but also by the digitalisation of information, knowledge and insights. ... In reality, all elements can now be coded, stored, manipulated and dispatched, in other words 'virtualised'. The age of hyperinformation has dawned. ... The universality and diversity of ... ideas available today is leading to a collectivisation of knowledge. The result is a constant combination of ideas, values and cultures - a constantly growing magma of information with which everyone can merge. ... This development is, however, accompanied by an emotional saturation. Imitatory effects lead to the spread of stereotypes. Hyperinformation alters the relationship of the individual to reality."

Le Monde - Francia | 29/01/2007

The new information society

The French journalist Jean-Michel Dumay is worried by our over-exposure to news, resulting from new information technology. "The time is long passed when we sat down by the old radio set to listen to the news after dinner. The previously rigid links between daily activities (eating, working, etc.) and daily contexts (the living room, the office) have been stretched. We are informed everywhere, all of the time, endlessly, in the office, on public transport, in the kitchen, on foot, in the car, or on a bike. And all of this for almost nothing. There seems to vibrate in every informed person a frenetic though routine need for information, a need to be connected. And this is where frustration often lies, because the information-for-all wall create something like a uniform collective thought, a big stereotypical buzz, mainly based on the emotional."
