Alain Supiot and Mireille Delmas-Marty
Taking responsibility seriously
The result of an international colloquium organized at the Collège de France by Alain Supiot and Mireille Delmas-Marty on June 11 and 12 2015, this book aims to restore the legal meaning of responsibility in dealing with the three " fictitious commodities " that are nature, labor and money. Bringing together specialists from every continent, it begins by taking the historical and cultural measure of the multiple meanings that the principle of responsibility can cover. It then examines the reasons why globalization is a source of ecological, social and financial irresponsibility, and the means of restoring the principle of responsibility. The remedies thus identified were subjected to a wide-ranging discussion, leading to operational conclusions, intended to feed into the work of the 21st Climate Conference in December 2015.
