From the French Revolution to the Bolshevik Revolution, the movements of social struggles all begin with the same aspirations: to put an end to a situation of unbearable inequality. However, historically, there has been no Revolution that fully fulfills the longed-for desires. Are the revolutions, then, historical events fabricated by elites in order to create a panopticon of crowds channelling under the illusion of a control of free self-determination of the people? This questioning, clearly of current events in front of Nations crossed in a tumult of social and economic instabilities, invites us to rethink our freedom and the emancipation of a people around a reasoning mixing history, sociology, economy and philosophy. A guaranteed upheaval after reading this lecture.
