« The shift between discourse and conduct, which is not new and will not end tomorrow, gives our "international community" a tragicomic effect, such as those poorly dubbed films where the soundtrack makes niches to the soundtrack. The actor is a schizo in good faith. The viewer laughs, sure that this only happens to others. But when the time comes, it will be subject to the same lag. The French republican with a bowler hat, who extled equality for all before the law, deprived his female half without any bad conscience, and this champion of equality quietly promoted inequality in the Empire (the status of the indigenate distinguished between subjects and citizens). Such a tireless apostle of human rights, a tireless globe-trotter, will spontaneously ignore the violations committed by his community of reference.

The adhesions and attachments paleo-limbic, not too much, certainly, but not to concede anything at all, they are prepared for formidable comebacks. Since the realism of the surreal is not the right to a city where instrumental reason is involved, "communicational action" will continue to be jargon in circles, via debates, articles and antitheses. During these conventional works, the misdemeanour of the legal artifact continues, and so do the business. Thus, the EU is slipping, with these common values too common, into the aisles of history. »
