psychopathology at the University of Paris. He is a collaborator
with René Girard and Guy Lefort on the research that is the basis

University and received his doctorate in French from UCLA in 2011.
Bringing together the psyche, which is normally individual, and the
political, which is normally collective, was an excellent idea.
Oughourlian ventures onto terrain unexplored by Girard. The
analysis of the psychological effects of globalized information is
truly innovative.--Olivier Kempf, Professor at Sciences Po, Paris,
author of NATO in the Twenty-First Century
This book should interest all sorts of readers. . . . It expresses
a spark of hope in the face of a future that is at best uncertain
and encourages us to think about the concrete measures to be
taken.--René Girard (from the preface)
We must hope that this little book will become a sort of Princefor
the twenty-first century.--Rémi Soulié, Le Figaro Magazine
