LA FABRIQUE DE PAUVRES

11 millions en Allemagne, 9 millions en France : c'est le nombre de personnes, comprenant de nombreux enfants, qui vivent en dessous du seuil de pauvreté dans ces deux pays, pourtant parmi les plus riches d'Europe. Cette misère n'est ni un choix ni une fatalité. Elle est le produit d'un changement de paradigme économique et politique ayant débouché sur un nouveau système. En Allemagne, des mères de famille jonglent entre des allocations chômage dérisoires et des "minijobs" à 400 euros. Dans les cités françaises, l'ascenseur social est en panne. En Espagne, les services sociaux sont asphyxiés par la baisse des crédits et des familles endettées se retrouvent à la rue alors même que les banques ne parviennent plus à vendre les logements vacants qu'elles ont saisis. Autant de témoignages qui illustrent une pauvreté "héritée" dès l'enfance et le sentiment d'impuissance et de honte de ceux qui en sont victimes. Sociologues et politologues mettent en garde : dans des sociétés européennes "en situation d'urgence", le démantèlement de l'État providence pourrait bien être une bombe à retardement.

Mise à mort du travail



Mise à mort du travail - La destruction 1/3


Dans un monde où l'économie n'est plus au service de l'homme mais l'homme au service de l'économie, les objectifs de productivité et les méthodes de management poussent les salariés jusqu'au bout de leurs limites. Jamais maladies, accidents du travail, souffrances physiques et psychologiques n'ont atteint un tel niveau. Les histoires d'hommes et de femmes que nous rencontrons chez les psychologues ou les médecins du travail, à l'Inspection du Travail ou au conseil de prud'hommes nous révèlent combien il est urgent de repenser l'organisation du travail.


Mise à mort travail - L'alinénation 2/3

Le réalisateur s'est installé dans une entreprise anodine, une entreprise comme il en existe aujourd'hui des dizaines de milliers dans le monde : Carglass. Mondialisée, standardisée, Carglass est une filiale du groupe anglais Belron présent dans plus de 30 pays du monde. Ici, deux credo : une productivité maximale et un client roi totalement satisfait... Deux notions qui, aujourd'hui, dans toutes les entreprises de services du monde, imposent la mise en place de nouvelles formes de management.


Mise à mort du travail - La dépossession 3/3

L'histoire nous transporte d'une usine Fenwick -- un fabricant industriel de matériel de manutention implanté dans le centre de la France -- jusqu'aux arcanes de la finance new-yorkaise. Petite entreprise française, créée il y a 150 ans, aujourd'hui filiale d'un groupe allemand, Fenwick a été rachetée en 2006 par Henry Kravis, l'un des financiers les plus redoutés des États-Unis. Un homme à la tête du fonds d'investissement KKR, dont les ventes annuelles dépassent celles de Coca-Cola, Disney et Microsoft cumulées. Pour les salariés de la société, ce rachat marque un tournant radical, comme dans bon nombre de compagnies à travers le monde, rachetées elles aussi par de puissants actionnaires. L'objectif de KKR est de faire "cracher" un maximum de cash à l'entreprise, afin de rembourser la dette contractée lors du rachat de l'entreprise sous forme de LBO. Ce qu'il faut retenir, c'est que le seul objectif de KKR, c'est de faire le maximum de profit, sans aucune considération pour les hommes et femmes des entreprises rachetées. Fenwick va donc être systématiquement mise sous pression. Et cela se fera avec l'aide de consultants et de cadres de l'entreprise. Une réalisation efficace, qui allie rigueur sociologique, enquête journalistique et dramaturgie, avec les interventions d'observateurs pertinents - et notamment Vincent de Gaulejac, sociologue, Laurent Hebenstreit, éditeur, Christophe Dejours, psychanalyste, Paul Jobin, sociologue, et Frédéric Lordon, économiste - nous convie à examiner comment, sous couvert d'élimination des gaspillages, de recherche de l'excellence, se met en place un véritable outil d'aliénation. La contrainte de la finance actionnariale est devenue tellement impérative pour les entreprises qu'elle exige l'ajustement instantané. Tout de suite, il faut réduire la voilure, faire les plans sociaux, maintenir comme on peut le profit trimestriel pour la prochaine confrontation avec les investisseurs. C'est un monde dans lequel il n'y a plus aucune marge de manœuvre. Tout le monde est pris à la gorge de partout. Ça se diffuse comme la peste et le choléra réunis dans toute l'économie. Frédéric Lordon, économiste


The big one

 

On his book tour, Michael Moore exposes more wrongdoing by greedy big businesses and callous politicians around America. Web Site http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Big_One_(film) 

 

The Big One  The Big One Poster 

Apres "Roger et moi", où le réalisateur tentait de retrouver le PDG de General Motors qui venait de fermer une série d'usines, "The Big One" est un tour d'Amérique à la recherche de patrons de grandes societés qui affichent des bénéfices records, mais où le travail est de plus en plus précaire. Le réalisateur aura bien du mal à rencontrer les PDG, toujours indisponibles. Il trouvera finalement un interlocuteur, Phil Knight, le PDG de Nike, l'une des societés américaines les plus prospères. Mais la rencontre sera une surprise pour l'un et pour l'autre.

Goodbye Bafana

 

Dir. by Bille August ; screenplay by Greg Latter ; based on the book "Goodbye Bafana" written by James Gregory and Bob Graham ; music by Dario Marianelli

Goodbye Bafana

 

James Gregory once lived in a farm and had befriended a native youth, Bafana, and had even had a photograph taken with him. Years later, now married to Gloria and father of three children (Chris, Brett, and Natasha), James has nothing but shame and regret, as many South African Caucasians in the oppressive Apartheid-era ridiculed him, leading him to hate Africans. He seeks to redeem himself by spying on imprisoned African National Congress Leader, Nelson Mandela. In the restrictive high security prison his job is to censor all written and verbal communications between prisoners, their visitors, and correspondence. James is uncomfortable when he witnesses Caucasian police and security officers' brutality against civilians, including infants, and tries to understand why Nelson became a rebel. This leads him to examine the 'Freedom Charter', a banned document, reportedly known to incite violence against 'whites'. And when he does read this document, he changes his mind about Nelson's freedom struggle. Soon he, himself, will be alienated by his very own peers. Isolated, he receives death threats over the phone and has to face the trauma of the 'accidental' death of Brett. In addition, he and his family are kept under close watch by the security forces amidst tight economic sanctions by the international community, and growing unrest by the natives who continue their fight for equality, and freedom for Nelson Mandela.

Around the World with Joseph Stiglitz

 

Original Version - English / French / Spanish Subtitles , Runtime: 1h27'

 JOSEPH STIGLITZ

http://www.stiglitz-thefilm.com/

In this hard-hitting documentary about the perils and promises of globalization, Nobel laureate Joseph E. Stiglitz takes a tour of the world which strats in his hometown of Gary, Indiana.

As we travel the globe, Stiglitz explains that globalization is not only a story of environmental disaster and presure on wages and working standards. There are countries which have managed globalization well and have found ways to make it work.

Governments who are aware of the potential dangers on unfettered markets, environmental degradation and the limits to free trade can choose a path that works for them and that will ultimately benefit hundreds of millions of people around the world.

This illuminating documentary - featuring one of the great minds of the twentieth century - is ultimately a message of hope.

 

 

The global financial crisis reflects a failure of global economic governance. The failure of America's regulatory system has not only ramifications for the American economy, but for the global economy. It is clear that the banks' risk management systems could not even protect their own shareholders, let alone the well-being of the global economy. What went wrong? Where did the global financial regulators fail? What can we do to minimize the downturn? And what, if anything, can we do to prevent a recurrence? What are the lessons for global governance in the 21st Century? About the speaker: Joseph E. Stiglitz is University Professor at Columbia University in New York and Chair of Columbia University's Committee on Global Thought. He is also the co-founder and Executive Director of the Initiative for Policy Dialogue at Columbia. In 2001, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in economics for his analyses of markets with asymmetric information. Stiglitz helped create a new branch of economics, "The Economics of Information," exploring the consequences of information asymmetries and pioneering such pivotal concepts as adverse selection and moral hazard, which have now become standard tools not only of theorists, but of policy analysts. His work has helped explain the circumstances in which markets do not work well, and how selective government intervention can improve their performance. Recognized around the world as a leading economic educator, he has written textbooks that have been translated into more than a dozen languages. He founded one of the leading economics journals, The Journal of Economic Perspectives. His book, Globalization and Its Discontents, (W.W. Norton June 2001) has been translated into 35 languages and has sold more than one million copies worldwide. Most recently, he has written The Three Trillion Dollar War: The True Cost of the Iraq Conflict with Linda J. Bilmes, published by WW Norton in March 2008.
