G20 - Part VIII: a cap on compensation?
By Denis on Tuesday 15 September 2009, 23:20

sommet G20 - partie II
By Denis on Friday 5 December 2008, 08:26
Plusieurs raisons ont été données pour justifier la crise financière présente, à tord... Certains points, caricaturaux s'il s'agit d'expliquer la crise, appellent néanmoins de vraies réformes. Une société peut-elle réellement fonctionner sans un minimum de justice sociale ?
