Selling and buying books differently: it’s vital!
Selling and buying books differently: it’s vital!Mr Globalization - Nov 29, 2023
Books play a fundamental social role. They impact imaginations and push individuals to act.
Books are sometimes the spark that will trigger initiatives beneficial to the common good. Thus, itinerant and second-hand bookstores, book villages and bookstore cafés are valuable and must be protected… in the face of capitalist behemoths like Amazon.
Pleasure seems to be the key word of small booksellers who offer an alternative to the big brands of cultural products. From the bookseller who reads two to three hours a day and is ecstatic to make discoveries every day to the traveling bookseller who sees her job like an ice cream seller, the opportunities for the seller to savor the moment as for the customer do not fail.
Full of gratitude for offering a space for exciting discussions between her customers under the parasols of her stand in Charente-Maritime, Mariel Moulin, 58, explains to the Kaizen journalist that her traveling bookstore promotes small publishers, offers her selections from heart and foam the markets, local events, festivals, and even service centers for the elderly. Small book brands can survive global competition thanks to a handful of enthusiasts.
Imagine, innovate, reinvent, reading enthusiasts turned booksellers are not short of ideas and never cease to amaze us with their way of combining freshness, good humor and work. These “transmitters of culture in rural areas (…) lovers of books and people” as displayed in issue 39 of the magazine, seem to have fun with books as well as with meetings, playing with life and words…

Olympic Games 2024: the revolt of Parisian booksellers
Olympic Games 2024: the revolt of Parisian booksellersEquality and Reconciliation - August 01, 2023
The message is simple: during the Olympics, make way for rich tourists, you get out with your useless and obsolete books. It is basically the injunction of the town hall of Hildingo to the booksellers of the quays, this cultural and professional niche which is nevertheless 450 years old.
Theoretically, the hundreds of dark green boxes will have to be moved for 3 weeks to make room for the athletes during the opening ceremony, all within a “security perimeter” (these will be the Surveillance and Security Olympics). But among the 200 booksellers, we think that the town hall has an idea in mind.
For those who do not yet know the "boxes", these are more or less old books from the French literary heritage, but also comics and drawings, sold on the sidewalks of the Seine near Saint-Germain and Saint -Michel, roughly around the Ile de la Cité, not far from Notre-Dame, like, by chance, whose forecourt will be reviewed and corrected by the globalist promoters.
We stop there, we stroll, we buy an Anatole France for three bucks, we look at the famous poster of Lautrec with his Morue, or his Goulue. Sometimes we ask for a forgotten or forbidden book, because they are in high demand. There are bookstores that still offer rare items, for example journalistic investigations on hot topics, and the prices can go up very high.
On Amazon, the big eater, these prices are sometimes crazy. All it takes is for an old book to be out of stock for smart guys to raise the stakes.
In the 80s, it was at booksellers that you could get the books of Sven Hassel, which have since been reissued. The trade in very old books is more the business of specialists (who are well established in the XNUMXth and XNUMXth arrondissements), with limited or rare editions or autographed works. This is the subject of Polanski's famous film.

Volodymyr Zelensky and ethnopolitics
Volodymyr Zelensky and ethnopoliticsVoltairenet - 13 Dec 2022
President Zelensky has just been named by Time magazine "Politician of the Year 2022".
It is not having carried out his coup de force in July, thanks to the war. He banned all political parties that opposed him; to assassinate the personalities who resisted him; control all the media, written, audiovisual and internet; prohibit the Russian language; destroy 100 million books; confiscate many assets of the oligarchs, including the one who personally financed it; nationalize the assets of Russian investors and companies; and finally banned the Orthodox Church.
In doing so, it conforms to the objective stated in 1996 in the Constitution (art. 16) by the “integral nationalists”: “to preserve the genetic heritage of the Ukrainian people” (sic). It is ethnopolitics, that is to say a policy recognizing the rights of individuals, but based on the Ukrainian ethnic group.

Wikipedia culture, editorial clutter and lies
Wikipedia culture, editorial clutter and liesThe Citizen's Gazette - June 24, 2020
Perhaps the biggest farce in modern tech history is Wikipedia's perception of a legitimate encyclopedia. This site has no qualifications as such, but has all the characteristics of a propaganda machine disguised as an encyclopedia.
Wikipedia has become an ochlocracy, a form of majoritarian governance that bows to the chaos of people power. Editorial management positions are not based on intellectual qualities or subject matter expertise; instead, editorial management drifted into a merit-based aristocracy, itself determined by the number of successful entries and edits.
Obviously, the Foundation does not have the capacity to control the editorial hostility, the malignity, the harassment, the toxic behaviors which are current in the encyclopedia.

The Steiner Waldorf alternative school: The school that makes you love schoolWaldorf Pedagogy - Jan 14, 2021
Founded on the idea that enthusiasm and confidence bring serenity and strength to children, schools based on Steiner Waldorf pedagogy awaken the joy of learning and seek to best respect the rhythms of the child.
Waldorf schools take the spiritual life seriously, which they cultivate in a secular way: neither denominational nor religious. This spiritual life begins with the cultivation of essential qualities, such as wonder, open-mindedness and respect, empathy towards the world, nature and others. It then continues with the emergence of an individual and philosophical thought...
“Our greatest task should be the development of free human beings, capable of giving themselves a goal and a way of life. The need for creativity, the sense of truth and the feeling of responsibility are the three forces at the base of education. »
