SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: Degrowth\, a myth? with Timothée Parrique
DESCRIPTION:What if the idea of infinite growth was just a myth? What if our societies could prosper while respecting the planet’s limits? Degrowth\, often misunderstood\, suggests another way forward\, that of refocusing on the essentials\, solidarity and simplicity. What does “living better with less” really mean? What changes does it imply for our lifestyles\, our values and our economy?\n \nTo explore these questions\, we are honored to welcome Timothée Parrique\, economist and leading author on degrowth\, to the FIFDH. His seminal work\, Ralentir ou périr : L’économie de la décroissance\, questions our obsession with GDP and calls for a profound transformation of our relationship with consumption\, work and nature.  \n“Degrowth is not recession\, but an invitation to rethink what makes a successful life and a sustainable society.” (Timothée Parrique) \nThe café-philo will take place at the Bains des Pâquis\, on the pier\, under the yurt\, and will be broadcast live on Facebook and YouTube. Free admission.

SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: What it means to animalize with Kaoutar Harchi
DESCRIPTION:What makes us human? Why and how have we established a boundary with the animal? And what does this separation reveal about our societies\, our hierarchies and our violence?   \nIn Ainsi l’animal et nous\, sociologist and writer Kaoutar Harchi examines how we have constructed the figure of the animal as an inferior\, exploitable\, killable being – and how this same logic has served\, throughout history\, to justify the exclusion and domination of certain human groups: women\, racial minorities\, the working classes. For if we animalize animals\, we have also animalized certain humans\, the better to relegate them to the margins of the moral community.  \nPart theoretical analysis\, part intimate reflection\, Kaoutar Harchi’s book invites us to rethink our relationship with animality and violence\, and to envisage new forms of justice and coexistence. \nThis meeting\, organized as part of the Histoire et Cité festival in collaboration with Les Indépendantes\, will be an opportunity to explore these crucial questions with the author\, in relation to history\, philosophy and contemporary social struggles. \nThe discussion will take place at the Bains des Pâquis\, on the pier\, under the yurt\, and will be broadcast live on Facebook and available for replay on YouTube. Free admission.

SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: Artificial intelligence\, knowledge and society with Monsieur Phi
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing our relationship with knowledge\, work and machines. Between fascinating promises and legitimate fears\, it is redefining the way we apprehend the world\, thought and even our own humanity. Are we witnessing a cognitive revolution? Can AI really think\, understand or know? And what impact will these advances have on society and our daily lives?     \nIn the company of Mr. Phi\, a well-known philosopher\, Youtuber and popularizer\, we’ll be looking at the major challenges of AI\, in relation to knowledge\, robotization and our relationship with machines. What place does the human being still have in the face of ever more powerful systems? What does it mean to “understand” in a world where algorithms produce knowledge without any real consciousness? And how far can we automate decisions without losing control?    \nA fascinating exchange that will lead us to question the philosophical\, ethical and political implications of a future where intelligence may no longer be exclusively human. \nThe café-philo will take place at the Bains des Pâquis\, on the pier\, under the yurt\, and will be broadcast live on Facebook and available to stream on YouTube. Free admission.

SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: How technofascists took power
DESCRIPTION:What if real power was no longer wielded in ballot boxes or parliaments\, but in lines of code\, digital infrastructures and the messianic dreams of Silicon Valley? In their hard-hitting essay\, Apocalypse Nerds\, journalists Nastasia Hadjadji and Olivier Tesquet analyze the emergence of a new regime of authority they call technofascism: a distributed\, opaque form of power\, where the state reprograms itself like a start-up and visionary billionaires – Musk\, Thiel\, Vance\, Yarvin – sketch out the contours of an anti-democratic future.  \nCombining journalistic investigation and philosophical reflection\, the authors map this shift from the political to the technological\, and highlight a disturbing recomposition of the imaginary of power. Far from a science-fiction dystopia\, Apocalypse Nerds reveals a present already in progress\, where the old tension between Enlightenment and Anti-Enlightenment\, democracy and authoritarianism\, emancipation and selection\, is replayed.  \nWe invite you to come and talk to Nastasia Hadjadji and Olivier Tesquet about this captivating investigation\, which questions our relationship with technology\, democracy and the future. \nThe meeting will take place under the Bains yurt\, free admission.

SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: How to respond to the violence of capitalism? with Nicolas Framont
DESCRIPTION:How do we respond to the violence of capitalism? And what happens when this violence is no longer merely structural\, but provokes irreversible action?  \nFor this Philo aux Bains event\, we welcome Nicolas Framont\, sociologist and editor-in-chief of Frustration magazine\, for a discussion based on two of his books: Parasites and Saint-Luigi: comment répondre à la violence du capitalisme. \nIn Parasites\, Nicolas Framont dismantles a well-honed ideological mechanism: that of designating certain populations as “welfare recipients”\, “profiteers” or “burdens” on society. Against this rhetoric\, he asks a simple\, incisive question: who is really living off whom? Through a sociological and political analysis\, he shows how the accusation of parasitism serves to mask the true relations of exploitation and protect the interests of the dominant classes.   \nWith Saint-Luigi\, he takes a different approach\, more directly rooted in a tragic news item: the murder of Brian Thomson by Luigi Mangione. Based on this event\, Nicolas Framont proposes a reflection on political and social violence. What does such an act say about the times in which we live? How can we understand how an individual could commit such an irreparable act in the name of denouncing capitalism? And above all: how can we respond to systemic violence without tipping ourselves into a logic of destruction?     \nAs always at Philo aux Bains\, this meeting is intended as a space for collective reflection\, taking the time to consider the tensions of our times – and the possible paths towards greater justice. \nThe meeting takes place as part of the FIFDH. \nUnder the yurt\, free admission.

SUMMARY:Philo aux Bains: Science\, knowledge and mysteries of the animal body with Virginie Jean
DESCRIPTION:What if certain practices escaped the all-too-simple categories of “science” or “superstition”? \nWhat if\, between technical gesture and intuition\, between accumulated experience and mystery\, there were another way of inhabiting the world? \nAs part of the Festival Histoire et Cité\, whose theme for 2026 is “Comme par magie” (As by magic)\, Philo aux Bains is delighted to welcome Virginie Jean\, cow whisperer. \nIn contrast to a strictly technical vision of animal care\, his work is part of an ancient tradition: that of the “rebouteux” and “rebouteuses”\, who\, through touch\, close observation\, listening to the body and empirical knowledge often transmitted outside academic frameworks\, relieve\, heal and rebalance. \nIs it folk knowledge? An art of gesture? A form of magic?   \nWhat does it mean to “care” when you’re working with living beings\, in close proximity to the body? \nHow can we think about these practices in a world dominated by scientific veterinary medicine? Opposition\, complementarity\, cohabitation?  \nThis meeting will be an opportunity to explore the tensions – but also the possible dialogues – between rationality and belief\, tradition and modernity\, the visible and the invisible. \nIn the course of the discussion\, we’ll also question our contemporary relationship with living things: what does caring for animals say about our way of being in the world? What is legitimate knowledge? Who decides what’s science and what’s folklore?   \nThe meeting will take place at the Bains des Pâquis\, on the pier\, under the yurt. Free admission.
