ABSTRACT

Quality control procedures, certifications, company ethic charts, belligerent titles such as strategy director in publicity or oil companies, consultants who write tenders by copy-pasting without understanding anything of their compliance questions, standards, all these Anglo-Saxon origin new terms, in a word all this gibberish should be suppressed to leave our talents express themselves, while avoiding the flow of currency which at the end will allow the Americans to buy even the museum paintings of our great statesmen. By having few TV channels, there will be savings and the young will read more literature, culture, history, science. They will draw the inspiration for new ideas useful to their country and to them while developing their taste and respect for the culture and history of other peoples.

André Malraux, Les chênes qu‘on abat, 1971, conversations with General de Gaulle.
