Title : History of the caviar left - Laurent Joffrin - book
Summary :
Suspicious because nothing explains why a bourgeois elite would rally to the causes of a people from which it did not originate, the "caviar left" irritates. Yet, from Voltaire to Kennedy, including Hugo, Keynes, and Blum, it was a major architect of social progress. Deploring its current dissolution into an aristocracy of money cut off from reality, Laurent Joffrin advocates for the re-engagement of the great men of the left in society.
Editorial director of Le Nouvel Observateur, Laurent Joffrin is also a writer and producer. Passionate about history, he has written numerous novels and essays, including La Régression française, available in Points.
"Laurent Joffrin traces the history of aristocrats, wealthy bourgeois, and intellectuals who took up the cause of the most humble at the risk of being denounced as traitors to their class. Fascinating."
