Current events, topics in tune with the times and discovery: two hours to do "The trick of the question". Accompanied by Julie, François Clauss initiates the debate, invites the listeners to exchange live, and surrounds himself with specialists to answer their questions.
Topic 2: Japan: A New Era in the Land of the Rising Sun?
Japan is about to turn a historic page. While the sovereign Akhihito abdicates today for the benefit of his eldest son Crown Prince Naruhito, the time is in the balance sheet of 30 years and five months of reign. In tune with his people, what was the personality of this 125th Emperor? In a country steeped in paradoxes, between tradition and modernity, rupture and continuity, the challenges for his successor are manifold. Where is Japan going? What inspires us? What are the possible bridges with our own culture?
