Why are we victims of our victories?

Capable of dominating nature and all living things, but how far and how to change course?

Inspiring avenues for reflection from neuropsychiatrist Boris Cyrulnik.

Publicity

Let us question ourselves individually and collectively, we human beings born 

under the sign of the bond,

 to quote from one of the first works of our guest, the famous neurologist and ethologist

Boris Cyrulnik

.

He has never ceased - through his research and discoveries on attachment and the capacity for resilience - to reflect on what builds our humanity, against all odds, despite the wounds.

But in connection, in dependence, in interdependence with our environment and all those and what surrounds us: our human close relations but also the animals and all the other living on earth ...

"We have just understood that man is not above nature, not superior to animals" 

Boris Cyrulnik tells us "T

he domination which has been an adaptation in order to survive only produces unhappiness today"
