This book first presents conflicting views on globalization and then focuses on its present spectacular crisis. Considerable attention is given to the backlash against globalization represented by Donald Trump's surprise election in the U.S. The proposals for the U.S. economy of the internationally acclaimed economist, Joseph Stiglitz, which he exposed in his 2015 book "Rewriting the Rules of the American Economy", are compared and contrasted with Donald Trump's agenda. Also examined: the present crisis of Latin America's anti-globalization governments and the outstanding performance of the...

Les Métamorphoses d'Ovide (43 avant J-C – 17 après J-C) constituent une oeuvre épique de douze mille vers composée en 15 Livres. Deux cent quarante-six fables racontent les transformations d'hommes, de dieux ou de héros en animaux, plantes ou minéraux par la magie ou la volonté des dieux. On y reconnaît des légendes antiques, comme le jugement de Pâris, ou les mythes de Phaéton conduisant le char du Soleil, celui de Persée et Andromède, ou encore ceux des Argonautes et du roi Midas.

When I was preparing to become a priest and missionary 52 years ago, I was then 23 years old and living in Ottawa. I wrote two memoirs for my master’s degree in philosophy. The first memoir was on the American psychotherapist Carl Rogers and the second one on the French philosopher Aimé Forest.

A book to help the general public and students understand the climate justice debate. Includes my 1989 class handout based on the Brundtland Report of 1987 "Our Common Future" and the January 1989 special issue of Time Magazine, "Planet of the Year: Endangered Earth". I point out the similarities between Klein's bestseller, "This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. the Climate", and Pope Francis' climate encyclical, "Laudato Si". I also argue that both Pope Francis and Klein, while appearing to call into question capitalism itself, are really taking aim at its unbridled, neoliberal version. ...

The surprise attack on Israel by Hamas on October 7, 2023 shook the world, with many observers calling it Israel's 9/11, in memory of the tragedy that occurred in the USA on September 11, 2001. For me, the Hamas attack, and above all Israel's incredibly destructive and murderous invasion of Gaza in the weeks and months that followed - an invasion supported, politically and militarily, by the United States - brought back memories of another 9/11. The one I lived through in Chile over 50 years ago, when in 1973 a military junta, with the full support of the United States, overthrew the ...

"Ovide, read the report Control and Abuse Investigation on Thomas Philippe, Jean Vanier and L’Arche (1950-2019). It is an excellent report. It is even more impressive than the McCarrick Report, told me François Gloutnay of Présence magazine in a telephone conversation. I had just sent an e-mail to François congratulating him, not only for the article he had just published on this report, but also for all the others he had had the courage to write in the past on the Catholic Church’s clergy abuse crisis. Articles which are obviously not making him popular in many Catholic circles (...

"Les Métamorphoses sont composées au début de l'ère chrétienne par le poète latin Ovide, juste avant sa relégation sur les rives de la mer Noire. Ce recueil est constitué d'une multitude de courts récits inspirés des mythologies, des épopées et des tragédies grecques et romaines. Un livre-monde, tour à tour édifiant, galant et burlesque dont la voix inspirée de Michel Vuillermoz, sociétaire de la Comédie-Française, révèle l'esprit et les saveurs." Claude Colombini Frémeaux

Telling the story of a Nicaraguan family, especially one as impressive as the Zelaya Blandón family, represents a daunting yet rewarding task. When writing their autobiographies and recalling the trials and hardships, as well as the profound joys of the Nicaraguan Sandinista revolution, all were emotional. During our interview with Nellys, a beautiful and amazingly powerful exchange, she broke into tears from time to time; and some of us were also in tears. When Thelma wrote her testimony, she could not, at times, hold back her tears, so deep and moving were her memories. "Our parents ...

I was plunged into such a deep shock and sadness, that I was forced to ask myself what had gone wrong. Why would my lifelong friend Tom, raised on the farm by a wonderful mom and dad exactly like I had been, end up doing such a horrible thing as abusing minors? Why in the world would such a thing ever happen in such an extraordinary, loving and close-knit family as that of Tom! Why?

L'Église catholique chilienne, sous la direction courageuse du Cardinal Raul Silva Henriquez, a joué un rôle remarquable dans la défense des milliers de victimes durant la longue dictature d'Augusto Pinochet. Le Vicariat de solidarité, fondé par le Cardinal Henriquez, a représenté un refuge pour les persécutés, leur offrant aide matérielle, services juridiques, et un espace précieux pour la réarticulation des organisations syndicales, communautaires et politiques. Cependant, cette même Église avait-elle appuyé le général Pinochet dans les premiers mois du coup d'État, et ...

Il m'est très pénible de voir, jour après jour, les événements dramatiques qui se produisent au Nicaragua depuis la mi-avril 2018: environ 340 morts et plus de 2 000 blessés. Une partie de la tristesse que je ressens présentement vient du fait que le Nicaragua est devenu pour moi un deuxième foyer, un peuple avec lequel j’ai tissé des liens très profonds lors de mes séjours annuels depuis 23 ans. Je ressens de la compassion pour les Nicaraguayens qui ont perdu leurs proches, pour les blessés, pour les torturés et emprisonnés, pour les disparus, pour ceux et celles qui vivent...

Cet audio en version intégrale contient les livres 1, 2 et 3 de "l'Art d'Aimer". Dans cette œuvre sans nulle autre pareille, Ovide nous propose une initiation à l'Art de l'Amour, un guide poétique et philosophique de la séduction. D'une modernité surprenante, c'est aussi une réflexion novatrice pour l'époque sur les rapports amoureux.

The diary and letters I wrote when I experienced the coup d'état that ousted Salvador Allende in Chile on Tuesday morning, 11 September 1973. This coup was carefully planned by the Chilean elite with the help of the CIA, and included propaganda, economic sabotage, torture, total press censorship, assassination, and a radical free market revolution leading to a gross gap between rich and poor.

The only textbook I have ever produced that many of my students found difficult to stop reading. Includes a significant portion of the diaries and letters I wrote when I experienced the 1973 coup d'état that ousted Salvador Allende. Provides an overview of Chilean history from 1964 to 2014, with a special emphasis on the first year of the coup.

When I was preparing to become a priest and missionary fifty-two years ago – I was then 23 years old and living in Ottawa – I wrote two memoirs for my master’s degree in philosophy. The first memoir was on the American psychotherapist Carl Rogers and the second one on the French philosopher Aimé Forest. Today, with the hindsight that half a century allows me to have, I am very impressed by the fact that the worldviews underlying Aimé Forest’s philosophical approach and Carl Rogers’ person-centered therapy remain not only very relevant in 2018, but also, in my opinion, urgently ...

Me resulta muy doloroso ver, día a día, los dramáticos acontecimientos que se han desarrollado en Nicaragua desde mediados de abril de 2018. Dolor debido a todas las muertes, los heridos, los encarcelados, los torturados, los desaparecidos y los miles que ahora huyen a otros países. Dolor debido a la destrucción masiva, no solo a edificios e infraestructura, sino también a una economía que ahora se está derrumbando. Y dolor debido a los profundos lazos emocionales que he desarrollado a lo largo de los años con los nicaragüenses, y esto en ambos lados de la división política ...

“Major report, as solid as dismaying”, asserts Louis Cornellier in his review of François De Labarre’s Vatican Offshore : l’argent noir de l’Église (2023). The fundamental thesis of this book is that Pope Francis is successfully waging a courageous and remarkable struggle against the financial corruption in which the Vatican City has been immersed for decades. And that Australian Cardinal George Pell has played a decisive role in this struggle. That is why those profiteering at the Vatican are said to have sent a few million dollars to those in Australia who have been ...

A scathing criticism of the complicity of the Chilean Catholic Church in the coup that overthrew Salvador Allende in September 1973. A criticism which, in the present strong backlash against globalization and in the context of a Catholic Church whose leader, Pope Francis takes a very strong stand against a system that excludes and marginalizes, remains very relevant in our present world. Ovide Bastien argues that while it is true that the Chilean Catholic Church, under the leadership of Cardinal Silva Henríquez, played an impressive and very important role in helping the persecuted and ...

«Ovide, lis le rapport « Emprise et abus : enquête sur Thomas Philippe, Jean Vanier et L’Arche (1950-2019) ». Il est très bien fait. Encore mieux que celui sur le cardinal McCarrick, » me dit François Gloutnay de la revue Présence lors d’une conversation téléphonique. Je venais de faire parvenir un courriel à François pour le féliciter, non seulement de l’article qu’il venait de publier sur ce rapport, mais aussi de tous les autres qu’il avait eu le courage de publier dans le passé sur la crise des abus dans l’Église catholique. Des articles, qui, de toute ...

This book paints a portrait of one of my greatest Nicaraguan friends, Francisco Escalante Mondragón, commonly known as Don Paco. A portrait whose brush strokes originate from the parts of his life that I have had the privilege to discover since I first met him in December 2000. It also relates some of the unforgettable experiences I have shared with him. Experiences lived when organizing the home-stays and development projects of the Dawson College North South Studies profile in Cinco Pinos from 2000 to 2010. And experiences lived when, following my retirement from Dawson in 2011, I ...
