    A Democrat, it was not, it was an evil light. It's little by little,
  • 9:48 - 9:50
    early 19th that it has changed:
  • 9:50 - 9:52
    they went to call the Government representative 'democracy ',.
  • 9:53 - 9:55
    and at the same time it became a positive word.
  • 9:56 - 9:59
    But these are elected officials who have left to do this... because they saw much interest.
  • 9:59 - 10:02
    and it was already the newspeak. Because when you call...
  • 10:03 - 10:05
    In my opinion, the elected representatives feel that...
  • 10:07 - 10:10
    ... the people is aware of itself. When we say "the people."
  • 10:11 - 10:15
    one feels in; We all, and... by the etymology,.
  • 10:16 - 10:19
    even without having a great culture policy, by the simple etymology,
  • 10:20 - 10:23
    the word 'democracy', he was a revolutionary force in him.
  • 10:24 - 10:25
    And...
  • 10:28 - 10:31
    ... people... aspire people, anywhere in the world
  • 10:31 - 10:35
    aspire to the kratos demos, we... We want to decide our fate ourselves.
  • 10:37 - 10:39
    In my opinion... the elect know well.
  • 10:41 - 10:43
    And elected officials are aware also that the Government representative
  • 10:43 - 10:45
    It is not democracy.
  • 10:46 - 10:48
    So they have, elected officials really have an interest...
  • 10:48 - 10:50
    I'm not sure this is aware.
  • 10:50 - 10:53
    Because it is possible that this is unconscious, eh. I... not at all...
  • 10:54 - 10:57
    Whether a conspiracy or not... I don't care completely. It is equal ca.
  • 10:57 - 11:01
    But... the elect let do: they leave call 'democracy ',.
  • 11:02 - 11:04
    the regime that gives them their elected all political power.
  • 11:06 - 11:09
    It suits them well, since it is they who have the power. They are candidates:
  • 11:10 - 11:13
    one day or another they will have. All male parties are like that.
  • 11:14 - 11:17
    And thus the word 'democracy', it has been, to have been flying.
  • 11:19 - 11:22
    Not from the outset, because I tell you, they called it not "democracy" at the beginning.
  • 11:23 - 11:26
    But very quickly, beginning of the 19th, before even that Tocqueville writes
  • 11:26 - 11:28
    "Of democracy in America", referring to a plan
  • 11:28 - 11:31
    that was not a democracy. As early as before...
  • 11:33 - 11:35
    It was 25-35 the two volumes of...
  • 11:36 - 11:38
    I believe 25...
  • 11:40 - 11:44
    I believe 1825-1835 "of democracy in America.
  • 11:44 - 11:47
    And I believe that already before we had traces of the use of the word 'democracy '.
  • 11:48 - 11:52
    for the... A Rosanvallon, who wrote a good article on it. He wrote an article in 93
  • 11:52 - 11:56
    on this transformation of... of a regime that is not democracy in democracy,
  • 11:56 - 11:58
    trying to understand at what point and why it happened.
  • 11:58 - 12:00
    Important the work of historian of Rosanvallon.
  • 12:01 - 12:03
    Rosanvallon is not a revolutionary, ca this is the least that can be said:
  • 12:04 - 12:07
    in its conclusions and in its proposals, it is...
  • 12:08 - 12:11
    Me, I find very disappointing ca, because in his work as an historian
  • 12:12 - 12:14
    to explain how humans resistant to abuse of power...
  • 12:15 - 12:18
    Pretty darn important what Rosanvallon. Rosanvallon says...
  • 12:19 - 12:23
    ... Since Athens, point by point, what humans are doing to resist
  • 12:23 - 12:26
    the abuse of power. It's pretty darn interesting. It is a mine,
  • 12:26 - 12:29
    an ideas mine to resist.
  • 12:30 - 12:34
    Rosanvallon is interesting. In its conclusions, it is...
  • 12:34 - 12:37
    ... it is not him who will make projects of... an alternative, but...
  • 12:38 - 12:40
    Because it is too...
  • 12:41 - 12:45
    How to tell? Conservative? It is not a revolutionary.
  • 12:46 - 12:48
    But it is a work of historian precious for us.
  • 12:49 - 12:51
    Therefore the newspeak, Yes, it has been poking a few important words:
  • 12:52 - 12:54
    the word 'democracy', the word "suffrage", yeah.
