«De guerre en guerre» is Edgar Morin's essay, published by Editions de l’Aube in paperback (104 pages, in French).
Edgar Morin reviews the wars he has known from 1940 to the war in Ukraine: the Second World War, Algeria, Yugoslavia and Iraq. Morin points out common patterns such as the total condemnation of the adversary, false propaganda and the trivialisation of the unexpected, and defends lucidity and work for peace to avoid a new world war.
Edgar Morin, born in 1921, wrote this work as a reaction to the war in Ukraine. It was published on 6 January 2023.
For readers interested in history, sociology and analysis of contemporary armed conflicts.
Edgar Morin was a French philosopher and sociologist of the theory of information who has been recognised for his work on complexity and "complex thought", and for his scholarly contributions to such diverse fields as media studies, politics, sociology, visual anthropology, ecology, education, and systems biology. He held two bachelors degrees, one in history and geography and one in law, and never did a Ph.D.
