The DNA of this Blog

-
This blog vows to be a window on the world, a place dedicated to the comprehension of the world.  Somehow a blog is a reflexion organ, a nerve center for collective thinking, a place accessible for anyone who has the urge to learn and understand other perspectives. On a blog, reflexion should has more altitude than mainstream medias which are addicted to slogans and sensationnal news leading to poor quality articles offering no in-depth research at all.

This blog will concentrate on politics and society.  Il will tacke the most important issues that humankind is currently facing and try to dissect problems in order to get to their very roots.  In short, it will try to decipher the world around us.
