Une des premières recherches approfondies que j'ai pu conduire, aux études, portait sur la gestion de l'eau à Grenoble. Un service public, l'accès à l'eau? La ville avait décidé d'être efficace. De privatiser la gestion de l'eau. Bilan: les prix ont explosé, les infrastructures se sont détériorées.

Taylor: I think building multiracial democracy is harder than building fascism or authoritarianism. Because we don’t want to just grab the levers of power. You want to share power, and you have to figure out how to live together. So I think our project is just inherently more difficult.
