Alex Posté 12 mai 2005 Signaler Posté 12 mai 2005 Un email que j'ai reçu: Dear Sir/Madam, My name is Giovanni Birindelli. I am writing to you in order to present Demarchy® ©2005 (www.demarchy.com), a short movie which is the novelised synthesis of the concepts of Law and Democracy as described by Friedrich Hayek. I am the Director of Catallaxy® Ltd. (www.catallaxy.com), a recently established consulting and web-design company registered in London and operatively based in Italy. In addition to consulting and web-design, Catallaxy is developing a “bank of creativity” (Creativity Bank®), that is a system of low-cost integrated services for the operative and commercial development of creative ideas and projects. Demarchy will be Creativity Bank’s first product. Demarchy is the story of a sentimental attraction, and at the same time of an ideological incompatibility, between a young man and a young woman who meet on a train from Rome to Milan. Demarchy is the first short movie of a series of four: the following will have as subjects : Liberty (2°), Individualism and Equality (3°), Market and Knowledge (4°), all according to Hayek’s point of view. Demarchy is thus not only a short movie: it is a project inspired by the liberal principles of Friedrich Hayek, Lord Acton, Edmund Burke, John Locke, Adam Smith, David Hume and the other liberal thinkers of all time. This project combines a study activity of these authors with a commercial development of short movies aimed at divulgating their liberal principles to a wider public in a more immediate form. Demarchy, which was written by myself, is being produced by Catallaxy and by PrimoPiano, an Italian video business. The film director is Antonio Mariani. The music will be composed by Erika Giansanti. The cast (Italian and French) is being completed. Shooting dates will start on August the 20th and finish on September the 20th 2005. Demarchy should be available by mid December 2005. Demarchy was written and will be performed in English language. Demarchy is a 100% privately financed project. The movie will be financed by Catallaxy Ltd., Primo Piano, sponsorships, on-line donations and a merchandising project. Demarchy will participate in a series of international short movie festivals around the world. Contacts have already been established for international satellite-tv distribution. DVD distribution will be operated through Demarchy’s web site and possibly through selected stores. More information regarding Demarchy or Catallaxy may be found on the respective websites (www.demarchy.com, www.catallaxy.com). We hope that this project may receive the interest of yourself and that you may consider promoting it. Should you wish to receive more detailed information, please feel free to contact me: my personal email address is gb@catallaxy.com . I would be very pleased to inform you when the movie will be released or presented at short movie festivals in France or Belgium. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Giovanni Birindelli ______________________ Giovanni Birindelli Director CATALLAXY® Ltd. www.catallaxy.com gb@catallaxy.com tel. +44 (0)207 8709173 fax +44 (0)870 7627456 mob +39 347 8719461

Ronnie Hayek Posté 12 mai 2005 Signaler Posté 12 mai 2005 Je suis un peu étonné de trouver Burke dans la liste… <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Certes, mais Hayek vouait une grande admiration à Edmund Burke. http://herve.dequengo.free.fr/Hayek/Hayek2.htm Je ne peux donner de meilleure illustration que la confusion dominante quant au sens de l'individualisme que le fait que l'on présente couramment Edmund Burke, pour moi l'un des plus grands représentants de l'individualisme authentique, comme le principal adversaire de l"'individualisme" de Rousseau, dont il craignait que les théories ne dissolvent rapidement la communauté "dans la poussière la poudre de l'individualisme" [5]. Un autre exemple est que le terme même d"'individualisme" fut introduit dans la langue anglaise par les traductions de Tocqueville, un autre des grands représentants de l'individualisme authentique. Il l'utilise dans sa Démocratie en Amérique pour désigner une attitude qu'il déplore et rejette [6].Il n'y a pourtant aucun doute que Burke et Tocqueville sont tous les deux d'accord sur l'essentiel avec Adam Smith, à qui personne ne disputera le titre d'individualiste, et que l"'individualisme" auquel ils sont opposés est une chose totalement différent de celui d'Adam Smith.
