Lorsque Jean Detrez, qui travaille à la Commission européenne, a commencé à s'intéresser de manière professionnelle à l'avenir, il s'est rendu compte qu'il y avait une différence abyssale entre l'avenir public et l'avenir privé. La connaissance, ou l'exploration, de l'avenir public, relève de la prospective, qui constitue une discipline scientifique à part entière, alors que la volonté, ou le fantasme, de connaître son propre avenir relève du spiritisme ou de la voyance. Mais a-t-on toujours envie de savoir ce que nous réservent les prochains jours ou les prochaines semaines, a-t-on toujours envie de savoir ce que nous deviendrons dans un futur plus ou moins éloigné, quand on sait que ce qui peut nous arriver de plus stupéfiant, le matin, quand on se lève, c'est d'apprendre qu'on va mourir dans la journée ou qu'on va vivre une nouvelle aventure amoureuse ou sexuelle dans les heures qui viennent ? Le sexe et la mort, rien ne peut nous émouvoir davantage, quand il s'agit de nous-même. Le moment est donc venu de dire un mot de la vie privée de Jean Detrez.
