Society today faces a difficult contradiction: we know exactly how the physical limits of our planet are being reached and exactly why we cannot go on as we have before--and yet, collectively, we seem unable to reach crucial decisions for our future in a timely way. This book argues that our definition of prosperity, which we have long assimilated with the idea of material wealth, may be preventing us from imagining a future that meets essential human aspirations without straining our planet to the breaking point. In other words, redefining prosperity is a necessary and urgent task.This book is the fruit of a long debate among fifteen scholars from diverse who worked together to bring the depth and nuance of their respective fields to questions that affect us all. The result is a rich, transdisciplinary work that illuminates the philosophical and historical origins of our current definition of prosperity; identifies the complex processes that gave rise to the problems we face today; elucidates the ways in which our contemporary environmental, social, nutritional, economic, political and cultural crises are interconnected; and explores why a half-century of economic growth has neither increased life satisfaction in the West nor vanquished world poverty. Approaching these broad-ranging questions from the specific standpoints of their disciplines, each of the authors offers thoughts for the future, considering possible escape routes and proposing changes to the way we live, behave, and organize society and public action--changes that actually respond, in an equitable way, to our deepest aspirations. Ultimately, in laying the groundwork for a public debate on this subject, this book poses a question to its readers: what is your definition of prosperity, and what can be done to promote it?

L'expression "État social actif" a fait son apparition dans le langage politique et journalistique belge à la fin des années 1990. Son usage s'est rapidement diffusé et banalisé, gagnant les grands médias. Le concept a donné lieu à des débats passionnés, laissant toutefois en suspens un certain nombre de questions : est-on confronté à une opération cosmétique destinée à habiller de neuf d'anciens instruments, institutions ou techniques ? Ou s'agit-il plutôt d'une réelle révolution des politiques sociales ? Dans cette dernière hypothèse, les changements se produisent-ils dans le respect des principes de solidarité fondateurs de la sécurité sociale – une réinterprétation de ceux-ci dans le cadre d'une économie mondialisée – ou l'ampleur du virage annonce-t-elle une rupture paradigmatique ? Assiste-t-on à la disparition du modèle de l'État providence ou au contraire à sa revitalisation face aux transformations du capitalisme ? A une capitulation des institutions du vieux continent face au dictat de la globalisation, ou à un formidable potentiel de consolidation du "modèle social européen" ? C'est notamment à ces questions que cet ouvrage collectif entend apporter des réponses issues de perspectives disciplinaires variées (droit, philosophie, économie, science politique, sociologie).
