Malgré de constants progrès techniques et scientifiques, nos sociétés restent des sociétés de croyances. Les rumeurs, les idéologies, les superstitions restent intimement ancrées dans notre vie quotidienne, alors même que la diffusion des connaissances scientifiques gagne chaque jour en importance. Comment résoudre ce paradoxe : nous accordons de plus en plus notre confiance à la science, tout en laissant aisément se développer des croyances parfois irrationnelles ? Cet essai se propose d'examiner ce paradoxe, propre à nos sociétés modernes, en mobilisant des exemples aussi divers que le mythe du Père Noël, les légendes du 11 septembre 2001, une psychose collective qui gagna la ville de Seattle dans les années 50, le processus d'adhésion à une secte... Quoique sensiblement hétéroclites, toutes ces illustrations peuvent être ramenées à la question de l'émergence et de la disparition des croyances collectives. Quels processus mènent à leur avènement ou à leur abandon ? Gérald Bronner nous fournit une première approche de ces questions épineuses sur la base d'expérimentations inédites en sciences sociales.

"The Greek word eoikos can be translated in various ways. It can be used to describe similarity, plausibility or even suitability. This book explores the philosophical exploitation of its multiple meanings by three philosophers, Xenophanes, Parmenides and Plato. It offers new interpretations of the way that each employs the term to describe the status of their philosophy, tracing the development of this philosophical use of eoikos from the fallibilism of Xenophanes through the deceptive cosmology of Parmenides to Plato's Timaeus. The central premise of the book is that, in reflecting on the eoikos status of their accounts, Xenophanes, Parmenides and Plato are manipulating the contexts and connotations of the term as it has been used by their predecessors. By focusing on this continuity in the development of the philosophical use of eoikos, the book serves to enhance our understanding of the epistemology and methodology of Xenophanes, Parmenides and Plato's Timaeus"--
