I don't know who I am anymore

Thierry Delcourt

Human beings have always questioned their identity in an attempt to understand themselves better and to develop. With the development of our societies and especially the new technological revolutions, the search for the self has become more perilous and dangerous because it is less controlled.
In this essay, Thierry Delcourt discusses the mechanisms at play that undermine our identity. Based on a clinical examination of the teenagers and young adults he follows on a daily basis, he questions our psyche in the face of societal upheavals: Are we going to become virtual, to the point of criminalizing all non-consensual contact and, in fact, reducing social empathy? What are the neuropsychic consequences of AI? What are the consequences of the war in Ukraine and Palestine on our identity? What are the disorders related to contact with YouTubers, blockbusters and manga? The disorders related to the questioning of gender and sexuality? To the radicalization of the political debate, or even to the seizure of power by minorities? To drug use, which is increasing year on year? The search for altered states of consciousness and paranormal phenomena, two very strong trends among young people at the moment?
These disorders affect us all at one time or another in our lives, and particularly in the fragile moments of our development, such as for young people confronted with the world, its constraints and its turmoil.
Secondly, the psychiatrist provides us with avenues for constructing our identity. “The question is not ‘things were better before’, but 'what do we do with the new social, political and economic order and the transformation of the psyche? How can we resist, describe, criticize, get involved, choose, invent, subvert, play, intervene and impose in order to construct our identity properly?

The Republic

Plato

"What is justice—and is it better to be just than unjust?"

This is the question that launches one of the most influential intellectual journeys in history. In The Republic, Plato constructs a "city in speech" (Kallipolis) to examine the nature of the perfect society and the perfect individual. Through a series of rigorous and challenging dialogues, he explores the radical idea of the Philosopher King, the necessity of communal living for the ruling class, and the profound Allegory of the Cave, which suggests that our perception of the world is but a shadow of a higher reality. Whether you are interested in political science, ethics, or metaphysics, The Republic remains the essential manual for understanding the structure of civilization.

The Three-Part Soul: Plato argues that both the state and the individual soul are divided into three parts: Reason, Spirit, and Appetite. True justice, he claims, is achieved only when these parts exist in perfect harmony, with Reason (the Philosopher) at the helm.

A Vision of the Ideal State: From the censorship of poetry to the "Noble Lie" used to maintain social order, Plato's vision of the Republic is both inspiring and controversial. He provides a blueprint for an educational system designed to identify and cultivate the most virtuous leaders, ensuring the city is governed by wisdom rather than greed.

Why It Is a Global Foundation: Alfred North Whitehead famously noted that all of Western philosophy is but "a series of footnotes to Plato." The Republic is the origin point for nearly every debate regarding democracy, tyranny, and the role of the individual in society. To read it is to engage with the very DNA of Western civilization.
