A “thinker of complexity” meets a reformist scholar, an agnostic meets a believer, a descendent of Marronos meets a son of Egyptian exiles, the “noted” Edgar Morin meets the “controversial” Tariq Ramadan
Far from the clichés, it's above all the meeting between two thinkers in their era and in their culture, two Europeans who look there for a common path, and discuss about education, sciences, art, secularism, women rights, minorities one, new Middle East, Israeli-Palestinian conflict, anti-Semitism and Islamophobia, democracy and fundamentalism, globalization and finally, forgiveness.
Two conceptions of the world and the faith, two philosophers of life who just want to listen each other.

Edgar Morin is the author of many sociology and philosophy books like On Complexity (Hampton Press), The Path to Hope (with Stephane Hessel, Other Press), Homeland Earth (with Brigitte Kern, Hampton Press) or The Cinema, or The Imaginery Man (Univ of Minnesota Press).
Tariq Ramadan is Professor of Contemporary Islamic Studies in Oxford University and Director of Research Center of Islamic Legislation and Ethics. Presses du Châtelet are his only French publisher.
