"Pour la philosophie existentialiste, l'existence précède l'essence, c'est à dire que l'homme naît seul, libre et responsable. Il n'est lui-même qu'être et néant, mais il donne, par ses choix et les engagements de son existence, un sens à sa vie. Tout le théâtre de Sartre est empreint de cette pensée. Avec Le Diable et le Bon Dieu, Sartre réalise enfin en Goetz l'unité du personnage et donne une véritable expression dramatique au problème de la liberté."

When Jean Tirole won the 2014 Nobel Prize in Economics, he suddenly found himself being stopped in the street by complete strangers and asked to comment on issues of the day, no matter how distant from his own areas of research. His transformation from academic economist to public intellectual prompted him to reflect further on the role economists and their discipline play in society. The result is Economics for the Common Good, a passionate manifesto for a world in which economics, far from being a "dismal science," is a positive force for the common good.
