Fight greed, return to individual initiative. Three ideas inspired the author: The first is that we cannot repair the damage of the financial crisis without clarifying the goals of our particular model of society. It's not just a question of supervising the financial sector; it's, above all, a common vision of how we want to leave the world to our children. The second idea is that of the difficult reconciliation between democracy and capitalism, although their alliance would appear quite improbable. The third is that every human being has a place in society and a role to play. Even if our individual actions seem insignificant, they contribute to the whole and are undeniable demonstrations of the possibilities of a new world. These ideas are the foundation of a new society and the model that Maria Nowak speaks of: an economic market that provides more freedom and autonomy for the people, while protecting them from the excesses of capitalism. Born in Poland, Maria Nowak arrived in France at age 11, an orphan and illegal immigrant. After studying economy and a first job with the World Bank, she created ADIE (Association for the Right to Economic Initiative). For more than twenty years she has helped finance the business initiatives of 85,000 unemployed and poor workers thanks to microcredit.
