For the first issue of Mermoz, the new journal of the Cercle des économistes, we invite you to dive into a subject that touches on the intimate as well as the collective and that says a lot about the state of our society: work. An optimistic but realistic dive to decipher the changes at work, in order to turn it into an opportunity to reshuffle the cards.
This issue brings together a dozen analyses, points of view and dialogues around four key developments: our relationship to work, gender and social inequalities, demography and technology. It is also an opportunity to learn more about our activities with new content on the Kigali Economic Meetings, the Generation Economy podcast or the Best Young Economist Award.
