English to French: V. Shiva interview
Source text - English Policy-makers are finally grappling with the growing global food and water crises that are upon us. While they grope for answers, Vandana Shiva reminds them that it was their wild economic schemes that created these crises in the first place.
The globalized economic structure is simply incompatible with the basic physics of the planet and the principles of democratic governance, she says. And until we align the economic system with those of the ecological system, the problems will only get worse. While many of Shiva's books address some aspect of this fundamental problem, one title captures it most succinctly, Earth Democracy, Justice, Sustainability and Peace.
Shiva is a physicist, author, director of the Research Foundation on Science, Technology and Ecology and the founder of Navdanya.
Translation - French Les décideurs politiques se trouvent aujourd’hui aux prises avec une crise grandissante de l’eau et des denrées alimentaires. Pendant qu’ils tâtonnent, à la recherche de solutions, Vandana Shiva leur rappelle que leurs propres conceptions économiques et libérales sont à l'origine de ces crises.
Selon elle, la mondialisation de l'économie est structurellement incompatible avec les lois physiques fondamentales de la planète, ainsi qu'avec les principes de la gouvernance démocratique. Et, à moins de réorganiser l'économie en fonction des réalités écologiques, les problèmes ne feront qu’empirer. Les ouvrages de Vandana Shiva traitent de différents aspects de ce problème fondamental, mais l’un d’eux en particulier, Earth Democracy, Justice, Sustainability and Peace, le résume dans son ensemble.
Physicienne et essayiste, Mme Shiva dirige la Fondation de Recherche sur la Science, la Technologie et l’Ecologie, et a fondé l'association Navadanya.
