Les jeunes français, qui disent vivre leur quotidien "sous pression", sont les plus pessimistes de tous les Européens (Galland, 1997). L'école occupe la majeure partie du temps des lycéens, elle est au centre de leurs préoccupations et sa place est déterminante dans la réussite de leur vie. Il va de soi qu'il faut travailler à l'école pour réussir dans la vie ; il va de soi qu'on ne peut pas réussir sans avoir été "sanctifié" par l'école. Pourquoi l'école est-elle si importante et centrale dans la vie d'un lycéen en France ?

1974 : 200 000 demandeurs d'emploi. 2016 : 3 550 000 chômeurs. Qui peut croire que la bataille contre le chômage a vraiment été engagée ? Un éminent président de la République est même parvenu à faire croire qu'en France, "tout a été essayé". Tout ? Tout ! Enfin, tout sauf ce qui aurait pu fonctionner... La recette pour baisser le chômage est pourtant aussi connue - par les multiples exemples internationaux et les préconisations des économistes compétents - que celle des éclairs au chocolat.

Il ne suffit pas de parer aux dangers futurs. L'exigence du développement durable suppose aussi qu'on revienne sur le chemin accidenté que l'humanité vient de parcourir.
