A state can be distinguished from a government. The state is the organization, while the government is the particular group of people or administrative bureaucracy that controls the state apparatus at any given time. In other words, governments are the means by which state power is used. Many policies are then shaped by institutional bludgeoning, and many factors are put forward as explanations for a democratic malaise: institutional fatigue, misinformation and smear campaigns, radicalization of public debate, loss of a common cultural frame of reference, deepening social inequalities.This book discloses information that the public needs to know and deliberate on. This information implies transgressing the limits surrounding state secrets, with the aim of challenging the attribution or use of power, between line and responsible declaration. It's a position that's totally different from the media.Enjoy your reading.
