Do you know if they've managed to decide on a coordinated increase in the European defence manufacturing base without Macron insisting the French be able to have a go at everything?
No idea if this achieves anything, but indeed I just wrote an e-mail to Heyne Verlag (with penguin randomhouse) and suggested a German and English translation. You never know, maybe it helps me to get a German edition.
oh, that's very nice of you.
It was a joke on my part, though (well not the part about loving the idea of a translation, the part about mailing the publishers :D )
In case anyone is interested: just finished it. Pretty interesting. Can’t exactly recommend bc I feel it would have benefited from more editing (feels too long, nit the greatest story arc). But the vision is intriguing and has many elements worth thinking about.
Recommended for those interested in alternative ways to organise societies. Also feels very French in its take (green decroissance kinda stuff, so interesting in that way too).
Interesting! Brings to mind The Name of the Rose by Eco. His editor advised him to scrap the first 200 pages and then it would be a really good book. With him being a linguist and those 200 pages being the part where he talks about language, he wouldn't budge, however.

Not sure if anti-growth is good for anything but killing the green movement.
