Association Long live! What happens
Since the strike began at The Association January 10 - those who have not heard can read a summary of not taking part (they are rare) here - I've refrained from comments, hallucinated itself by the turn things were taking. As a wrestling match, we had an employee-side in-their-right-right ... well supported by everyone, and the other the Mephistophelian Jean-Christophe Menu that has even invented bird flu if he had an idea ... Media exposure of a hand forcefully emails, articles, petitions, parties support one side; silence on the other.
I know obviously not all the details - let alone the protagonists in this case - and I'm just a reader-admirer of the Association. But recent events, therefore, roughly one hears a bell, we read about more than caricatures, can be seen passing funny petitions and a rhetoric of insult more than doubtful. I do not know about you, but I have trouble with presentations binary, like this ... with this feeling played more than a variant of the famous scene Festen a negotiation, if not serene, at least objectively.
Tonight I discovered a detailed response from Jean-Christophe Menu, founder of the Association, you can read here.
I found reading it very interesting and I decided to share with you my comments - which will probably not move forward but with all the approximations we have read lately, it is not some subjective remarks - and asserting itself as such - That will inflame the ...
As an working publishing for thirteen years, having experienced storms and precarious situations, I can only find the arguments of Jean-Christophe Menu rational. Many structures are in trouble now. There is never a good solution when employees, catalogs, the authors are at stake is a world of passion, too, where the most daring enterprises are often carried out by snipers, not always pros Communication senior managers or peers, but that lead with a clear vision or even informed, a world where al'excommunication Quick, loving rip what we liked ...
But why, today, prefer, within a structure as atypical as the association, the conflict in the negotiation? Why throw it all in an arena where people who know nothing come inept swing advice in a clear intention of manipulation? What right or defense or anything very clean could justify the attacks ad personam and insult?
I tend - with no advice or expertise required in this particular situation, I repeat - to think that what counts is that such firms continue publishing. This is essential, it is vital. What counts today more than ever, to resist. The flow of uniformity, to piss pots economic reforms in the gloom. That is to say - in this particular case - to publish. Supporting sponsors. To support the books.
I guess my position would be misunderstood by some but hey, they just read these lines, I think I clearly explained, I just have a hard time with the media that mixtures draped in a so-called good political awareness. It is not taking sides, defending the boss versus employee ... but just do not get caught up in generalizations of this kind where the problems are quite different ... and especially that there are solutions to find or invent.
I have faith in the intelligence and talent of the whole team, so Vive L'Association, its sponsors, its employees, Jean-Christophe Menu.
not kidding, I expect future issues without flinching. You can not let us down.
