With Nicolas Framont (sociologist, founder and editor-in-chief of Frustration Magazine) and Pauline Rochart (independent consultant, author)
With the participation of Mireille Jacotin, Head Curator of Heritage, in charge of the Public Life Department at Mucem.
Pension reform, uberization, malaise at work, loss of meaning, youth and senior unemployment: do we need to rethink the world of work and the time we devote to it? Between union mobilizations, legal reforms and social utopias, is the world of work a space we can reclaim together?

Les Procès du siècle — Oser l'utopie
Cette quatrième saison des Procès du siècle propose d’explorer les utopies concrètes et réelles, les nouveaux modèles à inventer pour avancer vers plus de démocratie, plus d’écologie, plus de solidarité.
Pour vivre mieux, ensemble.
Cette saison 4 parlera d’éducation, de soin, de numérique, d’économie, d’architecture, d’agriculture, de circulations, de respect, de consentement, d’intelligence artificielle, des arbres et des oiseaux. Nous essaierons même parfois d’en rire.

Les procès du siècle — Féminismes, genres, minorités.
Une série de rencontres imaginée et produite par le Mucem.
Réunissant témoins, spécialistes et pièces à conviction, Les Procès du siècle ouvrent un espace d’échanges citoyens.
Après une première saison consacrée aux questions environnementales, cette deuxième saison est dédiée aux minorités dominées, et à leurs manières de s’exprimer, de résister, de revendiquer leurs droits.
Le Procès du siècle, délibérations citoyennes !
Comment parler des bouleversements récents qui touchent nos vies, nos sociétés, notre environnement ? Que disent-ils de notre rapport au temps et à l’espace ? Comment nous situons-nous aujourd’hui au cœur du monde et du vivant ? Quelles mutations, quelles révolutions sont à espérer ou à craindre ?
Le Procès du siècle appelle à la barre plaignants, accusés, témoins et avocats. Il en appelle avant tout à ses jurés, les citoyens.
