Une volonté de rendre l’Homme immortel ? Une idéologie dangereuse ? Un peu des trois. Mais il s’agit surtout d’un mouvement intellectuel et culturel né dans les années 80 en Californie qui a pris aujourd’hui beaucoup d’importance.

Il y a trois ans, le magazine New York Times avait publié un article intitulé « Can anyone save French food? ». Un titre assez provocateur mais avec une vraie question derrière. Dans les classements des meilleurs restaurants ou chefs du monde, on trouve en effet de moins en moins de Français.
