“Egoism, as a generalized social constraint, progresses as the social state recedes—undermined by decades of neoliberalization. This is particularly evident among the upper-middle classes, understood as the alliance between the core of the stabilized middle classes and the upper classes, who help spread it throughout the entire social body. On their part, there is no denial of inequalities, but rather an increased adherence to the principles of individual responsibility. As for the working classes, forced to become ‘auto-entrepreneurs’ of their own precariousness, transformations in employment are fracturing collectives and forcing a reliance on individual insurance.
The egoism theorized in this work challenges neither the intensity of social ties nor the number of solidarity commitments. Above all, it is stripped of any moral charge. It is the product of a social functioning adapted to a context of heightened competition for positions and resources. It is necessary to understand its drivers and clarify its consequences in order to build a political alternative.”
