The belief in a crisis of unity is constructed, whereas the process of unity through the monopolisation of a cultural and political consensus of the bourgeoisie cannot be denied. The conquest is achieved through the signs of power, the new sacralisation of the modern world : then the wordly signifier through the exchange of signs, becomes reality itself. In this construction which desacralizes the relationship to the other into a pure artifice of relationship, the other is reduced to the expression of the production process or of exchange value. In short, the thinking of the Ecole de Francfort and the Ecole de Paris (German and French Marxists), flagships of a hegemony of thought from the Cold War to the hard line of neo-liberalism in the 1980s, will structure a way of thinking that supports the construction of a European Union of neo-liberal technocrats for countries, annexed willingly or by force into a concert idealizing vice and deifying the market.
