- Alternate Title: THE GENERAL INTEREST AND ITS RELEVANCE. (English)
- Abstract: State interventions to protect citizens from physical dangers created by others, to manage and prevent the spread of infectious diseases etc. are seen as being in the "general interest". These actions are considered a normal function of any modern democratic state. Each individual and social group has its own understanding of the "public interest", very different from others. Refusal to debate undermines democracy because people who cannot express themselves freely cannot think clearly. No democratic society can survive for long if opponents of ideas are treated like heretics in the Middle Ages or class enemies in communism. Many conflicting interpretations and conceptions of this seductive political slogan have evolved over time. They range from absolute platitudes and meaningless clichés to naive philosophical arguments. The political ideal of placing the mystical model of the "common good" or "general interest" above any individual action is as old as the state and has been discussed every time the question of new regulations has been raised. It seems logical that a government programme which declares that it seeks to achieve the "general interest" should contain a clear definition of this ambiguous term. In reality, clarity is not a concern for the authors of government programmes, who frequently use this slogan to justify various policy proposals or actions. In the absence of a clear, objective definition, such as "general interest", general formulas remain, meaningless and insufficient to draw up a concrete plan, even if it is accepted that the necessary means of action exist.

- Abstract: Les interventions de l'État visant à protéger les citoyens des dangers physiques créés par d'autres, à gérer et à prévenir la propagation des maladies infectieuses etc. sont considérées comme relevant de l'«intérêt général». Ces actions sont considérées comme une fonction normale de tout État démocratique moderne. Chaque individu et chaque groupe social a sa propre conception de «l'intérêt public», très différente de celle des autres. Le refus de débattre porte atteinte à la démocratie car les personnes qui ne peuvent pas s'exprimer librement ne peuvent pas penser clairement. Aucune société démocratique ne peut survivre longtemps si les opposants aux idées sont traités comme des hérétiques au Moyen Âge ou des ennemis de classe dans le communisme. De nombreuses interprétations et conceptions contradictoires de ce slogan politique séduisant ont évolué au fil du temps. Ils vont des platitudes absolues et des clichés dénués de sens aux arguments philosophiques naïfs. L'idéal politique consistant à placer le modèle mystique du «bien commun» ou de «l'intérêt général» au-dessus de toute action individuelle est aussi vieux que l'État et a été discuté chaque fois que la question de nouvelles réglementations a été soulevée. Il semble logique qu'un programme gouvernemental qui déclare chercher à atteindre l'«intérêt général» contienne une définition claire de ce terme ambigu. En réalité, la clarté n'est pas une préoccupation pour les auteurs des programmes gouvernementaux, qui utilisent fréquemment ce slogan pour justifier diverses propositions ou actions politiques. En l'absence d'une définition claire et objective, telle que l'«intérêt général», les formules générales restent vides de sens et insuffisantes pour élaborer un plan concret, même si l'on admet que les moyens d'action nécessaires existent.
