This is an extremely widespread idea, in culture, the media or politics: France is, and must be, a meritocratic country, a country where you succeed through the strength of your merit. This argument regularly put forward by the most privileged serves above all to legitimize the existence of the system in place. Does meritocracy really exist? In other words, do we really start out with the same chances in life? Is effort rewarded socially and economically in France? Is it even desirable for talent and work to be rewarded to this extent? Shouldn't we replace the adage when you want you can, with when you can, you want? Elements of an answer with Salomé Saqué.
