What Dominique Pagani says

Dominique Pagani discusses Claude Morilhat in connection with a review of Clouscard published in 1987 in Société française. He presents it as the first published recognition of Clouscard1; in 2022, he links it to the Espace Marx2. He regards Morilhat as an honest reader of Clouscard3 and devotes two sessions in 2019 to the reply Clouscard addressed to him. He sums up Morilhat's judgement with the formula "indispensable and insufficient"4, which in 2022 he reports as "unavoidable but insufficient". He sets out Morilhat's criticisms: a shifting vocabulary, work done "with an axe"5, and a broad-brush sketch that is hard to tell apart from caricature, notably of the maîtres à penser6. Morilhat also objects that taking potlatch or the totem out of their field is not enough to give them a conceptual dimension7. In 2022, he reduces this objection to a cultural relativism for which potlatch would hold only for Native Americans8.
