Mad about law enforcement, Javert guided his whole life in accordance with a normative conscience, dictated by the scrupulous observance of the rules of society and dedicated himself to efficiently persecuting those who did not comply with them. He put an end to his own life because he didn't bear the way law was diametrically opposed to his conscience. He ignored, even in the end, that good and evil, right and wrong, are only the extremes, not concretely defined, of many whys and how, when and where, who and to whom, absolutely incapable of being summed up in a nationalisation and punishment. After all, he did not commit suicide because of the conflict between law and conscience, but because he failed to perceive the various consciences of the law. We welcome you with the promise that this space will be that of many consciences, dialectics and alternation for the construction and improvement of human laws and their various understandings.
