Comme en Californie

What are the relationships between Californian New Age and Quebec practices? We take an overview of California and its major trends which influence currents of thought throughout the world, and more particularly in Quebec. The New Age is a convenient label that brings together proponents of "new" therapies and those of "workouts", meditators and computer radicals. It may be that Quebec is only the outpost of the conquests of a new civilization which sells us on the one hand its computer technology and on the other hand its philosophy as instructions.
