The MAUSS is in mourning. Our flags are lowered and our Hearts weigh heavy. Just when this issue was going to press, the terrible News reached us that Philippe Chanial, the director of the Revue du MAUSS and MAUSS International had suddenly passed away at the age of 57. We still find it hard to believe that Philippe is no longer with us. He was the most generous, the most luminous, the most gentle and the most intelligent of us. In his person and in his work, he incorporated the spirit of generosity and the delicate essence of solidarity. For thirty years, together with Alain Caillé, he led the Mouvement Anti-Utilitariste en Sciences Sociales. In his own work, situated at the crossroads of sociology, political philosophy and the history of ideas, he unearthed the roots of French cooperative socialism, articulated the anthropology of the gift with the ethics of care and explored synergies between American pragmatism and German Critical Theory. In his last book, Nos généreuses réciprocités. Tisser le monde social (2022) (Our Generous Reciprocities. Weaving the Social World ), which deserves to be translated in English, he opposed his own luminous sociology to the dark anthropology of the riders of the apocalypse. In this issue, we publish his last text on intimate love as a tribute to our dearest friend. The text that opens this issue extends the ideas he exposed in the last issue of this journal (no 3) and closes a Whole period of the MAUSS. Without him, the movement will never be the same.
