Pierre Théberge, Jean Clair 

On the heels of the Roaring Twenties, the 1930s, which spanned from the economic crisis of 1929 to the outbreak of the Second World War, was a dark decade. Beyond similar governmental mechanisms, these regimes shared an ideology: the will to create what they called the "New Man." This decade began with a more or less innocent dream of the theme of the original egg, germination, the harmonious growth of a fabric both biological and social, but ended with the nightmarish discovery of corpses in the concentration camps by the armies of liberation in 1945.
