Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: France Votes analyzes the French elections of 2012 in the context of a France and Europe in crisis. With regard to the economy, Irwin Wall describes the ways in which the country's adherence to the common currency in the Eurozone has stripped France of its freedom of manouver. France Votes shows how a European-wide economic crisis was reflected in political crisis at home and the rise of new political extremism combined with mass disaffection from politics altogether. The result of all of this, posits Wall, is that France has become a no-choice democracy.

Download or read book French Elections 2012 Francois Hollande written by Hayley Igarashi and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-04-28 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK Francois Hollande is poised to take the reins of the French government, whether the rest of the world is aware of who he is or not. Put another way, Hollande could just be the next big thing to hit European politics. Rising out of an unenviable political past characterized by a seemingly equal mixture of defeat and triumph, he has quickly and efficiently inserted himself as one of the major frontrunners in the 2012 French Elections. At this point, only one man seems to stand in his way: incumbent French President Nicolas Sarkozy. As a French Socialist, Hollandes radical politics may be just what the French are looking for. He has recently promised that as president he would levy a staggering 75% tax on anyone making more than 1 million (equal to roughly $1.33 million) a year. This promise has proved to be wildly popular with the French people. Oddly enough, however, Hollandes politics may not be the problemit could be his personality. One word is consistently linked with Hollande and his public speaking: bland. While Sarkozy has been eager to point out the dullness of his opponent, even Hollandes supporters seem to agree that their candidate lacks a certain element of flashiness and excitement. Theyre calling Hollande Monsieur Normal, a nickname used by both the opponents seeking to derail his campaign and the supporters attempting to bolster it. MEET THE AUTHOR Hayley Igarashi is a student at UC Davis preparing to graduate this summer with a degree in both history and philosophy. She has been writing fictional short stories since she was a child, and a couple of her pieces have even been published in small online magazines. Only recently has she discovered how nice writing about real life can be, a realization that took surprisingly long considering her background in history. She likes to read and at the moment is most inspired by the writings of Kurt Vonnegut, Jonathan Safran Foer, Kazuo Ishiguro, and because everyone needs a guilty pleasure, George R. R. Martin. When not studying for school, she enjoys doing normal things like hanging out with friends and family and watching movies. Items on her bucket list include sky-diving, running a marathon, writing a full-length novel, and learning how to cook something that tastes good. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK "Hollande early career differs from other politicians in its rather flat trajectory. In fact, an analysis of the first half of his career would hardly lead anyone to assume that the same man would soon make a run for the presidency. Besides a rather privileged educational background, Hollande does not seem to differ too much from the average French citizen attempting to make his living and struggling to find his footing. Little did he know that someday that just might prove to be his charm." "Its an easy strategic move, therefore, for Hollande to claim he despises the rich and their ostentatious displays of wealth. Its a sentiment sure to find support. Unfortunately, the true test of sincerity for Hollande cannot come till after hes elected. He may say hes against the rich now, but I hear those yachts can be mighty tempting and theres nothing like being president of a country to make those illusions of your own grandeur go to your head.

Book excerpt: When it was published in France, Merci pour ce moment, Valerie Trierweiler's memoir about her tumultuous relationship with President Francois Hollande, sent shockwaves through the French political establishment for what it revealed about the President's personal life. In a nation that strives not to pry into the private lives of its politicians, Trierweiler's voice demanded to be heard, and the embattled President found himself vowing to see out his term in the face of rapidly sinking approval ratings. The book went on to sell over 400,000 copies in just three weeks, becoming France's fastest selling book ever. At its heart is a compelling tale of politics, love and betrayal that has electrified a nation. In January 2014, a story in Closer magazine featured photographs which allegedly proved a secret relationship between Hollande and actress Julie Gayet. Trierweiler was subsequently admitted to hospital. She learnt of the President's alleged infidelity from the press, just like everyone else; then the man she loved broke up with her in an eighteen-word press release dictated to the French Press Agency. This is the memoir of an extraordinary woman whose private life became very public as she was unwittingly cast into the eye of a political storm.

Download or read book The French Centre Right and the Challenges of a Party System in Transition written by William Rispin and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-30 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that the defeat of the main French Centre Right party in the 2017 presidential and legislative elections, and its subsequent disintegration, were the result of a failure to respond effectively to the challenges posed by a continuing realignment of the party system. By the start of the Hollande presidency, many sections of the electorate had lost faith in the traditional parties of government and the ideologies which they represented and were adopting a more individualist approach to politics. The Left/Right divide, which had determined relations between parties since the creation of the Fifth Republic in 1958, gave way to a new arrangement, based on three axes – identity, liberal economics and Europe. These policy areas would provoke major differences of opinion among supporters of the Centre Right, and lead a significant number of them to abandon Les Républicains, which was a major factor in the election of Emmanuel Macron.

Download or read book The Last Neoliberal written by Stefano Palombarin and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2021-03-23 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why centrist politics in France is bound to fail This book analyses the French political crisis, which has entered its most acute phase in more than thirty years with the break-up of traditional left and right social blocs. Governing parties have distanced themselves from the working classes, leaving behind on the one hand, craftsmen, shop owners and small entrepreneurs disappointed by the timidity of the reforms of the neoliberal right and, on the other hand, workers and employees hostile to the neoliberal and pro-European integration orientation of the Socialist Party. The Presidency of François Hollande was less an anomaly than the definitive failure of attempts to reconcile the social base of the left with the so-called "modernisation" of the French model. The project, based on the pursuit of neoliberal reforms, did not die with Hollande's failure; it was taken up and radicalised by his successor, Emmanuel Macron. This project needs a social base, the 'bourgeois bloc", designed to overcome the right/left divide by a new alliance between the middle and upper classes. But this, as we have seen recently on the streets of Paris and elsewhere, is a precarious process.

Download or read book When in French written by Lauren Collins and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A language barrier is no match for love. Lauren Collins discovered this firsthand when, in her early thirties, she moved to London and fell for a Frenchman named Olivier—a surprising turn of events for someone who didn’t have a passport until she was in college. But what does it mean to love someone in a second language? Collins wonders, as her relationship with Olivier continues to grow entirely in English. Are there things she doesn’t understand about Olivier, having never spoken to him in his native tongue? Does “I love you” even mean the same thing as “je t’aime”? When the couple, newly married, relocates to Francophone Geneva, Collins—fearful of one day becoming "a Borat of a mother" who doesn’t understand her own kids—decides to answer her questions for herself by learning French. When in French is a laugh-out-loud funny and surprising memoir about the lengths we go to for love, as well as an exploration across culture and history into how we learn languages—and what they say about who we are. Collins grapples with the complexities of the French language, enduring excruciating role-playing games with her classmates at a Swiss language school and accidently telling her mother-in-law that she’s given birth to a coffee machine. In learning French, Collins must wrestle with the very nature of French identity and society—which, it turns out, is a far cry from life back home in North Carolina. Plumbing the mysterious depths of humanity’s many forms of language, Collins describes with great style and wicked humor the frustrations, embarrassments, surprises, and, finally, joys of learning—and living in—French.

Download or read book France After 2012 written by Gabriel Goodliffe and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In May 2012, French voters rejected the liberalizing policies of Nicolas Sarkozy and elected his opponent, the Socialist François Hollande, president. In June 2012, the incumbent president’s center-right UMP party was swept out of government in the ensuing parliamentary elections, giving way to a new center-left majority in the National Assembly. This book analyzes the contexts and results of the 2012 presidential and parliamentary elections in France. It assesses the legacies of the Sarkozy presidency that informed the 2012 electoral campaigns, scrutinizing his domestic social and economic policies on the one hand and European and foreign policies on the other. In turn, the elections’ outcomes are also analyzed from the standpoint of various political parties and other institutional interests in France, and the results are situated within the broader run of French political history. Finally, the book examines the principal challenges facing the Hollande administration and new government of Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault, and assesses how effectively these have been met during their first year in office.
