Excerpt from French Political Leaders The name of the author of this volume needs no introduction to those who read attentively the French correspondence addressed to American newspapers during the Franco-Prussian war and the period of the Commune. No letters of that description were so clear and satisfactory, on the whole, as those written by "E. K." to the Boston Journal; and it was the reputation thus gained which led to his selection as author of this volume. Mr. King is now in Paris, where all these pages have been written; and this fact has given him the means of securing great accuracy of statement, with the latest light that can be thrown, in that ever-changing country, upon the character and career of each person described. The result may safely be claimed as a work of great interest and practical value, especially for Americans. I know of no existing book, in any language, which comes so near to comprising just the information needed among us in regard to the present political leaders of France.

Gaffney analyzes how de Gaulle came to power in 1958: The drama surrounding the Fourth Republic's collapse, and the focus upon an exceptional individual meant that de Gaulle was able to confer a particular style of leadership on the Fifth Republic. The five Presidents who came after him have each capitalized on their own political 'persona.'

Emmanuel Macron and the two years that changed France by Alistair Cole Pdf
This book looks at the period 2015–18 in French politics, a turbulent time that witnessed the apparent collapse of the old party system, the taming of populist and left-wing challenges to the Republic and the emergence of a new political order centred on President Emmanuel Macron. The election of Macron was greeted with relief in European chancelleries and appeared to give a new impetus to European integration, even accomplishing the feat of making France attractive after a long period of French bashing and reflexive decline. But what is the real significance of the Macron presidency? Is it as transformative as it appears? Emmanuel Macron and the two years that changed France provides a balanced answer to this pressing question. It is written to appeal to a general readership with an interest in French and European politics, as well as to students and scholars of French politics.

The visionary memoir of a rising global leader It was a French election the world watched with anxiety in 2017. There was a wave of populism, fierce nationalism and anti-immigration angst sweeping across Europe and America -- from Britain's unanimous vote to exit the European Union to the divisive election of Donald Trump in the US. Many feared that France too would concede to the aggressive right-wing phenomenon by electing Marine Le Pen, the leader of a far-right party that had for long been on the fringes of French politics.And so the victory of Emmanuel Macron -- investment banker-turned-politician who had never held elected office before -- was celebrated with a sense of relief. His message of openness, optimism, reform and hope had as much resonance in India as the rest of the world. The Guardian called his win an 'epochal political upheaval' not witnessed since the French Revolution of 1789.In Revolution, Emmanuel Macron, the youngest president in the history of France, reveals his personal history and his inspirations, and discusses his vision of France and its future in a new world that is undergoing a 'great transformation'.This is a remarkable book that seeks to lay the foundations for a new society -- a compelling testimony and statement of values by an important global political leader who has become the flag-bearer for a new kind of politics -- evocative in its scope, ambition and vision of Barack Obama's The Audacity of Hope.
