Recenzii
"This is an impressive achievement and essential reading for anyone interested in today's France, its relations with the European Community and its economic challenges."
- John Munholland, University of Minnesota, USA
"By placing the politicians, parties, and policy dilemmas of the 2012 French elections in a deeper history of the European Union and the Fifth French Republic, Irwin Wall has produced a major new contemporary history of France."
- Herrick Chapman, New York University, USA
"Irwin Wall has given us another wonderful book, grounded in meticulous research. France Votes will appeal not only to Francophiles, but to scholars of contemporary France, and to specialists interested in how the electoral process functions in a twenty-first century democracy."
- David L. Schalk, Vassar College, USA
"Irwin Wall's knowledge of the contemporary French political and economic landscape allows him to use the pivotal elections of 2012 as a focal point for his remarkable survey. While the complexity and significance of the elections are made clear, the book places events in a larger European and global context."
