Synopsis

On 7 May 1995 Jacques Chirac, leader of the neo-Gaullist Rally for the Republic, was elected the fifth president of France's Fifth Republic. During the electoral campaign, Chirac had promised 'profound change' and a 'break with the past' personified by socialist Francois Mitterrand, who at age 78 was leaving the Elysee Palace after a record fourteen years as president. In Chirac's Challenge: New Patterns of Public Policy in France, John Keeler and Martin Schain have assembled a group of scholars to look closely at the last decade of government in France under Mitterand, Chirac's promise of profound change and the strength of malaise that has gripped the voters in France. In essays that deal with four major areas - Institutions and the Policymaking Process; Business, Labour and the Economy; The Politics of Social Policy; and The Challenges of European Integration - the authors in Chirac's Challenge look at the ways in which this changing socio-political environment will transform the established patterns of policymaking in France. Chirac's Challenge is a timely work that no reader interested in international politics will want to miss.
