How France Votes takes as context the presidential election of 1995, which saw the triumph of Gaullist Jacques Chirac, and the legislative elections of 1997, which saw Chirac′s political defeat and the emergence of Socialist Lionel Jospin as the prime minister. How did this reversal happen, and why?
Michael S. Lewis-Beck leads a team of distiguished scholars who survey campaign issues, party strategies, constitutional rules and institutions, and the French electorate in the context of the 1995 and 1997 elections.
