The 2012 French Presidential elections marked a watershed moment
for the French Left, marking their return to a full term of
executive power for the first time since 1981. From early in the
campaign, the victory of Francois Hollande appeared inevitable,
given the unpopularity of the Right-wing incumbent, Nicolas
Sarkozy, and the economic crisis afflicting France. This book
provides a comprehensive analysis of the lead-up to the
Presidential elections, including the political landscape, the
candidate selection and the campaign. It looks at how each of the
ten candidates set out their policy alternatives, and how the Right
in particular failed to present the united front necessary to
defeat a coherent Left challenge. It also examines the events and
outcomes of the subsequent legislative elections, to understand
whether these constituency elections now represent anything more
than an early plebiscite for the newly elected president.
