The French Fifth Republic and populism : a neo-institutional analysis of the Front nationalFieschi, Catherine. January 2000 (has links)
The aim of the thesis is to offer an explanation for the emergence and success of the French political party the Front national. The project uses theories of political opportunity structures, neo-institutionalist approaches and a theory of ideological morphology to argue that institutions and ideologies have particular links to one another. This, in turn, leads to the argument that the FN's success can be attributed to the relationships between the institutions of the Fifth Republic on the one hand and fascist ideology in France on the other. It is argued that the gradual presidentialisation of French politics from 1958 onward reconciles two contradictory drives in French politics (the party drive and the rally drive), this reconciliation of the two drives and the institutionalisation of the rally drive grants renewed legitimacy to populist ideas in France. It is also argued that, given the component concepts of fascism as an ideology (its ideological morphology) and the links between ideologies and the contexts (institutional, social, political) in which they emerge, institutional pressures such as those generated by the Fifth Republic and its subsequent presidentialisation accounts for a mutation of French proto-fascism into a type of populist ideology. The FN's modification of its fascist ideology and conversion to an overt form of populism is depicted and analysed as a case study of a party's adaptation to, and exploitation of, the new structures of political opportunity created by the Fifth Republic; one in which populist ideas were more likely than fascist ones to lead to a measure of political success given the institutionalisation of a form of hitherto marginalised rally politics.

La beauté est dans la rue : art & visual culture in Paris, 1968Scott, Victoria Holly Francis 11 1900 (has links)
Removed from its artistic origins in the French avant-garde during the interwar
period, the European based group known as the situationist international is often
represented as being solely occupied with politics to the exclusion of all else, particularly
art and aesthetics. In what follows I argue that throughout the sixties the anti-aesthetic
position was actually the governing model in France obliging the avant-garde to adjust
their strategies accordingly. Artists and artists' collectives that placed politics before
aesthetics were the norm, enjoying widespread popularity and recognition from both the
public and the French State. These overtly partisan groups and individuals sapped art of
the power it had enjoyed in the fifties as a venue removed, or at least distanced from,
formal politics. In response, the situationists officially rejected the art world, turning to
the popular and vernacular culture of the streets in an attempt to get beyond both
classical aesthetic principals and the overt propagandistic objectives of groups such as le
Salon de la jeunePeinture. Turning to the climactic moment of 1968 I track the ways in
which these debates informed the posters and graffiti which marked the unfinished
revolution, sorting out the various aesthetic positions and political persuasions that
dominated the events. My thesis contends that the situationists were not anti-aesthetic,
that they simply advocated a different kind of aesthetics: one that rejected traditional
notions of beauty for the more active and open concept of poiesis or poetry. Beyond
words on a page, this notion implied art as a way of life, emphasizing production,
creation, formation and action and can be traced back to the groups prewar origins in the
Dada and surrealist movements. Moreover, this concept of poetry was not adverse to
issues of form being highly dependent on the materiality and physicality of the urban
centre, specifically the streets. Finally my conclusion expands upon the similarities
between this notion of poetry and the 17th century understanding of beauty, the latter
concept being associated with a subtle criticality and strategic wit. It was this
interpretation of beauty that defined and produced the art of 1968.
