Alors que l'Assemblée générale des Nations unies se poursuit encore plusieurs jours avec sa litanie de discours des dirigeants du monde entier, c'est dans la très grande tour de verre de New York que nous posons nos valises aujourd'hui : l'ONU. Ce que le Général De Gaulle appelait le "Machin" en son temps est critiquée pour son impuissance apparente à empêcher les conflits. C'est pourtant le cœur de sa mission depuis sa création en 1945. Alors à quoi sert encore l'ONU ? C'est la question que l'on pose aujourd'hui dans "Parlons-en".

Aujourd'hui, Barbara Lefebvre, professeure d'histoire-géographie, Jean-Loup Bonnamy, professeur de philosophie, et Bruno Poncet, cheminot, débattent de l'actualité autour d'Alain Marschall et Olivier Truchot.

Emmanuel Macron va reconnaître l'Etat de Palestine devant l'Assemblée générale des Nations Unies.

Uma constante tanto nos Presidentes de esquerda e direita que governaram França na V República é a noção que a solução dos dois Estados será a melhor maneira para resolver o conflito no Médio Oriente. O reconhecimento da Palestina hoje como Estado por Emmanuel Macron é um passo nessa direcção, estando também esta decisão a abalar a política interna do país. França reconhece hoje o Estado da Palestina, um reconhecimento que vem reforçar a posição francesa desde os anos 60, que a paz no Médio Oriente só será alcançada através de uma solução de dois Estados. Assim, o reconhecimento solene hoje na sede das Nações Unidas, em Nova Iorque, no início da Assembleia Geral, é um dos "raríssimos consensos" à esquerda e à direita entre todos os Presidente franceses, segundo Eric Monteiro, professor de Ciências Políticas da Universidade de La Rochelle. "Desde o início da V República, em 58, todos os presidentes da República da França, quer sejam de esquerda ou da direita, sempre apoiaram a solução de dois Estados. No início da V República, durante os primeiros anos da criação do Estado de Israel, e quando o general De Gaulle chegou a poder, apoiou abertamente Israel e, aliás, foi um dos raros países a vender armas e equipamento militar ao Estado de Israel para a sua própria defesa, incluindo aviões de caça da marca Dassault. A política mudou um bocadinho depois, a partir de 67, devido à Guerra dos Seis Dias, que foi condenada pelo general De Gaulle como sendo uma guerra preventiva e a partir daí, ele próprio e todos os chefes dos Estados franceses até hoje, incluindo Macron, sempre reafirmaram que a única solução viável era uma solução a dois Estados. Portanto, hoje assistimos a uma concretização que vem sendo constante desde há décadas", explicou o académico. Este reconhecimento está submetido a condições, nomeadamente só haverá uma embaixada de França na Palestina quando o Hamas abandonar definitivamente a Faixa de Gaza e todos os reféns israelitas forem devolvidos às suas famílias, segundo indicou o Presidente da República. "Há um reconhecimento total do direito à existência do Estado da Palestina e há uma afirmação clara e evidente do não reconhecimento ao terrorismo. A França foi vítima desde os anos 70 e 80, em força nos anos 90 e, depois, nos anos de 2010 de vários atentados. Portanto, a França nunca reconhecerá ou negociará com forças terroristas. Portanto, é um condicionamento. Vai ser complicado o reconhecimento. Ele é oficial, ou seja, o direito da existência do Estado da Palestina, mas com autoridades democraticamente eleitas, já que se sabe perfeitamente que a autoridade do presidente da Autoridade Palestina é contestada porque nunca mais houve eleições. A questão agora de encontrar um líder que represente o povo palestiniano, que tenha uma certa legitimidade e que não seja oriundo do Hamas", detalhou. Esta decisão vai ser seguida por países como o Canadá ou o Reino Unido, no entanto, esta legitimação da auto-determinação do povo palestiniano não terá grande influência na guerra levada a cabo por Benjamin Netanyahu na Faixa de Gaza, segundo Eric Monteiro, professor de Ciências Políticas da Universidade de La Rochelle, sendo interessante acompanhar o que acontece em França já que várias autarquias ameaçam hastear a bandeira palestiniana, provocando a ira de quem apoia Israel. "Este reconhecimento não terá interferência nenhuma nas decisões do governo Netanyahu. [...] A questão que se põe hoje na França é a incidência que isso pode ter na política interna. Por exemplo, há um debate enorme hoje, sabendo que muitos presidentes de câmaras municipais afirmaram que iam, de maneira simbólica, hastear na fachada das câmaras municipais a bandeira do Estado da Palestina. Houve o caso quando houve a invasão pela Rússia da Ucrânia, em solidariedade, a maior parte dos municípios da França hasteou a bandeira ucraniana. A questão é saber se agora, para cada conflito, vamos hastear bandeiras. Uma solução que me parece estar de acordo com o que pensaram os sucessivos governos franceses se se quiser hastear a bandeira hoje, é hastear as duas, porque isso é o reflexo do que quer o povo francês e sucessivos governos, quer de esquerda quer de direita", concluiu.

A Quinta República foi desenhada por De Gaulle para ser estável, mas o esgarçamento das prerrogativas presidenciais por Macron ajudou a pôr o país num ciclo contínuo de crise. Thomás Zicman de Barros, analista político Em meio à convulsão social e à crise política que têm marcado a França, vale tomar recuo. É fácil perder o foco nas intrigas palacianas, nas disputas no Parlamento, nos cálculos eleitorais e no jogo de culpas sobre quem acendeu o estopim de confrontos entre polícia e manifestantes. Quando afastamos a câmera, no entanto, a imagem fica nítida: Emmanuel Macron tem grande responsabilidade na instabilidade de um regime desenhado para ser estável. Como adiantei há duas semanas, na segunda-feira, 8 de setembro, a Assembleia Nacional derrubou o então primeiro-ministro François Bayrou: a confiança no governo foi rejeitada por 364 votos a 194. No dia seguinte, sem surpreender ninguém, Macron nomeou Sébastien Lecornu — um de seus aliados mais próximos — para o cargo. Ainda assim, a cena é espantosa: Lecornu é o quinto primeiro-ministro desde a reeleição de Macron, em 2022. Sim, o quinto — depois de Élisabeth Borne, Gabriel Attal, Michel Barnier e o próprio Bayrou. E os quatro últimos se revezaram só no último ano. Por que isso chama a atenção? Porque a Quinta República foi desenhada por Charles de Gaulle para estabilizar a política francesa, marcada, no pós-guerra, por crises sucessivas. O arranjo institucional levou ao limite o poder presidencial. Antes de chegar ao Palácio do Élysée, François Mitterrand descreveu esse desenho como um “golpe de Estado permanente”, por permitir que presidentes carismáticos tutelassem o Parlamento e contornassem o Legislativo por meio de referendos. Em 2000, a redução do mandato presidencial para cinco anos e a sincronização do calendário com as legislativas reforçaram ainda mais a estabilidade, praticamente eliminando a coabitação — quando o presidente perde a maioria e precisa nomear um primeiro-ministro da oposição. À luz disso, a crise quase permanente dos últimos anos salta aos olhos. É verdade que a turbulência é global. Mas Macron tem contribuído para agravá-la. Desde 2017, ele usa mal a poderosa caixa de ferramentas do presidencialismo francês — a ponto de desgastá-la. Seus predecessores, mesmo fortes, procuravam exercer prerrogativas dialogando com as forças sociais e políticas, os chamados “corpos intermediários”. Macron, jovem, ousado e estreante que por um capricho da história chegou ao topo, escolheu a via oposta. Chegou a descrever os franceses como “gauleses refratários à mudança”, dependentes do Estado, e defendia transformar o país numa “start-up nation” de cima para baixo — o que implicava pouco ou nenhum diálogo com sindicatos, prefeitos e partidos. Esse voluntarismo sem lastro levou à crise dos Gilets jaunes (Coletes amarelos), que incendiou o país entre o fim de 2018 e o início de 2019. Em 2022, veio a façanha: garantir a própria reeleição e, ao mesmo tempo, perder a maioria parlamentar — algo que poucos julgavam possível. Em 2024, ao tentar reverter o quadro com uma dissolução surpresa da Assembleia, reduziu ainda mais a bancada presidencial e agravou a crise de legitimidade. Ao longo de todo esse período, Macron — que em 2019 chegou a evocar De Gaulle para sustentar que um presidente sem apoio popular deveria renunciar, como o próprio fez em 1969 após perder um referendo — recusou-se a mudar de rumo. Preferiu explorar uma Assembleia fragmentada para fazer avançar políticas sem apoio majoritário. O resultado está à vista: em vez de “virar a página” da extrema direita, como havia prometido, os anos de Macron no poder assistiram à normalização e ao fortalecimento desse campo. Enquanto isso, a insatisfação que não encontra saída no Parlamento transborda novamente para as ruas. Lecornu tomou posse em 9 de setembro, na véspera do primeiro ato do movimento “Bloquons tout” (“Vamos bloquear tudo”). E, nesta quinta, 18 de setembro, está previsto o segundo momento da mobilização social, com as principais centrais convocando uma greve nacional. Em resumo: Macron conseguiu pôr uma República desenhada para a estabilidade no centro de um redemoinho. E não importa quantos primeiros-ministros se sucedam: a crise não se resolverá sem conversa, compromisso, concessões — e uma mudança de rumo capaz de reconstruir maiorias populares.

Oui ou non : Emmanuel Macron va-t-il remettre le référendum sur le devant de la scène ? Inutilisé depuis vingt ans, ce mécanisme voulu par Charles de Gaulle prend la poussière. Entre outil de démocratie directe et coup de poker, il a façonné la vie politique de la Vème République. Cette semaine, La Loupe revient sur quatre referendums marquants avec l'historien Nicolas Rousselier et Eric Mandonnet, le rédacteur en chef du service politique de L'Express. Dans ce deuxième épisode, on part en 1969, quand le référendum a précipité la chute de Charles de Gaulle. Retrouvez tous les détails de l'épisode ici et inscrivez-vous à notre newsletter.

Mes chers camarades, bien le bonjour ! Dans quelques jours, vous allez pouvoir entendre sur le podcast un nouvel entretien historique, en compagnie de l'historien Laurent Warlouzet. Cet entretien, il a été enregistré le 5 mai, et donc, vous en conviendrez, à quelques jours du 9 mai. C'est fou, non ?! En réalité, pas tant que ça ! Par contre, le 9 mai, c'est la Journée de l'Europe. Et ça, c'est une excellente raison pour revenir sur l'histoire de la construction européenne, ce qu'on fera donc très bientôt avec Laurent, qui en est spécialiste ! Mais pour patienter, je vous propose de découvrir quelle était la vision de De Gaulle sur cette construction européenne, et quel impact il a pu avoir dessus ! Bonne écoute !

ORELLA: “Trump está aprovechando los acontecimientos en Polonia para llevar el agua a su cauce”En la entrevista con José Luis Orella, se abordan temas de gran complejidad política y social que afectan tanto a Estados Unidos como a Europa y Oriente Medio, en un contexto marcado por una “tensión brutal” y profundas divisiones ideológicas. Orella señala que “el asesinato de Charlie Kirk y otros hechos similares son motivos ideológicos” y simbolizan un punto crítico en el que “nos estamos jugando los principios de nuestra sociedad, de nuestra manera de concebir las cosas”. El entrevistado insiste en que la radicalización actual no es solo un choque de opiniones, sino un “fomento del odio” que lleva incluso a la violencia extrema, reflejando una división social irreconciliable.En cuanto a la guerra en Ucrania, Orella explica que Rusia aprovecha el momento militar para consolidar su control sobre el Donbass, buscando “adueñarse definitivamente” de territorios para fortalecer su posición en futuras negociaciones. Además, destaca la fractura política interna en Polonia, donde figuras como Donald Tusk y el presidente Nabrowski mantienen visiones contrapuestas que influyen en la política europea y en la relación con Occidente y Rusia.Respecto a Europa, el análisis es crítico: “Europa no tiene capacidad de unión y no hay un liderazgo de nadie que lo pueda llevar”. Orella subraya la ausencia de figuras políticas fuertes, comparando la situación actual con la falta de referentes como De Gaulle o Adenauer. Explica que “el modelo europeo está muy unificado entre liberales, verdes y socialistas, con un Partido Popular cada vez más de centroizquierda”, lo que provoca la fragmentación y el auge de partidos conservadores y patriotas que desafían el statu quo.Sobre la pérdida de soberanía nacional, el entrevistado comenta que “las élites enriquecidas no tienen patria, su patria es el dinero”, y que intentan imponer un modelo globalista que busca uniformar valores, pero “las sociedades están prestando cada vez más resistencia”, especialmente en Europa del Este, donde líderes como Orbán representan una generación que vivió el comunismo y lucha por preservar la libertad y la identidad nacional.Finalmente, en Oriente Medio, Orella señala un cambio de protagonistas y una gran tensión interna en Israel, donde Netanyahu busca consolidar el “gran Israel” a pesar de la división social y el aumento del antisemitismo, mientras que en el mundo árabe hay deseos de estabilidad y prosperidad económica, aunque con poca disposición a compromisos con Hamas.#trump #polonia #donaldtrump #politicapolaca #conflictorusiaucrania #geopoliticaactual #derechaconservadora #otan #guerraenucrania #eleccionespolonia #liderazgopolitico #tensioninternacional #geopolitica #vizner Si quieres entrar en la Academia de Negocios TV, este es el enlace:   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwd8Byi93KbnsYmCcKLExvQ/join Síguenos en directo ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pSuscríbete a nuestro canal: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2Suscríbete a nuestro segundo canal, másnegocios: https://n9.cl/4dca4Visita Negocios TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pMás vídeos de Negocios TV: https://youtube.com/@NegociosTVSíguenos en Telegram: https://t.me/negociostvSíguenos en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWndTwitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6LptFacebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy

Broadcast from Île de Ré, we dive into France's mounting fiscal mess and political paralysis. With Macron a lame-duck, bond markets charging Paris more than Athens, and a nationwide strike looming, we ask: could Europe's cornerstone become its weakest link? We unpack France's towering state-and-semi-state debts, why Japan can print and Paris can't, the ECB's “will they/won't they” backstop if Le Pen takes power, and how a sovereignist turn could trigger a rewrite of France's constitution, goodbye Fifth Republic, hello Sixth. Along the way: Anglo-Saxon doom-mongering, De Gaulle's Jupiterian legacy, contagion math, and why life in “paradise” can still feel like purgatory. Big stakes, bigger history, and a very French cliff-hanger. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"Vive le Québec libre" a scandé le Général De Gaulle à la foule depuis le balcon de l'Hôtel de Ville de Montréal le 24 juillet 1967.

01:02:26 – Nixon Ends the Gold Standard: A Controlled Demolition of the DollarMarking the anniversary of August 15, 1971, the host recounts how Nixon severed the dollar's tie to gold, ending the Bretton Woods system. He details the lead-up, including the removal of silver from U.S. coinage, France's gold repatriation under De Gaulle, and the resulting shift from a stable bi-metallic economy to a fiat system fueling inflation, de-industrialization, and wealth transfer. 01:17:13 – De-Industrialization, Debt Expansion, and the Rise of Crony CapitalismExplains how taking the dollar off gold dovetailed with free trade policies and the 1973 formation of the Trilateral Commission. America's manufacturing base was hollowed out, trade surpluses ended, and debt skyrocketed from $371 billion in 1971 to $37 trillion today. The conversation ties this to corporate consolidation, zombie companies kept alive by central bank policy, and a rigged system benefiting elites. 01:22:33 – The Petrodollar's Decline and Global De-DollarizationReviews the 1970s Kissinger-brokered petrodollar agreement with Saudi Arabia, its quiet disappearance last year, and the shift toward multi-currency oil sales. Discusses BRICS expansion, the ruble's rebound after being gold-linked in 2022, and the dollar's shrinking share of global trade from 53% to the low 40s. Notes that central banks are hoarding gold over their own currencies. 01:44:06 – National Security State Origins and the Truman LegacyReads and comments on a Lou Rockwell article tracing the 1947 creation of the CIA, NSA, and the modern national security state. Argues that Truman's policies institutionalized interventionism, subverted the republic's founding principles, and laid the groundwork for perpetual war and surveillance. Links these shifts to Israel's 1948 recognition, Cold War militarization, and the influx of Nazi scientists under Operation Paperclip. 01:52:06 – The 80-Year Cycle, Operation Paperclip, and Cultural TransformationReflects on how the summer of 1947 reshaped U.S. governance through security agencies, covert power structures, and foreign entanglements. Notes the cultural influence of imported Nazi scientists, with Wernher von Braun as a public face, and draws connections to Cold War propaganda and the militarization of space. 02:00:58 – JFK's Secret Societies SpeechReading and analysis of JFK's 1961 warning about “secret societies” and “monolithic conspiracies,” framing it as timeless advice against government secrecy and press complicity. 02:07:44 – Operation Paperclip & Nazi InfluenceReview of how former Nazi scientists were integrated into U.S. programs after WWII, influencing aerospace, weapons development, and Cold War strategy, with Wernher von Braun as a central figure. 02:15:39 – CIA & MKUltra OriginsExposes early CIA abuses, including the MKUltra mind-control program, as part of a broader national security state agenda to manipulate populations and undermine dissent. 02:47:09 – Trump, Tariffs, and Trade RisksCritiques Trump's tariff strategy as potentially damaging to consumers and allies, warning it could backfire by pushing more nations toward BRICS-style trade blocs. 03:07:17 – NASA Moon Base Plans & Apollo SkepticismNASA's push for a 100-kilowatt lunar reactor sparks analysis of the Artemis program, U.S.–China competition, and a deeper dive into why America hasn't returned to the moon in decades, despite having done so multiple times in the past. 03:33:56 – Space Race & Global Power ShiftReflection on how space exploration intersects with geopolitical changeovers, comparing today's “fourth turning” to post-WWII institution building, and speculating on the existence of a secret space program. 03:45:54 – Red Heifer Prophecy & Third TempleMr. Anderson connects current events in Israel to biblical prophecy, questioning modern evangelical support for temple reconstruction and warning about theological and political implications. 03:50:56 – Decline of Religious ActivismCritique of modern Christian leadership for failing to visibly oppose cultural trends such as the transgender movement, contrasting this with past Catholic and evangelical activism. 03:58:52 – Gold Standard Anniversary & Fiat Currency WarningMarking the anniversary of Nixon taking the U.S. off the gold standard, the host warns about the destructive effects of fiat currency and urges listeners to consider precious metals.

Donald Trump se reunirá con Vladimir Putin en Alaska este viernes para discutir un posible alto el fuego en Ucrania. Hay escepticismo sobre los resultados de esta cumbre, especialmente porque Volodímir Zelenski, no ha sido invitado. Trump ha calificado la reunión como un simple “encuentro de tanteo”, minimizando así expectativas de un acuerdo concreto. En una rueda de prensa que dio esta semana aseguró que, salga lo que salga de la cumbre, se lo comunicará personalmente a Zelenski y a líderes europeos nada más concluir la reunión. Pero esto no ha tranquilizado ni a los ucranianos, ni a sus aliados, que están genuinamente preocupados por lo que pueda pasar en Alaska ya que, hasta la fecha, Trump ha mostrado mucha más propensión a entenderse con Putin que con Zelenski. El hecho es que ni siquiera el propio Trump lo tiene claro. Quiere un diálogo constructivo con Putin, pero reconoce que el resultado podría ser negativo. Ucrania y sus aliados temen que Putin utilice la reunión para obtener ventajas, aprovechando la pésima relación entre Trump y Zelenski. Este último ha advertido que Putin solo busca una foto con el presidente de Estados Unidos en suelo estadounidense para venderlo como una victoria personal, pero que carece de intenciones reales de negociar la paz. Fue la Casa Blanca quien propuso la cumbre hace sólo una semana, pero no hay indicios de que Putin esté dispuesto a ceder en sus demandas, que se resumen en el reconocimiento de los territorios ocupados por Rusia, la no adhesión de Ucrania a la OTAN, la limitación de su ejército y el levantamiento de las sanciones. Otro de los problemas es que la idea que Trump se ha hecho sobre la guerra de Ucrania está muy influenciada por figuras pro Putin del movimiento MAGA como Tucker Carlson. Eso en origen le llevó a ver en Putin a alguien interesado en la paz, mientras veía a Zelenski como un obstáculo. Aunque los hechos han matizado esta primera visión del conflicto, Trump sigue mostrando cierta simpatía hacia Putin, lo que provoca confusión sobre los términos de un posible acuerdo. Ha mencionado un intercambio de territorios, pero esto es inviable, ya que Rusia ocupa un 20% de Ucrania, mientras que Ucrania no controla nada de territorio ruso. Por lo demás, la cumbre parece improvisada y mal preparada, en parte por la participación de Steve Witkoff, un abogado inmobiliario sin experiencia diplomática, designado por Trump como enviado especial para Oriente Medio y ahora reconvertido en persona de contacto para el Kremlin. Witkoff, amigo personal de Trump, ha recibido muchas críticas por su incapacidad y por repetir el discurso del Kremlin. Keith Kellogg, el enviado especial para Ucrania, un diplomático con experiencia, ha sido completamente marginado, lo que está debilitando la posición negociadora de Estados Unidos. La elección de Alaska como sede, un antiguo territorio ruso, para Rusia es todo un detalle y la prensa del régimen celebra la cumbre como el reconocimiento del estatus de Rusia como gran potencia. Trump está en cierto modo atrapado. Prometió en campaña acabar con la guerra en 24 horas, lleva ya siete meses en el poder y la guerra sigue su curso. La cumbre, que es la primera visita de Putin a Estados Unidos desde 2015, es arriesgada para Trump. Los líderes europeos, preocupados por un acuerdo malo y precipitado, tratan de que cualquier negociación priorice un alto el fuego antes de discutir cesiones territoriales. Quieren también garantías de seguridad para Ucrania y una postura firme contra el Kremlin. Pero el historial de Trump en las cumbres no es muy esperanzador, menos aún con Putin, un consumado manipulador que puede poner todo a su favor en muy poco tiempo.

Le 17 octobre 1963, les Services secrets français, sous la gouvernance du Général De Gaulle, sont stupéfaits d'apprendre la démission d'un de leurs hommes. Depuis 13 ans, Philippe Thyraud de Vosjoli jouait un rôle capital au sein du SDECE, le Service de Documentation Extérieure et de Contre-espionnage, l'ancêtre de la DGSE. Officiellement sous les ordres des ambassadeurs français à Washington, Philippe Vosjoli était en mission aux Etats Unis. Promu chef de poste du SDECE de l'autre côté de l'Atlantique, il devait constituer un réseau d'espionnage français sur le territoire américain, contribuer à démasquer les agents du KGB, fournir des informations devant permettre à la France de gérer au mieux cette période de guerre froide entre le bloc de l'Est et les pays occidentaux. La France et les Etats-Unis avaient beau être alliés, ils n'en restaient pas moins rivaux dans la course à l'armement, et souverains et complémentaires dans leur recherche de renseignements.

Charles de Gaulle is one of the greatest figures of twentieth century history. If Sir Winston Churchill was (in the words of Harold Macmillan) the "greatest Englishman In history", then Charles de Gaulle was without a doubt, the greatest Frenchman since Napoleon Bonaparte. Why so? In the early summer of 1940, when France was overrun by German troops, one junior general who had fought in the trenches in Verdun refused to accept defeat. He fled to London, where he took to the radio to address his compatriots back home. “Whatever happens,” he said, “the flame of French resistance must not be extinguished and will not be extinguished.” At that moment, Charles de Gaulle entered history. For the rest of the war, de Gaulle insisted he and his Free French movement were the true embodiment of France. Through sheer force of his personality and the grandeur of his vision of France, he inspired French men and women to risk their lives to resist the Nazi occupation. Usually proud and aloof, but almost always confident in his own leadership, he quarreled violently with Churchill, Roosevelt and many of his own countrymen. Yet they knew they would need his help to rebuild a shattered France. Thanks to de Gaulle, France was recognized as one of the victorious Allies when Germany was finally defeated. Then, as President of the Fifth Republic, he brought France back from the brink of a civil war over the war in Algeria. And, made the difficult decision to end the self-same war. Thereafter he challenged American hegemony, took France out of NATO, and twice vetoed British entry into the European Community in his pursuit of what he called “a certain idea of France.” Julian Jackson, Professor of History at Queen Mary College, University of London, past winner of the Wolfson History Prize and the winner in 2018 of the Paris Book Award for his book on De Gaulle--De Gaulle (Harvard University Press, 2018)--has written a magnificent biography, the first major reconsideration in over twenty years. Drawing on the extensive resources of the recently opened de Gaulle archives, Jackson reveals the conservative roots of de Gaulle's intellectual formation and upbringing, sheds new light on his relationship with Churchill, and shows how de Gaulle confronted riots at home and violent independence movements abroad from the Middle East to Vietnam. No previous biography has so vividly depicted this towering figure whose legacy remains evident in present-day France. In short Professor Jackson has written a superb book, which in every way possible is a glittering ornament in the biographical art. Charles Coutinho holds a doctorate in history from New York University. Where he studied with Tony Judt, Stewart Stehlin and McGeorge Bundy. His Ph. D. dissertation was on Anglo-American relations in the run-up to the Suez Crisis of 1956. His area of specialization is 19th and 20th-century European, American diplomatic and political history.

Notre podcast de ce jour est – on ne peut plus d'actualité – avec l'annonce d'une possible suppression du 8 mai faite par le Premier ministre François Bayrou le 15 juillet dernier. Qu'elle soit effectivement mise en œuvre ou non, cette annonce ne manque pas de raviver le débat sur la place de la Seconde guerre mondiale et de son souvenir dans notre société. En effet, le 12 octobre 2021, décédait Henri Germain, dernier compagnon de l'Ordre de la Libération. Conformément à la règle éditée par le général De Gaulle, il fut inhumé au Mont Valérien. Ce symbole voulait signifier qu'une page se tournait dans le rapport de notre pays à cette période de notre histoire. De même, les célébrations du 80ème anniversaire du débarquement en Normandie l'an dernier ont mis en scène des héros centenaires, pour la plupart en fauteuil roulant. Moins d'1% des vétérans du Débarquement sont encore en vie. Et les commémorations du 6 juin se dérouleront bientôt sans eux alors qu'ils sont aujourd'hui au centre de ces cérémonies. Quelques semaines après, ce 6 juin 2024, le jury du grand oral de l'ENM donnait aux candidats du grand oral, le sujet suivant : « Après le décès des derniers survivants, faudra-t-il cesser de fêter la Libération ? ». Je ne vous cache pas que cette question m'avait particulièrement interpelé dès l'an dernier à Bordeaux… Pour traiter ce sujet que je trouve difficile, vous l'avez compris, je reçois Philippe Mazet, intervenant de culture générale au sein de la Prépa ISP.

durée : 00:58:38 - Les Grandes Traversées - Winston Churchill occupe une place centrale dans l'imaginaire britannique. Symbole de résistance pour certains, figure controversée pour d'autres, son image évolue au rythme des débats mémoriels et des mutations de la société britannique contemporaine. Des décennies après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l'ancien Premier ministre britannique demeure une figure à la fois complexe et fascinante. Son portrait se dessine en nuances : chef de guerre visionnaire, homme ancré dans le XIXe siècle, mythe vivant, voire personnage de roman. Un hommage national devenu universel L'émission s'ouvre sur la solennité de la mémoire française : Winston Churchill y est salué comme un artisan majeur de la libération de la France et de l'Europe. À travers une anecdote touchante, "un télégramme signé Churchill reçu dans un village français en 1949". Le récit montre combien son nom résonne avec un prestige presque sacré. Ce souvenir personnel devient le symbole d'un hommage collectif qui traverse les générations. Un fait troublant est évoqué : certains jeunes doutent de l'existence réelle de ce dernier. Ce décalage générationnel souligne le glissement de l'homme vers la légende. Il devient une figure héroïque, incarnation de la résistance, de l'unité alliée et du soutien à Charles De Gaulle. Cette aura quasi mythologique brouille la frontière entre l'histoire et la fiction, transformant Churchill en icône culturelle presque détachée du réel. "Churchill est à la fois un mythe national et une figure profondément clivante" Winston Churchill, héros incontestable de 1940, est aussi un homme de paradoxes. Visionnaire durant la guerre, il reste profondément marqué par le colonialisme et une nostalgie de l'Empire britannique. Pourtant, il initie des réformes sociales majeures : journée de huit heures, salaire minimum et allocations chômage. Conservateur aux idées tranchées, il est aussi un modernisateur pragmatique. Son portrait historique est tout sauf lisse : c'est celui d'un homme tiraillé entre le XIXe et le XXe siècle. Le philosophe Jean-Claude Monod le souligne : "Churchill est à la fois un mythe national et une figure profondément clivante". Au fil des interventions, se dessine un Churchill plus humain, parfois fantasque. Son élégance étudiée, ses fameux cigares — fumés jusqu'à sept par jour — et son perroquet au langage fleuri sont autant d'éléments qui participent à la construction d'un personnage haut en couleur. Ces détails révèlent un homme profondément attaché aux rituels et à une certaine forme d'aristocratie britannique. Cette dimension intime le rend paradoxalement plus proche, plus accessible. Churchill, vu depuis la France : une mémoire active Si Churchill reste une icône nationale au Royaume-Uni, il semble susciter un intérêt tout particulier en France. À Londres, la bibliothèque de l'Institut français accorde une place plus grande à De Gaulle, mais les Français, eux, continuent de s'interroger avec admiration sur Churchill. Contrairement au général français statufié, Churchill demeure un personnage “vivant” : imparfait, vibrant, incarnant une certaine idée de l'Angleterre.

80 ans après la libération de la France, nous revisitons le procès historique du Maréchal Pétain lors de l'été 1945. « C'est un vrai procès, avec un vrai débat », déclare l'historien Julian Jackson dans les lieux même où il s'est déroulé, au sein du Palais de justice de Paris, sur l'île de la Cité. Julian Jackson est spécialiste de l'histoire de France au XXème siècle et il nous propose de revivre le procès de l'ancien chef du gouvernement de Vichy, une expérience inédite enregistrée par RFI et partagée avec notre invité Denis Salas, président de l'Association française de l'Histoire de la justice et ancien juge. Revenons justement à l'Occupation de la France par les nazis et à cette photographie qui a tellement choqué les Français : le Maréchal Pétain, héros de la Première guerre mondiale, serrant la main de Hitler, le 24 Octobre 1940. Une photo symbole de la collaboration. C'est à la radio que le Maréchal Pétain explique alors son choix. « Français j'ai rencontré le Chancelier du Reich. Cette première rencontre entre le vainqueur et le vaincu marque le premier redressement de notre pays. C'est dans l'honneur et pour maintenir l'unité française que j'entre aujourd'hui dans la voie de la collaboration. (…) L'armistice au demeurant n'est pas la paix (…) la France est tenue par des obligations nombreuses vis-à-vis du vainqueur, du moins reste-t-elle souveraine. Cette politique est la mienne, mes ministres ne sont responsables que devant moi. C'est moi seul que l'Histoire jugera. » C'est également à la radio que Charles de Gaulle, Chef de la France libre a fait connaitre son choix. « Un jour, la France libérée punira les responsables de ces désastres et les artisans de sa servitude. » Comme l'avait déclaré le Général De Gaulle en 1940, il s'agit en 1945 de punir Pétain mais aussi de le juger. Le Maréchal Pétain s'est rendu à la France depuis la Suisse, fin Avril 1945 et que c'est en prison à Montrouge dans le sud de Paris, qu'il attend son procès. Un procès qui a lieu au sein de la première Chambre d'appel de la Cour de Paris du 23 juillet au 15 Août 1945. Et c'est dans cette même salle que Julian Jackson nous raconte les trois semaines du procès. Si la première semaine est marquée par le silence de Pétain, le grand évènement de la deuxième semaine, c'est l'arrivée de Pierre Laval. Joseph Kessel écrit sur « sa laideur fascinante, avec ses énormes oreilles et ses yeux reptiliens », il serait le mauvais génie de Pétain. Si l'accusation réclame la peine de mort, l'avocat principal Fernand Payen joue la carte de la sénilité tandis que le jeune et brillant Jacques Isorni, partage les valeurs de son client et met en scène une défense de rupture en assumant la collaboration de Vichy. Tous les protagonistes sont conscients que le verdict de la peine de mort sera commué en prison à vie. Mais ce procès pour l'Histoire écrit-il toute l'histoire de la collaboration de Vichy avec les nazis ? « Certainement pas, nous dit Denis Salas, il y a un moment de justice avec ce procès de 45, qui a été prolongé et complété par la suite par d'autres moments de justice (Entre 1987 et 1998, la justice française a jugé Klaus Barbie, Paul Touvier et Maurice Papon) qui ont prouvé la participation active et déterminante du régime de Vichy à la déportation des juifs de France.

La Seconde Guerre Mondiale fut un véritable nid d'espions, si bien qu'il était parfois difficile de savoir qui jouait sur plusieurs tableaux... Cette semaine, Secrets d'Agents vous propose de redécouvrir les histoires de trois agents redoutables mais controversésIl n'a que 29 ans, aucune compétence dans le renseignement militaire, et pourtant, le colonel Passy, André Dewavrin de son vrai nom, parvient à mettre sur pied l'une des organisations françaises les plus importantes de la Seconde Guerre mondiale ; le Bureau central de renseignements et d'action, BCRA. Et ce, sans moyen matériel, ni technique. Entre 1940 et 1944, celui en qui le Général de Gaulle avait placé beaucoup d'espoir, s'est montré à la hauteur de la tâche. Son histoire est celle d'un homme à la fois audacieux et complexe, dont l'intelligence et la détermination ont donné une grande impulsion à la Résistance française.

“Je vous ai compris” : ces mots célèbres, prononcés par Charles de Gaulle le 4 juin 1958 à Alger, en pleine guerre dont on ne dit alors pas le nom, résument peut-être l'attitude de l'homme du 18 juin face aux événements qui conduiront à l'indépendance de l'Algérie, proclamée en 1962. De Gaulle a-t-il compris ce qui se jouait, dès les années 1940, de l'autre côté de la Méditerranée ? On verra aujourd'hui qu'il s'est souvent montré ambigu, voire contradictoire sur ces questions que Virginie Girod évoque avec Pierre Manenti, historien du gaullisme et de la Cinquième République.Distribué par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

Tout au long de sa vie, de Gaulle entretient une relation conflictuelle avec les États-Unis d'Amérique. Kennedy est peut-être le seul président américain qu'il aura su apprécier.

4/8: The Light of Battle: Eisenhower, D-Day, and the Birth of the American Superpower by  Michel Paradis  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Light-Battle-Eisenhower-American-Superpower/dp/0358682371/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr= On June 6, 1944, General Dwight Eisenhower addressed the thousands of American troops preparing to invade Normandy, exhorting them to embrace the “Great Crusade” they faced. Then, in a fleeting moment alone, he drafted a resignation letter in case the invasion failed. In The Light of Battle, Michel Paradis, acclaimed author of Last Mission to Tokyo, paints a vivid portrait of Dwight Eisenhower as he learns to navigate the crosscurrents of diplomacy, politics, strategy, family, and fame with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance. In a world of giants—Churchill, Roosevelt, De Gaulle, Marshall, MacArthur—it was a barefoot boy from Abilene, Kansas, who would master the art of power and become a modern-day George Washington. Drawing upon meticulous research and a voluminous body of newly discovered records, letters, diaries, and firsthand accounts from three continents, Paradis brings Eisenhower to life, as a complicated man who craved simplicity, a genial cipher whose smile was a lethal political weapon. With a page-turning pace and an eye for the overlooked, Paradis interweaves the grand arc of history with more human concerns, bringing readers into the private moments that led to Eisenhower's most pivotal decisions. By deftly integrating the personal and the political, he reveals how Eisenhower's rise both reflected and was integral to America's rise as a global superpower. An unflinching look at how character is forged, and leadership is learned, The Light of Battle breathes new life into the man who made “the leader of the free world” the mantle of the American presidency. 1945 IKE ZHUKOV

Stéphane Bern raconte un événement qui a fait date dans l'histoire politique de la France : la démission du président Charles de Gaulle, premier occupant de l'Élysée sous la Vème République, et le dernier en date à l'avoir quitté de son propre chef, à la suite d'un référendum historique et au crépuscule d'un long règne républicain, pour entrer pour toujours dans la légende… Dans quel contexte Charles de Gaulle a-t-il démissionné ? Quelles ont été les conséquences politiques de sa décision ? 55 ans après sa mort, que symbolise-t-il encore en France ?
