On France's permacrisis. [Patreon Exclusive] French sociologist Nathan Sperber talks to George and Alex about his new essay in the New Left Review, "The French Crisis: Organic or Conjunctural". We catch up with what has happened in France since Macron gambled and called impromptu elections in the summer. We discuss: Why does France always seem to be more in crisis than its neighbours? How has France ended up with hollow "leaderist" parties? Is Macron a true neoliberal or a reactive emergency politician? Did the left-wing France Insoumise miss its shot? How inevitable is a Le Pen government, and will it be co-opted by the French bureaucracy? What's the difference between an organic and a conjunctural crisis – and which one is France in?

In Amerika zet een miljardenplan kwaad bloed in Europa. Met ruim 370 miljard dollar wil president Biden de Amerikaanse economie aanwakkeren, maar volgens de Europeanen zou dat ten koste gaan van Europese bedrijven, die niet in aanmerking zouden komen voor die subsidies. Achter de schermen zou de EU zelfs overwegen om naar de WTO te stappen. Dreigt er een handelsoorlog, juist nu Europa en de VS elkaar misschien wel het hardst nodig hebben? We bespreken het met oud-correspondent Casper Thomas. Fragmenten uit aflevering: Tickets voor onze eindejaarsshow op 15 december zijn hier te krijgen!

President Emmanuel Macron, now in his second term, is among the strongest voices campaigning for a European Union taking its destiny in its own hands. In Macron's words, the E.U. needs "strategic autonomy." This concept of sovereignty encompasses everything from a common budget and spending more on defense, to stronger supervision of the digital market and much more. How much is Macron's progress toward these goals? Is he the de facto leader of the E.U. after German Chancellor Angela Merkel's retirement? Is Macron steering the European Union in a French direction? Host Liu Kun is joined by Christian Lequesne, Professor of European Politics at Sciences Po; Dr. Susan Collard, Senior Lecturer in French Politics & Contemporary European Studies at the University of Sussex; Clifford Kiracofe, Washington-based author and former Senior Professional Staff Member of the U.S. Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.

In just over six weeks, voters in France will go to the polls in the first round of the 2022 presidential election, in which President Emmanuel Macron's toughest competition for re-election comes from the right. This week, the New Statesman's Europe correspondent, Ido Vock, examines the state of the French right wing. He, along with special guests Agnès Poirier, a journalist and the author of Left Bank: Art, Passion, and the Rebirth of Paris, and Catherine Fieschi, the director of Counterpoint, looks at the likely battle for second place between the Republican candidate Valérie Pécresse and her rivals on the far right, Marine Le Pen and Éric Zemmour. Is Macron's domination of the political centre forcing his rivals to take more extreme positions? Podcast listeners can get a special discount on subscriptions to the New Statesman.

The 'gilets jaunes' protests have shocked France, expressing a profound exasperation and anger that goes much deeper than frustration at a fuel tax. This is clearly a movement from below, of the people. But it is leaderless and thus far rejects affiliation with political parties. How far can it go? Is Macron's government at risk? This isn't the 'start-up nation' he dreamed of... Readings: We're With The Rebels, by Aurélie Dianara (Jacobin)
Is Macron the European Messias, or is nobody ready to give in to his whims?At home, the French President was not really bothered by all the strikes and protests. Is anyone actually working in France these days? We take a closer look at the very controversial reforms underway this springWith sunny days on the horizon, there is a new ice cream flavour – très french – if you dare…And Maud Descamps is here to explain to us a fresh french word of the week!Recorded in Paris, April 20, 2018
This week we try to work out who's up and who's down in the great game of European politics. Has May won anything significant in the Brexit deal? Is Merkel any nearer to forming a government? Is Macron the big winner from recent events? Plus we ask what prospect of Martin Schulz getting his United States of Europe, and what chance now of Jeremy Corbyn making it to No 10. With Helen Thompson, Chris Brooke and Chris Bickerton. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Is Trump beyond parody? We talk to Rory Bremner about what it's like trying to do political comedy when politics seems to have lost its moorings. Plus Rory gives us his Trump (which we think it better than Baldwin's). We also catch up with the latest twists and turns in the French presidential election. Is Macron now the favourite? Can Fillon recover? And have we reach peak Putin panic, or is it only just beginning? With Helen, Chris Bickerton and Hugo Drochon. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
