The revocation of the Edict of Nantes led more than 200,000 Huguenots to flee France after 1685. Many settled close to the country's frontiers, where their leaders published apologetic texts arguing for their right to return to France and be recognized as French citizens. By framing their refugee experiences intentionally, even using the term "refugee" to describe their diaspora, Huguenots profoundly influenced Enlightenment debates on citizenship and religious tolerance. Write to Return: Huguenot Refugees on the Frontiers of the French Enlightenment (McGill-Queen's, 2024) is a cultural history of these Huguenot apologetics in which Bryan Banks examines the work of four authors: Pierre Jurieu, Pierre Bayle, Antoine Court, and Jean-Paul Rabaut Saint-Étienne. Each author advanced his arguments using key ideas of the Enlightenment, appealing to reason to argue for freedom of conscience all while appealing to emotion in his descriptions of Huguenot victimhood. The authors' campaign succeeded. In 1789, France's revolutionary National Assembly granted repatriation to all expelled Huguenots, offering them citizenship regardless of place of birth or baptism, and even permitting them to reclaim ancestral lands. International refugees played an overlooked role in shaping discourse around the nation and nationalism in the eighteenth century. Write to Return shows how early modern refugees could advocate for their interests, build international networks, and even craft a new collective identity. By presenting themselves as loyal citizens of France, Huguenots were at the forefront of constructing a French national identity. Learn more about your ad choices.

The One Stop Border Post Bill is being debated in the National Assembly with lawmakers discussing its potential to improve border management. The bill aims to make it easier for people and goods to move legally across borders while cracking down on illegal activity. The bill's proponents argue it could boost trade, ease congestion and enhance South Africa's competitiveness in the region. However, concerns were raised about the bill's potential impact on security and human dignity at borders. Elvis Presslin spoke to Makashule Gana, Rise Mzansi Chief Organizer and National Assembly Caucus Whip, who says SA's immigration problem is the result of state inaction and poor cooperation with our neighbours

Parliament's ad hoc committee will engage with the relevant authorities on the process to get the remanded detainee, Vusimuzi "Cat" Matlala to appear before it, in person. The committee was established by a motion of the National Assembly, following allegations of criminal infiltration, corruption and political interefence in the justice system. These alllegations were made by KZN Police Commissioner, Lt-General Nhanhla Mkhwanazi, in July this year. Among others, Mkhwanazi alleged that the now placed on special leave Police minister, Senzo Mchunu associated with individuals suspected to have links with drug cartels, such as Matlala. It would be a first in the history for Parliament, to have an awaiting trial prisoner, appear before it. Zalene Merrington reports

Can the Centre hold in France?Nick Cohen discusses the dire state of French politics with journalist, author & academic Agnès Poirier. They discuss the chaos of politics in France over the last years which has seen 4 prime ministers come and go in barely a year. Extremists on the far right and far left are becoming ever more dominant - their voices ever more shrill.In 2017, Emmanuelle Macron became the youngest man since Napoloeon to head the French state and to become President of France, voted in off the back of his own centrist En Marche movement. In 18 months' time, Macron's second term and presidential career come to an end. And there are growing fears about what next presidential elections of May 2027 could herald a major extremist upset, as disappointed French political opinion seems to rush to the extremes of either the hard left firebrand Jean-Luc Mélenchon - defacto leader of La France Insoumise - or Marine Le Pen and the far right Le Rassemblement National (The National Ralley, formerly the National Front).Agnès Poirier explains the disillusionment and the current political landscape divided among Islamified left, failed Macron-centered centre, and radical right factions. Agnès and Nick explore Macron's challenges in maintaining power despite a lack of majority support, the rise of extreme parties, and the shifting dynamics within the French socialist movement. The discussion concludes with an examination of France's welfare system, the transformation of the National Rally under Marine Le Pen, and concerns about the potential rise of far-right leaders in future elections.French are more scared of hard left that far rightWhat if the Centre continues to collpase and the French are left with a choice between extreme right and left? Agnes Poirier says people are more concerned and worried about Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the left than the far right of Marine Le Pen, saying, "They [the Left] they go to the National Assembly dressed in t-shirts, um, or in football, shirts; they insult each other. They just want insurrection. They look dangerous. They speak dangerous, and they don't care. Whereas Marine Le Pen party is much more clever in the way they present themselves. They don't insult people. They're not loud; they put on a suit, and so at least on the surface, they are not scaring people and, and it works. It does work. Um, you'd rather have somebody who's not insulting you or shouting at you the way they do with their hard left." Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

pWotD Episode 3083: María Corina Machado Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 681,717 views on Friday, 10 October 2025 our article of the day is María Corina Machado.María Corina Machado Parisca (born 7 October 1967) is a Venezuelan politician and activist. A prominent opposition leader to the goverments of Hugo Chávez and Nicolás Maduro, she served as a member of the National Assembly from 2011 to 2014, and has run as a candidate in presidential elections while experiencing repression from the Maduro regime. She is considered a liberal conservative politician. An industrial engineer with a master's degree in finance, Machado began her political career as a founder of the vote-monitoring organization Súmate. She is the National Coordinator of the political party Vente Venezuela and ran in the 2012 opposition presidential primary, which she lost to Henrique Capriles. During the 2014 Venezuelan protests, she played a leading role in organizing demonstrations against Maduro's government.In 2023, Machado won the opposition primary to become the unity candidate for the 2024 presidential election. The Venezuelan government subsequently barred her from running in the election. She named Corina Yoris as a replacement candidate, who was later replaced by Edmundo González Urrutia. The opposition presented vote tallies, claiming that González Urritia won the election in a landslide, while the Maduro government claimed victory without presenting any evidence. Shortly after the 28 July election, Machado announced that she had gone into hiding, citing fears for her life and freedom under the authoritarian Maduro regime. Machado has received international recognition for her activism. In 2025, she was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize "for her tireless work promoting democratic rights for the people of Venezuela and for her struggle to achieve a just and peaceful transition from dictatorship to democracy". Machado was also named one of BBC's 100 Women in 2018, and listed among Time magazine's 100 most influential people in 2025. In 2024, Machado received the Václav Havel Human Rights Prize and, with Edmundo González, the Sakharov Prize for representing Venezuelans fighting for democracy.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:36 UTC on Saturday, 11 October 2025.For the full current version of the article, see María Corina Machado on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Raveena.
On today's podcast: 1) Israel and Hamas have reached a deal for the release of all hostages held by the militant group in Gaza, a major step toward ending a two-year war that’s devastated the Palestinian territory and triggered multiple conflicts in the Middle East as well as protests across the world. The agreement was reached early on Thursday after several days of indirect negotiations between the warring sides in the Egyptian resort of Sharm El-Sheikh. The ongoing talks were brokered by the US, Egypt, Qatar and Turkey and based on a plan unveiled by President Trump last week. 2) French President Emmanuel Macron said he’ll name a new prime minister by Friday evening, having for the time being avoided the need to call a snap election that would have deepened the political chaos in France. Outgoing Premier Sebastien Lecornu, who was tasked by Macron on Monday to negotiate with the political groups in the National Assembly, said sufficient progress had been made to allow work to begin on forming a new cabinet. 3) China has unveiled broad new curbs on its rare earth exports, as Beijing moves to shore up its trade war leverage ahead of a high-stakes meeting this month between Donald Trump and Xi Jinping. Overseas exporters of items that use even traces of certain rare earths sourced from China will now need an export license, the Ministry of Commerce said in a statement Thursday, citing national security grounds. Certain equipment and engineering technology will also be subject to controls, according to a separate release.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A series of adverse legal findings has put both Julius Malema's seat in Parliament and his position on the Judicial Services Commission (JSC) in jeopardy. Should he be served a severe sentence for his firearm offences, he will be disqualified from being a member of the National Assembly. Meanwhile, Chris Oxtoby of Freedom Under Law, tells Chris Steyn why the Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) leader's position on the JSC has become “untenable”. He stresses that Parliament now has enough grounds to act. He further gives the inside story of two days of JSC hearings - from which Malema was absent in order to attend the Ad Hoc Committee hearings. Oxtoby says despite there being some “credible” candidates to fill a Supreme Court of Appeal vacancy, none were able to get enough votes. He describes Freedom Under Law's ongoing litigation with the JSC over its voting process, and questions “whether the process that we don't see after the interviews, the deliberations and the voting behind closed doors, whether that is properly fit for purpose if it's not being able to deliver us candidates…”
French Prime Minister Lecornu resigned, but will work for 48 hours—President Macron wants Lecornu to find a fiscal solution that would command National Assembly support. Despite obvious parallels, this is not the same as the UK's Truss debacle. The French bond market remains orderly. French assets will command a risk premium, as investors wait to see whether a new government or new elections are the outcome.
French politics has been in disarray since President Emmanuel Macron called an early legislative election last year, producing a deeply fragmented National Assembly. Now, with Prime Minister Sébastien Lecornu resigning after less than a month in the job, there are fears the French parliament has plunged into political deadlock.
France is farewelling its fifth Prime Minister in under two years as it enters a fresh political crisis. The country's new Prime Minister Sebastien Lecornu has resigned just hours after appointing his new cabinet. His ministerial line-up has been heavily criticised by parties in the National Assembly. Newstalk ZB's Paris correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking Lecornu believed negotiations between other parties had stalled. She says he believed other parties just wanted to push their own programme on to the government, without making any compromises. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The sun is setting on the second Valerie Plante/Projet Montreal term in office, but that hasn’t stopped the party from spending on what some are calling frivolous travel.

In June 2024 French President Emmanuel Macron took a political gamble – and lost heavily.Hoping to strengthen his centrist alliance he dissolved the National Assembly triggering an election. The result has been chaos – a legislature with no dominant political bloc in power and leading this week to France naming its fourth prime minister in 12 months and riots on the streets of Paris.At the centre of the political chaos is the threat of austerity budgets. France is deep in debt and a succession of Macron-appointment prime ministers have proposed budgets with tax hikes and deep cuts.On Monday, prime minister François Bayrou was ousted by a decisive vote after he proposed a tough budget. By Wednesday, Macron had appointed a replacement, Sébastien Lecornu.The problem for the next government, Lecornu's, is that a budget still needs to be passed and securing the backing of a very divided parliament will be difficult.The world's stage does see not much of French prime ministers because the president, Macron, holds substantial powers over foreign policy and European affairs.So does this open the door to a snap election? And how damaging is this for Macron that his own country is in chaos while he bestrides the stage, positioning himself as a powerful European leader.Naomi O'Leary, Irish Times European correspondent, explains a bleak week in French politics.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by John Casey. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

France has been plunged into a fresh political crisis, with MPs voting to oust the prime minister. The BBC reports Francois Bayrou called the surprise vote of confidence on himself after huge opposition to his budget plans. France's National Assembly voted by 364 votes to 194 to eject him from office, and bring down his minority government. President Emmanuel Macron now faces a choice between calling a snap election or picking a fifth prime minister in less than two years. France Correspondent Catherine Field told Mike Hosking that part of the problem was Bayrou's attitude. She says he seemed to antagonise everyone he spoke to, and he didn't try to negotiate or seek coalitions. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
How will 'Yellow Envelope' bill reshape Korea's labor landscape?진행자: 최정윤, Tannith Kriel기사 요약: 20년 만에 통과된 '노란봉투법', 어떤 내용이며 한국의 노동 지형에 어떤 변화를 가져올까?[1] South Korea's labor relations are set for a major shift. On Aug. 24, South Korea's National Assembly passed a landmark amendment to the Trade Union and Labor Relations Adjustment Act, better known as the "Yellow Envelope" bill.-shift: 변화-landmark: 획기적인, 중요한 사건, 발견-amendment: 법의 개정, 수정[2] With 183 lawmakers voting in favor and only three against, the legislation marks the culmination of a 20-year demand from the labor movement to strengthen the constitutional right to organize, bargain and strike.-culmination: (오랫동안 계속된 일의) 정점-bargain: 협상하다-strike: 파업하다 (치다, 때리다)[3] Set to take effect in March 2026 after a six-month grace period, the amendment is expected to reshape labor relations. Experts say its impact lies not in strengthening unions that already wield influence, but in addressing Korea's deeply segmented labor market.-wield: (권력, 권위 등을) 행사하다-segmented: 분할된, 나뉘어진[4] “This law is not mainly about empowering workers in large firms who already enjoy strong protections,” said Lee Byoung-hoon, professor emeritus of sociology at Chung-Ang University. “The real purpose is to support those in the secondary or marginalized labor market — subcontracted, non-regular and platform workers — who have long been outside the reach of effective labor rights.”-marginalized: 소외된기사 원문: https://m.koreaherald.com/article/10564042
