Murray, R.
(2012).
In 2012 France has seen gains for the Front National, success for François Hollande and electoral defeat and infighting for the UMP.
Rainbow Murray reviews an important year in French politics, one which has seen the left return to power for the first time in a decade, as well as gains for the far-right. 2012 has also been a difficult year for the centre-right in France, with the defeat of President Nicolas Sarkozy in the presidential election, followed by infighting over who will succeed him in the leadership of the UMP.
