As to what it all means for the next French elections, I don’t know. But this book provides part of
the backdrop, economic and political. It should make interesting reading for anyone involved in
that campaign. Whilst clearly still of the view Sarkozy was and is the right choice for France,
(though the polls at the time of writing indicate he is in a minority) he throws out ideas and
challenges for right and left alike. As traditional lines are drawn, careful reading might provoke
candidates and parties to see that they should always be looking to the next new ideas, not merely
repackaging the last new, let alone the old.
