The Presidential election, as one of the central events of the democratic process in France and the main organising principle of French politics since 1962, provides an opportunity to assess the development of the regime. More significantly, it allows us to assess modifications to the office of President and to French Presidentialism which are both reflected in and affected by the electoral campaign and the election themselves. This book provides such an assessment, with specific reference to the candidates, issues and events of the 1995 Presidential elections.
