The Scientific Advisory Board (COS) proposes the Founda- tion’s activities. Daniel Cohen is the Chairman of the COS, which has some 50 members–experts and academics from a variety of fields and political, trade union and business leaders from France and other European countries. The COS proposes activities for the coming year. It examines the documents drawn up by working groups. It is a forum for discussion and debate. The permanent staff is responsible for implementation. Gilles Finchelstein is the Director-General of the Foundation. A team of 15 full-time staff members, assisted by a network of 300 experts, coordinates all activities. It manages and organises the work of the Foundation, in conjunction with our partners. It man- ages publications, from design through circulation. Last but not least, it is responsible for conserving and promoting the Socialist archives in partnership with the OURS. JEAN JAURES FOUNDATION / PAGE 4 JEAN JAURES FOUNDATION / PAGE 5 The principal goal of the Jean Jaurès Foundation ACTION is to foster ongoing renewal of the political and intellectual debate. Activities and operation The Foundation is also committed to international action, with its support for democracy on the ground, and to history, with its Socialist archives. _Democracy engineering The 1990s witnessed a wave of democratisation: the fall of the Berlin Wall, the end of apartheid and the demise of the Latin American influencedictatorships. For 15 years, the Jean Jaurès Foundation focused its efforts on democracy engineering, carrying out 690 actions and missions in 113 countries. Working with its local partners, it contrib- uted to a number of successful democratic transitions by conduct- ing training courses in such practical areas as: organising free and transparent elections, promoting the involvement of young people and women in political life, organising a political party, administering a local community and protecting the role of minorities. In the age of globalisation, democratisation is probably no longer the main challenge for the Jean Jaurès Foundation. But the battle for democracy is obviously far from over. In many countries, democracy is even receding. In coming years, each specific situation will require specific action, and we must adapt our activities accordingly.

JEAN JAURES FOUNDATION / PAGE 6 JEAN JAURES FOUNDATION / PAGE 7 With the objective of encouraging research on the history of Socialism, the Foundation will continue to digitise documents to facilitate access. It will also continue to provide academics, scholars and students with a unified source of information by making the archives of the OURS and the Jean Jaurès Foun- dation available to them.

This chapter offers a reflection on national and transnational dynamics by means of a local case study. In this specific configuration of a local institutional context unfavourable to the contestation of gender equality policies, a collective will invest the urban space in a spectacular and sustainable way, forging links with European protests to show its opposition and try to put this cause on the agenda.

    25th Commemorations of the Genocide against the Tutsis: "Mr. President, it is time to make a statement of truth! " Mr. President, It has been 25 years since the genocide against the Tutsis has been perpetrated in Rwanda. Over the course of three months, more than one million people were exterminated by extremists coming together as the Hutu Power movement, with a massive participation of the population. The consequences of this genocide are still felt today. This past, particularly for France, does not pass. Since your election, you have sent signals of hope that the time has come to put an end to the French position characterized by silence and denial since the genocide took place. After 25 years, it is finally time to take the necessary steps in order to shed light on the truth and pursue justice. Mr. President, next April 7th your place is in Kigali, amongst the highest representatives of the international community. By the side of the survivors. France has cancelled its participation at the 20th commemoration of the genocide; your presence this year would repair this disgrace. What survivors, youth, French civil society, Rwanda, and Europe are expecting from you first and foremost is that truth be told. Even though genocide denial persists in its attempt to manipulate History, you must state the obvious : in 1994, in Rwanda, a genocide has been perpetrated against the Tutsi people. You must further explain the words spoken in Kigali in 2010 from your predecessor, former President of the French Republic Nicolas Sarkozy, who recognized that “errors of judgement and political errors have been made here and have produced absolutely dramatic consequences”.

  • Identifying the Critical Spaces of the 2012 Elections
    Notes 1 Introduction 1. Indeed, even without such confounding factors, a ‘pure’ bipartisan system would not be predictable any more than an imperfect, realistic one. Knowing the equilibrium number of parties in a system does not guarantee knowing who votes for them or why. Even under Downsian rationality, ideology for the two parties acts as a signpost, not a GPS. 2. Those more enthused by cycle race or chess analogies should refer to commentary on the 2012 elections on our blog: 500signatures.com. 2 Knowns and Unknowns: Identifying the Critical Spaces of the 2012 Elections 1. ‘Deux riches familles ont payé les vacances des Sarkozy’, Libération, 18 August 2007, http://www.liberation.fr/politiques/010119427-deux-riches- familles-ont-paye-les-vacances-des-sarkozy, accessed 4 February 2013. 2. ‘Quand le président cajole ses (généreux) donateurs’, Le Parisien, 9 December 2009, http://www.leparisien.fr/politique/quand-le-president-cajole-ses- genereux-donateurs-09-12-2009-737945.php, accessed 4 February 2013. 3. As we shall see in Chapter 8, perversely for the FN, low turnout – so often a bonus for far right parties – dampened their ability to play kingmaker in a large number of constituencies. 4. Drees (2012) Suivi barométrique de l’opinion des français sur la santé, la protection sociale, la précarité, la famille et la solidarité. January, 67 p. (http://www.drees. sante.gouv.fr/IMG/pdf/synthese2011_barometre_drees_bva.pdf). 5. We examine this further in Chapter 8. 6. This is revealed by the positive correlation that can be found between the FN vote and the subsequent rise in blank ballots (r = .62) across all metropolitan cantons (N =3, 883), which becomes non-significant for other candidates such as Bayrou or Mélenchon.
