At its inception, a time of great political upheaval in France, it was uncertain whether the new regime would last five years, let alone fifty. The longevity of the regime is due in part to its flexibility and adaptability, which is a theme explored both below and in all of the contributions to this special issue.

  • Political System of France the Fifth Republic • the Fifth Republic Was
    Political System of France The Fifth Republic • The fifth republic was established in 1958, and was largely the work of General de Gaulle - its first president, and Michel Debré his prime minister. It has been amended 17 times. Though the French constitution is parliamentary, it gives relatively extensive powers to the executive (President and Ministers) compared to other western democracies. • A popular referendum approved the constitution of the French Fifth Republic in 1958, greatly strengthening the authority of the presidency and the executive with respect to Parliament. • The constitution does not contain a bill of rights in itself, but its preamble mentions that France should follow the principles of the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen, as well as those of the preamble to the constitution of the Fourth Republic. • This has been judged to imply that the principles laid forth in those texts have constitutional value, and that legislation infringing on those principles should be found unconstitutional if a recourse is filed before the Constitutional Council. The executive branch • The head of state and head of the executive is the President, elected by universal suffrage. • France has a semi-presidential system of government, with both a President and a Prime Minister. • The Prime Minister is responsible to the French Parliament. • A presidential candidate is required to obtain a nationwide majority of non- blank votes at either the first or second round of balloting, which implies that the President is somewhat supported by at least half of the voting population. • The President of France, as head of state and head of the executive, thus carries more power than leaders of most other European countries, where the two functions are separate (for example in the UK, the Monarch and the Prime minister, in Germany the President and the Chancellor.) • Since May 2017, France's president is Emmanuel Macron, who was elected to the post at age 39, the youngest French leader since Napoleon.

  • LETTER to G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS
    LETTER TO G20, IMF, WORLD BANK, REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT BANKS and NATIONAL GOVERNMENTS We write to call for urgent action to address the global education emergency triggered by Covid-19. With over 1 billion children still out of school because of the lockdown, there is now a real and present danger that the public health crisis will create a COVID generation who lose out on schooling and whose opportunities are permanently damaged. While the more fortunate have had access to alternatives, the world’s poorest children have been locked out of learning, denied internet access, and with the loss of free school meals - once a lifeline for 300 million boys and girls – hunger has grown. An immediate concern, as we bring the lockdown to an end, is the fate of an estimated 30 million children who according to UNESCO may never return to school. For these, the world’s least advantaged children, education is often the only escape from poverty - a route that is in danger of closing. Many of these children are adolescent girls for whom being in school is the best defence against forced marriage and the best hope for a life of expanded opportunity. Many more are young children who risk being forced into exploitative and dangerous labour. And because education is linked to progress in virtually every area of human development – from child survival to maternal health, gender equality, job creation and inclusive economic growth – the education emergency will undermine the prospects for achieving all our 2030 Sustainable Development Goals and potentially set back progress on gender equity by years.

  • OGT #4: Government, Enlightenment, and Citizen Rights and Responsibilities
    OGT #4: Government, Enlightenment, and Citizen Rights and Responsibilities Types of Government 1. Types of government are determined by who’s in charge and what type of power rulers have/or rights citizens have 2. sovereign power: the right to rule 3. monarchy: ruler inherits power, usually a king or queen 4. absolute monarchy: power is inherited (passed down through family) claims power through divine right (chosen by God) ruler has all the power and people have no rights or freedoms (similar to a dictatorship except for how the ruler gains power) the people have no voice in selecting who rules not all rulers are capable rulers Ex, King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette (French Revolution) only exist today where governments have failed to check the of a ruling family 5. constitutional monarchy: power in inherited (passed down through family) Power is limited by a constitution or an elected legislature. People enjoy basic rights and a voice in government. Ex. United Kingdom—Queen Elizabeth II is a figurehead; the real government body is the Parliament headed by the Prime Minister. The Lower House of Parliament is elected by the people and the Prime Minister is chosen from Parliament. Other examples: the Netherlands, Kuwait, and Jordan 6. dictatorship: a single person or a small group (oligarchy) seize power (although later can be inherited) Ruler has unlimited power. Decision can be made quickly. Usually has backing of the military and uses threat of force to remain in control. The ruler makes the laws and runs the court system. No separation of powers or checks and balances; Dissenters (people who disagree) are eliminated with intimidation, arrest, or murder.

  • Bridging the Divide? an Assessment of Elections in Sri Lanka and the Palestinian Territories
    Bridging the Divide? An Assessment of Elections in Sri Lanka and the Palestinian Territories Authors Michael Balz, Morgan Courtney, Nathan Hodson, Lena Hull, Seth Lynn, Eric Melancon, Julia Morse, Bill Parsons, Arian Sharifi, Sehar Tariq Project Advisor Jeff Fischer January 2010 About the Woodrow Wilson School at Princeton University The Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs was founded at Princeton in 1930, created in the spirit of President Woodrow Wilson’s interest in preparing students for leadership in public and international affairs. The Woodrow Wilson School has celebrated over 75 years of preparing talented individuals for careers in the service of the nation and the world. Today, the School educates a wide range of students from the U.S. and around the world who seek to apply their knowledge and skills to the solution of vital public problems in both the domestic and international realms. About Graduate Policy Workshops Graduate Policy Workshops are a unique part of the curriculum of the School’s graduate program. Workshops provide students with an opportunity to use what they have learned from their first year in the program, their summer work, and their other experiences to analyze a complex and challenging policy issue. The workshops emphasize policy implementation, and it is this that distinguishes it from regular coursework. The goal of the workshops is not just to understand a policy issue, but to devise policy recommendations that are both creative and realistic, given the relevant institutional and political constraints. All views expressed in this publication are solely those of the authors. The authors take full responsibility for any errors or omissions in this report.
