Génération.s
Génération·s is a French political party created on 1 July 2017 by Benoît Hamon who, according to its founder, aims to "refound and gather the left" in France. Sometimes rendered Génération-s or Génération·s , it was formerly named Mouvement du 1er Juillet (1 July Movement), and has also been known by the short name M1717. Its foundation followed the sharp decline of the Socialist Party in the 2017 presidential election, in which Hamon was the Socialist nominee, and the legislative elections, in which he lost his seat as deputy. The movement presents itself as an initiative to assemble the forces of the left in France. The political ideologies it supports are European federalism, eco-socialism, and democratic socialism. History According to its founder Hamon, the movement is "a totally open initiative" that seeks to "go beyond the party framework" and "converge" with other political figures that share its values. At the time of its founding, he announced his goal t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

List Of Political Parties In France
This article contains a list of political parties in France. France has a multi-party political system: one in which the number of competing political parties is sufficiently large as to make it almost inevitable that in order to participate in the exercise of power any single party must be prepared to negotiate with one or more others with a view to forming electoral alliances and/or coalition agreements. The dominant French political parties are also characterised by a noticeable degree of intra-party factionalism, making each of them effectively a coalition in itself. Up until recently, the government of France had alternated between two rather stable coalitions: * on the centre-left, one led by the Socialist Party and with minor partners such as The Greens and the Radical Party of the Left. * on the centre-right, one led by The Republicans (and previously its predecessors, the Union for a Popular Movement, Rally for the Republic) and the Union of Democrats and Indepe ...
