	Walter Held: People's Front in France (1936)
		The Radical Socialist party proclaims itself the heir of the Great French Revolution, and so it is in the sense that it has always loyally served the class of the bourgeoisie and its state which emerged victoriously from this revolution.
		The French Radicals of today, on the other hand, who have everything in common with the liberals and nothing in common with the peasant-terroristic Social Revolutionists and who, in contrast to the latter, base themselves upon an agrarian revolution effected some 150 years ago, are the representatives of French colonial oppression.
		The recently held congress of the Radical party almost unanimously accepted the People’s Front.

		But, in fact, it's the charismatic but controversial Nicolas Sarkozy who heads Chirac's party, the centre-right Union pour un Mouvement Populaire or UMP.

	Radical Party (France) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Radical Party (Parti Radical or Républicains Radicaux et Radicaux-Socialistes, Radical Republicans and Radical Socialists), was a major French political party of the early to mid 20th century, originally considered radical due to its anti-clericalism.
		Radicalism was already a well-established movement in France before the Radical Party itself was established in 1901 in wake of the Dreyfus Affair.
		In the early 1970s, the party, under the leadership of Jean-Jacques Servan-Schreiber, again made tentative moves to the left, but stopped short of an alliance with Socialist François Mitterrand and his Communist allies, leading to a final split in 1972, when the remaining left-wing Radicals left the party, becoming eventually the Parti Radical de Gauche.

	France
		With "Radical" candidates on both sides of opposing alliances in all the parliamentary elections since 1967, the reality of the situation requires acknowledging the demise of the "old" Radical Party in 1967, although its passing was not certified until the split of 1972.
		In 1967, the party was reorganized under Georges Pompidou, de Gaulle's prime minister, as the Union of Democrats for the Fifth Republic (UDVe) to contest the 1967 parliamentary election.
		But survival of the party name does of indicate survival of the party, and the Radical Party the 1950s must be regarded as different from the Radical parties of the late 1960s.

		On the one hand, the inner-party "opposition" speaks for trade union and socialist party officials at all levels, and on the other hand for those radicalised layers of the middle class, who express their interests in different protest initiatives against the globalisation from Seattle to Millau.

	The French Communist Party discusses its latest electoral debacle
		Their role model is the Italian party Rifondazione Comunista, which emerged from the Italian Communist Party and absorbed numerous other radical groupings, including the Italian sister organisation, led by Livio Maitan, of the French LCR.
		The party withdrew the demand for the nationalisation of basic industry from its programme, advocated the defence of the fatherland and the rearmament of the military and refrained from any criticism of French colonial policy.
		The party’s debacle in the recent elections, in particular, is the reward for its role in implementing the right-wing policies of the Jospin government.
