Front National (France) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia National Front was also one of several parties that backed France's 2005 rejection of the European Constitution. The Front National (National Front in English; acronym: FN) is a controversial far-right political party in France. According to Front rhetoric, the French right-wing parties are not true right-wing parties, and are almost indistinguishable from the "Socialo-Communist" left; the corrupt "establishment" is betraying France, and it opposes by all means the coming of the Front. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/National_Front_(France)   (973 words)

H-France Reviews The Front National was successful making anti-immigration policies its political battle horse and moving the immigration debate to the center stage of French politics, but it did so by building on pre-existing anti-immigrant sentiments developed by the political left and right during the 1970s. While economic factors are less important to National Front ideology, the party’s position evolved during the 1980s from one in favor of neo-liberalism to one that opposed the forces of globalization and European integration, regarded as undercutting national sovereignty. In the course of the 1980s, the Front National became more proletarian as the base of supporters shifted from more established and prosperous conservative voters to the working class, who had traditionally belonged to left parties. www.h-france.net /vol5reviews/derderian.html   (2017 words)

Le Front national The detorioration of the social fabric that unemployement inevitably engendered in certain areas of France, in particular its banlieues, and the accompanying fear of crime and civic unrest is another factor that the Front National has successfully exploited and is clearly related to the Front National's racist agenda. The rise of the Front National may be seen as a symptom of the difficulties of transition and adaption to a post-industrial, post-colonial, post-national society. In the context of economic decline, unemployment and the perceived erosion of `national identity' as France became increasingly involved in European political and economic unification and `invaded' or `flooded' by immigrants, xenophobia became increasingly pronounced. www.well.ac.uk /cfol/lefront.asp   (2573 words)

FYIFrance.04.15.97.txt France is in some danger nowadays: persistent 12+% unemployment, major national strikes in all sectors -- hospital interns, bus services, public employees, airline personnel (no this is not "the usual", it is worse) -- the European Unity that isn't, the Russians, Algeria and Bosnia, and now this growing Front National cancer. The Front National -- a right - wing extremist party which advocates anti - immigration policies, among other disturbing things -- recently won mayoral races in four southern towns in France: Marignane, Orange, Toulon and Vitrolles. To be a librarian in a city of the Front National is impossible; for -- simply -- libraries, as we all know, are tools of pluralism, of toleration, places for the exchange of ideas, basically open, providing free access, and multi - cultural. www.lib.berkeley.edu /Collections/FYIFrance/1997/FYIFrance.04.15.97.txt   (1371 words)

BBC News Europe French National Front splits France's far-right National Front has split in two after the leader of a rebel faction claimed victory in his battle to seize control from the party's founder Jean-Marie Le Pen. France's National Front, which is Western Europe's biggest extreme-right party, currently wins about 15% of the vote in national elections. The move leaves France with two National Fronts, each determined to put up candidates for the European Parliament elections in June. news.bbc.co.uk /1/hi/world/europe/261284.stm   (477 words)

FYI France (sm)(tm) Resource List -- The Front National The presentation of the FN here is being made not to victimize France or the French: their "Front National" is a social illness which any of us could have -- most of us do, in one way or another, although the infection is perhaps not so virulent elsewhere as it is in France today. So the Front National also may benefit from whatever marginality is out there on the "Europe" issue: people afraid of the Germans, people longing for their old icons, people afraid of "Europe", people afraid of "change", people afraid of their own fear... Still, the significant statistic appears to be that nearly 1 in 5 French voters now favors the Front National: or at least is so fed up with her / his politics-- these are the folks who were not calm enough simply to abstain -- that the vote has gone in that direction. www.fyifrance.com /fnind.htm   (3336 words)

Is the French National Front giving up on France? Certainly the National Front has changed since the early 1980s, when it tried to mix Reagan-Thatcher capitalism with a vociferous opposition to the then-prevalent high levels of immigration. As an antidote to this homogenization, the Front is embracing cultural diversity--especially the cultural diversity of Muslims. For Lagane to say, essentially, that the Front respects culture and cares about culture --all cultures, culture and tradition themselves as concepts, he is challenging all other political parties and voters, who are presumably anti-tradition or at least tradition-apathetic, to defend the indefensible and self-contradictory tenets of multiculturalism. www.amnation.com /vfr/archives/001389.html   (3760 words)

"LePen's National Front: A Threat to the Jews of France" by Robert O. Freedman On the other hand, however, if France's problems are allowed to continue to fester, and the French public increasingly loses faith in the ability of the major parties of the right and left to deal with their problems, LePen's National Front may well continue to gain in influence. It is the leaders of the major political parties who must play the key role in weakening the appeal of the National Front, such as Lionel Jospin, France's new Socialist prime minister who came to power as a result of the May-June 1997 elections. Thus LePen asserts that the National Front, by opposing immigration, alone is the defender of French civilization from within and without; that a vote for the National Front is a vote for French civilization, and against European domination and foreign (read Moslem) immigration. www.jcpa.org /jl/vp370.htm   (2772 words)

Anti-Semitism Worldwide 1999/2000 - France The Front National and the Mouvement National Républicain were competing for the leadership of the extreme right. The youth movement, Front National de la Jeunesse (FNJ), led by Guillaume Luyt until his resignation in April 2000, never attracted more than 1,200 dues-paying members, and is more radical than the party itself. Following the split, a handful of radical, national revolutionary and national Bolshevik militants remained within the FN, the majority joined the MNR, and the rest followed their own line; in the case of the latter, many supporters retained dual membership with either the MNR or, to a lesser extent, with the FN. www.tau.ac.il /Anti-Semitism/asw99-2000/france.htm   (3666 words)

H-France Reviews One of the key points that DeClair makes about the Front National, and perhaps by implication the far right in Europe, is that the leadership cadre is divided into factions, the founders, the notables, and the new recruits, which have different orientations and which, accordingly, appeal to different constituencies.
