	Unreconstructed Marchais Bows Out (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Marchais' dogmatic style enraged and frustrated other members of the French Communist hierarchy, driving longtime supporters such as his former spokesman, Pierre Juquin, to break with the party.
		Marchais later acknowledged that he had committed a terrible mistake by linking his party with the Socialists, and within three years it left the government.
		Marchais, however, kept a tenacious hold on the French public because of his proletarian bluster and a penchant for tantrums that set him apart from the button-down style of most politicians.

		Georges Marchais, a longtime French Communist Party leader who adhered closely to Moscow's line even as other European communists drew away, died early yesterday.
		The blunt-talking Marchais, whose penchant for inflicting verbal knockouts left an indelible mark on the French political scene, died at 6 a.m.
		Marchais had suffered heart problems and wore a pacemaker, and had been hospitalized for the past week.

	Marchais, Georges
		Marchais had worked his way up the party organization despite joining relatively late, in 1947.
		Having stood as the PCF's 1981 presidential candidate against François Mitterrand, he agreed to communist participation in government from June 1981 but withdrew in 1984.
		Marchais' doctrinal and tactical manoeuvring eventually catalysed successive waves of dissidence, challenging the party's internal monolithism.

		Georges Marchais and the Decline of French Communism
		Georges Marchais’s long tenure as the leader of the French Communist Party (PCF) witnessed a sharp decline in the party’s electoral performance.
		A new biography of Marchais, by Thomas Hofnung, provides a nuanced assessment of the French Communist leader, showing why Marchais’s political instincts, which once proved so remarkably effective, began to fail him the longer he was in power.

		Georges Marchais (June 7 1920 - November 16 1997) was the head of the French Communist Party, and a candidate in the French presidential elections of 1981.
		Georges Marchais was a notable personality because of his mannerisms (Ct'un scandaaaale — "This is a scandal!") and brusque demeanor, often lambasted by comic Thierry Le Luron.

		True, Marchais flirted in the 1970s with "Eurocommunism" - a movement, inspired mainly by the Italian and Spanish Communist parties, which stressed independence from the Soviet Union and acceptance of the rules of Western democracy.
		Of course, Marchais himself volunteered to work at an aircraft plant in Nazi Germany in 1942, though he preferred in later years to conceal that episode of his life in layers of half-truths and obfuscations.
		How ironic, but how fitting a tribute to Marchais that, by the time of his death, hundreds of thousands of French voters had transferred their political allegiance from the Communist Party to the far-right National Front.

		Marchais, 60, an aggressive, hard-lining former metalworker who has been party boss for the past eight years, seized the occasion to launch some characteristically hard-bitten attacks on the leading candidates.
		Marchais, in fact, seems to go out of his way to frighten middle-of-the-road voters out of supporting Mitterrand.
		Marchais lashed out with a number of statements that served to frighten voters—and thus ensured the victory of Giscard's coalition.

		It was these personal rivalries and ideological differences which led to Chirac's creation of the neo-Gaullist Rassemblement pour la République (RPR) in 1976 and the formation of the 'electoral umbrella' of the Union pour la Démocratie Française (UDR) in 1978 in preparation for a divided right in the Legislative elections of 1978.
		The politics of the left were marked by the struggle between and difficult collaboration of the Socialist party (PS) led by François Mitterrand and the Communist party (PC) led by Georges Marchais.
		The Programme Commun of 1972 allowed the parties of the left to present Mitterrand as a joint candidate in 1974, but by the late-1970s, the cooperation between PS and PC had broken down because of ideological differences and rivalry between the parties.

		The Socialist Workers Party in particular gives the impression that the main problem with the bombings was that they were directed at proletarian opponents of the war in Iraq rather than the G8 leaders in Gleneagles.
		The SWP and the rest of the cretino-left that blames the bombings on the Iraq war – George Galloway, Tariq Ali et cetera – are beneath contempt.
		Their mealy-mouthed apologias for terrorist murder cannot be taken seriously and their take on the impact of the 7/7 outrages is risible.

	Saggio di Mauro Bruscagin
		I segretari dei tre partiti (in particolare Marchais e Berlinguer) sono infatti più preoccupati di affermare che il vero scopo del vertice è portare solidarietà al Pce, ancora formalmente non legalizzato, piuttosto che dare consistenza a questa ipotesi di nuovo centro del mondo comunista.
		Si può agevolmente notare che tra gli insegnamenti di Lenin e le parole di Marchais il salto è notevole.
		Infatti, secondo Marchais, sbagliano quanti affermano che i regimi dei paesi dell'Est sono tutti a partito unico, perché, in realtà, in stati come la Bulgaria e la Germania Est, per non parlare della Polonia, vi sarebbero dei veri e propri sistemi multipartitici.

		The village du livre, a vast tent that is the traditional showcase for Marxist authors' latest books, was barely large enough to contain the hubbub of dissent and debate that has raged through the party since last spring's electoral disaster.
		The brooding began in April, when Communist Secretary-General Georges Marchais came under widespread attack in party ranks as the cause of the disaster.
		When Marchais chose simply to blame the Socialists rather than examine in cold detail the causes of the March defeat, six party intellectuals took the unprecedented step of attacking the Politburo in Le Monde.

		The record of public diplomacy during the Cold War provides some important lessons for U.S. foreign policymakers in the post-Cold War world.
		Shortly after Marchais took over, the PCF received more than 20 percent of the vote in parliamentary elections; by the time he left office, the party’s share of the vote had dropped to less than 10 percent.
		Marchais’s decision to endorse the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979-1980 symbolized the decline of the PCF, but even then, Marchais’s colleagues were unwilling to remove him.

		In the nineteenth century, the British Liberal Party was a party of free trade and laissez-faire capitalism; but in the twentieth century, under its charismatic leader Lloyd George, it pioneered the 'welfare state' (beginning with free medical provision in the Highlands of Scotland) and favoured European economic union.
		Over the same period, British Conservatives moved from trade protectionism (especially in agriculture) to championing free trade (in particular, under Mrs Thatcher, protesting about the European Common Agricultural Policy); and, after Suez (1957), they moved from championing Britain's Empire and Commonwealth to indifference (reacting against the preference of the 'New' Commonwealth for socialism and subsidies).
