 Diverted tautological political communication in French presidential elections: The case of Lionel Jospin in 1995
This deviation of Lionel Jospin’s communication by the media and opinion surveys - or ‘diverted tautological political communication’ - is the focus of this article, and we shall notably investigate, via analysis of the media perception of Jospin’s 1995 presidential campaign, the mechanisms leading to the media’s influence over the public perception of presidential candidates.
As far as Lionel Jospin was concerned, the range of campaigning techniques at his disposal in 1995 was considerably narrower than that employed by François Mitterrand’s campaigning team in 1988.
Jospin’s ‘presidential credibility’ rose from 21% in December to 32% in January and 49% at the end of February.

 Leader of the French OCI acknowledges past relations with Prime Minister Jospin
Lambert denied that Jospin was a “mole”: “I don’t think that Jospin was a mole in the Socialist Party; he joined because of a particular brand of politics espoused by François Mitterrand: the break with capitalism.
Although the OCI dissociated itself from a revolutionary perspective long ago, it is certainly noteworthy that a man, who worked for an organisation claiming to be Trotskyist for a great part of his life, now stands at the head of the French government and could possibly assume the post of head of state from 2002.
Jospin’s experience in left-wing politics is required in order to keep increasing social and political tensions under control and to help dispel any threat to the ruling class.

 "Jospin's Infamous Remark Reveals Split in French Consensus on Mideast" (March 2000)
The spectacle appears to be representative of an underlying split between the socialist wing of the French government represented by Prime Minister Jospin (with the support of the National Assembly) and the conservative wing represented by President Chirac.
Jospin's remarks should therefore be seen as a calculated decision to solidify his political support among French liberals in general and the French Jewish community in particular.

 Lionel Jospin and Trotskyism: the debate over the French prime minister's past
Jospin always rejected these allegations, saying he was being mistaken for his brother Olivier, who had been a prominent member of the OCI into the 1980s.
There is, however, an obvious connection between Jospin’s career and the development of the OCI itself, which rapidly turned away from Trotskyist principles at the end of the 1960s, when Jospin was in close contact with the organisation.
In the wake of the mass strike movement in the autumn of 1996, Jospin was, to the surprise of the French political establishment and the media, elected prime minister in 1997.

Jospin, it now seems, has only one strategy: to run down the clock to his expected bid for the presidency in 2002.
Further signs that Jospin had adopted a more conservative game plan came with his cabinet appointments of Socialists closely associated with the late François Mitterrand, including former Prime Minister Laurent Fabius as Finance and Economics Minister and former culture czar Jack Lang to replace Allègre.
Jospin may let him try out some of those ideas, but it will be at Fabius' peril alone.
