MARLIERE, Philippe. The rise of left-wing populism in French politics: The case of Jean-Luc Mélenchon's France Insoumise. Relações Internacionais [online]. 2017, n.56, pp.61-76. ISSN 1645-9199. https://doi.org/10.23906/ri2017.56a04.
In the run-up to the 2017 presidential election in France, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who had been associated with the radical left, formed a new movement called France Insoumise (Unbowed France – FI). This was an attempt to organise the masses along the lines of an agonistic cleavage between ‘the people' and ‘the elite', and this was also a radical break with the collective forms of leadership and action on the French left. What defines FI's populism is the role and the centrality of the leader. One may wonder whether populism is the best strategy to broaden the left's electorate as left-wing and right-wing populisms do not tap in the same culture and do not express the same feelings
