aujourd’hui<\/a> m\u00eame.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tLe but de Martin Jacques est d’appeler aux armes, citoyens d’Europe, progressistes et lib\u00e9raux dans le sens politique, contre la menace fasciste, raciste, n\u00e9o-conservatrice, pro-am\u00e9ricaniste, de Nicolas Sarkozy. Ce qui est somme toute int\u00e9ressant est de voir que cet appel aux armes s’appuie notamment, mais essentiellement, sur l’exaltation de la n\u00e9cessit\u00e9 fran\u00e7aise, de la puissance d’influence et de prestige de la France, notamment exprim\u00e9e ces cinq derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es durant l’\u00e9pisode onusien (discours de Villepin, France contre les USA et l’aventure irakienne, etc.), au cours duquel bien entendu ce furent le parti de Sarkozy et le gouvernement qui en \u00e9manait, qui \u00e9taient au pouvoir. Mais l’on sait la complication r\u00e9elle de toutes ces choses derri\u00e8re l’\u00e9tiquettage. Du m\u00eame coup et sans doute pour cette raison, la chose se transforme \u00e9galement en une violente attaque contre la politique blairiste.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
\t\u00abIt is no surprise that neoliberal economic thinking still predominates. New Labour enthusiastically embraced the central tenets of Thatcherism and has presided over an extremely long boom. It is rather harder to explain the continuing attachment to pro-Americanism at a time when US foreign policy stands deeply discredited. Two European nations emerged with credit from the Iraq disaster: France and Germany. Both had the courage to withstand the Bush administration and oppose the US-led invasion.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/p>\n\t\u00bbWho was right: Chirac and Schr\u00f6der or Bush and Blair? Bush and Blair stand condemned by their own publics and face imminent political extinction. The ability of the French establishment, right and left, to think independently of the US for the past half-century is to be commended in contrast to the supine pro-Americanism that has long characterised British foreign policy thinking and which reached its nadir in 2003. In that same year, France did the world a service by leading the opposition within the UN and refusing to allow the body to be used as a tool of Anglo-American policy. While the US and Britain were committed to the idea of a unipolar world, Chirac upheld the principle of a multi-polar world. As the world changes before our eyes, you need only one partially sighted eye to see who was right. In contrast, New Labour’s foreign policy has been a disaster. It is difficult to see how anyone can seriously advocate it as a model for other European countries.<\/em>\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\tTout se m\u00e9lange d’une fa\u00e7on extr\u00eamement fascinante, droite et gauche, atlantistes et anti-am\u00e9ricanistes, et, au bout du compte, Fran\u00e7ais et Anglais Finalement, on peut avoir une bonne mesure de la confusion caus\u00e9e par les \u00e9lections pr\u00e9sidentielles fran\u00e7aises et la difficult\u00e9 extr\u00eame de comprendre qui sont exactement les candidats, avec le courrier de r\u00e9actions de lecteurs qui suit l’article de Martin Jacques. Il y est bien plus question des questions transatlantiques avec les choix id\u00e9ologiques qui vont avec chez les Britanniques et les Anglo-Saxons en g\u00e9n\u00e9ral, que chez les Fran\u00e7ais.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
