Cyril Benoît, politiste : « La proportionnelle n’engendre pas le compromis, elle le présuppose »
Le fonctionnement des démocraties à dominante proportionnelle ne dépend pas de leurs systèmes électoraux, mais des institutions sociales qui les soutiennent, explique Cyril Benoît dans une tribune au « Monde ». Or, la France s’est éloigné de la culture de la concertation sociale.

Do referendums lead citizens to know more about the issue of the referendum after it was shockingly defeated by the public? I answer this question based on the EU Constitution referendum here: doi.org/10.1080/0703... a short thread below

Good opportunity to criticise the Prius and its hybrid technology. It came out in the 1990s at a time of strong interest in pure EVs & contributed to kill its momentum. This fence-sitting between climate and economics has delayed the rise of EVs for years as well as the broader energy transition.
Funnily enough, this very good piece calling for a "green economic populism" (by @triofrancos.bsky.social & @aldasky.bsky.social) came out just when we submitted ours on the need for "climate populism": www.nytimes.com/2025/01/07/o... We are all living in the same conjuncture, I guess..
Médaille de bronze du CNRS pour ma coauteure et amie, @iguinaudeau.bsky.social. Félicitations à elle!
