How to get France's left-wing party back in business
To begin, the left-wing party does not seem to harbor any rancor. The party’s leader, Francois Hollande, seemed to be quite positive of his party’s current situation. Indeed, he told journalists the night of the elections Royal fought hard in the campaign - which is true-, and she had done an excellent job - not so true. After all, the French did choose Sarkozy to take the lead. But, the left-wing party needs to be “renovated”. Overhauling the entire party is needed, according to some socialists, such as the famous Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
The party needs a centre program. Of course it must keep its left-wing ideas, but it should also accept today’s world is free trade, and not socialism. By mixing liberalism with socialism, the left-wing party could have a chance to gain some ground. By doing so, it might steel the centre-wing concept (pulling in liberals and socialists). Yet, because the centre-wing concept isn’t quite understandable, the left-wing party has quite of a good opportunity to seize.
