Le sens et le rôle de la résistance à l'UE pour le Parti de gauche | ||
in Politique européenne , n. 43, 2014/1 , 2014 , 68-92 | ||
This article focuses on opposition to Europe from the socialist dissenters who founded the Left Party and co-founded the Left Front. We argue that opposition to Europe is not only a form of resistance to European integration, but also a catalyst of dissent, a tool for mobilization and differentiation towards the Socialist party, and a way to define the boundaries of the “other left”. The article deals with the ideological meaning and strategic use of opposition to Europe, which has played a significant role in the political enterprise of unifying socialist dissenters. | ||
