"Culture, understood broadly, lay at the heart of contrasting right-wing strategies
for government in France during the pivotal decade of 2002-2012. Looking at issues
of political secularism, educational reform, televisual performance, public memory
and nation-branding, Ahearne analyses how Presidents Chirac and Sarkozy sought to
redefine contemporary French identity. The study extends prevailing conceptions of
'cultural policy', and shows how this constitutes a core dimension, alongside economic
and social policies, of modern right-wing government. It traces, over the course of
the decade in question, a dramatic hardening of the attitudes and values informing
these programmes for cultural hegemony. These reflect enduring transformations in
the political and symbolic landscape of contemporary France"
