Abstract

French President Emmanuel Macron wants to be reelected in 2022. In view of citi­zens' disenchantment with the political and social order of their country and the consequences of the Corona pandemic, the president feels compelled to embark on a 'new way'. This new approach has three components: a move away from the policy of budget consolidation, a political positioning within the neoliberal-conservative faction of the political spectrum, and greater proximity to the people. If Macron receives interim support from the European Union (EU) to cushion the consequences of Covid-19 for France's economic and social system, he should be able to strengthen reform forces at home and enable France to broker compromises on vital subjects concerning EU reform.
