In his second session, Professor Oh focused on the 2024 French elections and the future of France’s semi-presidential system. He discussed the structure of the French political and electoral system, major political parties, and the dynamics of the 2024 legislative elections, highlighting the challenges of government formation. Students gained detailed insights into both right- and left-wing parties, the two-round run-off voting system, and the political consequences of electoral outcomes. The session also examined the backlash faced by far-right parties from trade unions and analyzed the collapse of the Barnier cabinet. Overall, the session offered a nuanced understanding of contemporary French politics and the pressures shaping its institutional framework.
