- Title
Polizeigewalt und städtische Revolten in Frankreich. Der Sommer 2023.
- Authors
Jobard, Fabien
- Abstract
In the summer of 2023, France experienced a wave of urban revolts the likes of which the country had never seen before: half a thousand cities were affected, more than 10,000 vehicles were set on fire, as well as nearly 300 police or gendarmerie buildings and more than 100 town halls. The article looks at the immediate causes of this explosion and, with a comparative look at the 2005 uprisings, analyses the possible impact of these riots on relations between politics and the underprivileged youth on the one hand and between politics and the police on the other, in a context in which a fatal police shooting was the trigger for the riots but the police remained immune to any criticism from those responsible for the government.
