As Presidentials are coming fast, Publications are increasing and everyday, Celebrities, Politicians, Intellectuals, Journalists... wanting to participate in politics, believing playing a part in the actual Debates, do not hesitate to publish their analysis, thoughts, political ideology... Below three Books giving an example of what is published :

- 'DE LA POLICE EN DEMOCRATIE' (Police in Democracy), by Sebastian ROCHE and published by Grasset Editions. The Author is a Political Scientist specialized in Delinquency and the Police. He is Director of Research at CNRS, at Sciences Po Grenoble, and Expert to the United Nations. He already wrote a dozen Books.
Starting with the statement that, because of the attacks going on the last years, it has seemed that the relationship between Police and Citizens had changed. Yesterday, accused of facies control, easy violence, the police was finally acclaimed. But rapidly, the classic schema of People and Police, far from respecting each other, clash. How to explain this kind of relationship ? The Author, for the first time, compiled several years of fieldwork and comparative studies to explain in detail how we came to this point. Very interesting Book, going through France versus Abroad, the Police Legitimacy (France and Europe), Police impartiality regarding the Suburbs, Atheists and Religious with their judgment on Police Efficiency and Equity...
- L'HOMME AU DEFI DES CRISES - Pourquoi le pire n'est jamais certain' (Human with the challenge of Crisis - Why the worse in never certain), by Didier LE BRET and published by Robert LAFFONT Editions. Diplomate in Moscow (during USSR), New York (in 2001), Haïti (during the Hearthquake in 2010).... He is actually, candidate for the 2017 Legislative Campaign. Throughout the Book, the Author explains to us how he sees the actual World and its complexity. First of all, to understand the CRISIS,... The great Upheaval (the old world in crisis, the coming threats, the loss of confidence, the impotence of the leaders,...), Hope despite everything, the Poors, the Victory of Democracy, the New Economy of Knowledge, the Social and Solidarity Economy..
- 'CE QUE DOIT FAIRE LE (PROCHAIN) PRESIDENT (What should do the (Next) President), by Agnès VERDIER-MOLINIE and published by Albin Michel Editions. The Author is CEO of iFRAP Foundation, a Think Tank which 'evaluate public policy'. She often intervenes in the Media on the theme of the Presidential Campaign. The Author starst with the Statement that it is legitimate to intervene in the Presidentials Debate. Why not giving his/her point of view when the Next President will have the moral obligation of giving results... The Political Representatives, Syndicates, Managers, Ministers... BEAR the responsibility of the current Country's situation.
The Author starts by proposing to stop the waste, to simplify and to save, to neutralize the enemies of the 'needed' changes, what has to be done immediately,... To finally propose a 2017-2022 Agenda.... Her proposals are harsh and will cause strong oppositions. Her ideas appear very liberal and going positively towards the Private Sector which is describds as the Victim and the Public Service as a Heavy Weight. Some ideas seem excellent in a way but a bit radical... Anyway, she is often called by the Media to give her Opinion/Analysis.... Is it a quality in itself ?
