Description

This scholarly work examines Charles De Gaulle's pioneering use of television between 1958 and 1969, revealing how the French leader wielded mass media to establish and legitimise Gaullist leadership during the Fifth Republic. Published by Palgrave Macmillan, the book traces De Gaulle's evolution from his Second World War radio broadcasts, which earned him the epithet General-micro, to his strategic command of television as a tool for political power and presidentialism. The study explores the intricate relationship between charismatic authority and broadcast media, demonstrating how De Gaulle transformed television into an instrument for shaping public perception and consolidating presidential authority. Essential reading for historians, political scientists and students of twentieth-century European politics seeking to understand how De Gaulle's media strategy fundamentally altered French political culture and the nature of executive power during one of France's most transformative periods.

Key Features

Charles De Gaulle's television strategy between 1958 and 1969 is examined as a foundation for understanding modern political communication and presidential authority.

The book traces De Gaulle's media evolution from his General-micro radio broadcasts during the Second World War to his sophisticated use of television during the Fifth Republic.

Published by Palgrave Macmillan, this work situates De Gaulle's media mastery within broader European political history and twentieth-century leadership studies.

The narrative connects De Gaulle's charismatic power with television's role in legitimising Gaullist governance and establishing presidentialism in French politics.
