This concise yet comprehensive volume gives a compelling introduction to the politics, society, economy and culture of France.

Moving beyond popular stereotypes, the book explores the reality of a diverse and changeable France. It examines the significance of developments from #MeToo to the 2024 Paris Olympics, while placing France in its international context and assessing its response to global crises.

The book provides:

- an accessible, jargon-free account informed by the latest data;

- an up-to-date analysis of today's political landscape;

- an ideal introduction for students and general readers alike.

Building on the success of its predecessor volume Contemporary France, this is a highly authoritative text that offers its readers keys for understanding how France is facing the challenges and opportunities of today's world.
