Book summary

Who votes for whom and why? How has the social structure of the electorates of the various political currents in France changed between 1789 and 2022? Based on an unprecedented digitisation of electoral and socio-economic data from France’s 36,000 communes spanning more than two centuries, this book offers a history of voting and inequalities based on the French laboratory.

Julia Cagé is professor at Sciences Po and winner of the Best Young French Economist Award (2023).

Thomas Piketty is professor at PSE, director of studies at EHESS and co-director of the WIL.
