- Actualité Sciences Po
In the wake of financial, sovereign debt and health crises, public interventions in the European economy have taken on a new level of breadth, marking a reentry in force of the state in economic life that goes beyond the regulatory state.

The Far-Right Protest Observatory
- Actualité Sciences Po
Far-right extra-parliamentary mobilization has gained importance globally, notably as a grassroots reaction to migration, Covid-19, and climate action. Today, street activism has emerged as a crucial avenue for far-right parties and movements to voice their grievances and shape public debates.
