Autorenporträt

Jean-Luc Mélenchon was born in Morocco in 1951. He was for many years a leading member of the French Socialist Party, serving as a minister in the government of Lionel Jospin. He broke with the Socialists in 2008 and founded the organisation that is now La France Insoumise. He stood in the presidential elections of 2012, 2017 and 2024, and in the latter came very close to beating the far right candidate Marine Le Pen to get into the run-off. He is the author of twenty books.
