Revisits the two rounds of the 2007 French presidential election (April 22 and May 6, 2007), where Conservative leader Nicolas Sarkozy won a clear victory over his Socialist opponent, Ségolène Royal.

Is all this period of unrest visibly set in motion by social activists, agitators, ordinary people, politicians, publicity agents?
