For a Europe of the Regions

Abstract

A verdict without appeal in favour of “the nationalists” In spite of the high number of non-voters, the more than 56% of votes for the nationalist coalition in the elections in Corsica on December 10, 2017, indicate a support for their ideas and not a rejection of the local political class as it is wrongly believed in Paris. In that coalition, there is a cohabitation of several trends of Corsica’s national movements, from the most radical to the most moderate, but all of them start from the postulate that there is indeed a Corsican people and nation who have a right to be recognized and exercise certain forms of sovereignty, from full autonomy to independence.
