Alors que les travaux parlementaires reprennent lundi, une étude dissèque les discours tenus à l’Assemblée nationale depuis 2007. L’un des trois coauteurs explique, dans un entretien au « Monde », que celle-ci met en lumière l’arrivée d’une nouvelle génération d’élus en 2017, prompts à se servir des réseaux sociaux.
The main conceptual idea from the text is that the French National Assembly has transformed into a "spectacle" fueled by social media and a new generation of politicians.
The study, conducted by Yann Algan and his colleagues, analyzed two million speeches from 2007 to 2024 and found evidence of increased polarization, emotional rhetoric, and a focus on capturing attention through social media, reminiscent of content popular on platforms like TikTok. This suggests a shift in the nature of political discourse, prioritizing performance and virality over substantive debate.
