Zusammenfassung

Emmanuel Macron has presented a number of speeches on the future of the EU which point to a fundamental change of paradigm in the French presidential discourse on the EU. For the first time, a French president tries to translate his domestic role of unifier of the nation to the European Union as a political entity. He addresses the Europeans as “community of destiny” and portrays the European Union as level of action without alternative. This change of paradigm may be positive for chances of Franco-German leadership in the EU. The type of symbolic politics Macron is playing has been a blank position in the EU for quite some time and could successfully underpin new initiatives. Their success, however, depends on the type of issue-coalitions among EU member states.

Abstract

Emmanuel Macron has presented a number of speeches on the future of the EU which point to a fundamental change of paradigm in the French presidential discourse on the EU. For the first time, a French president tries to translate his domestic role of unifier of the nation to the European Union as a political entity. He addresses the Europeans as “community of destiny” and portrays the European Union as level of action without alternative. This change of paradigm may be positive for chances of Franco-German leadership in the EU. The type of symbolic politics Macron is playing has been a blank position in the EU for quite some time and could successfully underpin new initiatives. Their success, however, depends on the type of issue-coalitions among EU member states.
