Sylvain Bordiec

Sylvain Bordiec is a sociologist and co-author of 'Sociologie des Gilets jaunes' (Sociology of the Yellow Vests), who has analyzed the ongoing discontent in France stemming from economic struggles and dissatisfaction with the political system. He observes that the anger that fueled the Yellow Vest protests from 2018 to 2019 has not dissipated; rather, it has intensified due to rising financial difficulties among the populace, contributing to a new wave of protests as citizens seek greater representation and social equity.
