  • 2 Rosa, Humberto Delgado

    (1960-)
       Biologist, environmental activist, and public servant. Born in Lisbon in 1960, a grandson of the exiled General Humberto Delgado, Rosa received a biology degree from the Faculty of Sciences, University of Lisbon in 1983 and a Ph.D. in evolutionary biology from the same institution in 1995. He served as a faculty member in the animal biology department of his alma mater, as well as a researcher. He also served as advisor on the environment to several prime ministers beginning in 1995. In February 2005, Rosa was elected to the Assembly of the Republic as a member of the Socialist Party, and he was named Secretary of State for the Environment the same year.
       In his term as one of his country's principal civil servants and academic authorities concerned with ecology and the environment, Rosa has confronted important issues and problems in his area of expertise including recycling, incineration, climate change questions, and air quality. He is an important advocate and leader in renewable energy activities, and has supported greater emphasis on wind energy in Portugal. An active public speaker, Rosa has been a prolific researcher and author of works on biodiversity, bioethics, biotechnology, and the environment. He edited a book on bioethics for the natural sciences in 2004, in addition to publishing scores of articles in periodicals and chapters in books on these topics. He has also been a leader in various organizations concerned with the ecology and biology in the European Union as well as in Portugal.

  • 3 Mitterrand, François

       (adj. Mittérandiste)
       (1916 - 1996)
       Françoisz Mitterrand was the longest serving French president under the Fifth Republic. Mitterrand, a Socialist, served two full terms in office, from 1981 to 1995. He was also the oldest president of the Fifth republic, leaving the job at the age of 78. History will judge how successful Mitterrand was; adulated by his supporters, he was much maligned by his political opponents; but for the second period of both his terms, he was obliged to appoint a Prime Minister from the conservative opposition (leading to a state of " cohabitation" (q.v.)), following mid-term rejections of his socialist administrations. He will perhaps be remembered as an indecisive president; from 1981 to 1983, he oversaw left-wing policies, including the nationalisation of some banks and other major companies; but from 1983 onwards, this policy went into reverse, and from then on state companies were progressively privatized. He did much to free France from the tight constrictions of the Gaullist state, abolishing the death penalty and removing state control of the media; but he was party to a notorious act of international piracy, the sinking of the Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior in the harbour at Auckland, New Zealand, in which a Greenpeace activist was killed.
       Reelected in 1988, he pledged to follow a policy that was neither too left, nor too right. Known as the " ni-ni" policy ("neither nor" policy), this was frequently interpreted as being tantamount to no policy at all, and led to a crushing defeat for the Socialists in the 1993 general elections, as France's economic situation declined.

  • 4 Madelin, Alain

       Born 1946
       Former minister, Alain Madelin is renowned as the most strident defender of economic liberalism in France, during the early 1990s, at a time when "liberalism" was still the "L" word, even for many French conservatives. A right-wing activist during his student days, virulently anti-Socialist, Madelin later joined Giscard d'Estaing's centre-right UDF party. He held a number of ministerial portfolios, eventually being appointed Minister of Finance and the Economy by prime minister Edouard Balladur in 1995; Balladur however sacked him after three months, judging Madelin too liberal. In reality, Madelin was ahead of his times, and many of his economic ideas - aimed at freeing up the French economy - have since been put in place. In 1997, he became president of the Parti Républicain (PR), which he later renamed Démocratie Libérale(DL): in 2003 DL merged with the mainstream conservative UMP party. Madelin retired from politics in 2007.

  • 5 Lalonde, Brice

       Born 1946. Lalonde was the first "green" politician in France to gain a position of influence in French government. President of the Student Union UNEF during the events of 1968, he later founded the French branch of Friends of the Earth, and subsequently became a Greenpeace activist, campaiging against French nuclear tests in the south Pacific. He was director of campaign for the first green candidate in a presidential election, René Dumont in 1974, and subsequently ran for president himself. In 1990, he founded the first successful Green party, called Génération Ecologie, and was appointed Minister of the environment in the Socialist government of Edith Cresson, a post he held for just one year.
