In other words, one-third of French voters are now attracted to candidates with extreme ideologies that share an anti-liberal rejection of the euro, capitalism, and globalization. Both sides find their roots in an idealized past: the French Revolution and its egalitarian promise for the far left, and the French Empire and its domination of the world’s non-white peoples for the far right.
换句话说，1/3的法国选民都被持有极端意识形态，共同反对欧元，资本主义和全球化等自由主义理念的候选人所吸引。两派都能在一个理想化的历史中找到自己的根据：极左那边，是法国大革命及其平等主义承诺，极右那边则是法兰西帝国及其对所有非白色人种的统治。
