Is there a need for a “civic rearmament” of youth?

Is there a need for a civic rearmament of youth

It has become Emmanuel Macron’s favorite word: rearmament. Through this formula, the French president intends in particular to reconnect young people with civic-mindedness via several decisions such as the generalization of the Universal National Service or the experiment with the “unique outfit”. Why does this question of strengthening civic education regularly come up in public debate? Is there a real emergency today? What can the proposed answers bring?

To debate it :

– Ambroise Méjean, president of young people with Macron, member of the Executive Bureau of Renaissance

– Maé Bouteille, Vice-President in charge of Youth Policies at the Federation of General Student Associations (FAGE)

– Dorian Dreuilexpert political scientist associated with the Jean Jaurès Foundation, teacher at the new College of Political Studies of Paris Nanterre.
