Cohabitation in France: Crisis of the Conservatives
Since the start of the "cohabitation" with the Socialist prime minister Lionel Jospin (PSF) in 1997, France's Conservatives led by state president Jacques Chirac (RPR) have been in continuous decline. A bottom line was reached now with the election of the EU-Parliament in June, when Chirac's Gaullist Party RPR reached only 12,7 %, its worst result ever. The biggest problem of Chirac's, who is still very popular among the French people, is now the growing party fragmentation in his conservative alliance, where Nationalist and Europhobic forces proved their strength. In the government coalition the Socialists, reaching 22,0 % of consensus, were at least able to consolidate their leadership, although even in the center-left-alliance some minor parties advanced. In view of the next presidential elections in 2002 both sides and both candidates, Chirac and Jospin, could find it now harder to reorganize their forces. All these difficulties seem to confirm the crisis of the French Presidential System, which has lately evidenced its growing tendency towards distributing the two major political offices to two opposing leaders.

Democracy in Yugoslavia: Milosevic´s Final Defeat
After four bloody conflicts Slobodan Milosevic, the “terror of the Balkans”, has met his final defeat. Sixteen months after his last war in Kosovo his criminal regime was finally swept away by a people´s revolt. Beaten in presidential elections by opposition leader Vojislav Kostunica, Milosevic has tried every trick to stay on, but when he ordered to annul the elections, the Serbian people marched upon Belgrade and stormed the Parliament. Yugoslavia´s new president Vojislav Kostunica was warmly welcomed by the European democratic leaders, who have quickly removed most sanctions against the country. But after the forthcoming elections in December the new democratic governments of Yugoslavia and Serbia have the difficult task to reconstruct the economy as well as the democratic institutions and a good neighborhood in the Balkans. First of all the new president must renegotiate the status of Montenegro and Kosovo, two regions trying to pull out of the Federation. Another critical question is the fate of the war criminals, first among them Milosevic, who would not like it to be processed at the Hague.
