@corrocher @filobus I think you may have something interesting here. I totally agree on point (3) as a cause, and on the total absence of a (center)-left.Especially the absence of a left with a solid political agenda is a major problem, because population don't even see alternatives to the far right proposals... (and to proposals that would be appropriate in a board, much less in politics). And this contributes (a) to the rise of populisms and far right parties and (b) to people loosing faith in politics.As @filobus stated people is tired to be the politicians cash cow or the playing field for their own personal ambitions.
