Abstract: Populist parties made spectacular gains between 2002 and 2022. While multiple factors can explain this, the deterioration or disappearance of public services in many rural or peripheral areas plays a significant role. This is shown by a study analyzing the relationship between the disappearance of public services and changes in voting behavior in France.
