In its Saturday, October 17, 2026 broadcast, France Inter presents a new episode of Recto, covering several major current affairs topics. On the agenda: economic relations between China and Europe, social movements, and the representation of women in literature.
The program first focuses on economic relations between China and Europe. Sandrine Zerbib, an expert on the Chinese market and former Adidas executive in China, discusses the growing influence of Chinese companies and the challenges European businesses face in responding to this competition.
Another important topic explored in the episode is social tensions and public demonstrations. Sociologist Nicolas Duvoux provides his analysis of inequality and the feelings of injustice that can lead citizens to protest. This discussion offers listeners a better understanding of the concerns and challenges facing society today.
The podcast also highlights culture and literature through an interview with author Chloé Delaume, who presents her book Lilith & Cie, illustrated by Pénélope Bagieu. The book explores different female figures from mythology and fiction, giving them a renewed voice and perspective.
Through these various discussions, Recto-Verso offers a broad perspective on current affairs by combining economics, social issues, and culture. The program encourages listeners to discover different points of view and deepen their understanding of today’s world.
