Le Figaro Magazine is a French language weekly news magazine published in Paris, France. The magazine is the weekly supplement of the daily newspaper Le Figaro.
History and profile
The magazine is the first supplement of Le Figaro.[1] It was established in 1978[2][3] when Le Figaro Littéraire was renamed as Le Figaro Magazine.[4] Louis Pauwels was functional in its start[5][6] and was appointed its director.[7] His daughter, Marie-Claire Pauwels, also worked as fashion director of the magazine from1980 to 2006.[8]
The magazine is part of the Figaro Group.[9][10] The group also owns the daily newspaper Le Figaro and the magazines Le Particulier and Madame Figaro Magazine.[10][11] Le Figaro Magazine is published by Société du Figaro S.A. on a weekly basis and is sold with Le Figaro on Saturdays.[12]
The headquarters of Le Figaro Magazine is in Paris.[12] It provides articles on news about political events and current affairs.[13] The weekly also features articles concerning art, music and literature.[13] The magazine has a right-wing stance as Le Figaro.[14] One of the concepts the magazine opposes is cosmopolitanism, which refers to non-European migration to France.[15] The weekly supported the New Right movement in France.[15] Some GRECE members, an ethnonationalist think-tank, sit on the editorial team of the magazine.[16][17] Louis Pauwels, who directed and founded the magazine, was a member of GRECE,[5] and Alain de Benoist, founder of the organization, was also one of the regular contributors.[7][18] This close connection between the magazine and GRECE continued until 1980.[19] Although the magazine remained loyal to its conservative stance, it began to support for neoliberalism.[19]
Alexis Brezet served as the editor-in-chief of the weekly.[20]
Circulation
By the end of 1979 Le Figaro Magazine had nearly half a million readers.[21] The circulation of the magazine was 448,000 copies during the 2007–2008 period.[22] In 2009 its circulation was 424,385 copies.[23][24] In 2013 the magazine had a circulation of 431,865 copies.[25] Its circulation fell to 408,361 copies in 2014.[26]
