Christophe Guilluy

Christophe Guilluy (, born 14 October 1964 in Montreuil, Seine-Saint-Denis) is a French geographer and author.

He is known for his theory on "peripheral France" (''''), which refers to mainly rural areas of France where many members of the political elite have lost contact with working-class people. He has used that theory to explain the rise of the far-right National Front in the country.

He also theorised the reason for American support of Donald Trump by the existence of a peripheral America during an interview in the French magazine ''Le Point''. Provided by Wikipedia
