The book. It’s been half a century that Guillaume Duval is engaged in what is called the left of government. After François Mitterrand in 1974 and 1981, the former editor of economic alternatives actively supported Lionel Jospin in 1997 and seconded François Hollande in 2012. “The policy that Emmanuel Macron has been conducting since the help of a lot of Ex-Socialists, is located at the antipodes of all for what I fought for fifty years, “says the author of the impasse. The work decrypts the reasons for this failure.

According to the former member of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council, an endogamic state aristocracy dominates the entire spectrum of government parties. She gradually seized the Socialist Party, “gradually became a party of animated executives almost exclusively by senior officials from the National School of Administration. The presidency of François Hollande, with the famous Voltaire promotion and in his entourage Direct a certain Emmanuel Macron, was the culmination, the summit of this evolution “.

The social-liberal left and the right of government, both dominated by this state aristocracy, carry out more and more convergent policies in economic and social matters, and share the same contempt for the popular classes. “Both consider that it is the supposed laziness, the cost of labor too high, the social rights that are too important and the social protection too extended from ordinary employees who are at the origin of our persistent economic difficulties.” Emmanuel Macron embodies this convergence, become a single political force, judges the author.

Faced with the authoritarianism of Emmanuel Macron, Guillaume Duval calls on French trade unionists to get closer to getting closer by strengthening: “It takes a trade union check that each employer must pay to each employee; the rules for the agreements must be strengthened; collectives by carrying the representativeness threshold to validate them beyond 50%. “

Paid Sabbagat leave

The author also militates for the introduction of German codetermination to introduce democracy into the company. Then, instead of wanting to work longer those who already have a job in a country that has 6.4 million enrolled in Pôle emploi, it invites to revive the reduction dynamics of working time.

Suggest paid sabbat leaves every five years, or for every ten years, would represent a 10% reduction in working time while responding to a social demand for additional breathing time, during the course of A professional life has become longer. Finally, the author wants the restoration of a wealth tax and the increase in the progressivity of income tax while falling under social minima.
