摘要

President François Mitterrand was elected on May 10, 1981. The recovery envisaged by François Mitterrand is Keynesian with Soviet structural overtones: “Social growth will be based on the dynamism of the public sector.” For energy, what is proposed is a break with France's nuclear tradition in favor of coal. His Prime Minister Pierre Mauroy pursued a three-pronged economic policy aimed at: stimulating the economy to improve income redistribution; combating unemployment through a reduction in legal working hours and an increase in public sector employment; and expanding State control through nationalizations.
