Jean-Marcel Jeanneney
Out of a Job
For the past twenty years France has been slipping into unemployment. This evil, which is becoming more and more serious, is leading our country into decline, and is threatening our democracy. After having described the difficulties resulting from the new world environment, the author discards the false solutions, such as intensified inflation, devaluation or protectionism. He then outlines the daring, but realistic policies he sees as necessary not only in France, but also for a more dynamic European Union. An economist, Jean-Marcel Jeanneney was a minister for seven years under the presidency of General de Gaulle. In 1980, he created the French Economic Research Institute, which he ran until 1990.

Disorientated Finance
This book analyses the events that shook French and international finance during the last twenty-five years of the twentieth century. In a straightforward style, eschewing all clichés, the author shows why Pierre Bérégovy was instrumental in bringing about the revolution in French finance, how Edouard Balladurs closest followers created a caste which is now in control of upper management, and how they prevented the creation of pension funds in other words, how they prevented the realisation of the Gaullist dream of participation and finally, how and why U.S. banks have managed to take over financial control of large French businesses. Antoine Jeancourt-Galignani is now chairman of the board of directors of GECINA.
