French reforms to squeeze working class: Analyst
Press TV has interviewed Paolo Raffone, the secretary general of CIPI foundation in Pristina, and Anne Giudicelli, the founder of TERR(o)RISC council, a consultancy firm on security risk, from Paris, to discuss the wave of strikes and demonstrations across France against government plans to reform the country’s labor law.
Raffone believes that the French government has chosen the easiest path towards restructuring its financial system, which is changing the labor law simply by squeezing the working class.
Having a well-protected working class was possible after the World War II because of the economic cycle of that time, Raffone said, but in the late 70s the cycle was inverted.
“[Since that time] some countries have gone through tremendous changes like Britain. France didn’t undergo a reform and now it is paying the price,” he argued.
Meanwhile, Giudicelli asserts that the current social dissatisfaction in France has many different roots and the new labor law just has caused the rage to come to the surface.
“Regarding the tradition of strike in France, it is very difficult to implement any kind of reform. It is 15 years that each government whether left-side or right-side are trying to improve the French system which can fit to the new political, economic and geopolitical needs,” Giudicelli underscored.
