Abstract: Abstract French economic performance had been very satisfactory until the mid 1970s; since that date, however, we have entered a period of much slower economic growth, not only in absolute terms but compared to the US benchmark. Table 1 gives the gap between growth rates of GDP/capita for France and the US. The growth rate for France has been lower than the US in all of the three subperiods 1980–1990, 1990–2000 and 2000–2004.
