Abstract: For three years under Pompidou’s presidency, Chaban Delmas had to restart the process of modernising and industrialising French economy whilst altogether trying to put a ceiling to the inflationary trends spurred by the “May 68” events and the large easiness in wages increases and in budgetary expenses which were intended to appease the social unrest. But this policy of balance had to be forged and completed by the Chaban team at the Prime Minister’s offices in face of the influence of the President Pompidou’s cabinet, much more in touch with economic affairs than under de Gaulle, and of the power of upcoming ministry of Finance Giscard d’Estaing. The achievements are scrutinised topic by topic.
