Extractions: Overview The constitution of the Fifth Republic was approved by public referendum on September 28, 1958. It greatly strengthened the authority of the executive in relation to Parliament. Under the constitution, presidents have been elected directly for a 7-year term since 1958. Beginning in 2002, the term of office is now 5 years. Presidential arbitration assures regular functioning of the public powers and the continuity of the state. The president names the prime minister, presides over the cabinet, commands the armed forces, and concludes treaties. The president may submit questions to a national referendum and can dissolve the National Assembly. In certain emergency situations, the president may assume full powers. Besides the president, the other main component of France's executive branch is the cabinet. Led by a prime minister, who is the head of government, the cabinet is composed of a varying number of ministers, ministers-delegate, and secretaries of state. Parliament meets for one 9-month session each year. Under special circumstances an additional session can be called by the president. The most distinctive feature of the French judicial system is that it is divided into the Constitutional Council and the Council of State. The Constitutional Council examines legislation and decides whether it conforms to the constitution. Unlike the U.S. Supreme Court, it considers only legislation that is referred to it by Parliament, the prime minister, or the president; moreover, it considers legislation before it is promulgated. The Council of State has a separate function from the Constitutional Council and provides recourse to individual citizens who have claims against the administration. The Ordinary Courtsincluding specialized bodies such as the police court, the criminal court, the correctional tribunal, the commercial court, and the industrial courtsettle disputes that arise between citizens, as well as disputes that arise between citizens and corporations. The Court of Appeals reviews cases judged by the Ordinary Courts.
FRANCE: Government Minister Thanks Union Leader

http://www.greenleft.org.au/back/2003/544/544p19c.htm

Extractions: Online troops home poll BY MURRAY SMITH Reporting Fillon's statement on June 17, the daily Le Monde Thibault could probably have done without this poisoned gift from Fillon. He's having enough trouble explaining to many of his members why he refused to call for a general strike, instead adopting a tactic of marching them up to the top of the hill and then marching them down again, not once but several times. And if Thibault will now have to face serious opposition within the CGT, rival CFDT union federation leader Francois Chereque, who blatantly sold out the movement in mid-May, is likely to see tens of thousands of members leave his organisation. The mobilisations on June 19 were not as massive as on previous days of action. Nevertheless, 350,000 people across France (50,000 in Paris) took part in militant and defiant demonstrations. The pension reform will now be adopted by the French parliament, but that won't be the end of the matter. It will have to be applied sector by sector and opposition will continue. The climate in schools is such that fresh conflicts can flare up at any time.

http://www.greenleft.org.au/back/2004/577/577p16c.htm

Extractions: Online troops home poll Murray Smith, Paris The verdict in the first round of the French regional elections on March 21 was unambiguous. The electorate massively rejected the right-wing government led by Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin. Parties supporting the government won just 34% of the votes (down from 42.5% in the 2002 general election that brought it to power). The fact that many ministers headed the government lists in the regions only underlined the scale of the defeat. The Socialist Party and its Green and Communist allies, standing together or separately, got just over 40% of the vote. The radical anti-capitalist lists of the Revolutionary Communist League (LCR) and Lutte Ouvriere (Workers Struggle, LO) got 4.58%. The National Front (FN) of Jean-Marie Le Pen got 14.7% and dissident lists took the far-right total to more than 16%. This was less than Le Pen got in the presidential election in 2002, but slightly up on the last regional elections in 1998. Overall the FN lost some ground in its strongholds but progressed elsewhere. The results of the LCR-LO lists were slightly better than in 1998, when the two organisations ran separately. They were nevertheless disappointing and well down on the 2002 presidential election. Polls had indicated a score of up to 7.5% nationally, and 8% in the Parisian region, (where they scored 4%). An entusiastic campaign included public meetings filled to overflowing.

Extractions: Reference Desk Sponsored Links TripAdvisor Encyclopedia France Since the Revolution of 1789, France has had an extremely uniform and centralized administration, although constitutional changes in 2003 now permit greater autonomy to the nation's regions and departments. The country is governed under the 1958 constitution, which established the Fifth French Republic and reflected the views of Charles de Gaulle . It provides for a strong president, directly elected for a five-year term (changed from a seven-year term in 2000). A premier and cabinet, appointed by the president, are responsible to the national assembly, but they are subordinate to the president. Parliament consists of the national assembly and the senate. Deputies to the assembly are elected for five-year terms from single-member districts. Senators are elected for nine-year terms from each department by an electoral college composed of the deputies, district council members, and municipal council members from the department. Parliament is solely responsible for legislation regarding civil, fiscal, and penal law, electoral law, civil liberties, the budget, and amnesty and labor laws. The president has power of appointment of the prime minister, the executive ministers, high civil servants, and judges. The president presides over the council of ministers, is the commander in chief of the armed forces, and has power to dissolve the national assembly. Major parties include the Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), the Socialist Party (PS), the National Front (FN), the Union for French Democracy (UDF), the Communist party (PCF), and the Green party.

First Prev [ 1 Next Last With a GDP of $1.4 trillion (1.4 T$), France is the fourth-largest Western industrialized economy. It has substantial agricultural resources, a large industrial base, and a highly skilled work force. A dynamic services sector accounts for an increasingly large share of economic activity (72% in 1997) and is responsible for nearly all job creation in recent years. GDP growth averaged 2% between 1994 and 1998, with 3% recorded in 2000. Government economic policy aims to promote investment and domestic growth in a stable fiscal and monetary environment. Creating jobs and reducing the high unemployment rate has been a top priority. The Government of France has successfully reduced a double-digit unemployment rate in excess of 10% to 8%-9%, recently. France joined 10 other European Union countries in adopting the euro as its currency in January 1999. Henceforth, monetary policy will be set by the

Extractions: 31 March 2004 Use this version to print Send this link by email Email the author The government of Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin and President Jacques Chirac suffered a devastating defeat in the second round of regional elections held on Sunday, March 28. From the total of 22 French regions, the ruling parties UMP (Union for a Popular Movement) and UDF (Union for the French Democracy) were only able to retain control in Alsace. Before the elections, these parties controlled a total of 14 regions. The election result continues a trend that became evident during the recent Spanish parliamentary elections: working people used their vote to teach a lesson to their right-wing government, indicating a readiness to resist widespread cutbacks. The extreme-right National Front (NF), which ran candidates in a total of 17 regions for the second round, gained around 13 percent of the vote. Other parties were excluded from the second round after failing to overcome the 10 percent hurdle in the first round.

http://www.wsws.org/articles/2003/jan2003/fran-j10.shtml

Extractions: 10 January 2003 Use this version to print Send this link by email Email the author Press reports indicate nervousness in official circles over the limits placed on governmental initiatives by the weak economy and the difficulty of hiding the significance of the austerity measures from the population, under conditions of rising working class discontent. The basic goals and methods of the Raffarin government have been shown in its reform of Unedic, the unemployment insurance plan. It increased the taxes workers pay to support the plan, increased the taxes the unemployed pay towards their own retirement from 1.2 percent to 3 percent, increased the retirement age for the unemployed from 55 to 57, and decreased the length of coverage for workers over 50 to 36 from 45 months. Working class militancy is once again on the rise in France. November and December saw mass demonstrations and strikes in the energy, telecommunications, railway, trucking and education sectors.
