Abstract

Recent developments in French labour market policy challenge conventional means of evaluating policy success. While policy elites have been creative in fashioning different job creation and training programs, they have failed to stem the inexorable rise in unemployment. While the Ministry of Labour has succeeded in reorienting labour market policy from so-called passive to active measures, the quality of new jobs has declined. While both left and right have campaigned for high wage, high skilled employment, state programs have contributed to a further destabilization of labour markets.
