  • France Background
    The World Factbook Europe :: France Introduction :: France Background: France today is one of the most modern countries in the world and is a leader among European nations. It plays an influential global role as a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, NATO, the G-8, the G-20, the EU and other multilateral organizations. France rejoined NATO's integrated military command structure in 2009, reversing de Gaulle's 1966 decision to take French forces out of NATO. Since 1958, it has constructed a hybrid presidential-parliamentary governing system resistant to the instabilities experienced in earlier, more purely parliamentary administrations. In recent decades, its reconciliation and cooperation with Germany have proved central to the economic integration of Europe, including the introduction of a common currency, the euro, in January 1999. In the early 21st century, five French overseas entities - French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, Mayotte, and Reunion - became French regions and were made part of France proper. Geography :: France Location: metropolitan France: Western Europe, bordering the Bay of Biscay and English Channel, between Belgium and Spain, southeast of the UK; bordering the Mediterranean Sea, between Italy and Spain French Guiana: Northern South America, bordering the North Atlantic Ocean, between Brazil and Suriname Guadeloupe: Caribbean, islands between the Caribbean Sea and the North Atlantic Ocean, southeast of Puerto Rico Martinique: Caribbean, island between the Caribbean Sea and North Atlantic Ocean,

    What development for Wallis and Futuna? 83 What development for Wallis and Futuna? Or, from the Tavaka Migration to the emigration to Metropolitan France Frédéric Angleviel Résumé Le développement de ce minuscule Territoire d’Outre-Mer passe par un nouvel équilibre entre les migrations de travail et l’auto-développement. Aussi, l’on étudiera tout d’abord le souhait des élus de réduire le flux migratoire vers la Nouvelle-Calédonie au bénéfice de la France métropolitaine. Puis, on analysera le rapport de la commission chargée d’envisager toutes les pistes d’auto-développement. Apparaît alors la question du développement durable des microcosmes insulaires et de l’intégration éventuelle de la religion ou de la coutume dans la réflexion politico-administrative. Abstract The development of this tiny overseas territory is conditioned by a new balance between workers’ migrations and self-development. We will thus study first of all the wish of local politicians to reduce migration flows towards New Caledonia in favour of Metropolitan France. Then, we will analyse the report of the committee set up to consider all tracks that might lead to self-development. What emerges then is the question of sustainable development in island microcosms and the possible integration of religion or of custom in political and administrative reflection.

  • Post-Colonial Trends of Income Inequality in the Oversears
    Post-colonial Trends of Income Inequality in The Overseas Departments of France∗ Yajna Govind y Please do not circulate. Abstract The existing socioeconomic disparities in the French overseas departments are widely acknowledged. However, despite the recurrent occurrence of protests and riots in these territories, there has sparsely been an in-depth long-run economic analysis on this assertion. This study estimates the evolution of income inequality in the four old- est French colonies, now overseas departments; La R´eunion,Guadeloupe, Martinique and Guyane since their decolonisation in 1946 until recent years. It is the first long-run comparative analysis of inequality at the regional level in France and is among the few that analyses all four overseas departments together. Drawing on a new income tax dataset put together in this paper, the results reveal a somewhat inverted-U shaped curve of inequality over the period. Interestingly, the top 10% income share is consis- tently higher in the overseas departments compared to the metropolis while top 1% stabilises at the same level as the metropolis in the recent period. Finally, it is worth noting that there are differences between the four territories. Moreover, the inequal- ity trends observed hide underlying cleavages. Using administrative data, I show that there is a \metropolitan" income premium in the overseas department.

  • French Overseas Territories and the Euro
    French overseas territories and the euro Nicolas de SÈZE Aurélie MARCHAND Romain BARDY Director General Studies and International Legal Affairs Directorate of the IEDOM and IEOM and European Relations Directorate The many institutional changes that have occurred in recent years or are underway in the French overseas territories have altered the dividing line, which initially was simple, between the French regime and the European regime: the French overseas “departments” (DOM) corresponded to the “outermost regions” (OR) and the French overseas “territories” (TOM) to the “overseas countries and territories” (OCT). The landscape then became more complex, with the emergence of disparities between national and European legal classifi cations. The euro has thus become the currency of overseas communities outside the territorial scope of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). This has required the adoption of a series of mechanisms for ensuring the application of the rules necessary for the functioning of Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). However, the Lisbon Treaty, which came into force in 2009, brought in greater coherence, which points to a relative simplifi cation of the monetary regime of French overseas territories. In the fi rst part of this article, we examine the regime of the French overseas territories with respect to French and European law and the problems raised by the disparities between these two legal frameworks. We then explain the solution provided by the Treaty of Lisbon. In the second part, we analyse the regime of French overseas territories from a monetary and payments perspective and their possible developments.

The Multiannual Energy Plan (programmation pluriannuelle de l’énergie, MEP), which establishes the priorities for government action in the field of energy for the next 10 years, divided into two five-year periods. It covers all energy types and all of the cornerstones of energy policy (managing energy demand, promoting renewable energies, safeguarding security of supply, controlling energy costs, developing networks in a balanced manner, etc.), and makes it possible to forge a coherent and integrated vision of the role of energies in French society and desirable future trends in this respect.

The research will focus on the city previously mentioned and will have a focus on the top industries in those cities as well as a focus on the college's interest in European Countries. France at a Glance France is one of the most modern countries in the world and is a leader among European nations. The main French industries include machinery, chemicals, automobiles, metallurgy, electronics, aeronautic, food and drink processing, as well as textiles and tourism. Agriculture remains one of the county's major industries, but the economy is highly dependent on service and manufacturing industries. The government has partially or fully privatized many large companies, including Air France, France Telecom, Renault, and Thales. However, the government maintains a strong presence in some sectors, particularly power, public transport, and defense industries.1 According to Universum - What do Students Say, the 10 most attractive employers in France are Airbus, Google, Thales, Safran, Dassault Aviation, Apple, EDF Électricité de France, Vinci, Air France, and Microsoft.2 With more than 84 million foreign tourists per year, France is the most visited country in the world and maintains the third largest income in the world from tourism.
