This paper examines the history of the French economic system from 1981 and shows how it has evolved into the system of today.

From the Paper:

"Irrespective of continuous reforms and privatization during the last two decades, the government continues to regulate a large portion of economic behavior. This is no more confined to the field of health care and education but also economic activities like banking and energy generation and distribution. Railways are apparently state monopoly and the telecom sector has maximum state equity. The government economic policy has the objective of fostering investment and growth in a stable monetary and fiscal regime."
