The parameters of a national minimum hourly wage
Both academic and political debates over the minimum wage generally focus on the minimum wage rate. However, the minimum wage is a complex institution composed of a wide variety of parameters. In this note, I show that nominal rates provide a very crude picture of minimal compensation and of actual employer cost by the comparison of the French, British and US Federal national minimum hourly wages. The extent of their coverage, enforcement procedures, and how the "wage" is defined differ widely between countries. Taking these parameters into account can even alter the comparative hierarchy based on nominal rates alone.

Face à la désindustrialisation, quelle stratégie industrielle ?
In: Esprit, Volume Février, Issue 2, p. 86-92
Résumé La désindustrialisation est-elle une pente irrésistible ou un argument politique ? Comment y répondre autrement que par des discours ? Plutôt que de se focaliser sur un modèle industriel ancien, il nous faut adopter une perspective plus large, et anticiper les domaines dans lesquels la France est en mesure d'innover et d'exporter, comme la recherche ou la santé.

France's 35-Hour Workweek
In: Dissent: a journal devoted to radical ideas and the values of socialism and democracy, Volume 54, Issue 4, p. 29-35
ISSN: 0012-3846
Examines the short-term results of the legislation imposing a 35-hour work week in France, la reduction du temps de travail (RTT), addressing the implications for the right & the socialists. The history behind RTT is recounted, along with its two-stage implementation, ie, Aubry I & II, & concomitant labor negotiations. The laws' impacts are considered, highlighting the inequalities that were generated by inconsistent application of the RTT & concluding that the laws neither proved miraculous as proponents hoped or disastrous as opponents predicted. It is argued that the Aubry laws shed light on the lack of unions capable of innovative negotiations, thus requiring state intervention & consequent legislative & regulatory complexity. Attention is given to the 2003/04 right-wing "Fillon adjustments," which preserved the 35-hour work week but abolished controversial incentives. It is contended that the right has won a genuine ideological victory on work while the socialists remain paralyzed & unable to present an alternative program. D. Edelman
