In this interview with Arnaud Teyssier, Alain Supiot shows that there exists a French social model (in Fernand Braudel\u2019s sense) and that its philosophical and anthropological foundations \u2014 and hence its specific character by comparison, for example, with the English model (omnipotence of the individual) or the German (omnipotence of society) \u2014 are often forgotten. He reminds us that this French model, inspired by a \u201cmoral and social idealism\u201d \u2014 the idealism of political equality \u2014 has been compromised by \u201cwage subordination\u201d, which itself induced the state to intervene to establish a \u201csocial citizenship that represents an extension of political citizenship\u201d.\n\nHe stresses, however, that the social model in question relies on the self-organizational and mutual-aid capacities of individuals, on a mutualist tradition which the state is there to underpin not to manage. Moreover, it cannot be subject exclusively to economic and market laws, which explains the importance of legislation to provide a regulatory framework. Hence, \u201csocial security was not conceived in France as a state service to shore up the market economy, but as an extension of the principles of mutual aid to the entire nation.\u201d\n\nRecalling those principles, and warning against the immanent laws of a market that has become all-encompassing and against a dismantling of the French social model \u2014 though not excluding the possibility of international solidarity \u2014 Alain Supiot shows the dangers in the public policies that have been pursued for the last 30 years, and how the ecological, economic, social and health risks we face make it necessary to restore meaning to political action.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
