FRENCH SOCIETY,
AS THE FRENCH TELL IT.

French social issues covered the way French media covers them
A French strike is not a French strike the way an American strike is an American strike. The vocabulary is different, the legal framework is different, the cultural stakes are different.
This section covers the social stories that define French public life — labour, protest, education, healthcare, demographics. In French. With the nuance that keeps them recognizable.
