Bad policies and vested interests that exploit the rhetoric of \"solidarity\" and the specter of globalization have prevented necessary changes from being effected. Making frequent comparisons with the U.S., U.K., Canada, Scandinavia, Germany and the Netherlands, Smith argues that change need not follow the inegalitarian U.S. or British paths in order to lead to a more balanced French society.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51939403596064,"sku":"NEW0521605202","price":23.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/france-in-crisis-welfare-inequality-and-globalization-since-1980-0521605202","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
