In France, low wages have historically inspired tremendous political controversy. The social and political issues at stake center on integrating the working class into society and maintaining the stability of the republican regime. A variety of federal policiesincluding high minimum wages and strong employee protectionserve to ensure that the lowwage workforce stays relatively small. LowWage Work in France examines both the benefits and drawbacks of this politically inspired system of worker protection. France's high minimum wage, which is indexed not only to inflation but also to the average increase in employee wages, plays a critical role in limiting the development of lowpaid work. Social welfare benefits and a mandatory thirtyfive hour work week also make life easier for lowwage workers. Strong employee protection is a central characteristic of the French model, but high levels of protection for employees may also be one of the causes of France's chronically high rate of unemployment. The threat of longterm unemployment may, in turn, contribute to a persistent sense of insecurity among French workers. LowWage Work in France provides a lucid analysis of how a highly regulated labor market shapes the experiences of workersfor better and for worse.
