Pierre Mendès France as modernizer, Jean-Pierre Rioux
Throughout his political career, Pierre Mendes France wanted to modernize France. The young radical MP of the 1930s felt that economics was a genuine science. In 1938, he was one of the few Frenchmen to be familiar with Keynes. But this sound republican, faithful to the Jacobin State and Keen on a new-style democracy, refused after the war any technocratic drift. Economic social and political modernization went together ; they demanded a renewed civic education. This modernizing ambition of PMF was barely applied : deprived of power, unable to gather the left under the Fifth Republic, he saw his « modem Republic » denied. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
