The Question of Social-Corporatism

Government by “corporatism,” or “social corporatization,” is on the rise. There seems to be a diffuse interconnection that would make sense of a diverse series of facts and decisions: non-payment of unemployment compensation tax by civil servants, partial fuel tax reduction for truckers (total for taxi drivers), retrocession of various sectoral advantages for employers, etc. Group strategies are developing and the lawn of the Matignon Hotel has become the emblematic spot where these groups post their successes. It is hard to see what is going on exactly so long as one speaks of corporatism in general. What is globally called corporatism in fact breaks apart into phenomena quite different in nature, scope, and origin
