A particularly differentiated and institutionalized type of State developed in France throughout its history. Its strength rests both on the imposing bureaucratic machine it knew how to build, as well as on the distance it was able to keep from different social peripheries, diverse interest groups, and local influences. Faced with this type of State, the French workers movement since the end of the nineteenth century has adopted either a strategy of self-organization outside the State or a strategy of occupying and utilizing this same State according to its particular interests. These two great tendencies run through contemporary French social and political history. From Proudhon to anarcho-syndicalism, the workers movement has attempted to organize itself through mutual-benefit societies, cooperatives, and similar types of specific associations
