Society and Social Security in France

An overview is given of some salient demographic characteristics in the dramatically changing socio‐economic environment of France. Examination of social security and medical insurance provision shows how social welfare benefits have become more or less vital in the French family's maintenance of improved living standards. It is concluded that French social security services now compare favourably with provisions in other countries, but that birth‐rate problems and other social effects of rapid developmental change remain to be overcome
