The Social

The Social tells the story of social security in France by doing justice to all its forgotten heroes who fought for its establishment after Wold War II and to an ongoing utopia still benefiting 65 million French. Τhrough expert analysis and recollections of participants in this great social change, a non-negotiable truth shines: The creation of today’s safety net was pushed for by union militants and members of the far-left in the face of opposition from conservatives.
