Tant pis ! Nos enfants paieront

Synopsis of Tant pis ! Nos enfants paieront

«Tant pis ! Nos enfants paieront» is the economic essay by François Lenglet, published by Albin Michel in paperback (240 pages, in French).

François Lenglet analyzes France's economic and social decline: the erosion of the middle class, unemployment and insecurity fuel the populist surge. He examines its causes —monetary union, the illusions of the liberal generation and political paralysis— and assesses sovereignist proposals, with guidance to avoid a darker future.

Awarded the Prix du livre d'économie 2016, the work was originally published in France in 2016.

For readers interested in French economics and politics, the debate on European monetary union and the rise of populisms.
