RAYMOND ARON
Professor of Sociology at the Sorbonne and FRANÇOlS DUCHENE formerly Paris Correspondent of The Economist
1: From the Fourth to the Fifth Republic
To say that France is changing has become a cliché. Twenty years ago her economy, which had remained largely agricultural, had been stripped bare by the Germans. Today, industrialisation is provoking a revolution in her behaviour and habits. She is one of the youngest countries in Europe. She has shared in the European economic miracle of the fifties. She has her own atomic bomb, her CaraveUe jets. her television colour system. The historic monuments of Paris have been washed clean. The up-and-coming French businessman eats in self-service restaurants. One French-man in five has his own car. The French leadership of the haute couture is challenged.

Though you are young When to her lute

Come, you pretty false-eyed wanton
Shall I come, sweet love
There is a garden in her face
