Sébastien Charles et al., « The slowing of growth in France: an interpretation based on Thirlwall’s law », HAL-SHS : économie et finance, ID : 10.1080/01603477.2020.1794903
In this paper, we evaluate the French balance-of-paymentsconstrained growth rate and we compare it with the effectivegrowth rate. Empirically, we show that France is experiencing,simultaneously to its European integration, a substantial increasein the income elasticity of demand for imports and a collapse in thegrowth rate of its exports. Within the balance-of-paymentsconstrained growth approach, this twofold negative effect is amajor obstacle to true economic recovery and full employment.
