Abstract

[fre] Accumulation, croissance et emploi dans l'industrie française : rétrospective 1959-1974 par Bernard BILLAUDOT La compréhension des liens qui prévalaient avant la crise, entre croissance, investissement, productivité, etc., est nécessaire pour porter un diagnostic sur la situation actuelle. On cherche des lois générales qui vaudraient, à des degrés divers, pour toutes les branches industrielles. Or, qu'on examine les évolutions de 1959 à 1974, ou qu'on se penche sur le profil des indicateurs au cours de cette période, il ne se dégage pas de loi générale bien nette entre la substitution capital-travail et l'évolution du coût relatif de ces deux facteurs. Plutôt que s'être écartée d'un « sentier équilibré » vers 1965, la croissance industrielle française montre depuis la fin des années cinquante des signes de déséquilibre sur lesquels se sont greffés les chocs extérieurs des dernières années. [eng] Accumulation, Growth, and Employment in French Industry : A Retrospect 1959-1974 by Bernard BILLAUDOT In order to make a diagnosis of the current economic situation, it is necessary to understand how growth, investment, productivity, and the like, were interrelated before the crisis. The author of this article is looking for general laws which would be valid, to varying extents, for all industrial sectors. However, whether one examines trends from 1959 through 1974 or whether one studies the profile of indicators during that period, it becomes clear that there is no clear general law regarding capital-labor substitution and the evolution of the relative price of these two factors. Rather than having gone astray from a «balanced path» around 1965, French industrial growth showed, in fact, as early as the end of the fifties, signs of disequilibrium which were later exacerbated by the recent crisis. [spa] Acumulaciôn, crecimiento y empleo en la industria francesa : retrospectiva 1959-1974 por Bernard BILLAUDOT Es imprescindible tener la comprensiôn de los vfnculosque prevalîan antes de la crisis entre crecimiento, inversion, productividad, etc., para llevar a cabo un diagnôstico relativo a la situaciôn actual. Se buscan leyes générales que se pudieren aplicar, segun grados diferentes para todas las ramas industriales. Pues bien, si se examina las evoluciones de 1959 a 1974, o se considère el perfil de los indicadores en el transcurso de dicho perfodo, no es factible desprender una régla general muy clara entre substituciôn capital-trabajo y evoluciôn del coste relativo de ambos factores. Mâs pronto que haberse alejado de un « sendero equilibrado » hacia 1965, el crecimiento indus- trial francés manifiesta desde fines de los anos del 50 signos de desequilibrio a los cuales vinieron a incorporarse los choques externos de los ûltimos anos. • • - - . • . -
