Le commerce extérieur français à la dérive

Abstract

Cet article a pour objet de faire le point sur l’évolution récente du commerce extérieur français et d’expliquer le décrochage des pertes de parts de marché françaises. Dans une première partie, nous décrivons l’ampleur de la dégradation du commerce extérieur français. Nous montrons qu’au sein de la zone euro, l’exception est en réalité plutôt allemande que française, et que la divergence des deux économies ne s’explique pas par leur spécialisation géographique ou sectorielle mais par une supériorité allemande en matière de compétitivité. Dans une deuxième partie, nous analysons différents indicateurs de compétitivité-prix et hors prix ex-ante afin d’éclairer ces divergences de performances, et nous montrons que les modélisations classiques ne parviennent plus à expliquer l’évolution des parts de marché françaises à partir de 2000. Enfin, dans une dernière partie, nous montrons que l’introduction de nouveaux indicateurs dans la modélisation des exportations permet d’en expliquer le décrochage du début des années 2000 : dans un contexte de concurrence accrue sur le marché mondial, les entreprises françaises ont souffert d’un déficit en innovation et de la résurgence de politiques non-coopératives au sein de la zone euro.
