Abstract

La France se caractérise-t-elle par un taux de syndicalisation particulièrement faible par rapport aux autres pays européens ? C'est ce que suggère la littérature comparative sur les syndicats. Dans cette note, nous remettons en cause cette idée et traçons une autre histoire de l'évolution du taux de syndicalisation en France. En effet, les estimations actuelles reposent sur une double extrapolation faite à partir des données de cotisations des deux principaux syndicats : la Confédération générale du travail (CGT) et la Confédération française démocratique du travail (CFDT) et des résultats des élections professionnelles. À partir d'enquêtes représentatives de la population française, notamment des sondages et des enquêtes internationales, nous estimons que le taux de syndicalisation a été sous-estimé jusqu'à la fin des années 1970.
