Self-employment and the transformation of the wage earning society: the spanish and french reforms
Abstract
The article compares the self-employment reform process put in place in Spain and France. Firstly, we analyze the contribution of the two States to this process, showing how new employment statuses favored by the reform turn out a paradoxical and equivocal independent-dependent status. From this comparative approach we conclude that the public action is not triggering but following a transformation process already in progress. This process aims at a deeper transformation of the wage earning society that could explain changes registered in the Spanish and French self-employment.Downloads
