Despite its strategic position in Europe and its role as an instigator of revolutionary changes, France has never been an economic superpower. Jacques Attali explains why.
On FRANCE 24, Jacques Attali presents 15 episodes of "Lessons for the Future.” Airing Tuesdays at 6:55pm and Mondays at 6:10pm in Arabic, Paris time (GMT +1), the programme takes the form of three-minute “chapters” that trace 2,000 years of economic history. The programme is inspired by Attali’s best-seller "Lessons for the Future" ("Leçons pour l’avenir", Fayard 2006).
