To rebuild a strong economy, and rebuild a national industrial production (the best way to reduce unemployment), several ways are possible. The observation of different methods used by foreign nations provides insights and solutions to this problem, the need for a revival production.
is the pragmatic approach of Arnaud Montebourg , and elected local Saone-et-Loire that was a direct witness of the decline of our industrial areas, said that only innovation and support of the public can meet the challenge of new productivity.
Economic Pragmatism
South Korea is an instructive example (1): this country, the same size as France, three times more engineers than her! Its population has a high level of education, and resources invested in research and development are greater than one-third those of France. The Korean Samsung group in 2010 became the biggest technology company in the world (2).
Similarly, United States, home of liberalism, the main technological university campuses have public funding to more than 70% (3). These two nations dominate in innovative and new technologies. Around the world, the industrial base of a country is the result of strong partnerships between public money and private funds in which the state usually provides the majority share of resources.
This massive investment into research and new technologies is necessary for industrial creativity is carrying a renewed prosperity.
The key innovation is now owned by small structures, between 200 and 500 employees, but the development time of their technology is becoming longer. So on this time factor Arnaud Montebourg intends to play in proposing the creation of an investment fund backed National Savings French, one of the largest in the world, and a third is in sleep contracts of life insurance (4).
Everything must be done to drain the private saving to innovation, to support the new companies without waiting for a quick return on investment, as is the case now. Innovative sectors need a non-short-term profitability to grow, and the State must reposition itself as "the insurer risk long" to liberate companies from their dependence on financial markets.
Towards a more virtuous company
In return, the company must do more "virtuous" by indexing their wages on productivity. The listed companies should and do go up to a third employee representatives on their boards of directors. The pension shareholder shall cease to seek the greatest profit at the expense of employees, and the time has come to build the alliance captains of industry and employees, shareholders and cons of guardianship indecent profit (5). But
renewal must be accompanied productive as a new way to consume more citizen. New behaviors emerge, more environmentally friendly, less wasteful and more technology, which however do not yet all of our citizens (6). Our new society Montebourg analysis, should look at free software that every user can add. In this economy of the contribution, there more finished product, and consumption is more passive.
Montebourg estimated the cost of re-industrialization of France at 80 billion euros per year, "the equivalent of large debt (7).
This new creative interaction between the producer and the consumer demanding, then emerges a new social contract, where the citizen has the first place.
Based on the book by Arnaud Montebourg " Ideas and Dreams "

The particular research is funded at more than 80% by the federal government. (MIT Manifesto for the French, p. 6, 2004 )

This restores power of "consumer-" itself induced a reactivity of brands that use these new features of the consumer to maintain an increasingly close relationship with him, and changes more rapidly than in the past, goods and services proposed.
