上任以来,马克龙励志改革打破制约经济发展桎梏,在劳动力市场、失业保险、财政税收、能源转型领域采取一系列改革措施,宪法、紧急医疗保健系统、国铁、教育等领域的改革也被提上日程,同时积极推动欧元区和多边体系改革。以“开源节流”为思路,马克龙经济改革成效显著,法国经济出现了不少亮点,但过程中难免触动部分民众利益。2018年底,“黄背心”运动示威持续,随着民意支持率急速下跌,马克龙迫于压力放缓改革步伐并向民众妥协,其缺乏底层政治资本、身边团队缺乏主政经验弊端显现。结合全国大辩论,马克龙能否妥善处理民众不满,增信释疑,在短期内为5月欧洲议会选举争取有利局面,保持经济改革的连续性,才是重拾法国竞争力、谋求经济持续增长的关键。
<<President Macron,determined to break up obstacles to the economic development by reforms,has taken a series of reforms,since taking office,including labor market,unemployment insurance,taxation,and energy transformation. The reforms in the constitution,emergency medical care system,national railway,and education have also been put on the agenda. At the same time,he was actively promoting the reform of the euro zone and the multilateral system. Based upon the principle of “increasing income and reducing expenditure”,Macron’s economic reform has achieved remarkable results. The French economy has seen many bright spots,but in the process it has touched upon inevitably some people’s interests. At the end of 2018,the “Yellow vest” movement came in resolutely. With the rapid decline in ratio of public opinion pool,Macron was under huge pressure to slow down the pace of reform and compromise with the people. He lacked the underlying political capital and his team lacked ruling experiences. In combination with the “Grand National Debate”,Macron wanted to be able to properly handle public dissatisfaction,increase trust and dispel doubts,and strive for a favorable situation for the European Parliament elections in May in the short term,and maintain the continuity of economic reforms,in order to regain French competitiveness and sustained economic growth.
