    Les incidences sociales de la crise économique pour les pays de l'Union européenne : enseignements et perspectives
    in Revue de l'Union européenne/Revue du Marché Commun et de l'Union européenne , n. 533, décembre ,  2009 ,  633-639
    The economic recession has at least one advantage, i. e. reminding us that social protection is both a social shock absorber and an economic stabiliser that limit the seriousness of the recession. Social expenses are used by European Union countries and by the Union itself, in the framework of a recovery plan to help individuals falling victim to the recession, boost household consumption and thereby support business and help employment. But the recession could also be an opportunity for the European Union to give a strong push to the social Europe by setting compliance with the Human Social Rights as a major objective.
