After the war, French governments of all political stripes sought to modernize and develop the country's economy, with the goal of matching the advanced economy of the United States. The French government implemented dirigisme, a policy of [[File:Regulationism.png]] [[Regulationism|strong government intervention in the economy]], to achieve this goal. This policy approach was accompanied by the development of [[File:Merit.png]] [[Meritocracy]] and [[File:Technocracy.png]] [[Technocracy]], with elite state-trained administrators and engineers taking leadership roles in industry.
During the 1945-1975 period, known as the "Glorious Thirty," France experienced significant yearly economic growth (5.1% on average) and a population boom. Dirigisme was supported by [[File:French_Republican_Party.png]] [[Conservatism|conservative]] governments led by [[File:Gaullismicon2.png]] [[Gaullism|Charles de Gaulle]] and [[File:Udr_france.png]] [[Gaullism|Georges Pompidou]], and seen as a compromise between American policies of minimal government intervention and Soviet policies of total state control. In 1981, Socialist president [[File:Mitterrand.png]] [[Social Democracy|François Mitterrand]] was elected and pursued dirigisme policies, including nationalizing industries and [[File:Bankocracy.png]] banks. However, economic difficulties and inflation led the government to abandon dirigisme in 1983 and adopt austerity measures instead. Dirigisme has not been widely supported by subsequent French governments, though some elements of it remain in place.
