Social protection in France is based on the principle of solidarity; this is used in a variety of different perceptions. The idea at first sight seems to refer to mutual support. Some would say that they apply the term in relation to “mutualist” and they put emphasis on the people insured within national schemes. Others stress that relationships of solidarity are based on an alliance. Solidarity is usually understood and in this context; in terms of common action, mutual responsibility and shared risks.

The country balances power through a legislative assembly consisting of a Senate and national assembly. Currently the right wing is in power and has been since 2002. As of 2007 the current President of France is Nicolas Sarkozy.
