Popular Front (France)

The Popular Front (Front Populaire) was an alliance of left-wing political parties that came into power in France following the 1936 elections. Its leader was Lon Blum. The Popular Front:
  • enacted the law mandating 12 days (2 weeks) each year of paid vacations for workers
  • enacted the law limiting to 40 hours the workweek (outside of overtime)
The Popular Front was actively fought by right-wing and far-right movements, which often used antisemitic slurs against Blum and other ministers.
