Abstract

Créé par une loi du 1er décembre 2008, le revenu de solidarité active (RSA remplace depuis le 1er juin 2009 deux minima sociaux, le revenu minimum d'insertion (RMI) et l'allocation de parent isolé (API), sur les neuf que comptait le système français. Il est conçu pour aider les bénéficiaires en les incitant à l'activité professionnelle et il est particulièrement destiné aux travailleurs pauvres. L'article fait concisément le point sur la réforme. Il conclut que le RSA rectifie le RMI et l'API, qui étaient défectueux, mais que la réforme lui avait assigné le rôle plus ambitieux d'unifier le système entier des minima sociaux et, que, de ce point de vue, elle reste toujours à entreprendre. Un document de presentation générale est placé en annexe. Il ajoute des données numériques et souligne que les effectifs du RSA progressent moins vite que prévu en 2008-2009.
