Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : Since the law of 1 July 1972 against racism, the juridical apparatus relative to discrimination has continued to acquire new provisions, extending the list of unlawful acts and illegitimate grounds for discrimination. This now appears to be complete. On its own, however, it does not constitute an anti-discrimination policy; for we should not forget the limits of this tool.
