After 20 years of trade‐union crisis, some new factors seem to be at work. SUD (Solidaires, unitaires, democratiques) is the most innovative grouping to have appeared on the union scene in recent years. Born in 1989 in the Post Office sector, it has risen to become the second most popular union at professional elections in France Telecom and the Post Office. SUD is involved in the G10 (‘Group of Ten’), which provides a common platform for certain independent unions. SUD favours new modes of intervention, a kind of ‘mobilisation unionism’ reminiscent of the CFDT's ‘autogestionnaire’ phase in the 1970s. Although still relatively marginal, SUD unions have been launched in the private sector. Despite SUD's limitations, it is possible to argue that these new forms of activism reflect the renewal of revolutionary trade‐unionism in France.
