Summary/Abstract: The author analyzes the attitude of the French daily Le Monde toward the events that took place in Croatia during December, 1971. On the basis of thirty articles from that newspaper he examines how the Le Monde's reporters evaluated the relations between Croatia and the Yugoslav federal bodies. In conclusion, he shows that one of the leading French newspapers had a positive view of Yugoslavia and its system of «socialism with a human face».
