    • Abstract:
      This article discusses the conflict between Maurice Taylor, a U.S. businessman and chairman and chief executive officer (CEO) of Titan International, and French minister Arnaud Montebourg. According to the author, this conflict was small-time compared to other Franco-American clashes. The conflict began when Taylor commented in a letter sent to Montebourg about the work culture in France. Taylor was contacted by Montebourg regarding acquisition of Goodyear's plant in France.
