HORNE Secretary International Monetary Fund Washington, D. C. October 30, 1962 IX ©International Monetary Fund. Not for Redistribution This page intentionally left blank ©International Monetary Fund. Not for Redistribution ADDRESS BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA l John F. Kennedy This is my first opportunity to take part in your Annual Meetings and to welcome you here to Washington—and I do so with genuine pleasure. For you are concerned with the problems which have been among my primary concerns since the day I took office exactly 20 months ago; and in that time I have learned how vital a role is played by the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development and its affiliated institutions. The work of the International Development Association is particularly important, and this country fully sup- ports the proposal that the Executive Directors develop a program to increase its resources. The pioneering practices of the Bank—which have set a standard for others to follow—will sorely miss the services of Eugene Black. I hope he will permit us to call upon his wise counsel in the future, and that the rest of us, in pursuing the goals which he set, will increase our own efforts—including efforts in the indus- trialized countries to provide greater capital assistance to the less developed areas; efforts also in the industrialized countries to maintain at home prosperous and easily accessible markets for the products of the growing nations; efforts to reach commodity agreements and other arrangements which will help stabilize the export earnings of those nations; and, finally and most importantly, greater efforts in the developing nations themselves to mobilize effectively their own people and financial resources, and to make certain that the benefits of increased output are shared by the many and not by the few. 1 Delivered at the Second Joint Session, September 20, 1962. 1 ©International Monetary Fund. Not for Redistribution 2 SUMMARY PROCEEDINGS, 1962 In addition to these discussions on the role of the Bank, your meetings this year, as they did last year, are giving top attention to the state of the dollar—and that has been at or near the top of my own agenda throughout the last year and a half. We in the United States feel no need to be self-conscious about discussing the dollar. It is not only our national currency; it is an international currency. It plays a key role in the day-to-day func- tioning of the free world's financial framework. It is the most effective substitute for gold in the international payments system. It the dollar did not exist as an important reserve currency, it would have to be "invented"—for a volume of foreign trade already reaching $130 billion a year and growing rapidly, accom- panied by large international capital movements, cannot rest solely on a slowly growing stock of gold which now totals only $40 billion. The security of the dollar, therefore, is and ought to be of major concern to every nation here. To undermine the strength of the dollar would undermine the strength of the free world. To compete for national financial security in its narrowest sense by taking individual actions inconsistent with our common goals would in the end only impair the security of us all. I recognize that this nation has special responsibilities—as one of the leaders of the free world, as its richest and most powerful nation, as possessor of its most important currency, and as the chief banker for international trade. We did not seek all of these burdens, but we do not shrink from them. We are taking every prudent step to maintain the strength of the dollar, to improve our balance of payments, and to back up the dollar by expanding the growth of our economy. We are pledged to keep the dollar fully convertible into gold, and to back that pledge with all our resources of gold and credit. We have not impaired the value of the dollar by imposing restric- tions on its use. We have not imposed upon our citizens in peacetime any limitations on the amount of dollars they may wish to take or send abroad. We have followed a liberal policy on trade. And we have continued to supply our friends and allies with dollars and gold to rebuild their economies and defend their freedom. ©International Monetary Fund. Not for Redistribution ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT OF UNITED STATES 3 All this we have willingly done. No other country or currency has borne so many burdens. But we cannot and should not bear them all alone. I know that other countries do not expect us to bear indefinitely both the responsibilities of maintaining an international currency and, in addition, a disproportionate share of the costs of defending the free world and fostering social and economic progress in the less developed parts of the world.

  • The Birth of a Welfare State: Feminists, Midwives, Working Women and the Fight for Norwegian Maternity Leave, 1880-1940
    The Birth of a Welfare State: Feminists, Midwives, Working Women and the Fight for Norwegian Maternity Leave, 1880-1940 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Anna M. Peterson Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2013 Dissertation Committee: Birgitte Søland, Advisor Robin Judd Susan Hartmann Copyright by Anna M. Peterson 2013 Abstract This dissertation analyzes interactions between politicians, bureaucrats and diverse groups of women over the issue of maternity legislation in Norway between 1880 and 1940. It adds to a rich historiographic debate on welfare state development, women’s roles in the creation of welfare policies, the Scandinavian model of welfare and the institutionalization of women’s birth experiences. During the sixty years that this study encompasses, Norwegian maternity legislation underwent drastic and dynamic changes. From their initial implementation in 1892, maternity policies expanded in coverage, application and protections. This dissertation traces the history of this development along several lines, including local and national political processes and women’s collective and individual influence. While women’s access to maternity provisions steadily increased during this period, these achievements were fraught with struggles. Historical context shaped the types of arguments women could use to advance political debates about maternity. In many cases, these hindrances led to the creation of policies that promoted maternity legislation at the expense of certain groups of women’s autonomy. ii Women did not act as a monolithic group when it came to maternity policies. Feminists, midwives and working women actively participated in the creation of Norwegian maternity policies and adapted them to fit their particular needs and interests.

  • Internasjonal Idealisme Og Norge
    Internasjonal idealisme og Norge Utenrikspolitisk tenkning fra Justus Lipsius til Halvdan Koht Halvard Leira Hovedoppgave i Statsvitenskap, levert ved Universitetet i Oslo, Institutt for Statsvitenskap September 2002 ii Forord ”Forskning er som jazz, det kan virke individuelt, men må i siste instans være kollektivt for å swinge”. Omtrent slik formulerte min veileder det, og Iver B. Neumann skal da også være den første til å motta takk for å være del av det kollektiv som har vært til hjelp og støtte mens jeg har skrevet denne hovedoppgaven, og som har hjulpet til med at det kanskje svinger litt underveis. Han har, som veileder, arbeidsgiver, reisekamerat og venn vært sentral i at oppgaveprosessen har vært såvidt lite traumatisk. Han organiserte også en studiegruppe om norsk utenrikspolitikk, hvor en rekke gode innspill har kommet underveis. De andre deltagerne, Andreas Løvold og Nina Græger, skal ha takk for faglig og sosialt samvær. De har også lest og kommentert store deler av manus på forskjellige stadier, og for det skal de ha særlig takk. De første spede skritt i retning hovedoppgave ble tatt mens jeg tok en MSc i International Relations ved London School of Economics and Political Science. Kapittel 2 er delvis basert på Masteroppgaven fra LSE. Ved LSE hadde jeg stor glede og nytte av samtaler og seminarer med Peter Wilson. Hovedoppgaven har jeg så skrevet som studentstipendiat ved Norsk Utenrikspolitisk Institutt – NUPI. Nupister av alle slag skal ha takk for å skape et godt, dynamisk og inspirerende miljø. Spesiell takk må allikevel gå til noen enkelte. På biblioteket har Hazel, Dagfrid, Tore og Lars-Tore vært til stor hjelp med mine forespørsler etter mer eller mindre obskure tekster, og mine medstipendiater har skapt et muntert sosialt fellesskap.

Samtidig er maritim historie og norsk skipsfartshistorie et veldig spennende felt innenfor historieforskningen. Prosessen med å lete etter svar på spørsmål i bøker og kildemateriale for å se sammenhenger har vært fascinerende, og bidratt til at oppgaveskrivingen har vært veldig spennende. Det er også mange som har bidratt til å gjøre tiden jeg har arbeidet med denne oppgaven til en innholdsrik periode. Først og fremst vil jeg rette en takk til min veileder Even Lange, for konstruktive tilbakemeldinger underveis i arbeidet med oppgaven. Jeg vil også benytte anledningen til å takke Paul Håvard Skotte og Margrethe Rosenkilde ved Norges Rederiforbunds arkiv for god service, og for å ha stilt kontorplass til disposisjon.
