For Garthine Acknowledgements If I remember correctly, I began writing this book some seventeen years ago. Already in the late 1990s, the volume of scholarly work on conservatism and the right was enormous, and since then it has increased dramatically. I have tried to keep up with it, and a book like this is especially reliant on the work of others. Indeed, my debt to some historians’ work goes beyond conventional acknowledgement in footnotes: the work of Michel Dobry, Philippe Levillain, Gilles Le Béguec, Nicholas Roussellier, François Monnet, and David Bensoussan, to name just some, has been especially infl uential. Inevitably, I have sometimes disagreed with their interpretations, and to avoid over-complication of the narrative I have not always made that explicit. As for those whose research has received insuffi cient attention, I hope that they will under- stand that one has to stop at some point—the necessity of doing so makes me all the more conscious that this is a history of the right in the Th ird Republic and Vichy— not the history. Over the years, I have also received help from a great number of institutions, scholars, librarians, archivists, and friends. I gratefully acknowledge fi nancial sup- port from the Arts and Humanities Research Council (Research Leave Scheme, AH/F003048/1), the British Academy (Small Personal Research Grants, 1995, 2003, 2007), and the Scouloudi Foundation in association with the Institute of Historical Research (Research Awards, 2000, 2007). I have also received generous fi nancial support from the School of History, Archaeology, and Religion at Cardiff University, and special thanks are due to my colleagues in the History department, who covered for me during periods of research leave. I owe a debt to librarians and archivists at the Bibliothèque nationale de France and Archives nationales. Th e late Monsieur Gilles de La Rocque kindly allowed me to consult the Fonds La Rocque, and the donors of the Fonds Ribot and Fonds Deschanel gave me permission to consult those papers, all held at the Archives nationales. I would like to thank Christopher Wheeler at Oxford University Press for his patient support for this project from its inception, and Emma Barber for her patient editorial work. I would like to thank Orla Smyth, Chloé Faucillon, and Th omas Daum for the hospitality they provided in Paris. I have learned much from my postgraduate students at Cardiff , in particular Chris Millington, Mark Pitchford, and Joe Starkey, and from presentations to several seminars at the École des hautes etudes en sciences sociales in Paris. Ian Dennis drew the maps, and was as patient as ever with my frequent alterations. A number of colleagues and friends have read parts of the manuscript: Magali Della Sudda, Lloyd Bowen, Jackie Clarke, Julian Jackson, Chris Millington, Mary Vincent, Garthine Walker, and Julian Wright. Special thanks are due to Lloyd Bowen, Jackie Clarke, Karen Adler, and Laura Downs. Over innumerable lunches and dinners, in Cardiff Acknowledgements vii and Paris, I have learned an enormous amount from them, and this book bears the imprint of their ideas. Lastly, I am enormously thankful to Joe and Emily Passmore for putting up with the fi nancial drain resulting from frequent trips to France, and above all my wife, Garthine Walker. She has followed this project from its inception, and is an inspiration as a person, colleague, and historian. This page intentionally left blank Contents Abbreviations x Maps xiii 1.

  • A Positive Effect of Political Dynasties: the Case of France's 1940 Enabling
    PRELIMINARY VERSION: PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE OR CITE WITHOUT THE AUTHORS’ PERMISSION A Positive Effect of Political Dynasties: the case of France’s 1940 enabling act* Jean Lacroixa, Pierre-Guillaume Méona, Kim Oosterlincka,b Abstract The literature on political dynasties in democracies usually considers dynasties as a homogenous group and points out their negative effects. By contrast, we argue that political dynasties may differ according to their origin and that democratic dynasties - dynasties whose founder was a defender of democratic ideals - show a stronger support for democracy than other dynasties. This conclusion is based on the analysis of the vote by the French parliament on July 10, 1940 of an enabling act that granted full power to Marshall Philippe Pétain, thereby ending the Third French republic and aligning France with Nazi Germany. Using individual votes and newly-collected data from the biographies of the members of parliament, we observe that members of a democratic dynasty had a 7.6 to 9.0 percentage points higher probability to oppose the act than members of other political dynasties or elected representatives belonging to no political dynasty. Suggestive evidence points to the pro-democracy environment of democratic dynastic politicians as the main driver of this effect. Keywords: Autocratic reversals, democratic dynasties, voting behavior. JEL classification: D72, H89, N44. *We thank Toke Aidt, Francois Facchini, Katharina Hofer, and Tommy Krieger as well as participants at the Interwar Workshop - London School of Economics and Political Science, at the Meeting of the European Public Choice Society in Rome, at the Silvaplana Workshop in Political Economy, and at the Beyond Basic Questions Workshop for comments and suggestions.

    PATHS TO SUCCESS, PATHS TO FAILURE: HISTORICAL TRAJECTORIES TO DEMOCRATIC STABILITY By ADAM BILINSKI A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2015 1 © 2015 Adam Bilinski 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Throughout the work on this project, I received enormous help from a number of people. The indispensable assistance was provided by my advisor Michael Bernhard, who encouraged me to work on the project since I arrived at the University of Florida. He gave me valuable and timely feedback, and his wide knowledge of the European political history and research methods proved irreplaceable in this regard. He is otherwise a warm, humble and an understanding person, a scholar who does not mind and even appreciates when a graduate student is critical toward his own ideas, which is a feature whose value cannot be overestimated. I received also valuable assistance from members of my dissertation committee: Benjamin Smith, Leonardo A. Villalon, Beth Rosenson and Chris Gibson. In particular, Ben Smith taught me in an accessible way about the foundational works in Political Science, which served as an inspiration to write this dissertation, while Chris Gibson offered very useful feedback on quantitative research methods. In addition, I received enormous help from two scholars at the University of Chicago, where this research project passed through an adolescent stage. Dan Slater, my advisor, and Alberto Simpser helped me transform my incoherent hypotheses developed in Poland into a readable master’s thesis, which I completed in 2007.

  • Fight for the Right: the Quest for Republican Identity in the Postwar Period
    FIGHT FOR THE RIGHT: THE QUEST FOR REPUBLICAN IDENTITY IN THE POSTWAR PERIOD By MICHAEL D. BOWEN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2006 Copyright 2006 by Michael D. Bowen ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project is the culmination of many years of hard work and dedication, but it would not have been possible without assistance and support from a number of individuals along the way. First and foremost, I have to thank God and my parents for all that they have done for me since before I arrived at the University of Florida. Dr. Brian Ward, whose admiration for West Ham United is only surpassed by his love for the band Gov’t Mule, was everything I could have asked for in an advisor. Dr. Charles Montgomery pushed and prodded me to turn this project from a narrow study of the GOP to a work that advances our understanding of postwar America. Dr. Robert Zieger was a judicious editor whose suggestions greatly improved my writing at every step of the way. Drs. George Esenwein and Daniel Smith gave very helpful criticism in the later stages of the project and helped make the dissertation more accessible. I would also like to thank my fellow graduate students in the Department of History, especially the rest of “Brian Ward’s Claret and Blue Army,” for helping make the basement of Keene-Flint into a collegial place and improving my scholarship through debate and discussion.

Paris: Editions du Seuil, 2001. 458 pp. Tables, notes, bibliography, index. 24,39 € (pb.). ISBN 2-02- 034036-4. Review by Vicki Caron, Cornell University. With the proliferation of studies on popular opinion under Vichy, it was inevitable that the role of the parliament, which overwhelming voted to transfer full powers to Marshal Philippe Pétain on 10 July 1940 by a vote of 570 to 80, with 20 abstentions, would attract renewed attention. While the eighty parliamentarians who voted against full powers, together with the twenty-seven deputies and senators who set sail for North Africa on the Massilia to continue the battle against the Nazis, have been hailed as résistants of the first hour, those who voted in favor of full powers have been condemned either as outright collaborators or as attentists willing to sacrifice the values of republicanism and democracy in the false hope of securing a place for France in the new European order. Olivier Wieviorka's new book provides a welcome opportunity to reassess the validity of this dualistic interpretation. By using the recently opened dossiers of the Jury of Honor, the panel established by the provisional government of the Republic in 1945 to determine whether politicians who had supported Vichy deserved exoneration--and thus the right to resume political office--on the basis of subsequent resistance activities, Wieviorka seeks to achieve two goals.

    Identity in a Divided Province: The Folklorists of Lorraine, 1860–1960 David Hopkin 6217 FRENCH HISTORICAL STUDIES 23:4 / sheet97 of 210 The original Lorraine came into existence at the Treaty of Verdun in 843, which divided the Carolingian Empire. Its boundaries have been frequently redrawn since then, as the original Middle Kingdom of the Franks was fought over, occupied, and divided by its neighbors, but Lorraine survived, in the reduced form of an independent duchy, al- most until the Revolution.1 However, from the Constituent Assembly’s partition of France into departments in 1790 until after the Second World War, the term Lorraine was only a geographical expression: the four departments of the Moselle, Meuse, Meurthe, and the Vosges had no significant institutions in common.2 Throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries some of its inhabitants felt that Lorraine deserved more unity and control over its own actions. Mostly associated with the political right, they ranged from moderate decentralizers to outright autonomists. But they were all agreed that Lorraine was a real entity, and its political claims were merely the recognition of this ‘‘fact.’’ But of what did this Lorraine consist? Even its boundaries were uncertain; historically, the area covered by the four departments was more one of divisions than of unity. The dukes were, from the fifteenth David Hopkin is lecturer in social history at the University of Glasgow. A short version of this article was delivered to the conference of the Association for French Historical Studies in Ottawa, 1998.

  • The French Communist Party and the Comintern
    WILLIAM A. HOISINGTON.JR CLASS AGAINST CLASS: THE FRENCH COMMUNIST PARTY AND THE COMINTERN A STUDY OF ELECTION TACTICS IN 1928 Since the 1930's the French Communist party has faithfully endorsed the policy decisions of the Soviet Union, oftentimes despite disagree- ment with major Soviet pronouncements.1 In the 1920's, however, the French Communist leadership was divided over the appropriateness of Soviet instructions on matters that appeared to many French Com- munists clearly within the exclusive domain of the French party. The intrusion of the Comintern, the Soviet-dominated international Communist organization, into the pre-campaign discussion of the tactics for the 1928 elections to the French national assembly forced French Communists to re-examine their goals, their position in French politics, and their relationship with the Soviet Union. The decisions of the French party leaders, made amid what was perhaps the last animated and freewheeling public party debate, determined the party's relationship with the USSR for a full forty years. The disagreement over election tactics originated in the concern of a Comintern official for the politics and posture of the French party. Jules Humbert-Droz, director of the Comintern's Latin Secretariat and Comintern representative to the French party congress at Lille in June 1926, was alarmed at the efforts of French Communists to reach election agreements with members of the Socialist party.2 To Humbert - 1 The French Communist party's criticism of the invasion of Czechoslovakia by the Soviet Union, Bulgaria, East Germany, Hungary, and Poland was a rare example of infidelity.

    Voting for Vichy: Careers of French Legislators, 1940‐1958 Amanda Russell Senior Honors Thesis Dr. Lynch April 15, 2012 1 Introduction On July 10, 1940, in the humiliating aftermath of a triumphant German invasion, 570 members of the French National Assembly voted extraordinary powers to the Prime Minister, Philippe Pétain (see Table 1). 1 Although Pétain had been in office less than a month, he enjoyed such universal admiration and esteem that his rapid ascension to power gave hope to the shell‐shocked citizens of the Third Republic.2 For a generation of men who had fought in the trenches of World War I, no man could have been more suitable or worthy of command than Pétain, hero of the Battle of Verdun and one of only two living Marshals of France.3 Already eighty‐four years old in 1940, Pétain’s life of dutiful service had marked him with a reputation of being just, fair, and, above all, devoted to the French nation.4 Who could be more trusted to use virtually unlimited power for reconstruction and renewal than Pétain, a man known even to his opponents as a veritable “[incarnation] […] [of] traditional French virtues”?5 1 Jean Joly, Dictionnaire des parlementaires français: notices biographiques sur les parlementaires français de 1889 à 1940 (Paris, 1960) and Dictionnaire des parlementaires français: notices biographiques sur les parlementaires français de 1940 à 1958 (Paris: La documentation française, 1988), http://www.assemblee‐ nationale.fr/histoire/cr_10‐juillet‐1940.asp; Olivier Wieviorka, Orphans of the Republic: The Nation’s Legislators in Vichy France, (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2009), 345‐358, 365.
