Obligation and Self-Interest in the Defence of Belgian Neutrality, 1830-1870 Frederik Dhondt1 Introduction ‘we are less complacent than the Swiss, and would not take treaty violations so lightly.’ Baron de Vrière to Sylvain Van de Weyer, Brussels, 28 June 18592 Neutrality is one of the most controversial issues in public international law3 and international relations history.4 Its remoteness from the United Nations system of collective security has rendered its discussion less topical.5 The significance of contemporary self-proclaimed ‘permanent neutrality’ is limited. 6 Recent scholarship has taken up the theme as a general narrative of nineteenth century international relations: between the Congress of Vienna and the Great War, neutrality was the rule, rather than the exception.7 In intellectual history, Belgium’s neutral status is seen as linked to the rise of the ‘Gentle Civilizer of Nations’ at the end of the nineteenth century.8 International lawyers’ and politicians’ activism brought three Noble Peace Prizes (August Beernaert, International Law Institute, Henri La Fontaine). The present contribution focuses on the permanent or compulsory nature of Belgian neutrality in nineteenth century diplomacy, from the country’s inception (1830-1839)9 to the Franco- 1 Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), University of Antwerp, Ghent University/Research Foundation Flanders.

  • Les Émeutes De Novembre 1871 À Bruxelles Et La Revocation Du Ministère D'anethan
    RBHC-BTNG, XV, 1984, 1-2, pp. 165-200. LES EMEUTES DE NOVEMBRE 1871 A BRUXELLES ET LA REVOCATION DU MINISTERE D'ANETHAN par Ph. J. VAN TIGGELEN Aspirant au F.N.R.S. En octobre 1871, l'ancien ministre Pierre De Decker est nommé gouverneur du Limbourg. Celui-ci avait été un proche collaborateur du financier André Langrand-Dumonceau, dont la faillite frauduleuse avait entraîné la ruine de milliers de familles. Cette nomination four- nit à l'opposition libérale et en particulier au député Jules Bara, le prétexte d'une offensive contre le ministère catholique du baron d'Anethan. Le 22 novembre, Bara interpelle le gouvernement au sujet de cette nomination. L'attention politique se trouve focalisée sur les séances houleuses de la Chambre des Représentants. Simultanément, des manifestations ont lieu dans les rues de Bruxelles et se répètent dans les derniers jours de novembre. Le 1er décembre 1871, Leopold II, excédé par les troubles journa- liers qui se produisaient à la Chambre des Représentants et sous les fenêtres du Palais, décide de révoquer ses ministres et fait appel au comte de Theux pour constituer un nouveau gouvernement dans la majorité. Les événements de novembre 1871 et la chute du ministère d'Anethan, évoqués de manière toujours ponctuelle dans les grandes synthèses de l'histoire politique de la Belgique, n'ont fait l'objet d'aucune recherche spécifique. Les études d'histoire politique parues durant les dernières années, tout comme les monographies d'histoire bruxelloise, se réfèrent, sur ce point, aux ouvrages plus anciens qui fondent leur argumentation sur des 'Vérités historiques" souvent douteuses (1).

  • AN UPHILL BATTLE Campaigning for the Militarization of Belgium, 1870-1914
    AN UPHILL BATTLE Campaigning for the Militarization of Belgium, 1870-1914 - Nel de Mûelenaere - Belgium plays a minor role, if it is mentioned at all, in the annals of the previously unparalleled European militarization that led to the First World War. This article presents a more nuanced image of Belgium as a non-militarized state during these decades, by focusing on the attempts of the militaristic political lobby to expand Belgium’s military infrastructure. Between 1870 and 1914, Belgium was indeed the scene of an intense militaristic movement that, despite its high level of activism, quickly fell into oblivion. At the start of their campaigns, in which the main goal was the adoption of personal military service, the militaristic lobbyists were primarily military or ex-military functionaries. The main motivation for their campaign was improving the sense of military purpose that acted as a preparation for war. This changed fundamentally throughout the campaigns. The militarists steadily built up a civilian network and expanded their influence. This was a key factor in the successful dissemination of the idea that a reformed Belgian army was very much needed in order to avert external dangers. At the same time, civilian influence altered the militarists’ view of the societal role of the military. This reciprocal influence reduced the gap between the military and civilian worlds, and suggests the presence of under- acknowledged militarization processes in Belgium prior to World War One. 145 Campaigning for the Militarization of Belgium I. Introduction ment of army officials and prominent Liberals pursuing the goal of a more powerful Belgian army.

    A statistical historiography of Belgium’s national electoral and party system Tom Schamp1 & Carl Devos Background paper For the paper submitted for ECPR‟s Joint Sessions of Workshops “Party system dynamics. New tools for the study of party system change and party transformation” 11-16 March, 2013 Mainz, Germany 1 Ghent University Faculty of Social and Political sciences Department of Political science Universiteitstraat 8, 9000 Gent, Belgium e-mail: [email protected] 1 1. Introduction In their overview of the Belgian national electoral results and party systems since 1830, Matagne and Verjans (2012:85) concluded that Belgium advanced from a bipolar political system since 1848, via what Giovanni Sartori (1976) called a two-and-a-half party system in the 1920s to the fractionalized and highly volatile multiparty system that present-day Belgium is worldwide known for. In this paper we study the linkages between the changing political system, the process of electoral reforms and the development of the party system. We intend to do so focusing on an old democracy: Belgium. We analyze origin, rise and fall of Belgian political parties participating in the national legislative elections, of the nature and complexity and change of the national electoral system, of the persistence, consolidation and change of the national party system, and last but not least of the perception of democracy in itself.2 These issues are among the most central issues studied by political scientists. There are plenty of explanations for today‟s party system fragmentation. Ever since the 1960s political parties in Belgium, in The Netherlands and in many other Western European representative democracies were principally uprooting from social cleavages.

An ‘Atypical’ Case? The First Emergence of Brussels as an International Financial Centre 1830-1860 1 Stefano Ugolini Abstract: Economic historians often take for granted the idea that financial centres have followed one standard bottom-up development process, gradually evolving from commercial hubs to banking places. This chapter suggests that such an interpretation is rather simplistic. The analysis is focused on a remarkable counterexample: the sudden emergence of Brussels as an international financial centre in the mid-19 th century. The case-study is articulated into five parts, each one looking at a different aspect of the growth of the new centre (capital resources, business elites, regulation, the domestic money market, and the foreign exchange market).
