  • 1 Finance and Politics in the USA: from National City Bank to Citigroup
    Finance and Politics in the USA: From National City Bank to Citigroup : an American bank or a world bank ? Christine Zumello Université Sorbonne Nouvelle – Paris 3 Introduction As the theme of this year’s EBHA Conference hinges around the link between the wealth of nations and international business, this paper aims at trying to analyse the positioning, since its creation, of one American bank (Citibank) within the American political domestic scene and the wider globalization of financial services. The banking landscape in the USA has been shaped by various political and economic forces throughout the years and the interaction between banks and the state has, in the case of Citibank 1, been particularly close and has, in t 200political(?)” market forces. Indeed, the role of globalisation and the number of mergers and acquisitions in the banking sector in the USA which has increased in the last decade 2 has clearly contributed to the blurring of the frontiers between domestic and international boundaries in financial operations. Citigroup has managed to hold both a strong local-consumer base together with a wide international network which has involved it in a number of emerging markets and even micro-finance development today. Hence when one discusses the interactions between finance and politics, one realises that, in the United States, historical events have played a significant role in explaining the idiosyncrasy of the American banking landscape but one may wonder whether finance could have, on the domestic political scene in the USA, managed to outweigh politics or rather to free itself from political considerations. 1 Throughout this paper, and for readability purposes, we will often use the name Citibank and then Citigroup (since 1998) but the bank’s name has been modified to accommodate regulatory changes.

  • Mason Williams
    City of Ambition: Franklin Roosevelt, Fiorello La Guardia, and the Making of New Deal New York Mason Williams Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Mason Williams All Rights Reserved Abstract City of Ambition: Franklin Roosevelt, Fiorello La Guardia, and the Making of New Deal New York Mason Williams This dissertation offers a new account of New York City’s politics and government in the 1930s and 1940s. Focusing on the development of the functions and capacities of the municipal state, it examines three sets of interrelated political changes: the triumph of “municipal reform” over the institutions and practices of the Tammany Hall political machine and its outer-borough counterparts; the incorporation of hundreds of thousands of new voters into the electorate and into urban political life more broadly; and the development of an ambitious and capacious public sector—what Joshua Freeman has recently described as a “social democratic polity.” It places these developments within the context of the national New Deal, showing how national officials, responding to the limitations of the American central state, utilized the planning and operational capacities of local governments to meet their own imperatives; and how national initiatives fed back into subnational politics, redrawing the bounds of what was possible in local government as well as altering the strength and orientation of local political organizations. The dissertation thus seeks not only to provide a more robust account of this crucial passage in the political history of America’s largest city, but also to shed new light on the history of the national New Deal—in particular, its relation to the urban social reform movements of the Progressive Era, the long-term effects of short-lived programs such as work relief and price control, and the roles of federalism and localism in New Deal statecraft.

  • Revisiting Affiliated Ute: High Court Needs a Reboot by Gary Aguirre
    Revisiting Affiliated Ute: High Court Needs A Reboot By Gary Aguirre Law360, New York (May 17, 2017, 4:26 PM EDT) -- Last month marked 45 years since the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Affiliated Ute Citizens of Utah v. United States, which established a rebuttable presumption of reliance for securities fraud claims based on omissions of material fact. This Expert Analysis special series will explore the decision's progeny in the Supreme Court and various circuits. The U.S. Supreme Court ended an era in 1972 with its decision in Affiliated Ute Citizens of Utah v. United States.[1] It would be the last decision for three decades[2] to treat deceptive conduct alone — with no deceptive words — as a violation of the anti-fraud provisions of the securities acts. The distinction between deceptive conduct and deceptive words is simple in principle. Assume a fake man of the cloth positions himself outside a church just before the service begins. He wears a cassock identical to the one worn by the minister who preaches from the pulpit. Holding a collection box, he smiles and nods graciously as the faithful fill it with bills, but he utters no words. Is his conduct less fraudulent because it is wordless? Affiliated Ute protected investors in three ways. First, it held that conduct alone — with no words uttered between buyer and seller — could create civil liability under Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and Rule 10b-5 if the conduct operated to conceal a material fact. Abstracting this principle and applying it to the fake minister, his deceptive conduct created a duty to disclose the material fact his scheme concealed: he is not part of the ministry.

  • Civil Discourse. This Podcast Will Use Government Documents To
    Welcome to Civil Discourse. This podcast will use government documents to illuminate the workings of the American Government and offer contexts around the effects of government agencies in your everyday life. Now your hosts, Nia Rodgers, Public Affairs Librarian and Dr. John Aughenbaugh, Political Science Professor. Nia Rodgers: Hey, Aughie. John Aughenbaugh: Morning, Nia. How are you? Nia Rodgers: I'm good. How are you? John Aughenbaugh: I'm doing fine. Another lovely spring day in The Greater Richmond area. Nia Rodgers: I was going to say in the RVA. John Aughenbaugh: Yes. Nia Rodgers: We're doing our commission series and I think there's a thing we cannot leave out and that is money. The Benjamin's. Monetary policy. John Aughenbaugh: The Jack, the coin, the dinero. Nia Rodgers: Exactly, the bitcoin now. Apparently that's the hot thing. Everybody keeps saying, "Are you going to invest in bitcoin?" I was like, "I can't afford to invest in bitcoin." Apparently, a bitcoin cost you 80 million dollars or something? I don't know. John Aughenbaugh: Yeah. I get asked that question. Nia Rodgers: You know I work for the public, right? John Aughenbaugh: [inaudible] One, I work for the government, and two, I struggle to go ahead and keep current with my IRA, my individual retirement account, right? They're asking me to go ahead and spend valuable intellectual capital on a currency that, one, I'm not entirely sure what it is. Nia Rodgers: Exactly. How it works. I don't really understand it because I barely understand fiat currency as it currently exists.

  • The Future of Penal Reform, the Carceral State, and American Politics*
    Bring It On: The Future of Penal Reform, the Carceral State, and American Politics* Marie Gottschalk** Fifteen years ago, mass imprisonment was largely an invisible issue in the United States. Since then, criticism of the country’s extraordinary incarceration rate has become widespread across the political spectrum. The huge prison buildup of the past four decades has few ardent defenders at present. But reforms to reduce the number of people in jail and prison have been remarkably modest so far. Meanwhile, a tenacious carceral state has sprouted in the shadows of mass imprisonment and has been extending its reach far beyond the prison gate. It includes not only the country’s vast archipelago of jails and prisons, but also the far-reaching and growing range of penal punishments and controls that lie in the never-never land between the prison gate and full citizenship. As it sunders families and communities, and radically reworks conceptions of democracy, rights, and citizenship, the carceral state poses a formidable political and social challenge. The reach of the carceral state today is truly breathtaking. It extends well beyond the estimated 2.2 million people sitting in jail or prison today in the United States.1 It encompasses the more than 8 million people—or 1 in 23 adults―who are under some form of state control: including jail, prison, probation, parole, community sanctions, drug courts, immigrant detention, and other forms of government supervision.2 It also includes the millions of people who are booked into jail each year— nearly twelve million—and the estimated 7.5 percent of all adults who are felons or ex-felons.3 * This article is based on a revised and updated version of the concluding chapter of Marie Gottschalk, Caught: The Prison State and the Lockdown of American Politics (Princeton, NJ: Princeton University Press, 2015).

  • Reverberations Between Immoderate Land-Price
    Reverberations Between Immoderate Land-Price Cycles and Banking Cycles Mason Gaffney1 Paper delivered at Annual Meetings, Association for Evolutionary Economics (AFEE), Chicago, January 8, 2012 Legacy of the Pecora Hearings. We begin with the Pecora Hearings of March 1933.2 Ferdinand Pecora's were another “ten days that shook the world,” but Pecora's ten days shook the very temple of capitalism, Wall Street itself.3 These were the dying days of Hoover's Administration and the Republican Congress. Herbert Hoover was desperate to find a scapegoat for the disasters he had overseen, yet holding back safely short of challenging the system, or the cartelization of American industry he had sponsored. He focused on an alleged plot by short sellers who were “selling America short.” Few bought this political play on words, so he pushed the lame duck Senate's Banking and Currency Committee to investigate Wall Street and gin up some more scapegoats to save Hoover's face and reputation. Chair of the Committee, through Senate seniority rules, was Peter Norbeck of S.D., a residue of old prairie Populism via T.R.'s Bull Moose Party, and an unreconstructed Progressive4. Norbeck knew little of Banking and Currency – Wall Street Republicans stigmatized old prairie populists as “Sons of the Wild Jackass.” Norbeck sought a savvy prosecutor for the hearings. Few wanted the job – two weeks working for a lame duck Congress, making powerful enemies. Far down on his list Norbeck came to Ferdinand Pecora, a mere assistant D.A. for New York County. Pecora likewise knew little of banking and currency, but was a quick study with remarkable energy, high ambition, lethal aim, and little awe of pedigreed bankers with Ivy- League degrees, and intimidating miens.

  • A Brief History of the Glass-Steagall Act
    background paper A Brief History of the Glass-Steagall Act Ten years ago last November, a Republican-led Congress and a Democratic White House rolled out the red carpet for a new age of global, “full service,” too-big-to-fail financial institu- tions. The move repealed the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, a set of reforms responsible for the longest crisis-free period in U.S. financial history. At the time, industry lobbyists argued that this modern experiment in deregulation would bring greater stability and competitiveness to the financial services industry. Today, it is clear that they were wrong—and spectacularly so. Competition is suffering from high concentration and anti-competitive subsidies to the big- gest institutions, and the system has been radically destabilized by unregulated activities, cost- ing taxpayers nearly $19.3 trillion1 in bailouts and subsidies. As Washington debates the best way to prevent future crises, it is helpful to understand how public policy helped bring about the current one. What Glass-Steagall Was Officially known as the Banking Act of 1933, it was one of the landmark pieces of legislation associated with Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal. The measure established the concept of de- posit insurance and set up the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to provide it. Glass- Steagall2 also erected a firewall between commercial banks, which take deposits and make loans, and investment banks, which organize the sale of bonds and stocks. The Road to Glass-Steagall Between 1929 and 1933, more than 4,000 U.S. banks had closed permanently, saddling de- positors with close to $400 million in losses.
