    European Community No. 26/1984 July 10, 1984 Contact: Ella Krucoff (202) 862-9540 THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT: 1984 ELECTION RESULTS :The newly elected European Parliament - the second to be chosen directly by European voters -- began its five-year term last month with an inaugural session in Strasbourg~ France. The Parliament elected Pierre Pflimlin, a French Christian Democrat, as its new president. Pflimlin, a parliamentarian since 1979, is a former Prime Minister of France and ex-mayor of Strasbourg. Be succeeds Pieter Dankert, a Dutch Socialist, who came in second in the presidential vote this time around. The new assembly quickly exercised one of its major powers -- final say over the European Community budget -- by blocking payment of a L983 budget rebate to the United Kingdom. The rebate had been approved by Community leaders as part of an overall plan to resolve the E.C.'s financial problems. The Parliament froze the rebate after the U.K. opposed a plan for covering a 1984 budget shortfall during a July Council of Ministers meeting. The issue will be discussed again in September by E.C. institutions. Garret FitzGerald, Prime Minister of Ireland, outlined for the Parliament the goals of Ireland's six-month presidency of the E.C. Council. Be urged the representatives to continue working for a more unified Europe in which "free movement of people and goods" is a reality, and he called for more "intensified common action" to fight unemployment. Be said European politicians must work to bolster the public's faith in the E.C., noting that budget problems and inter-governmental "wrangles" have overshadolted the Community's benefits.

Tom Marioni had named the conference “Word of Mouth” VISION #4. Twelve artists each gave a twelve-minute talk. Since LP records lasted twenty-four minutes, he had specified twelve-minute talks so we could put two on a side. Later we presented three records in a box. The records are white—“because it felt like we were landing from a flying saucer when we got off the plane in Ponape,” Tom remembers. The plane circled over what looked like a green dot in a blue sea, and we landed abruptly on a short white runway made of crushed coral with a great green rocky cliff at one end and the sea at the other. Against the cliff was a new low building. Shirtless workers in jeans hustled our bags from the plane into a big square hole in the building’s side, visibly pushing them onto a moving carousel. A man in a grass skirt and an inspector’s cap hustled us inside to claim them. The airport building was full of people, many in grass skirts, some (men and women) topless.

Though a number of different political parties submitted proposals, then-Prime Minister Jacques Chirac’s centre-right coalition led this initiative and pushed for measures that would have the effect of generally restricting eligibility for French citizenship. In particular, the government proposed to modify the process by which children born in France to immigrant parents could gain French citizenship. These reforms had come in the wake of a massive influx of immigrants in the second half of the twentieth century, many of whom came from North Africa but also elsewhere. As a new generation of young French men and women of immigrant heritage was coming of age, many in France began to raise questions about their inherent “Frenchness” and therefore place in French society and entitlement to nationality. According to proponents of the proposed amendments, by replacing the automatic right to citizenship through birth on French soil with an active process of application, these measures would ensure that only those expressing a desire to become French would receive citizenship.

  • Jacques Chaban-Delmas À Paris, Après Une Semaine De Vacances Passées Sur La Côte Basque
    © EDIPA 1974 27, rue de Dunkerque, PARIS 75010 Tous droits réservés JACQUES CHABAN-DELMAS Guy CLAISSE EDITIONS EDIPA - Collection " Close U P " Directeur : Jacques PERRIER Le coup du 4 avril I Mardi 2 avril 1974, dix heures du soir. A la verticale de Poitiers, un violent orage secoue l'avion qui ramène Jacques Chaban-Delmas à Paris, après une semaine de vacances passées sur la Côte Basque. Le député de Bordeaux bavarde tranquillement avec sa femme, Micheline. La radio du bord grésille, inaudible. Coupé du monde extérieur, l'équipage n'entend pas le bref commu- niqué que diffusent à cet instant précis l'O.R.T.F et les stations privées. « Le Président Pompidou est mort... » Pour la seconde fois Président de la République par intérim, Alain Poher n'a été prévenu que dix minutes plus tôt. Toute la France se doutait que Georges Pompidou n'allait pas bien, mais peu de gens savaient que le dénouement était si proche. Le Premier Ministre, Pierre Messmer, a appris la veille qu'il n'y avait plus d'espoir. Le conseiller politique du Président, Pierre Juillet, a passé la soirée du lundi, jusqu'à deux heures du matin, au chevet du mourant, dans l'appartement du Quai de Béthune devenu depuis quinze jours une sorte d'annexe de l'Elysée. Il a mis dans la confidence l'autre éminence grise de la Présidence, Marie- France Garaud, et le ministre de l'Intérieur Jac- ques Chirac. Chaban-Delmas, lui, n'est au courant de rien. Il ignore que la maladie s'est brusquement aggravée en une semaine.

  • L'entourage De Valéry Giscard D'estaing À L'elysée De 1974 À 1981 », Histoire@Politique
    Frédéric Tristram, « Un instrument politique mal assumé ? L'entourage de Valéry Giscard d'Estaing à l'Elysée de 1974 à 1981 », Histoire@Politique. Politique, culture, société, N°8, mai-août 2009. www.histoire-politique.fr Un instrument politique mal assumé ? L'entourage de Valéry Giscard d'Estaing à l'Elysée de 1974 à 1981 Frédéric Tristram Dans le flot d’études consacrées aux entourages politiques, celui de Valéry Giscard d’Estaing a été relativement négligé. Les raisons de cet oubli sont diverses. Elles tiennent à une certaine proximité chronologique et à la présence active, jusqu’à une date récente, de l’ancien Président dans le débat politique national et européen. Elles sont également la conséquence de la réserve longtemps observée par les anciens conseillers, après une défaite de 1981 vécue souvent comme un traumatisme. Elles ressortissent, plus fondamentalement, à la difficulté de cerner avec précision les contours d’un libéralisme français dont l’ancien Président a été la principale figure. Pourtant, l’entourage de Valéry Giscard d’Estaing présente des caractéristiques tout à fait originales. Celles-ci découlent d’abord d’un parcours politique en grande partie atypique. Valéry Giscard d’Estaing n’a en réalité occupé qu’un seul département ministériel, celui des Finances, mais sur une durée exceptionnellement longue, près de douze ans au total entre 1959 et 1974. Puis il a été élu très jeune président de la République, à l’âge de quarante-huit ans, sans bénéficier toutefois, comme ces concurrents gaullistes et socialistes, de l’appui d’un parti important et structuré. Ces circonstances n’ont pas été sans conséquences.
