Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 to q e s 2 ABSTRACT The thesis questions the common assertion that only exceptional political leaders can implement their aims, such are the institutional constraints on their action. This assertion is examined in relation to DATAR, the regional development agency of France, where the self- confident and compartmentalised bureaucracy would be expected to provide leaders with a difficult challenge. The analytical framework is derived from Blondel's Political Leadership, one of the few texts to assume that a full spectrum of leadership potential exists. The thesis starts by showing that political leaders could shape bureaucratic organisations to their own needs. Ministers interested in regional policy adapted its structures from a weak ministerial division to a model inter-ministerial agency, DATAR, whose reputational power was substantially affected by the political leadership's support for the policy. Political leaders were able to recruit DATAR's top staff on the basis of the criteria they chose; and to make DATAR's size, budget and work activities respond to their own policy aims. Through DATAR they could create, modify and direct interministerial committees and budgets to fit their particular objectives. The thesis then assesses the leadership's impact on policy instruments in two contrasted domains to judge how much leaders are helped or hindered by bureaucratic and other institutions, including DATAR. Whether on roads policy or on regionalisation, the political leadership mostly achieved incremental change, either because that was what it sought, or because its ambitions were curtailed by internal conflict and local politicians as much as by bureaucratic opposition. Sometimes leaders failed to make headway, and occasionally they asserted their political will in a dramatic fashion. Overall, the variety and strength of outcomes demonstrate that political leaders have a capacity to make an impact on bureaucratic organisations and to re-orient bureaucratic activities towards their particular political goals that is far greater than even Blondel anticipated. 3 CONTENTS Abstract 2 List of Figures 6 Abbreviations 8 Acknowledgements 9 Chapter 1 POLITICAL LEADERS AND BUREAUCRATIC INSTITUTIONS 11 An under-evaluated political leadership 12 Assessing the impact of political leaders 17 - Blondel's research strategy 17 - The thesis strategy 22 - Choice of case-study 25 - The research design 28 Chapter 2 RESHAPING ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURES: THE CREATION 33 OF DATAR The Service de Vamenagement du territoire 33 - Initiation by Vichy, 1941-44 35 - Restructuring by the Provisional Government, 1944-46 37 - Removing the regional tier, 1946 38 The Direction de Vamenagement du territoire 39 - Restructuring within the Ministry of Construction, 1948-52 4 0 - Economic re-orientation, 1953-56 41 - Adding interministerial provision, 1958-62 45 An ephemeral Ministry for amenagement du territoire 48 The Delegation a Vamenagement du territoire et a Vaction regionale 49 Conclusions 53 Chapter 3 LINKING DATAR TO THE LEADERSHIP: POSITIONAL OR 56 PERSONAL?

  • The London School of Economics and Political Science the New
    The London School of Economics and Political Science The New Industrial Order: Vichy, Steel, and the Origins of the Monnet Plan, 1940-1946 Luc-André Brunet A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, London, July 2014 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the MPhil/PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 87,402 words. 2 Abstract Following the Fall of France in 1940, the nation’s industry was fundamentally reorganised under the Vichy regime. This thesis traces the history of the keystones of this New Industrial Order, the Organisation Committees, by focusing on the organisation of the French steel industry between the end of the Third Republic in 1940 and the establishment of the Fourth Republic in 1946. It challenges traditional views by showing that the Committees were created largely to facilitate economic collaboration with Nazi Germany.

  • The Ideas of Economists and Political Philosophers, Both When They Are Right and When They Are Wrong, Are More Powerful Than Is Commonly Understood
    The ideas of economists and political philosophers, both when they are right and when they are wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. Indeed the world is ruled by little else. Practical men, who believe themselves to be quite exempt from any intellectual influences, are usually the slaves of some defunct economist. Madmen in authority, who hear voices in the air are distilling their frenzy from some academic scribbler of a few years back. J. M. Keynes, The General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money (chapter 24, §V). The evolution of the international monetary and financial system: Were French views determinant? Alain Alcouffe (University of Toulouse) alain.alcouffe@ut‐capitole.fr Fanny Coulomb (IEP Grenoble) Anthony M. Endres in his 2005 book, has stressed the part player by some economists in the design of the international monetary system during the Bretton Woods era. He proposed a classification of their doctrines and proposals in a table where fifteen economists are mentioned for ten proposals (Hansen, Williams , Graham, Triffin, Simons, Friedman/Johnson, Mises/Rueff/ Heilperin/Hayek/Röpke, Harrod, Mundell). Among them only one French economist, Jacques Rueff, is to be found but he did not stand alone but merged with those of other « paleo‐liberals ». At the opposite, in his 2007 book, Rawi Abdelal pointed the predominant part played by French citizens in the evolution of the international monetary system during the last decades, especially during the building up of the euro area and the liberalization of the capital movements. The article outlines the key stages in the evolution of the international monetary system and the part played by French actors in the forefront of the scene (Jacques Delors – European commission, Pascal Lamy, WTO) or in the wings (Chavranski, OECD).
