    H-Diplo ESSAY 242 Essay Series on Learning the Scholar’s Craft: Reflections of Historians and International Relations Scholars 9 June 2020 A Mid-Atlantic Identity1 https://hdiplo.org/to/E242 Series Editor: Diane Labrosse | Production Editor: George Fujii Essay by Robert O. Paxton, Columbia University, Emeritus smallish town in the Virginia Appalachians might seem impossibly remote from France. Even so, France was actively present in my home town in the 1930s and 1940s. Lexington is a college town. Two professors of French A were frequent dinner guests of my parents. My piano teacher and church choir director, another frequent dinner guest, had studied in Nadia Boulanger’s famous summer course at Fontainebleau. A Catalan painter, Pierre Daura, had met a Virginia girl at the École des Beaux Arts in Paris and married her. Exiled from Franco’s Spain, the Dauras made their home at St.-Cirque-la Popie in the département of the Lot. When war broke out in 1939, they resettled in the countryside near Lexington. My father, a lawyer, helped Pierre Daura with his citizenship papers. The Dauras were joined for a while by their brother-in-law, the better-known French painter Jean Hélion. I still have the copy of Hélion’s memoirs that he inscribed to my mother. The isolated local intelligentsia of my parents’ generation in American small towns valued France as an indispensable link to the cultivated outside world. That is probably less true in today’s multicultural climate. The two world wars made France still more salient for my parents’ generation and for my own as well.

  • LES FORMATIONS POLITIQUES EN MOSELLE (21 Octobre 1945-17 Juin 1951)
    LES FORMATIONS POLITIQUES EN MOSELLE (21 octobre 1945-17 juin 1951) Il n'est pas possible d'écrire l'histoire politique d'un départe­ ment « sans faire aux élections une place centrale dans l'analyse de ses composantes »<1>. L'objet principal de notre article est de distin­ guer les principales tendances politiques qui se dessinent en Moselle pendant les années de reconstruction économique et politique qui suivent la Libération(2). Pour atteindre cet objectif, une analyse détaillée et systémati­ que des consultations électorales nous semble tout à fait appropriée, l'élection étant « un révélateur de l'opinion et de ses mouvements »(3). Nous allons tenter de mettre en lumière et de déterminer les causes de l'évolution des courants politiques et de la relative permanence de leur distribution à la surface du département de la Moselle. A l'instar de beaucoup de chercheurs, nous pensons que les superstructures (l'idéologie, le politique, le culturel, ...) ne sont pas déterminées exclusivement et mécaniquement par les infrastructures. Comme l'ont écrit les auteurs de l'ouvrage intitulé « Pour une histoire politique », nous distinguons « une diversité de secteurs, le culturel, l'économique, le social, le politique, qui s'influencent mutuellement et inégalement selon les conjonctures, tout en ayant chacun sa vie autonome et ses dynamismes propres »<4> . Cadre de l'étude :le département Le cadre de notre étude est le département de la Moselle dont la configuration, née du traité de Francfort de 1871, a été maintenue en 1919. La Moselle se caractérise par une législation particulière dénommée « statut local », par deux annexions allemandes (1870- 1918, 1940-1944) et par la persistance du bilinguisme et du fait dialectal germanique qui la distinguent de la Lorraine nancéienne.

    MENU Policy Analysis / Articles & Op-Eds Operation Torch and the Birth of American Middle East Policy, 75 Years On by Robert Satloff Oct 9, 2017 Also available in Arabic ABOUT THE AUTHORS Robert Satloff Robert Satloff is executive director of The Washington Institute, a post he assumed in January 1993. Articles & Testimony In a radical rethinking of the origins of U.S. Middle East policy, Robert Satloff suggests that two key ideas guiding Washington's actions in the region for the past three-quarters of a century were born in the bargain U.S. leaders made with Vichy French officers after Allied troops landed in North Africa during World War II. "THE JEWS WILL HAVE TO WAIT" n November 8, 1942, a full year-and-a-half before the Allies invaded Normandy, about 110,000 American O and British troops invaded North Africa. They had set out in more than 850 ships from U.S. and British ports, sailed for up to 4,500 miles through treacherous Atlantic waters teeming with Nazi U-boats, and, once at their destination, put ashore in three landing zones spread across more than 900 miles of coastline, from south of Casablanca to east of Algiers. This was Operation Torch, America's first offensive operation in the European theater of war and, until Operation Overlord's Normandy landings, the greatest amphibious attack in history. Today, it is all but forgotten. And yet, aside from rivaling Overlord in terms of its enormity, complexity, and peril, Torch was also vastly consequential, for it helped to determine the future course and ultimately successful conclusion of the war.

  • The Evolution of Strategic Thinking in World War I: a Case Study of the Second Battle of the Marne
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 13, ISSUE 4, Summer 2011 Studies The Evolution of Strategic Thinking in World War I: A Case Study of the Second Battle of the Marne Michael S. Neiberg1 In his often-cited but infrequently read classic, On War, Carl von Clausewitz famously observed that war is an extension of politics by other means. Exactly what that now ubiquitous phrase means remains a topic of considerable scholarly debate. Generally speaking, however, a consensus has emerged that Clausewitz was urging policy makers to tie their use of military force to the political ends they wished to achieve. By keeping ends and means in harmony, political leaders can mitigate risk and avoid dangers like the phenomenon we now call mission creep.2 This consensus also cites nineteenth-century Prussia as a model for how to achieve Clausewitz’s vision; Otto von Bismarck, the wily Prussian/German chancellor, kept his war aims limited to the abilities of the Prussian army while taking great care not to involve his state in a long war that he feared it might not win.3 He therefore had an appropriate understanding of 1 I’d like to thank David Bercuson, Holger Herwig, Nancy Pearson Mackie, and Russ Benneweis for their assistance and hospitality in Calgary. 2 The literature on Clausewitz is extensive and deep. At the risk of omitting many fine works, see, for starters, Antulio Echevarria, Clausewitz and Contemporary War (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2007), Michael Howard, Clausewitz (Oxford, 1983), and John Lynn, Battle: A History of Combat and Culture (New York, 2003), chapter 6.

BRITAIN AND THE FRENCH RESISTANCE 1940-1942: A FALSE START by Laurie West Van Hook M.A., University of Richmond, 1997 Dr. John D. Treadway During the Second World War, the relationship between Great Britain and the French Resistance endured endless problems.From the early days of the war, both sides misunderstood the other and created a stormy relationship, which would never mature later in the war. The French Resistance, initially small and generally fractured, frequently focusedon postwar political maneuvering rather than wartime military tactics. Unificationwas sporadic and tenuous. Charles de Gaulle offered himselfas the leader of the Resistance but lacked experience. This thesis also shows, however, that the British clungto the London-based de Gaulle hastily in the earlydays of the war but quickly decreased their support of him. Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who was de Gaulle's most ardent supporter, disp1ayed ambivalence and frustration with the general.
