Towns and villages were flattened, farms were destroyed and railways had been blown up. It seemed that the world would not be the same again. At the end of the war, the leaders of the winning countries met to decide how to deal with the losing countries - this would be a huge task. The leaders of the winning countries could try to seek revenge or they could try to build a better and more peaceful world. Which way would the discussions go? Who do you think these three men are? What do you think they are talking about? What questions would you like to ask them? The three men are Woodrow Wilson (USA), Georges Clemenceau (France) and David Lloyd George (GB) ie The Big Three.

When the leaders of Britain, France and the USA arrived in Paris in 1919 to draw up the peace treaty...they were under pressure from the public to deal with Germany in a very severe way.

Millions of men had been killed Industries of the countries or injured (on that fought in the war were both sides). exhausted. British and French casualties amounted to over 9 million. The Reasons for the The Reasons for the Harsh Treatment of Harsh Treatment of Germany Germany The Paris Peace Conference In January of 1919, the winners of the 32 winning countries met at the Palace of Versailles to discuss what should happen to Germany. The discussions were headed by the leaders of the most powerful victorious countries: Britain, France and the USA. The leaders of these countries were David Lloyd George (GB), Georges Clemenceau ( France) and Woodrow Wilson (USA). They were known as 'The Big Three'. They had different ideas about how Germany should be treated. Task 1. Who were the Big Three and did they all want the same thing? The Big Three were . 2. What is wrong with the picture?

The Big Three (green) Leader Country What did did they think of Germany and why? Main aim Clemenceau Stuck? Think about where the fighting had taken place and what had Stuck? What did Clemenceau want to do to Germany and been destroyed. What had happened twice during Clemenceau’ s life? why? Lloyd George Stuck? Think about when the USA joined the war and why it had Stuck?

Think about trade, fact that Lloyd George had said that he Stuck? Think about compromise ie he wanted Germany to would ‘make Germany pay’. What was Loyd George cautious? be punished but. Clemenceau 1. Explain what France thought of Germany and why in the third column along in the table. Over two thirds of men that had served in the French army had been killed or injured – the war affected almost an entire generation. Lots of the fighting had taken place in north eastern France and the Germans had destroyed many mines, railways, factories, bridges and farmland.To many French people, Germany was still a powerful and intimidating nation. France had felt threatened by the power of Germany since 1870. In fact, France had been invaded by Germany twice during Clemenceau's lifetime, in 1871 and 1914. Also, public opinion in France was demanding that Germany be crushed, the French wanted revenge. 2. Main aims at the Paris Peace Conference-write these in the fourth column on the table. Clemenceau was the Prime Minister of France. He saw the talks at the Paris Peace Conference as an opportunity to cripple Germany so that it could not attack France again. The French President wanted Germany broken up in to a number of smaller states but Clemenceau knew that the British and Americans would not agree to that. He was realistic and knew he would have to compromise on some issues...but he had to listen to public opinion in France and wanted a treaty that would damage Germany as much as possible! Clemenceau wanted Germany to have its armed forces cut and the German border to be pushed back to the Rhine in eastern Germany so that France was less vulnerable to attack. Wilson 1. Explain what the USA thought of Germany and why in the third column along in the table. At first the USA stayed out of the war and when it did join in 1917, there was no fighting on American soil. The USA made lots of money selling weapons to the British and the French and saw no need for revenge on 10.The countries of Eastern Europe should rule Germany . Wilson drew up 14 points to help end the war fairly and to themselves. prevent further wars arising. For example, establishing the League of 11.Serbia to have access to the sea 12.People in the Turkish Empire able to govern Nations, no secret treaties, free trade between countries and all countries themselves. to work towards disarmament (getting rid of weapons). 13.Poland to become an independent state. 14.League of Nations to be set up 2. Main aims at the Paris Peace Conference-write these in the fourth column on the table. Wilson was the idealist of the three leaders, this means that some people thought he was a 'dreamer' and not very practical. He wanted to make a peaceful world after the war where everyone would be treated fairly. Although Wilson wanted world peace, he still believed that Germany needed to be punished but he thought the treaty should not be too hard. 1. No secret treaties He believed that if Germany was treated harshly, one day it would want revenge! He 2.Free access to the seas in war or peacetime wanted to strengthen democracy so the people of Germany would never allow another war.

Wilson’s first goal was to eliminate the causes of wars by calling for an end to secret agreements and alliances, protecting freedom of the seas, and reducing armaments. 2.

Wilson broke with tradition by traveling out of the United States while president to lead the U.S. delegation to the peace conference in Paris. 2. Wilson weakened his position when he asked Americans to support Democrats in the 1918 midterm elections, but then the Republicans won a majority in Congress. 3. Wilson made matters worse by choosing all Democrats and only one Republican to serve as the other delegates to the peace conference. II. Ideals Versus Self-Interest at Versailles A.

It promised the neutrality of both Germany and Russia if either country went to war with another country. b. Kaiser Wilhelm II refused to renew the reinsurance treaty after removing Bismarck in 1890. This can be seen as a huge diplomatic blunder; Russia wanted to renew it but now had no assurances it was safe from a German invasion. France courted Russia; the two became allies. Germany, now out of necessity, developed closer ties to Austria.

  • The Labor Agreements Between UAW and the Big Three Automakers- Good Economics Or Bad Economics? John J
    Journal of Business & Economics Research – January, 2009 Volume 7, Number 1 The Labor Agreements Between UAW And The Big Three Automakers- Good Economics Or Bad Economics? John J. Lucas, Purdue University Calumet, USA Jonathan M. Furdek, Purdue University Calumet, USA ABSTRACT On October 10, 2007, the UAW membership ratified a landmark, 456-page labor agreement with General Motors. Following pattern bargaining, the UAW also reached agreement with Chrysler LLC and then Ford Motor Company. This paper will examine the major provisions of these groundbreaking labor agreements, including the creation of the Voluntary Employee Beneficiary Association (VEBA), the establishment of a two tier wage structure for newly hired workers, the job security provisions, the new wage package for hourly workers, and the shift to defined contribution plans for new hires. The paper will also provide an economic analysis of these labor agreements to consider both if the “Big Three” automakers can remain competitive in the global market and what will be their impact on the UAW and its membership. Keywords: UAW, 2007 Negotiations, Labor Contracts BACKGROUND he 2007 labor negotiations among the Big Three automakers (General Motors, Chrysler LLC, and Ford Motor) and the United Autoworkers (UAW) proved to be historic, as well as controversial as they sought mutually to agree upon labor contracts that would “usher in a new era for the auto Tindustry.” Both parties realized the significance of attaining these groundbreaking labor agreements, in order for the American auto industry to survive and compete successfully in the global economy. For the UAW, with its declining membership of approximately 520,000, that once topped 1.5 million members, a commitment from the Big Three automakers for product investments to protect jobs and a new health care trust fund were major goals.

  • Theory of the Beautiful Game: the Unification of European Football
    Scottish Journal of Political Economy, Vol. 54, No. 3, July 2007 r 2007 The Author Journal compilation r 2007 Scottish Economic Society. Published by Blackwell Publishing Ltd, 9600 Garsington Road, Oxford, OX4 2DQ, UK and 350 Main St, Malden, MA, 02148, USA THEORY OF THE BEAUTIFUL GAME: THE UNIFICATION OF EUROPEAN FOOTBALL John Vroomann Abstract European football is in a spiral of intra-league and inter-league polarization of talent and wealth. The invariance proposition is revisited with adaptations for win- maximizing sportsman owners facing an uncertain Champions League prize. Sportsman and champion effects have driven European football clubs to the edge of insolvency and polarized competition throughout Europe. Revenue revolutions and financial crises of the Big Five leagues are examined and estimates of competitive balance are compared. The European Super League completes the open-market solution after Bosman. A 30-team Super League is proposed based on the National Football League. In football everything is complicated by the presence of the opposite team. FSartre I Introduction The beauty of the world’s game of football lies in the dynamic balance of symbiotic competition. Since the English Premier League (EPL) broke away from the Football League in 1992, the EPL has effectively lost its competitive balance. The rebellion of the EPL coincided with a deeper media revolution as digital and pay-per-view technologies were delivered by satellite platform into the commercial television vacuum created by public television monopolies throughout Europe. EPL broadcast revenues have exploded 40-fold from h22 million in 1992 to h862 million in 2005 (33% CAGR).

  • Costa Rican Banana Industry
    The Growth of the Banana Industry in Costa Rica and Its Effect on Biodiversity: History and Loss of Biodiversity THE HISTORY OF BANANAS IN COSTA RICA Historically banana plantations have played an integral part in Costa Rica's economy. The first banana plantation was created in 1872 and commercial export began in 1879. By 1899, The United Fruit Company was formed and went on to become well established throughout Central America within several countries, which were known, as the "banana republics". However, by 1956, the Costa Rican government had become concerned about the number of plantations, which had been developed and abandoned due to "Panama Disease" (a root fungus), not to mention the careless use of the country’s natural resources by the United Fruit Company (Hernadez and Witter, 1996). At this point the government recruited the Standard Fruit Company (now Dole, a subsidiary of Castle and Cooke) who began purchasing small amounts of fruit from local growers. Unfortunately it was also at this point in time that the use of agro-chemicals was put into practice, with this came the use of large amounts of pesticides, fungicides, nematocides, (Astorga, 1996) and other chemicals, as well as other intensive field and processing management. As of 1967, the United Fruit Company became known as the United Brands Company and the Chiquita label was introduced into Costa Rica. In 1968 another company, Del Monte, through [its] subsidiary, BANDECO, started producing and exporting from the Atlantic Zone. These three companies, Dole, Chiquita, and Del Monte are known as the "Big Three" in Costa Rica (McCracken, 1998).

One of the positive outcomes derived from past editions of this valuable study has been a notable improvement in the often‐derogatory ways that sports commentators used to routinely speak of women athletes. The good news in this report is that there is far less insulting and overtly sexist treatment of women athletes than there was twenty or even ten years ago.
