  • 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.

    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.

  • Class of 1959 History by C
    Class of 1959 History By C. Darrell Lane, M.D. Franklin College founded in 1787 having united with Marshall College to form Franklin and Marshall College in the late summer of 1955 was 168 years old. In early September more than 360 first year students from multiple states and dissimilar backgrounds and representing more than 225 high schools converged on the F&M campus in Lancaster, bought books and supplies, received dormitory assignments, met new roommates, and paid the single semester $325.00 tuition. Total tuition listed in the college catalogue for the two semester 1955‐56 academic year amounted to the staggering sum of $1,310.00. The entire class assembled for the first time in Hensel Hall for welcoming remarks by President William W. Hall, Dean of the College James M. Darlington and Dean of Students Richard H. Winters. We were informed about a variety of conduct guidelines, academic performance expectations and procedural regulations. The freshman uniform of the day consisted of dinks and rolled‐up pants legs. Physical in‐hand possession of the college Blue Book was a required necessity. The mandated Hartman Hall dining room dinner dress code was jacket and tie. No mention was ever made apropos the laundering frequency of blue button down shirts or khaki trousers. At least from a distance we appeared respectfully civilized. Everyone carried an average of 16‐17 credit hours. We may have considered ourselves ill‐ used by compulsory chapel attendance on Tuesday morning, but, this obligation could be easily met by attending only six of ten possible choices, although September 15th and October 5th chapels were specifically designated for the Class of ’59.
