  • Bank Notes of the French Revolution, Part I – the Royal Assignats
    BANK NOTES OF THE FRENCH REVOLUTION, PART I – THE ROYAL ASSIGNATS John E. Sandrock Prelude to Revolution Conditions in France under the monarchy at the end of the eighteenth century were bad both economically and socially. The monarchy was supreme, ruling by Divine Right. As a result, there being no parliament or other body to act as a check on extremes, the king was responsible only to himself. Although Louis XVI meant well, he was sluggish and ignorant when it came to domestic and foreign affairs. His love of hunting and his passion for tinkering with locks consumed his concentration. The problems associated with statesmanship were beyond his grasp. To make matters worse his Austrian born wife, Marie Antoinette, was both frivolous and erratic without any understanding of her subjects or their plight. France at this time was an agrarian nation with all but a small percentage of the population working the land. Crops had been very poor for several years and the winter hail storms of 1788-1789 was uncommonly severe. This made the collection of taxes, always an onerous chore which was badly administered, much more difficult. When we add to this the agrarian troubles, continual unbalanced budgets, foreign trade stifled for lack of credit, and a monarchy unable to raise money due to its bad credit, we have the grounds for bankruptcy. Transcending all this was a bureaucracy where privilege was rife. An enormous amount of wealth (some say up to twenty-five percent) was tied up in the hands of the church and clergy. Soon many writers began to attack the outmoded privileges and abuses of the aristocracy.

    International Journal of Community Currency Research Volume 16 (2012) Section D 116-123 LOCAL EXCHANGE TRADE SYSTEMS IN CENTRAL EUROPEAN POST COMMUNIST COUNTRIES Petr Jelínek*, Zsuzsanna Eszter Szalay** And Alois Konečný*** *Mendel University, Brno, Czech Republic ** Corvinus University Of Budapest, Hungary *** Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic ABSTRACT This paper gives information about Local Exchange Trade Systems in the region of former Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary. The transition to a market economy proceeded in differ- ent ways in these countries, but similar histories in the last century (communism under Soviet inEluence) led to only small differences among the countries in the level of motivation and power of their civil societies – and subsequently, in the vitality of LETS circles. In the Czech Re- public, the Eirst LETS circle was established in 1999; however, none is active at present. Simi- larly, in the Slovak Republic, out of 10 to 15 LETS circles formed between 2000 and 2005, only one works at the present time. LETS in Poland developed in the early 90’s but soon declined even though a few groups are still active today. LETS in Hungary was very passive, but there have been new signs and initiatives since 2004. The possible reasons for such LETS develop- ments in the so-called Visegrad countries are also discussed in this paper.

    LOCAL EXCHANGE TRADE SYSTEMS IN THE CENTRAL EUROPEAN POST COMMUNIST COUNTRIES Jelínek P., Szalay Zs., Konečný A. Jelínek Petr, Mendel University, Brno, Czech Republic [email protected] Szalay Zsuzsanna Eszter, Corvinus University of Budapest, Hungary [email protected] Konečný Alois, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic [email protected] ISSN 1325-9547 ABSTRACT This paper gives information about Local Exchange Trade Systems in the region of former Czechoslovakia, Poland and Hungary. The transition to a market economy proceeded in dif- ferent ways in these countries, but similar histories in the last century (communism under So- viet influence) led the countries to only small differences in the level of motivation and power of their civil societies – subsequently, in the vitality of LETS circles. In the Czech Republic, the first LETS circle was established in 1999; however, now out of its three circles, none is at present active. Similarly, in the Slovak Republic, of 10 to 15 LETS circles formed between 2000 and 2005, only one works at the present time. LETS in Poland developed in the early 90’s but soon declined even as a few groups are still active today. LETS in Hungary was very passive, but there have been new signs and initiatives since 2004. The possible reasons for such LETS developments in so-called Visegrad countries are also discussed in this paper. INTRODUCTION From a socio-economic point of view, three facts appear very important: an experience of a democracy or existence of a civil society, the indebtedness of a country’s citizens, and the in- come inequality between the richest and the poorest within national borders.

  • Lighthouses on World Paper Money
    LIGHTHOUSES ON WORLD PAPER MONEY By Miguel Chirinos IBNS #5992; NC-IBNS #3; LANSA #1252, ANA; NCNA Lighthouses on World Paper Money by Miguel Chirinos for NC-IBNS INTRODUCTION For several years I have had the wonderful opportunity to visit the coast of North Carolina where there is one of the most famous landmarks in America. It is located north of Cape Hatteras Point on the Outer Banks and near the site of the 1585 “Lost Colony” of Roanoke, which mysteriously disappeared in this beautiful natural area. On the Outer Banks, the coast changes ominously. North Carolina’s treacherous shore in the Cape Hatteras region has been called the “Graveyard of the Atlantic”. Long, thin barrier reefs run out to a point at Cape Hatteras, then turn sharply southwest to Cape Lookout. Farther south the entrance to Wilmington is marked by surf crashing on the menacing rocks of Cape Fear, a place where hurricanes strikes with savage force. The need for lighthouses became more apparent during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, after the voyages made by Columbus, Magellan and others. The great distances covered by European vessels were essentially unguided as they sailed into unknown waters. I can imagine these pioneers, turning back one last time before embarking on these great voyages, then thinking of the vast expanse of ocean, the countries and peoples they were to leave behind. The consequences of these long journeys, made by water with little navigation aids was extremely dangerous work. Lighthouses were far 1 Lighthouses on World Paper Money by Miguel Chirinos for NC-IBNS apart, there were no public buoys to guide the mariner, and almost nothing had been done to improve navigation.

    Journal of Undergraduate Research MARCUS LIDDELL graduated in 2014 with a degree in German, having minored in ESS and Peace Studies. As a freshman, he began work in the Rare Books collection at the Hesburgh Library cataloguing a set of emergency currency notes. While working, he slowly began to notice a set of themes present across many different notes, which with encouragement from his undergraduate advisor Denise DellaRossa and ample support from his thesis advisor Tobias Boes he was able to organize into a thesis. He would like to thank them for their contributions, to thank the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections for the help they provided along the way, and to thank the Nanovic Institute for conference presentation travel funding. Marcus is currently in Greifswald, Germany on a Fulbright English Teaching Assistantship. 191 Journal of Undergraduate Research THE PERSISTENT PAST: NOTGELD AND PROTO-FASCIST SENTIMENTS IN ANTEBELLUM GERMANY Marcus Ward Liddell Part 1: Introduction The rise of Nazism in Germany and the resulting Second World War have become etched into the culture and consciousness of the western world. This phenomenon has become the subject of a large body of scholarly research, the ultimate cautionary tale in the realm of politics, and a target of lingering obsession among the general public. Interest in the origins of the National Socialist German Workers Party (NSDAP), both academic and general, frequently centers around one particular question: how did this happen? Implicit in that inquiry is another: how can we prevent this from happening again? A number of answers have been offered in response to this question.
