  • “Non”: Creditor-Debtor Politics and the German Financial Crises of 1930 and 1931
    Why the French said “non”: Creditor-debtor politics and the German financial crises of 1930 and 1931 Simon Banholzer, University of Zurich Tobias Straumann, University of Zurich1 December, 2015 Abstract Why did France delay the Hoover moratorium in the summer of 1931, thus escalating the German financial crisis? In most accounts the announcement of an Austro-German customs union issued in March 1931 is cited as the crucial event that made the French reluctant to continue their cooperation with Germany. We suggest a more comprehensive explanation. While acknowledging the negative impact of the customs union, we think that the collapse of mutual trust came much earlier, namely with the evacuation of the Rhineland in the summer of 1930. It explains why as early as the autumn of 1930 France declined to help Germany mitigate a financial crisis. We use the prisoner’s dilemma to illustrate our argument. 1 Corresponding author: Tobias Straumann, Department of Economics (Economic History), Zürichbergstrasse 14, CH–8032 Zürich, Switzerland, [email protected] 1 1. Introduction The German crisis of 1931 is one the crucial moments in the history of the world economic slump of the 1930s. It led to a global liquidity crisis, bringing down the British pound and a number of other currencies and causing a banking crisis in the United States. The economic turmoil also had negative political consequences. The legitimacy of the Weimar Republic further eroded, Chancellor Heinrich Brüning became even more unpopular. The British historian Arnold Toynbee had good reasons to call the year 1931 “annus terribilis”. The crisis might have been contained, if the French authorities had immediately supported the debt and reparations moratorium suggested by US President Herbert Hoover on June 20, 1931.

  • Aristide Briand: Defending the Republic Through Economic Appeasement
    Robert Boyce, "Aristide Briand : defending the Republic through economic appeasement", Histoire@Politique. Politique, culture, société, n° 16, janvier-avril 2012, www.histoire-politique.fr Aristide Briand: defending the Republic through economic appeasement Robert Boyce Aristide Briand occupied a major place in the politics of the Third Republic. For nearly twenty years he was a prominent political activist and journalist. Then, upon entering parliament he was eleven times président du Conseil and a minister on no less than twenty-five occasions, participating in government almost continuously from 1906 to 1917, in 1921-1922 and again from 1925 to 1932. Never during his thirty- year parliamentary career, however, did he take responsibility for a ministry of commerce, industry or finance or participate in debates on fiscal policy or budget reform. It might be said, indeed, that of all the leading politicians of the Third Republic he was one of the least interested in economic issues. Since he repeatedly altered his political posture before and after entering parliament, his approach to economics is difficult to define. Nevertheless it is possible to identify certain underlying beliefs that informed his political behaviour and shaped his economic views. In order to analyse these beliefs, their evolution and their instrumentalisation, the present paper will treat his public life in three stages: the long period before entering parliament, the period from 1902 to the war when he established his reputation as a progressive political leader, and the period from 1914 to 1932 when he became France's leading statesman. As will be seen, changing circumstances led him repeatedly to alter his posture towards economic choices, but in the second stage he became associated with potentially important domestic social and economic reforms, and in the third stage with potentially important international economic reforms.

Deux jours plus tard, l’ancien secrétaire général de l’Élysée faisait sa première déclaration publique pour condamner les attentats de Karachi, au Pakistan. Son mandat a pris fin le 30 mars 2004, suite au changement de gouvernement induit par l’échec de la droite aux élections régionales. Son dernier mois au Quai d’Orsay venait d’être marqué par d’autres attentats, ceux du 11 mars, à Madrid, et il en suivrait l’enquête en tant que ministre de l’Intérieur. Ces bornes chronologiques annoncent, nous le voyons, le contexte de crise dans lequel le ministre a dû mettre en œuvre la politique étrangère de la France, et permet de se demander de quelle manière il l’a fait.

Falling between a period of comparative stability, when the Radical governments of Emile Combes (1902–5) and Georges Clemenceau (1906–9) had dominated politics, and a period of greater confusion, from 1910 to 1914, Briand’s first ministry coincided with a great resurgence of optimism in French politics.

    un portrait inédit d’aristide Briand par marceL pLaisant À l’occasion du centenaire de la Société des Nations, l’ambassadeur François Plaisant a bien voulu communiquer à la Revue d’histoire diploma- tique un texte inédit de son père, Marcel Plaisant (1887-1958), sur Aristide Briand (1862-1932). Qu’il en soit ici vivement remercié. Ce document, conservé dans ses archives de famille par M. Plaisant, est indépendant des Papiers Marcel Plaisant, le très riche fonds déposé aux archives diplomatiques françaises de La Courneuve, dans la série Papiers d’agents – archives privées (220PAAP). Daté du jeudi 9 septembre 1954, le texte que nous publions ci-dessous aurait dû faire partie d’une galerie de quatorze portraits d’hommes politiques, auxquels s’ajoutent six maîtres du barreau et deux personnalités hors normes, Pie XII et André Siegfried, que l’auteur se proposait de livrer au public sous le titre Devant les rostres : orateurs de ce temps (1). La mort l’a empêché de mener à bien son projet. Il avait rédigé cependant, peu avant sa mort, un « avis au lecteur » dans lequel il précisait que son dessein, en écrivant cet ouvrage, était « de faire les portraits des orateurs les plus connus depuis environ 1907 à ce jour’hui. […] Ces portraits, ou mieux ces médaillons, ne seront pas des biographies, ni même des morceaux d’histoire. L’auteur veut essayer de dégager les règles oratoires ou les préceptes de la tribune ou de la barre dont se sont inspirés les orateurs de ce temps.

  • Stock Returns, Governments and Market Foresight in France, 1871-2008
    Stock Returns, Governments and Market Foresight in France, 1871-2008 David Le Bris This paper analyzes the historical relationship between the political coloration of the government and stock market performance in France between 1871 and 2008. The Left-wing/Right-wing dichotomy, which is ubiquitous in French political discourse, is utilized in order to build a comparative analytical framework. During the 150 months characterized by the appointment of a new government regardless the coloration, we find that the monthly stock return is, on average, three times higher than for other months. The market appreciates in value with all new governments. However, in the long run, the real return of French stocks averages 4.40% per year under Left-wing versus 0.11% under Right-wing governments. This difference, although statistically robust, is not the result of added compensation for higher risk investments, nor is it driven by short special periods. The existence of a more favorable macroeconomic context during the rule of Left-wing governments only explains one third of this difference. A large part of the difference is concentrated during the three months prior to a coloration change. Assuming that the market anticipates coloration changes three months in advance, we move the boundaries: the difference in stock returns becomes insignificant.
