The Slave Trade Question in Anglo-French Diplomacy, 1830-1845Wood, Ronnie P. 08 1900 (has links)
This thesis concludes that (1) Immediately following the July Revolution, the Paris government refused to concede the right of search to British commanders. (2) Due to France's isolation in 1831-1833, she sought British support by negotiating the conventions of 1831 and 1833. (3) In response to Palmerston's insistence and to preserve France's influence Sdbastiani signed the protocol of a five-power accord to suppress the slave trade. Guizot accepted the Quintuple Treaty to facilitate an Anglo-French rapprochement. (4) Opposition encouraged by the Webster-Ashburton Treaty, however, forced Guizot to repudiate this new agreement. (5) As a concession to Guizot,Aberdeen dropped the demand for a mutual right of search and negotiated the Convention of 1845, establishing a system of joint-cruising.

France and the Little Entente, 1936-1937: the Work of Yvon DelbosKephart, Brad W. 12 1900 (has links)
This thesis studies France"s relations with the Little Entente during the term of Foreign Minister Delbos. It relies primarily on published diplomatic papers and memoirs. It discusses Delbos's background, the histories of Czechoslovakia, Yugoslavia, and Rumania from 1919-1936, and the formation of the Little Entente. The thesis focuses on France's efforts after the Rhineland crisis to strengthen her Eastern European alliances. Delbos chose the Little Entente over the Soviet Union as France's primary Eastern European alliance. Delbos's proposed Mutual Assistance Pact between France and the Little Entente and his Eastern European trip in December, 1937, failed owing to Yugoslavian and Rumanian opposition. German economic domination and intimidation of, and British disinterest in, Eastern Europe contributed to Yugoslavian and Rumanian rejection of France's overtures.

Issues of poverty and poor relief in colonial Northern Vietnam : the interaction between colonial modernism and elite Vietnamese thinkingNguyen-Marshall, Van 11 1900 (has links)
This dissertation explores the discourses on poverty in Colonial Vietnam. Based
on French-language archival material and Vietnamese-language literary and
journalistic sources, the dissertation examines both the French colonial
administration's and Vietnamese intellectuals' conceptualization and
representation of poverty and poor relief. While both the French and Vietnamese
discourses on poverty diverged in their analyses of the problem, they both vied
for moral authority in the domain of poverty relief. This dissertation, therefore,
contributes to the Postmodernist argument that poverty is a socially constructed
concept, revealing more about the elite than the poor of whom they wrote.
Within the French colonial rhetoric one justification for colonial rule was
the improvement of the material condition of Indochina. Poor relief fell within the
purview of the French 'civilizing' mission, the official doctrine for French
Imperialism. The colonial agenda, racial prejudices, and the French
administrators' own ambivalent attitudes toward the poor made any attempt at
poor relief doomed for failure. While poor relief functioned as a justification for
the French presence in Indochina, when wielded by Vietnamese intellectuals the
discourse on poverty became a rallying call for patriotism, nationalism, and for
some, anti-colonialism. In the hands of the politically conservative intellectuals
poverty became a problem connected with Vietnam's 'backward' culture and
society. In the 1930s as the issue of poverty became more urgent, Vietnamese
journalists and novelists began to explore critically the impact of poverty on their
society. Literature of this period presented a compelling argument about the
corrosive effect of poverty on Vietnamese society, and it subtly implicated French
colonialism in the cause of poverty. By the late 1930s, left-wing writers took the
discussion further to analyze the causes of poverty. Their writings left no doubt
as to their conviction that colonialism and capitalism were responsible for the
impoverishment of their society.
In examining the various competing discourses on poverty among elite
Vietnamese writers, this dissertation shows the diversity among the elite as well
as the intellectual dynamism of the period as Vietnamese intellectuals grappled
with the global forces of colonialism and capitalism. While Vietnamese
intellectuals exhibited a modernist faith that poverty could be eradicated, and
thought of themselves as modern, their own idealized society, a van minh
(civilized) society was based on Confucian values, such as social harmony and
responsibility.

Some aspects of the Franco-German economic relations between the two world warsWolf, Hans J January 1970 (has links)
From Preface: In this thesis I have aimed at covering a field in Economic History where not many suitable publications are available in English. During the interwar period, the maintenance of peace and harmonious international relations was directly dependent on a reconciliation of the conflicting interests between France and Germany. In studying the economic implications of the Franco-German antagonism, I have tried to throw light upon the crucial role which this relationship played. The Appendix offers a quantitative survey of economic conditions in the two countries and of the relevant production and exchange problems. To assist the reader who is not completely familiar with this period, a brief summary of the relevant conferences, agreements and treaties is also offered in the Appendix, as well as some short biographical notes. I would like to make it clear, however, that this thesis is neither supposed to be a paraphrase of the Appendix, nor a mere treatise on the commercial relations between the two countries concerned. I aimed rather at revealing the forces behind the events and at illustrating how economic problems became quite often subject to political and military considerations. When trying to attain some understanding of Franco-German relations, it seems advisable to look not only at the interbellum period, but in the first instance to become aware of the currents of history which finally led to the two disastrous World Wars.
