Colmar, Matthieu. "Gaullisme et gaullistes en Haute Normandie (1969-1992)." Thesis, Normandie, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018NORMR149/document.
Full textOver the past few years, many works have been done on “French Gaullism” as well as on “partisan gaullists”. Besides the numerous studies on French Général de Gaulle, these works focused mostly on the political party which claimed the political ideas of the man who called to resistance with the “Appeal of 18 June”. What will be primarly explored in this work is the era which followed the Général’s resignation from power on the 27 april 1969, up to the year 1992, which saw, at a national level, the French Maastricht Treaty referendum divide gaullists on the European issue, as well as, at a local level, the election of Antoine Rufenacht as head of region, following another gaullist, Roger Fossé. Our approach here is therefore quite original as it is a territorial study of a political party, and it explores the regional example of Haute-Normandie. As a result, our analysis will combine different scales of observation, from national to municipal, as well as regional, local and district scales. Thus, one of our main goal is to question ourselves on the singularity of the Normandy region, compared to the national standard. A close examination of the regional adherent structures will allow us to illuminate the organisation of a local political party, and to evaluate the possible independence from the national structure. Finally, we will discuss the state of “French Gaullism”, one generation after the retirement of its leader, through the exploration of references to the Général de Gaulle, of the “gaullist” movement itself, as well as of the evolution of its fondamental principles. Furthermore, the emerging of a new french political actor in the mid-1980s, the far-right party “Front National”, forces those who refer as “gaullists” to adapt to this new political polarisation. In order to conduct this study beyond the usual sources, that is to say press articles, rare sources, that have never been used before, will be put under scrutiny. As a result, we will benefit from reports by the « Renseignements Généraux », which are decisive to clearly define what political life means inside a political party, at a local scale. Moreover, privates archives and oral files will allow us to provide a fresh look on the “gaullist” party and its members
Herbinet, Olivier. "Edmond Michelet : itinéraire d'un gaulliste (1899-1970)." Thesis, Bordeaux 3, 2018. http://www.theses.fr/2018BOR30037.
Full textIt is a question of studying the registration in politics of the former Resistance fighter and the transported convict Edmond Michelet (1899-1970) reaching in the political career under the Fourth and the Fifth Republic. Passer-by of the war Gaullism in the Gaullism of opposition then the political Gaullism from the return to the affairs of the State of the general de Gaulle in 1958, Michelet translates its commitment in the service of the Gaullism into narrow link with the guardian face of the leader liberator of France. Thus while putting the degree of filiation, practices and putting in Edmond Michelet's networks with Charles de Gaulle, his associates and his detractors at the top of the power as on the basis of the militant device, arises the interest of our study. This study will emphasize the importance of operational trajectories within political apparatuses and in the Gaullist environment from De Gaulle to G. Pompidou. This is the opportunity to finally question the political style of E. Michelet and the degree of impregnation of the key moments of his life (the Catholic social militants of the inter-war period, the Resistance, the deportation) adapted to the exercise of his political activities (militant and party leader; member of government, etc.)

Full textJean Charbonnel was part of that generation of "young wolves", sponsored by Georges Pompidou, which - from the beginning of the 1960s - embarked on the conquest of those parts of the country that were hostile to Gaullism. That was how Jean Charbonnel succeeded in being elected a "député" in a part of the Corrèze that was "radical-socialiste", in which the initial contacts with local politics were more than difficult. With that victory on which to build, Jean Charbonnel made for himself a real stronghold in the south of the department (the "Pays de Brive") where he became a "conseiller général" (1964-1968), mayor of Brive (1966-1995), the initiator of the first forms of "intercommunalité", and a deputy for a total of fifteen years. With this base of practical experience on the ground, his Gaullism became clearly orientated towards a search for, and the defence of, a better social justice through the realisation of novel mechanisms whose aim was the integration of handicapped schoolchildren, and of young people into the world of work, or through the responsibility that was taken for older members of the community with the construction of "foyers-logements" (sheltered housing). Such local social action was echoed on the national level, particularly when Jean Charbonnel became "Ministre du Développement industriel et scientifique" (1972-1974), within the context of the "affaire Lipp" when he tried to obtain true recognition for the eminently "gaullien" principle of Participation, taking into account the interests of the workers, of the salaried employees and of the management. Jean Charbonnel's political action claimed to be resolutely progressive but above all reformist as it sought to associate the citizen - according to the place that he actually occupied within the Community - with the great reforms of the country. This thesis seeks therefore to comprehend how a Gaullist managed to establish himself in a left-wing area - the "Pays de Brive" -and the way in which his action made of him a left-wing Gaullist or rather a "gaulliste social" because he was intellectually nearer the Right than the Left, and above all because he never sought to break away from mainstream gaullism, by which he was quite different from the left-wing Gaullists

Full textManlio Brosio was the only Italian NATO Secretary General; he was the fourth in charge, from August 1964 through September 1971, his office being one of the longest so far. During Brosio’s seven-year term, the Atlantic Alliance had to face some of the most crucial challenges since its foundation, the first being the withdrawal of the Gaullist France from the military integrated structure, in 1966. Two different processes originated from that moment of potential crisis: the reorganisation and transferral of the NATO Headquarters from Paris to Brussels, and the political rethinking of the Alliance as a whole, through the study which goes under the name of Harmel Report. Projecting the Alliance on the new international framework of improved East-West relations, the Secretary General himself was reflecting upon the key-question “Will NATO survive détente?”; indeed, in his personal diaries (all now published) Brosio revealed his own doubts, fears and sense of inadequacy for the tasks ahead. Having retraced the evolution of Brosio’s political thought and career, the work then focuses on how he approached his difficult position, always honouring his “Atlantic conscience alongside an Italian heart”. Untiring in his work, he steered the Alliance through and out of the potential crisis, always striving to reach consensus in any decision taken during the Council meetings; his seriousness and meticulous method have been widely acknowledged. He finally managed to preserve the fundamental “political ingredient” of the Alliance and to avoid that it “maintain its shell but lose its essence”.

Full textIn the course of ages, owing to changes in cultures and ideas, the political ritual is conveyed through a particular symbolic language. This essay tends to set forth a body of political rites assigned to this essay tends to set forth a body of political rites assigned to outmanoeuvre the parties tricks, to pull the strings of power. This research has been carried out on the basis of a 151 posters visual corpus. In order to bring to sound outcomes, the analysis has been restricted to the main periods of 1946 - 1986 political hostory : the presidential and parliamentary electoral dives. At the time, there is no strict methology allowing the reading, understanding and interpreting of the political poster language. The objectiveness of our undertaking is built upon the implementation of a semantic deciphering pattern. We have made use of for criterion-based patterns which are : sign "reference" the images of the emblem - sign "banner" the discursive components - sign " meeting " the iconic components - sign ""fixing" the iconic and textuel code. The composition of posters is summed up according to the method of the four signs crossing. . . The feeling of symbol is incompatible with the coomon spectator attitude, it requires participating as an actor. Political life is turned into a play by posters influence. The political representation, opera, drama or middle-class farce, is marked by the current process of imbodiness

Full textPost-war Gaullism, often referred to as political Gaullism, cannot but hold our attention because of the quick success of the Rassemblement du Peuple Français and its almost as quick downfall. The phenomenon which took place in such a short period of time urges the historian to analyze how the movement managed to settle locally and what impact it had : this precisely is the subject of our dissertation. The work of the members the Gaullist movement, of its militants and elected members as well as elected counsillors, is closely examined here. In the end, the RPF failed to reach the aim it had set itself, i. E. The fall of the 4th Republic. Yet, the tight organization of its militants led to the development of powerful networks which did prepare Général De Gaulle’s arrival to power, in Seine-banlieue (the Seine department without the City of Paris) as well in the provinces ; it can thus be said that Gaullism of the war period was made to evolve thanks to the Rassemblement ; it laid the foundations of a political culture which experienced numerous developments in the following years

Full textDe Gaulle and the French people : their relationship was profoundly renewed when, on May 29, 1958, French political life toppled over. That day, President of the Republic René Coty – faced with a political class that proved incapable of finding a solution to the bloody Algerian conflict, raging since November 1954 – called upon a "providential man", an illustrious soldier who, in the eyes of the French, had already saved the country : France had been vanquished in 1940, but it was victorious five years later.Hostile to the partisan system that divided the country, General de Gaulle wanted to represent the assembled people. The last President of the Council of the Fourth Republic thus deeply transformed political institutions : the parliamentary Republic turned into a Republic that recognized the primary function of the Head of State. This function was reinforced by the constitutional reform of 1962 and its introduction of direct universal suffrage: under Charles de Gaulle, the partisan Republic was replaced by a "Republic of the citizens", in which the expression of popular sovereignty prevailed.Popular sovereignty in a nation that brings all social classes, all leanings together and is itself at the service of Man and of the world : these concepts were put into practice, words, images in the towns and villages of France, in the course of twenty-six presidential trips to the provinces in metropolitan France. They were key to the "Republic of the citizens" wanted by the General.The relationship between the Head of State and the people who came to these official ceremonies was based on an exchange: the popular presence granted the President of the Republic legitimacy – the head of the executive in turn solicited citizens to obtain information and thoughts on measures that needed to be taken, locally and nationally. Gaullism – based on these regular exchanges in town and hamlet squares, on the constitutional changes instituting the people as the ultimate sovereign and on the frequent use of referendums – served a Republic brought to its fulfillment

Full textRené Capitant (1901-1970) was professor of public law, involved in the Resistance movement during the Second World War, deputy, and Gaullist minister. He bequeaths a constitutional work that has never been subjected to exhaustive legal analysis. Often critical and sometimes precursor, his doctrinal and political writings are of interest as much in the theoretical developments questioning the origin of positive law through its reception by individual consciences as in the practical aspects of the evolution of French regimes. Through a dynamic approach to constitutional law in which constitutional history, institutional practices and philosophical and political doctrines intermingle, René Capitant's constitutional law invites us to go beyond the texts to question the constitutional legitimacy of French democracy
Spire, Kerwin. "Romain Gary écrivain politique." Thesis, Paris 3, 2014. http://www.theses.fr/2014PA030148.
Full textThe novels of Romain Gary echo the events of the 20th Century. None of the great crises of the period is ignored by the author. Gary’s moral conscience was forged by the Second World War and it led him to a philosophy of Gaullism based on a human ideal, to which he always remained faithful. But beyond this matrix the post-war years also shaped his thinking. His diplomatic and literary careers follow a symmetrical path. His fifteen years working for the French Foreign Ministry were the direct inspiration for several of his novels. It is diplomacy which reveals the writer’s intellectual topography. This was not just a product of the trauma of the Shoah and the fraternity of the resistance but was also forged in reaction to Soviet totalitarianism and the resurgence of nationalisms. To explore his diplomatic career is to discover the sources of his novels, to reveal the factual basis of his fiction. Romain Gary made a double usage of contemporary events, first as a diplomat intent on understanding underlying causes, second as a writer painting a picture of the effects. Thus the novel can be seen as a palimpsest, a reworking of the diplomat’s despatch. As this skein is untangled, as diplomacy and literature, history and fiction are teased apart, Gary’s political thinking is revealed in the greatest clarity, complexity, and nuance. As the thread is drawn out, Gary’s novels demonstrate a unity and a coherence both with regard to historical events and to his own personal convictions

Full textThis research is about the institutionnal entourage of Georges Pompidou during his mandates as a Primer Minister (April 1962-July 1968) and as a President of the French Republic (June 1969-April 2th 1974, when he prematurely died). It focuses on two institutions whose organisation, structure and internal functioning have been empirically shaped : the Prime Minister Cabinet and the Secretary-Generalship of the Presidency. It analyses their long-term evolution and the way Georges Pompidou modified them, from both points of view of rupture and continuity. It interrogates the impact of the gaullist legacy and Pompidou's personal influence regarding the global stabilisation of the Fifth Republic's institutions. This research also aims to depict the history of men and women that worked for Pompidou in its civilian and military cabinets, in Matignon and at the Elysee's Secretary-Generalship between 1962 and 1974. A thorough exploration of their professional background, their profile and career allows us to describe the specificities of this political entourage. Furthermore, it contributes to the understanding of the political and administrative high-level servants during the 1960's and the 1970's. Finally, by analysing the relations between Georges Pompidou and his staff, and between this staff and other political circles, we get onto the sensitive question of influence. This research then tries to assess the influence that the advisors may have exerted on their Prime Minister and President, and on the decision-making process
Boivin, Hélène. "Louis Terrenoire, un fidèle à l’ombre du général de Gaulle 1908-1992." Thesis, Sorbonne université, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SORUL105.
Full textGreatly forgotten in the history of Gaullism, Louis Terrenoire is nevertheless one of the most attested representatives of it. Nothing predisposed this Lyonnais, from a modest family, first engaged in the actions of social Catholicism and then Christian trade unionism, to have a political career that was in every respect in the wake of the General. Louis Terrenoire went to Paris in 1932 to join the newspaper “L'aube” launched by Francisque Gay, and made his first contacts with the political circles of Christian Democracy. He stands out above all for his commitment as a journalist in the fight against fascism. Mobolized in 1939, he went into battle with the will to defend the country as well as its republican and christian values. Refusing the armistice, he very early won the ranks of the Resistance, not in response to the Appeal of June 18 that he did not hear but to prolong an antifascist struggle begun in the 1930s. It was during his years of resistance and then in deportation that Louis Terrenoire discovered himself to be a Gaullist and began to build a political identity inseparable from the General. In 1945-1946, he began a parliamentary career under the MRP label. After the break-up of the “loyalty party” with the General, Louis Terrenoire decided to leave him in 1947 to serve General de Gaulle. Beaten in 1951, he became a Member of Parliament again in 1958 and the rest until 1973. He took part in the exercice of power during the Algerian war as Minister of Information, then as Minister Delegate Relations with Parliament from February 1961 to April 1962 and at the same time as spokeman for a General who was very open to debate in the Council of Ministers.This political itinerary is based on an unfailing loyalty to a man- General de Gaulle-, to his ideas and to his work, which makes him a “ baron” apart until his death

Full textStanislas Fumet (1896-1983) was a Catholic intelllectual whose crucial role in many and varied domains is unrecognized. An editor of the prestigious series "Roseau d’Or", founder of the Christian journal Temps Présent, member of the Resistance, Gaullist, broadcaster for the radio station France Culture : none of these facets led to Fumet being in the foregroud of politically committed intellectuals. More than by an absence of fame, this reality can be explained by the supporting (or "ancillary" to use his godson Pierre Manent’s term) role that Fumet played to an intellectual generation marked by Jacques Maritain. Initially this generation’s servant, Fumet gradually became one of its last representatives, taking on a "spiritual magisterium in the temporal" (Jean-Marie Lustiger)

Full textThis dissertation is a biography of French Admiral Georges Thierry d’Argenlieu (1889-1964), whose religious name was Father Louis de la Trinité, of the Order of Discalced Carmelites.After joining the École Navale in 1906, he took part in the campaign in Morocco and served in the Mediterranean during the First World War. After the conflict, he left the Navy and entered the order of the Discalced Carmelite Friars; this was the consequence of a personal evolution that had started before the war. In 1932, he was elected Provincial Superior of the Order. He was one of the main contributors to the renewal of the Order between the wars. He was mobilised in 1939 and captured during the defence of Cherbourg, but he escaped shortly after and joined De Gaulle in London. From London to Dakar and from Gabon to New Caledonia, he held major positions in the Free French Forces. As the first Chancellor of the Order of the Liberation and a close friend of Général De Gaulle, he had a prominent status in the Navy. In August 1945, he was appointed High Commissioner in Indochina. His mandate was marked by the impossibility to reach an agreement with Hô Chi Minh and the beginning of the First Indochina War. He was recalled to France in 1947 and resumed religious life.This dissertation is notably based on Georges d’Argenlieu’s unpublished personal papers; it aims to provide consistency to the itinerary of a complex man who led an uncompromising life. It explores politico-military relations, the role of Christians in secular society, the relations between senior officers and the French Republic as well as the colonial vision and mores of France at the time of the Liberation

Full textFrançois Mitterrand loved history, and history definitely loved Mitterrand, and because of this maybe it is not by chance that he governed the destinies of France at a great turning point in European history. If the German historian Tilo Schabert called him ”le président-philoshophe”, then one might ask what has been the response in front of the Sphynx of History in 1989. Was he for or against the reunification of Germany? Indeed, the status quo of the Cold War and the existence of two Germanys in the heart of Europe suited perfectly for France. The writer François Mauriac famously once said:”I love Germany so much that I want to have two.” A divided Germany has enabled France to consolidate the leadership of West European. With active participation in European integration, a special relationship with Moscow, with its popularity among the Eastern European capitals, and its independence in NATO, France seemed to have everything it takes to be the first power of the Western Europe. To understand it, the diplomacy of Mitterrand must be seen in the context of a changing world, where the status quo was challenged. Starting from this premises we can understand his diplomatic tour in the capitals of the East, the project for the Maastricht Treaty ( with its historic stake - the adoption of a single currency), the ratification of 2+4 treaty consenting to the reunification of Germany, his support for Gorbachev and finally his project for a major pan- European confederation on the mold of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe , echoing the ambition of Charles de Gaulle to build a Europe from the Atlantic to the Urals. In this maze of events the common thread was Mitterrand's a clear insight of the consequences the will follow the reunification. Those who understand everything before others will always be misunderstood by the majority. Mitterrand knew that Germany was a country at risk, especially for the French hegemony and then to European construction, the great European project started since 1945. It is the goal of our research to show the source and the form of Mitterrand's foreign policy toward East Central Europe in the context of the German question, towards a region that once again will become for France a geographic mental map. Mitterrand's diplomatic approach finds itself at a crossroads between a Gaullist approach, a realist one, and the one pursued by Pompidou and Giscard d'Estaing, a constructivist approach. Only through the grid of a realistic - constructivist analysis one can decipher the milestones of its foreign policy regarding the German reunification (2 +4 Treaty in September 1990), the European integration (the stake European Council in Strasbourg in1989) and finally East-Central Europe's post-communist architecture (through project of the pan European confederation he unveiled on 31 December 1989). Only in this way we can understand Mitterrand's desire to accelerate the integration of the European community, the need to find a framework for the peaceful reunification of Germany by anchoring it its Western commitments, and at the same time avoiding the disintegration of East-Central Europe

Full textWith the verification of doctrine coherence of Michel Debré, we observe in the global speech different stage. His thought, principally constitutional and political, is formed in a way liberal and organics. That formation has conducted him to serve a perfect State. He built a governmental doctrine grounded on rationalised parliamentarism where the government governs, the parliament controls and the institutions personifie in a head of state. That paradox for a republican spirit inscribes in a determination to save not the state but a state man : the general de Gaulle. The thought of Michel Debré adjusts oneself to de Gaulle, a thought re-determinates in a direction more national and more normative.

Full textThis thesis addresses general de gaulle's constribution to the reconstruction of europe atter it was politically, economically and morally destroyed innworld war ii. Although the media routinely portray the man as being "anti-european", facts clmearly show that he was the one who actually built europe, particularly between 1958 and 1969. In 1958, contrary to all expectations, general de gaulle chose to implement the treaty of rome, which he had neither negociated nor even signed. He then proved to be the best of europeans, complying with the timetable of the treaty of rome and wrangling the common agricultural policy at the price of a crisi in 1962. De gaulle bravely fought those whom he considered to be "enemies of europe". Twice he opposed britain's entry into the european community ; he creted the fra co-german axis to counter the london-washington axis, and he decided to pull france out of nato (the north atlantic treaty organization). And yet, general de gaulle merely produced a franco-german europe although his dream was to build it from the atlantic to the urals. Today, general de gaulle's concept of the europe of nations remains au inspiration to many european leaders

Full textFrom general de gaulle's appeal of june 18th 1940 to the dismissal of mps of the rpf party in may 1953, antigaullism was a major feature of political life. During the german occupation, lots of feelings became focused on charles de gaulle and war gaullism : an agent of great britain, a salesman of the empire at a discount, a quartermaster sergeant of the jews, the communists, the republican political class. . . Those feelings which did exist within the pro vichy regime and collaboration circles had little influence on french opinion. Although the resistance circles were not free from antigaullism (in london within the giraudist circles or within the internal resistance), others forms of antigaullism appeared after the liberation and more particulary along with the creation of the rpf in avril 1947. Gaullism and its leader became enemies of the republic for much of the political class. The ivth republic was the occasion for a reappraisal of gaullism from an extrem right loyal to marechal petain to the communist party which viewed gaullism and the general as a new form of fascismincluding the sfio, some radical and christian democrat circles which opposed to gaullism an "old fashioned republican" spirit faithful to the traditional parlementary republic

Full textUnknown to a great majority, G. Palewski played a significant role in the French social and political life for about fifty years. He indeed led an enterprising and wide-ranging professional career : Cabinet Head, member of the Free French Forces, RPF activist, minister, deputy, ambassador and President of the Constitutional Council. Born in Paris in 1901, he studied in France and in Oxford as well. In 1924-1925, he was posted to the Field Marshal Lyautey's office in Morocco. He became one of P. Reynaud's assistant in 1928. In 1934 he realized how decisive his meeting with Colonel De Gaulle would be. As a matter of fact, De Gaulle's ideas had such an impact on G. Palewski that he decided to leave P. Renaud at the beginning of 1940. In August the same year, he enlisted in De Gaulle's Free French organisation located in London. He became Cabinet Head of the Chief of the Free French Forces in London, Algiers and Paris. One of the founders of the Rassemblement du Peuple Français in 1947, activist with oratory skills, he was elected deputy in 1951. For a few months in 1955 he came to be minister for nuclear matters in E. Faure's government. From 1957 to 1962, he represented France as an ambassador in Rome. He was once again State Minister for scientific research, nuclear and spatial matters. He completed his political career as President of the Constitutional Council from 1965 to 1974. He was to die in 1984. Famous for his Gaullist commitment, Gaston Palewski was a trustworthy, outgoing, broad-minded modern man. He would be reminded as a man who lived in the shadow of three strong characters of the twentieth century: Field Marshal Lyautey, Paul Reynaud and General de Gaulle
Decherf, Jean-Baptiste. "Romantisme du chef : le rêve de la domination extraordinaire et ses transformations." Paris, Institut d'études politiques, 2008. http://www.theses.fr/2008IEPP0035.
Full textThis work aims, through a study of the romantic cult of great men, to throw light upon the construction of an representation of power whose far reaching effects can be felt even in the works of Max Weber and in the political practice of De Gaulle. The romanticism of the leader commences when the romantic representation of genius as a radically superior being comes to be applied to the great figures of history. The central thesis of the romanticism of the leader lies in a handful of words : because genius is extraordinary, radically "other", its power is also extraordinary, totally estranged from everyday forms of politics. The picture of a magic contact between genius and the masses, suddenly sweeping away all the mediocrity the romantics associate with the quotidian, represents the dream of surpassing the political, of reducing its complexity to a simple surge of shared enthusiasm. By its force of fascination, the dream of the extraordinary survives its creators (Hegel, Carlyle, Michelet, Quinet, Chateaubriand, Stendhal, Hugo, to name but a few) and can take on different shapes. The first is the neoromanticism of the leader, enriched notably by ideas deriving from Nietzsche and the psychology of masses. The second is the sociology of the extraordinary, the concepts of effervescence and charisma (Durkheim and Weber), where the idea of an escape from the quotidian through enthusiasm, though profoundly transformed, is still present. The third is the politics of the extraordinary practiced by leaders who have, unwittingly and in vain, attempted to give reality to this dream

Full textThis study examines the implications of the attachment of film industry to the Ministry of Culture at the beginning of the fifth French Republic. This thesis strives to describe permanents fluctuations of André Malraux's administration between the concern to answer with requirement to the challenges relating to the high quality of the cinematographic production, the need to match the cinema with reasons of national prestige and the necessity to develop a consensual policy able to satisfy miscellaneous stakeholders of the public action. There is no doubt that this last aspect turns out to be crucial for establishing his authority in relation to governmental instability which has continued before 1959 but also because of upheavals provoked by Nouvelle Vague appearance. Although the French intervention model is completely recognized on European scale on this years, some of its options are yet criticized on the national level by a part of critics and young directors close to the magazine Les Cahiers du cinéma. The diversity of full-length movies subsidized by De Gaulle's government doesn't tally with the exclusivity of aesthetic innovation as it existed between 1956 and 1960. The French selection sent at Festival of Cannes is also not much appreciated on this way. The crisis of attendance in the cinemas, which existed all over this period, emphasized more these tenseness. André Malraux is consequently confronted with unprecedented protest movement of his action at the dawn of the second half of the sixties

Full textBy writing a complete history of the First French Army from the Provence landing on August 15, 1944, to the German surrender on May 8, 1945, this dissertation aims to connect the military, diplomatic and political dimensions of this campaign with its colonial, social and cultural aspects. Born in North Africa from the fusion between the Free French and the so called ‘’Armée d’Afrique”, reinforced in metropolitan France with volunteers coming from the Resistance and with conscripts, it was an extremely heterogeneous army. Nevertheless it had to fulfill a challenging set of diplomatic, political and military objectives: to restore the national grandeur four years after the defeat and to get France a seat at the table with other victorious nations, to implement a national unity program and to deal with the aspirations for change coming from French society.In May 1945, these challenges had only been partially overcome. Even if its successes were tarnished by incidents of rape and looting, the French army was victorious on the battlefront and France obtained control of an occupation zone in Germany. Political and military tensions among soldiers decreased while they were fighting a common enemy. But peace brought these tensions back. The Post-War army was only marginally renewed. And as general mobilization was never decreed in metropolitan France, natives and Europeans born in the empire paid the harshest price to deliver the mother country as contestation of the colonial order increased. In 1945, the gap between the nation and its army, and between metropolitan France and its empire was wider than ever

Full textBrought up in a family of staunch believers in the French Republic, brilliant student, Pierre Brossolette was the valedictorian of the ENS in 1922, and then second in the history agregation in 1925. He became a journalist right after his graduation and specialized in international relations, denouncing Mussolinian fascism as of 1927, showing the nazi danger in the 1930s, and being one of the bitterest anti-Munich foes. A socialist in the late 1920s, close to Leon Blum, he was a founding member of the agir (act) wing of the SFIO anti-munichers. He joined the "groupe du Musee de l'homme" in the winter of 1940-1941. And at the end of 1941 he was head of the press and propaganda section of Colonel Remy's cnd when he succeeded in weaving networks that made him one of the best experts of the north zone resistance during the 1941-1942 winter. He was in London from April 28 to June 3 and enrolled under the Gaullist banner. The next summer he carried out his first mission in France, getting "representative" political personalities to rally to fighting France. When he became head of the bloc operations of the BCRA, he was working out of London on relations within the resistance between the interior and exterior groups. From mid-January to mid-April 1943 was his second mission in France, coordinating the north zone resistance and setting up the coordination committee for that zone. Mid-September 1943 he left on a mission to contribute to plugging up the holes in the resistance military and civil organization caused by the spring arrests and to prepare for the renovation of the radio and press at Liberation. He tried to leave France by sea in February 1944. Arrested, finally recognized, and tortured for two and a half days, he committed suicide on March 22, 1944

Full textThe thesis is consecrated to the alsatian public opinion faced with the european integration from 1945 to 1950. Taking into account of the alsatian specific situation, it tries to define the evolution of this alsatian public opinion from the point of view of the various alsatian specific caracteristics. The choice of strasburg, capital of alsace, as the headquarter of the council of europe in february 1949 has given a new dimension to the alsatian public opinion toward the european integration. From that time, the european idea becomes one of the most important actualities in alsace. In the same time, the alsatian sense of identity considered as a positive factor for europe begins to be more and more debated in relation with the european integration. The study shows that the alsatian public opinion expresses its specific situation tied with its double culture and its troubled past due to historic vicissitudes between france and germany. It makes also sure the existence of a very favourable and original european idea in alsace during this period
