De 1944 à 1994, l’Armée de terre a subi d’innombrables transformations et avec elle son corps d’officiers sur qui, pour la première fois, un auteur se penche. Celui-ci est avant tout soucieux de contribuer à l’élaboration des cadres sociaux de la mémoire d’une grande institution de notre pays aussi sa démarche est-elle féconde. La première partie de l’ouvrage met à jour trois thèmes fondamentaux qui ont marqué la politique des personnels notamment du corps des officiers au cours de cette période fertile en rebondissements : retour à la légalité républicaine et ouverture à la citoyenneté, réduction des effectifs, revalorisation de la condition militaire. La seconde partie, commence par évoquer le contexte dans lequel s’opèrent les changements subis par le corps des officiers au cours de ce demi-siècle. Ces transformations décrites avec précision débouchent sur un important travail statistique permettant de mieux évaluer l’évolution du corps des officiers de l’Armée de terre de 1946 à nos jours. Cet essai, qui n’a d’autre but que d’assurer la plus grande transparence d’une institution, devrait permettre aux anciens de resituer...

The period between the close of the Kennedy Round and the opening of the Uruguay Round replaced a decade of fast growth in world output and trade - and of prevailing harmony in trade relations across the Atlantic - with twenty years of currency and trade turmoil and strains between the US and the EC. Giuseppe La Barca provides a comprehensive of these trade developments and the measures adopted by the US and the EC to cope with them; in doing so, he draws a wider picture of international trade policy-making during the period. The aftermath of the Kennedy Round witnessed the undoing of the Bretton Woods regime, but the consequent overheating of the world economy resulted in an acceleration of international trade while settlement in the currency area contributed to the launching of the Tokyo Round negotiations. The first oil shock heralded an unprecedented slump along with a jump in unemployment and inflation rates. The Tokyo Round resulted only in a first step in eliminating non-tariff barriers, leaving contentious issues between the two transatlantic trading partners unsettled. The second oil shock led to growing calls for protectionism and unilateralism particularly in...
