Research Abstract |
The purpose of this reserch is to clarify the transformation of French economic relations with its colonies, and the signification of the colonies for French in the structural change of capitalism after the World war II.More concretely, this research aimed at examining the position of the colonies in the process of French political and economic reconstruction. For this examination, we studied the Plan for Modernization in France and the trade relations between Frnace and it a colonies. As a result, we can point out as below. 1.By examinimg the report of the First Plan for Modernization and Equipment (Monnet Plan) drawn up in October 1946, we could know that the Report contained the working details and the abstract of the development plan of Commission on Modernization, and that the colonies are located as the complement of French economie. Moreover, on the baisis of this First Plan, Plan for Modernization of Overseas possessions was published in January 1948. 2.Analysis of the statistics of trade showed that the signification of the colonies for France became more important after the War. France and its overseas possessions formed a close relations of the trade. The share of overseas possessions for French export arrived at 44 percent in 1948 and 35 percent even before the formation of EEC. 3.But we must pay attention to the transition of the center from overseas possessions to European market in French foreign relation after the decision of the liberalization of trade in OEEC in 1949. France almost attained her object of the First Plan by Marshall Aid executed from 1948 and advanced the liberalization of trade within the framework of OEEC.Thus France strengthened the economic relations with European countries.
